I'm helping I promise!
  • I got bitten on my head when rough-housing with the dog. She lunged like a wound-up bonehead, I ducked, my head bled from a chippy tooth she has. When I lose my hair I'm gonna have to explain the scar and get teased all over again.

    (Doggy's fine. We comforted her after the ensuing confusion and she still seems to think I'm awesome despite scaring her so.)

  • Weird how that's never been the case for many of my family in the 40 years I've known us to keep cats.

    My sister runs a vet hospital. Last time I checked the prevailing wisdom was "yeah of course you'll have to trim them because there's nothing inside that'll provide the same wearing action and keep them short otherwise" but I can ask again if need be.

    Where'd you hear such crazy ideas?

  • The DNC is the only reason you're not currently enjoying a second-term Sanders and a sane Supreme Court.
  • I love how the same people who bitch about swapping out Bernie Sanders for being too old are the same ones bitching about not swapping out Joe Biden.

    Look. Figure out his age and get the Harris/Ocasio-Cortez government in after the election when the latter half can assume the VP spot for the first of her 4 terms. No one has any illusions about who's gonna be in power after this is done, which is why the fat, old, rich, lazy, white, men are whipping their moron followers into a frenzy to prevent this regime change.

  • Air Canada customers kicked off plane for refusing vomit-covered seat

    Pay-wall link: https://globalnews.ca/news/9938774/air-canada-vomit-seat-passenger-apology/

    Air Canada has apologized to customers who were allegedly escorted off a plane for refusing to sit in a chair covered with vomit for the duration of their over four-hour flight.

    The airline issued a statement after a viral Facebook post claimed two as-yet unidentified female flyers were told there was nothing to be done about the visible vomit on their soiled seats.

    Oh! AirCanada!

    Ah, RedHat (rpmdb failure)

    We've been using Yum (and now its "differenter name is betterer" dnf) for what, 20 years?

    error: rpmdb: BDB0113 Thread/process 13664/139968089683776 failed: BDB1507 Thread died in Berkeley DB library error: db5 error(-30973) from dbenv->failchk: BDB0087 DB_RUNRECOVERY: Fatal error, run database recovery error: cannot open Packages index using db5 - (-30973) error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

    You think we'll ever get someone with a clue to fix this? Will RedHat going all IBM about source code help?

    Screen width and web dev

    Okay, so what's with Gitlab and ServiceNow getting so fat on whitespace that they no longer fit in half a 1920x1200 screen properly?

    What's the standard width that actual professional webdevs are building toward? Is there a standard, or like app dependendencies are they back to pre-y2k "moar moar nom nom" methodologies?

    Where's the "Did MSFT sharepoint just go down again today" posting space?

    Look. It happens a few times a week, where reps in 3 time-zones will be fucked by an interruption to azure services like o341 or sharepoint (we don't do VMs in azure; not secure enough).

    I'm used to shadenfreuding Reddit over that, or at least finding it's not just our company firewall and VPN taking the Proverbial.

    Is there a sub I can join to get the topical junk like that? I'm too indolent - like a fox! - to go to twitter (or ideally mastodon) for a more suitable location; but will I find it there if I do? Can it be here too?

    #174 Fedora Linux With The Project Leader | Matthew Miller, in which RedHat stabbing the GPL in the back may or may not affect Fedora

    I didn't find this yet, but please downvote to hell itself and drop a link to the proper prior post in comments if you find it.

    In here, eventually, are some comments from the Fedora project leader about how RHEL trying to kill open access to source and packaging source code is potentially going to affect Fedora, RedHat's ginger adopted stepchild which it usually overlooks.

    I must say there's a LOT to wait through and one of them has a mic with a bad level at times, and I didn't sit all the way through. Tell me if I've been scammed, but I thought this may have value and I'm hoping to hear confirmation of that too.

    Enjoy? Or flame me. Happy Friday.
