Look, I'd call it fair if the Christian side had the same level applied to it.
I want no religion in my politics thanks. Full stop. Even handed.
I mean to say, once I'm home I'm watching this with headphones and absolute attention haha.
I was going to comment in the thread "what YouTuber don't you watch any more" and this I considered putting as one because they left on such a high note. My favourite is the Jackie Chan. I've rewatched that at least 3 or 4 times to share to about anyone who wants to sit down.
Literally only came to the comments here to say this. I almost expected there to be a recipe for some dish by the amount of waffle.
We looked at the results from 15,400 psychology undergraduates at one Australian university over eight years (2011–19), and across three campuses.
It's the same course. It's there in the article.
Yes, "them" was meant to identify my person. I know without the pokies another addiction probably would have been in its place, it's just I can't help but wonder how many other addictions can lose tens of thousands of dollars in a weekend bender.
It's horrible, but after 12 months of this I sometimes find myself thinking if suicide would have been kinder to the spouse and the rest.
Mostly I wish the mental health route was just easier. Nearly nobody likes to talk about it since it is seen like a failing of the character, not a health issue like a virus. Don't dare say anything at work. The GP simply says "well don't do that then". And friends evaporate at the mention of it. Family are often the cause of it.
Though I agree, you're trading problems: https://www.forbes.com/2009/05/09/japan-downsize-mizhuho-merger-zombies-tokyo-dispatch.html
The youth can't get jobs because the positions are filled by entrenched creating this "unless you're the cream of the crop you won't get a decent job" permiating from school cumulating into your ranking at education all the way through to graduating in university where only the top cream get reasonable jobs, and many don't. Even that doesn't even start to scratch the surface since there's the aging population, negative population growth requiring less "low skill jobs" like trades in construction...
My point is, I wouldn't want to replicate that either.
Currently struggling with someone close and their gambling addiction. I'm too biased to have a fair opinion here, but I frankly think Japan has a better no gambling policy. Sure you can still do it, with extra steps, but fuck, gun laws fixed mass shootings, and anti-gambling laws would reduce financial suicide.
The problem with my close relative is that the gambling problem is their coping mechanism for a bigger mental health issue, but convincing a doctor that there's a problem is fucking hard.
So they get upset, throw a tantrum, storm the pokies and try to end it all a spin at a time. All because 10 years ago they would do it with $200 and have a good laugh about it either way and walk out. But the inhibition is gone.
So we've banned them from the pubs and clubs, but there's always somewhere else they can go.
Can't get help, can't block the financial suicide. And I'm not a relative and their family is part of the core issue so no help there.
Anyway thanks for making it so hard Australia. Why not make it even bigger.
Day9. Though I just rewatched a funday Monday from episode 200 or 300 and it was just as amazing and fun as it was back over a decade ago.
I watched newer stuff he still seems to be a great guy.
Sorry to clarify: updates come as security or as feature updates. If I've already got a standard operating environment (SOE) with all the features I/staff need to do work, I don't need new features.
I then have to watch cves with my cve trackers to know when software updates are needed and all devices with those software get updated and the SOE is updated.
I can go on a rant about how bad the Linux has recently made my life as someone's policy is that any Linux bug might be a security vulnerability and therefore I now have infinite noise in my cve feed, which in turn is making decisions on how to mitigate security issues hard, but that is beyond this discussion.
So in short I'm only talking about when you update, updating only security fixes, not the software and features. Live patching security vulnerabilities is pretty much free low effort, low impact, and in my personal opinion, absolutely critical. But software features patching can be disruptive, leaves little to be gained, and really only should be driven for a request to need that feature at which point it would also include an update to the SOE.
Inertia is just a sign of maturity. It's fine. Nothing wrong with it. Especially when the new stuff is happening along side it. In 10 years there may be people asking why you're using arch or nix, when whatever new thing is superior. But it'll just be proof that nix can run in production for 10+ years.
They're their own certificate authority and they let their intermediaries expire too. It's partially automated they just don't monitor it. Similar to when your certbot reports it couldn't renew because of whatever reason, maybe dns validation failure or whatever. It usually tells you like 30-60 days before expiry and there's lots of time.
Microsoft has both the tools and knowledge and still doesn't get them all. Every year. One time it blocked mfa and login services. Sometimes it's just teams. It's like they just figured instead of staff monitoring they figure user feedback like their insider program is just cheaper.
Is that the one where you start with a stealth mission that never appears again in the game? It acts as a mandatory tutorial and makes the whole thing unreplayable because of its heavy handed enforcement? If I'm right, this game is a really good minor evolution of the original for exactly one play through. However I wanted to enjoy it a second time a few times but never got through the intro. Hmm exactly how I'd describe metal gear solid 5. I've got great memories just can't revisit it.
Yeah I have constant crashes back to login screen but never have I seen a kernel panic except before a system boots. Mm a few exceptions
They probably have been using it for years, and for the last more then a decade I've been using Ubuntu as my main Linux distribution since I have work to do and I'll get to doing work faster in ubuntu than any other distribution.
Why did I start with Ubuntu? 10+ years ago Ubuntu was lightyears ahead for community support for issues. Again, I had work to do, I wasn't hobbyist playing "fuck windows".
In fact look at things like ROS where you can get going with "apt install ros-noetic-desktop" and now you can build your robotics stuff instantly. Every dependency to start and all the other tooling is there too. Sure a bunch of people would now say "use nix" but my autonomous robotics project doesn't care I am trying to get lidar, camera, motors, and SLAM algorithms to work. I don't want to care or think about compiling ROS for some arch distribution.
I won't say I don't dabble with other distributions but if I've got work to do, I'm going to use the tools I already know better than the back of my hand. And at the time, when selecting these tools, Ubuntu had it answered and is stable enough to have been unchanging for basically a decade.
Oh and if I needed to, I could pay and get support so the CEO can hear that risk is gone too (despite almost every other vendor we pay never actually resolving a issue before we find and fix it.. Though I do like also being able to say "we have raised a ticket with vendor x and am waiting on a reply").
From my perspective, if used for work, automatic security updates should be mandatory. Linux is damn impressive with live patch. With thousands or even tens of thousands of endpoints, it's negligent to not patch.
Features? Don't care. But security updates are essential in a large organisation.
The worst part of the Linux fan base is the users who hate forced updates, and also don't believe in AV. Ok on your home network that's not very risky compared to a corp network with a million student and staff personal information often with byo devices only a network segment away and APT groups targeting you because they know your reputation is worth something to ransom.
That's another cool shot thanks!
