  • Depends on what shift I’m working. Day shift I’ll shower at night because I don’t have time in the morning. Night shift I’ll shower in the morning.

    I definitely prefer showering in the morning, (I also prefer night shift) a good shower just generally feels like a good start to the day. It helps me wake up and gives me time to mentally prepare for the day.










  • I’m far from an expert and have never setup borg, but I see some possible problems with that config, though I don’t think I see anything that would cause it fail.

    • In the environment section of borg, borgmatic, and borgweb, the “BORG_PASSPHRASE” variable is used inconsitently, it either needs to be uncommented in borg or commented out in borgmatic and borgweb.

    • Networks: having a single “backup_net” network is less than ideal from a security standpoint. Nginx should probably be in it’s own network (an ipvlan or macvlan network) in addition to the backup_net. backup_net should be isolated to the host that are running borg, while any communication into borg should be routed through nginx on its ip.




  • While the term “duct tape” does commonly refer to both the (usually) grey fabric based tape and the aluminum foil based tape used in duct work, technically only the aluminum tape is duct tape.

    The proper term for the fabric based tape is actually duck tape as it was originally made from cotton duck, which is a durable cotton weave similar to denim or canvas that can be easily made water resistant by impregnating it with wax. It was invented during WWII and was used to seal ammo cans. It’s also not particularly resistant to extreme temperatures nor is it air tight, and is kind of useless when it comes to duct work.

    Duck Tape is also a name brand for both duck tape and duct tape.


  • I know it’s almost two weeks later, but I’m also seeing this issue. My experience matches the others reported here.

    After I post a comment/reply I get a slightly shrunken window with black borders.

    Additionally, some of the UI elements look slightly washed out in color.

    It’s almost like the animation for returning from the reply screen never fully finishes.

  • The communities of enthusiasts, purists, and OSS advocates, I think would push back hard against any enshitification. And the license models would allow those same people to revert any changes made by moneyed interests by simply forking the software and making it better.

    You already kind of have examples of that happening. RHEL and SUSE are both owned by corporate interests. Both have open source alternatives both upstream and downstream of them. History has already shown that when either do shitty things, people push back, and if that push back fails they fork it and fix it themselves.
