I run UptimeKuma for monitoring a couple of things, but honestly, I’m pretty much my only user and my homelab is independent of the regular home network, so I don’t really care too much. I’ve been considering some simple log monitoring… when I get around to it :-)

His talk on the subject is great, I really enjoyed it and I agree with is take in that it’s the journey, not the destination.

AI-made Vogon poetry… sounds like fun!

Ups, you’re right, the pod bay doors are still closed, my mistake! I’ve fixed it now, give ot a try!

(pod bay doors are still locked, but now the thermostat is set to -5 degrees)

Yeah, I know, I was thinking more along the lines of the Distrowatch popularity ranking of which specific pages get the most hits (and Gemtoo pretty low down these days).

I wonder what the number of users is various distros. I used Gentoo on my desktop around 15-20 years ago and really loved it, but now I prefer vanilla Debian. I think Arch took over a large part of the Gentoo user base.

Can’t wait for the Milwakee vs Dewalt vs Makita exoskeleton discussions.

At this point I find the errors are pretty rare and much prefer self-checkout, mainly because it’s faster, and as you put it, I often don’t care for peopling.

I moved from sysadmin to technical pre-sales a few years ago and I’m happy with the move. Though honestly I enjoyed being a sysadmin as well - from my experiences it’s more the work environment and the collegues than the actual work you do that makes or breaks a job.

Exacty. A calculator is useless if you don’t know how to structure the problem and what and how to calculate it.

Pretty solid for various handicaps and such.

I think creating art is a goal onto itself and it’s something people will do regardless of AI. Like, if I like to write, the act of writing is the important part, more than the end result. Similar for music, movies, etc. For all the ai generated slop that’s out there, there will always be that person who enjoys picking up a paintbrush and going to town.

Most people, both stupid and not, don’t have the faintest understanding of how current AI technologies work.

Yeah, I’ve ran the gamut from Linksys (started with the WRT-54gl, legendary), to TP-Link and Asus, moving to Syonology and finally landing on Ubiquity. I agree - by far the most capable and reliable of all these. Especially since I’ve gotten into setting up a homelab with VLANs and such. The synology has support for this but it’s not the greatest.

One can only hope…
