mosiacmango , to Sysadmin in VMware customers may stay, but Broadcom could face backlash “for years to come”

ROBO licenses are gone. We saw licensing costs for servers at those sites go up 5x.

We have a few years left on our main clusters licensing, but we are already investigating moving off vmware because we expect more of the same.

mosiacmango , to Do It Yourself in How to clean your flat or house

A 1:1 mix of White vinegar and water is an ancient and cheap cleaner. The smell doesn't linger long at the correct dilution and it kills a whole bunch of things.

mosiacmango , to Star Trek in Star dates – is one day equal to 0,07 SD in TNG?

Stardates should be a standard calendar at least amongst themselves.

mosiacmango , to Seattle in Hundreds of WA students walk off campuses to protest U.S. aid to Israel

Man, imagine thinking that protesting and civic discourse is something you shouldn't be doing in a institute of higher learning.

Dude thinks college is about getting golden check marks instead of learning how to engage with and improve society.

mosiacmango , to U.S. News in FTC bans noncompete agreements for workers

Lina, the FTC chair, is a stone cold anti monopolist motherfucker. She may be the best appointment the Biden admin has made, and has been non stop kicking corporate ass. The FTC isn't winning them all, but they are actually trying to.

I dont think they will be swayed.

mosiacmango , to Seattle in Police Contract Offers Big Raises, No Significant Accountability Improvements - PubliCola

Wasent SPD notable for having the most Jan 6 participants of any precinct in the country?

I think they had like 6 cops either at the rally or breaching the capitol.

I wonder if this is a little “wink wink” to that as a funny little joke.

mosiacmango , to Seattle in Link Light Rail Lynnwood extension opens August 30

Initially it was an ambiguous “Fall 2024” which i took to mean shooting to open before Thanksgiving at best.

Aug 30 is a solid improvement, as is maintaining the 8 min train time table even without the barn across the impassable sea.

mosiacmango , to Sysadmin in Suggestions for cheap enterprise grade hardware to run linux headless.

Your use case sounds like something a nuc or sff from minisforum could handle, but if you want “cheap” and “small enterprise,” both ambiguous terms, the supermicro superservers should fit the bill.

mosiacmango , to Do It Yourself in Deck Sealing Advice

How bad is the “cupping?” Just a bit of give as you walk over it but otherwise level, or literally bowing with no pressure and then really bending if you walk on it?

If it’s the former, I would wait until a few weeks without rain and the seal it, see how it goes. I probally would not remove the board to do both sides as that’s a lot of work for not much gain. Stain is weather proofing, not really structural support. For that you need wood epoxy, which will run a lot more than lumber.

If it’s the latter amount of bowing, probally a full replacement with either deck quailty lumber if she cares, or cheaper, uglier and more weather resistant pressure treated lumber if she doesnt.

You can also try removing a board and flipping it over. It’s likely the other side is not nearly as warped if the bowing isn’t bad. Then flip them all over and seal the “new” top side.

mosiacmango , to Star Trek in New York Times: "Could Trekkies Decide the Election?"

Exaxtly. You can go up to season 3 easily too.

Go watch the “casino in the void” episode of TNG and come back and talk about how much trek sucks now. I personally enjoy the campiness of the episode, but it was played straight, and it was terrible.

mosiacmango , (edited ) to U.S. News in 21 Bodycam Videos Caught the NYPD Wrongly Arresting Black Kids on Halloween. Why Can’t the Public See the Footage?

Its not at all about guesses. The civilain review board watched the footage and confirmed they hit the teenager they were chasing with their cop car, held several unrelated teens at gunpoint, and arrested those unrelated teens unjustifiably. They then recommended the harshest action possible.

The NYPD hand waived it away for 4 of 5 cops, with the 5th only receiving any action because of “swearing.”

How is officially released records about civil rights violations the reporter and his family personally witnessed “a guess?”

We know why the police won’t release the footage. It’s because it proves they act unlawfully. The authors experience, that the article explains in full, explains the “leading question.”

mosiacmango , to U.S. News in 21 Bodycam Videos Caught the NYPD Wrongly Arresting Black Kids on Halloween. Why Can’t the Public See the Footage?

What do you mean? No one is making any guesses.

The author is following up on an instance of police abuse he personally witnessed, was gaslight about, was confirmed to have happened by 21 different pieces of video evidence, and was then swept under the rug by the NYPD.

mosiacmango , (edited ) to Seattle in ‘She Had Limited Value’: Cop Caught on Bodycam Joking, Laughing About Woman Killed by Other Officer

Just to emphasize your point, the guy in this article is the 2nd in command of the seattle police union.

The guy he’s talking to on the phone about how worthless this woman’s life is that a fellow officer just hit and killed? The head of the police union.

Seattle pd has been under a federal consent degree due to racial policing and unwarranted violence for over a decade for context. They also made the news recently for illegally hanging a trump 2020 flag in the same break room where they had trophies from george Floyd protests displayed. Of course no one was reprimanded.

Real good people.

mosiacmango , (edited ) to Seattle in WA just dodged a bullet-train boondoggle

As i understand it, we have 70mph trains now. This guy’s group is proposing we spend a 10s of billions straightening out current sharp curves so we can go up to 110mph rail. Then, we run those trains way more often than we currently do. So it would take 2.5hrs to Portland instead of the 3.5hrs now, but if ran every 2 hours it would be useful and cheaper than spending 100billion on a separated track bullet train that did portland in 1hr.

Personally, based on taking the current sea+pdx amway train and being sidelined for at least 30min total for freight leasing to a 4+ trip, I think we should do both. Start work on the bullet train and correct the current one. Then we can have a good and excellent option that connect the region, and long term, the bullet train can connect to California’s network to form a pacific line.

My bad. For some reason I thought this was more Sodo, near the stadiums.
