There are a few voices included with pied which is why I suggested it.



He goes (or went) regularly to hunt. Not sure whether he’ll continue that with his current stance.


There is also West Coast forestry which is going to nosedive as we destroy most of the trees in BC as climate change burns and floods through the rest.




Start with a simple, basic service. Think of something like a web server or ntp. Understand how these services affect your environment with respect to security, performance, availability, maintenance, backups, other services, firewalls, routing, DNS, monitoring and notification, documentation, change control, etc. Those are the hard parts of hosting and if you find ways to be effective with a simple service the others will be less daunting.




The justification for the students removal was some simple construction tools. They could have just asked to have those removed instead of routing the students.


Exactly. The licensing and sublicensing structures in TV and film are way more complicated than in video games. They also intentionally license for relatively short durations for tax reasons and other corporate considerations that have nothing to do with the end viewer or consumer.


I know it’s hard to hear because sometimes we are so passionate about these things, but it’s okay to have to wait for support on an unsupported platform. Having to wait a week is, in fact, incredibly fortunate. Consider how long it takes to get mac or Linux support on many PC games. A week? We’re laughing.

And if the sales figures are bumped in the first week? Let’s try to understand why it’s bad that developers, publishers, and those other middle-men get paid for their work. Not all games are wildly successful. Most aren’t. And evil Nintendo making more money… Well, if they don’t make money you don’t get any games. And consider that this is a platform which for the most part has avoided sinking into shady and unethical loot box practices. You can fault Nintendo for a lot, but from their perspective, free 0-day access to their games is an existential crisis.


This is a great point and yuzu may get burned for it. Hopefully, it’s not lost on developers of future emulators.


Advice on encrypted storage
I currently have a storage server with the following config. Multiple raid6 volumes (mdadm) -> aggregated into a lvm volume group -> lvm volumes -> encrypted with luks1 -> (no partitioning) xfs file systems mounted and used by the os I have the following criteria: I want to keep software raid (mdadm) with multiple raid sets, xfs, and lvm. I don't mind using 2fa, but I don't want to just store my secret keys on a dongle attached to my PC because that seems to defeat the point of encryption at rest. My questions: 1. Is there a better way to encrypt my data at rest? 2. Is there a better layer at which to apply the encryption? I'm mostly unhappy with luks1 over a whole lvm volume and looking for alternatives. -- Thank you everyone for these great responses! I'll be looking into these ideas :)

I predict this standard will die the way of Flash and Silverlight. If it makes the web more fragile and less accessible it will fail.
