i have not. all my raspberry pi projects start with 'i'll definitely finish the project i've set out to do this time', and end with 'ah, oh well'.

Netboot is kind of a pain in the neck IME. But I have very limited experience with it

1. i assume netboot is magic and that's beautiful

Why would you need to netboot them? I think it's likely depending on the size of your cluster you could just script up an install process and only just install kubernetes on them

Also consider this an open offer for me to give you my Raspberry Pis for free. I think they would be better suited in your hands than in mine!

and he keeps winning lmao

crazy that people on the rug pull website got rug pulled

Welcome to bug net. Welcome. You can do anything with bug net.

thanks

who’s your favorite final fantasy character and why is it butt strife

YESSSSS!!!

YESSSSS

:(

Big fan of requiem for a dream are you?

of course i do!

"butt to butt" extension? i only know the cloud to butt extension. have had it installed 1000000 years

i don't do anything with all the time i save

but it's yours to waste as you please, instead of wasting it by jumping through GUI hoops

that's the real schmeckledorf

i want to emphasize i'm joking about the elitism, and i've relied on gui tools. and the command line suffers from so much suck. and i don't do anything with all the time i save

but i spent a lot of time wondering "how do people program with gui tools" and i think i assumed they were using integrated terminals for the most part

And the fucked up thing is he's genuinely much better than he used to be.

It's so frustrating to see The Most Important Guy In Linux behave with the same degree of maturity I would expect from tilted teenage gamers.

Every month I see Linus Torvalds constantly shedding credibility for no reason whatsoever. Calling someone a "paid actor" is pretty demeriting, dude!

This whole brouhaha is pretty disappointing. If they want to conflate individuals with their government, then every american maintainer should be removed as well, since their tax dollars fund US imperialism. Linus should clarify what specific sanction/rule/whatever led to their removal, as the blog author correctly points out. Linus's obscurantism is just throwing fuel on the fire.

since we're sharing gripes we have with matrix and/or element, i'll share mine:

• editing messages is completely unreliable. i'll send a message on my computer, realise i did a oopsie and edit it out of the message, then later log in with my phone and see the oopsie is still there. i have no idea if the person i messaged sees the edited message or not.

• messages become stuck. i'll infodump on someone, then one of the messages just randomly becomes attached at the end of the log. i have to close element and reopen it, and ultimately i'm left wondering if the message got sent correctly in the first place.

• you have to be a rocket scientist to figure out how to log out. it'll pester you about key backups, and even when you've done that, it'll still warn you that you're about to lose all your messages.

  • the whole encryption thing is of dubious value. the team and leadership don't have the discipline to build a truly secure messaging app, and yet their insistence on pretending to build one hurts usability and causes issues with room states or whatever.

• they added a colourblind mode, which is theoretically good, but there is no non-colourblind mode, and it looks fuckugly. this primarily affects name colours (and not things where colours are used to convey meaning, like red for dangerous actions, etc.), so all they've done is make it look jarring for the rest of us. this feels like it was done to tick off a point on a compliance checklist, rather than to actually improve the user experience for colourblind people. (i'm open to the possibility i'm wrong on this one)

• search is completely broken in encrypted rooms.

• synchronising takes anywhere from a microsecond to several minutes where it just spins and does nothing.

• you cannot ignore invites. i sometimes get messaged by people i don't know, and don't wish to signal that i rejected their invite to, and the invite will just be stuck there, with a notification badge, for all eternity, until i relent and reject it. i wish for the ability to prevent invites on the server-side, which i'm told there is no reason it can't be done.

  • this recently came back to bite the ceo of element when he was invited to a room named 'CHILD PORN' while giving a demo. maybe we'll finally have the option soon.

• rooms get stuck in the 'has unread messages' state for seemingly no reason. i'm in such a room right now, and it still persists in that state even when i click the 'mark all messages as read' button. for some reason it's only stuck like this in the iOS app.

• the IRC bridges only go one way, where you can use matrix to join IRC channels. i want to allow IRC users to join my matrix channel, so they can pester me about postmill without having to sign up for yet another service.

• 🔑 Unable to decrypt message

For me, Matrix (or I guess Element) really takes a long time to sync all my chatrooms when I login from a new browser. Not sure if it's just because the server I'm in is shit, and I'm leaning with that because I've been unable to use my Matrix for several days now due to the server itself being down even though the Element client is up (I guess u/emma is wondering now what happened with my testing of her new commits to an experimental branch of Postmill lol)

Servers should be servers!

This tbh, which is why I call them "guilds" instead (which is the original term anyway before Discord expanded out of its gaming niche)

libera.chat's ircd has implemented some of the IRCv3 standard, but funnily despite being the dominant IRC network it's still lacking compared to say tildeverse's IRC which has chat history for example (also from IRCv3)...

I was under the impression that it wasn't out yet, I didn't even know I could use it
