The shit about telling her that she tries to be funny because she doesn’t have any other skills. Wow, that’s completely fucked up. I couldn’t even imagine someone close to me saying something like that let alone someone who has direct authority over me.
Thing is though, if that is true where comedy is one of her strongest aspects, what’s wrong with that? She was obviously very fun and charismatic to get noticed by them in the first place, in my opinion people should be put in roles that best suit them and can show off their talents rather then putting them in roles that almost directly set them up for failure. In the videos I saw her in I honestly thought she was very funny and likeable.
Sounds like they needed a zoomer to help liven up the vibe but weren’t willing to stop shitty traditionalist work environment that zoomers all around the world are starting to wise up and stand up to.
As much as people want to see (maybe not so much now) LTT as a progressive company, this shit just makes it obvious they are just playing the same capitalist game as every other huge company in the world.
Good job LTT, you managed to go from a home-grown and likeable team to a giant faceless corporation that plays the same game as all of the other big dogs and act just as terrible. Everything your company stood for when it started has been completely shit on and thrown in the dumpster.
Why is it that when companies start making good money, increasing that cash flow becomes the sole focus of all daily operations and and values fall to the wayside? Honestly thought shit like this would be better in Canada than US 😂😂
pfSense is indeed fantastic. The best part about it is you can install it on pretty much anything, as long as you have a couple reasonably fast network interfaces and an okay-ish processor depending on the network load it will just work. Also has OpenVPN server baked in which is pretty cool
I love my Microtik hEX S. It takes a minute to get used to the menus, but I really like how everything is laid out and managing using winbox. For 70 bucks it has a hell of a lot of features.
Before that I used a Ubiquiti Edgerouter X which I liked pretty well but I was not a fan of the web interface, it felt very dated; I also had issues with certain firmware updates that made the device pretty unstable. Eventually it kind of just died so I replaced it with this. I think I paid $50 for the ER-X, definitely recommend spending a little more for the hEX S.
One thing the hEX S can not do (at least that I have found) that the ER-X can that I care about is running a MDNS repeater. I have a couple subnets including one for IoT devices so this is necessary, as a slightly jank solution I ended up spinning up an Ubuntu server VM with separate NICs on the subnets I wanted to repeat between and running this binary to do the deed: https://github.com/geekman/mdns-repeater - if anyone knows of a better solution plz let me know.
Very impressive. I gotta ask, how is this feasible cost-wise? Mostly as in licensing for vshpere. I know you can get pretty far in windows server with evaluation keys, butI run an ESXi server on eval mode cuz I’m cheap and have to reset the license every 90 days with some commands and reboot 😅
What is the scale of your network, like is this all just in your house?
I run one main hypervisor with a bunch of different Ubuntu server VMs that I spin up as I mess with different things. I’m old-school so I am not a fan of cloud computing or even docker. Services I host that I use the most are NAS (samba), plex, pi-hole, dokuwiki (huge documentation nerd), and zoneminder which is a great open-source security cam software.
All of my servers are named after characters from the Dragon Ball universe.
Don’t recommend doing an ‘obscured’ naming scheme, hate having to refer to a spreadsheet to know what server does what because I tend to spin up a lot of random stuff. Highly recommend using functional names that are easy for your brain to remember, like an acronym for whatever service or types of services it’s running.
+1 for KeePass/KeePassXC. Love that you just get a password database file and it’s up to you to secure it. I also sync through drive for easy access and use KeePassDX for Android which makes the transition between devices a breeze. Having fingerprint unlock for my passwords on my phone is pretty cash. On my desktop I set up KeePassXC to auto-type my credentials into almost everything I use so I can use a hotkey to log in. Works with any program that you can match a window title to (or URL for websites) which is basically everything. I even have mine set up to enter SSH credentials after I connect in windows terminal using “SSH user@server”.
When subs started blacking out and the only posts I were seeing on my feed were from r/hamsters, I cut the chord without looking back. My friends have all tried to find workarounds to be able to use reddit without official means like using apps that get the pass for accessibility and I’m just thinking “imagine going out of your way just to access reddit” 😂
The only subreddits I cared about were very few at that point with how shitty reddit had gotten as a whole, so it wasn’t hard.
Absolutely. At work I realized that if I have paragraphs in emails most people will just read the first sentence and ignore the rest. I have resorted to breaking paragraphs in to very easy to follow bulleted lists and that seems to help a little bit.
I think the most common reason for this is that it forces people to go out of their routine/comfort zone to understand something, which many people aren’t willing to do, either consciously or subconsciously.
