Trying to extort the federal government like that seems like a really quick way to end up with your face, phone number and home address in a press release, along with a note from the NSA that basically says “this guy has $33 million in Bitcoin, would be a shame if someone kicked in his door and beat him with a bat until he gave up the keys :)”
Especially when “tmpfiles” is an existing term of art with a very specific meaning
Dry. Fermented. In a burlap sack.

Weirdest episode of binging with babish
Because half the country votes for a party that explicitly says this is a good way to run things, and the other half votes for a party that says it isn’t great, but we shouldn’t really do anything meaningful about it.
Until there is mass “you are all assholes and we demand a more representative electoral system” demonstrations, nothing will change.
Readers may note that this applies to basically every problem in the US right now
Debian. When I have time to mess about with server stuff, I want to be doing the thing I want to do rather than fixing whatever broke in the most recent set of updates
Yeah - the dose is the poison (if you drink enough water it becomes toxic), so if you are talking precisely you need to describe the concentration of a substance in which it is likely lethal to a person, and that’s typically expressed as mass of a substance per mass of bodyweight. A lot of the time you will also see this expressed as an “LD50” value; the dose at which you’d expect 50% of people to die. This accounts for the fact that people’s metabolisms vary quite widely.
~1ng/kg ~= 0.08ug for a typical (~80kg) person, which is a very tiny amount - whatever you are talking about is incredibly toxic.
Being frustrated sure, but being angry at someone because they just don’t have a functional mental model of how the internet works is kinda pointless
Because fundamentally DRM doesn’t work. It’s effectively impossible to stop a determined attacker from gaining access to the information while also making it easy and convenient for the general public to access.
The point of pay walls is to be just annoying enough that 90% of the public go “screw it, have a few dollars”, not to stop the 10% of people who were never going to pay you regardless.
Tangent, but I get irrationally angry when people do “go to site X and search for blah and it’s the 3rd result down” when trying to convey the location of some information on the internet rather than just sharing the goddam URL.

Weren’t the shit balloons retaliation for the south sending balloons to drop propaganda leaflets?
My 10 year prediction - Microsoft does a full transition to a services company:
Only in the same way Australia -> Aussie, or England -> pom. Colloquial terms
The English Language, where the grammar is made up and the rules don’t matter.

Pretty much - I try and time it so the dumps happen ~an hour before restic runs, but it’s not super critical
pg_dumpall on a schedule, then restic to backup the dumps. I’m running Zalando Postgres in kubernetes so scheduled tasks and intercontainer networking is a bit simpler, but should be able to run a sidecar container in your compose file
If you thought the bots were obnoxious now…
I was in the same place as you a few years ago - I liked swarm, and was a bit intimidated by kubernetes - so I’d encourage you to take a stab at kubernetes. Everything you like about swam kubernetes does better, and tools like k3s make it super simple to get set up. There _is& a learning curve, but I’d say it’s worth it. Swarm is more or less a dead end tech at this point, and there are a lot more resources about kubernetes out there.
