Absolutely proprietary

You’re talking to Microsoft buddy don’t fool yourself

ffs literally every single bullet point applies to me (not that this is news)

Yep it sucks ass

see if the LB is accessible directly via the internet. DNS management at medium sized corpos is usually a clusterfuck so it’s definitely a non-zero chance.

Can confirm lmao

Oh yeah it’s fantastic. All the time spent building those scripts too

It’s been drop dead easy for me too in the past few years. Almost all of my gaming is through Steam and the Proton mode is like, a few extra clicks. It’s gotten to the point that I don’t even need to consult ProtonDB for runtime options now.

For old games there’s Lutris and its install scripts are a fuckton easier than trying to manually wrangle shit together (no matter what OS you’re on) which is even better

In fact, my completely non technical (and, notably, non programmer) friend noticed what my experience is like and as a result decided to dual boot on his new gaming rig. Mind blown. I didn’t even do any evangelising or shilling, I guess the best evangelism is just practicing what you (would) preach

I think dual GPU situations like laptops are sometimes a bit of a pain in the ass though from what I read.

I’m using a GTX 1080 Ti and nvidia’s legendary fuckery hasn’t impacted me

Yeah, exactly. My attitude is you can cook your own damn books, don’t expect me to log anything other than the actual accurate time. Although I work at a company where we have no time tracking at all, good to be free of it

Haha sounds so familiar.

The duality of “we’re a tech company! :D” on the outside and “IT is a good for nothing cost centre >:(“ on the inside

The kind left after “The Sink” incident

To have an easier time with another language (which the first language’s valid syntax is a superset of) which it papers over the faults of. And usually it’s pretty thin paper.

Clownstrife

Funniest thing I’ve read all week, lol

Yeah, I’ve noticed this too

Interesting, self hosting crossplane. What do you use it for?

It is very doable.

Take a look at https://github.com/qdm12/gluetun - it’s what I use for this.

Ahh, woah, I never thought about the huge address space would affect network scans and such.

With NAT on IPv4 I set up port forwarding at my router. Where would I set up the IPv6 equivalent?

I guess assumptions I have at the moment are that my router is a designated appliance for networking concerns and doing all the config there makes sense, and secondly any client device to be possibly misconfigured. Or worse, it was properly configured by me but then the OS vendor pushed an update and now it’s misconfigured again.

Maybe I have Stockholm Syndrome, but I like NAT. It’s like, due to the flaws of IPv4 we basically accidentally get subnets segmented off, no listening ports, have to explicitly configure port forwarding to be able to listen for connections, which kinda implies you know what you’re doing (ssshh don’t talk about UPnP). Accidental security of a default deny policy even without any firewalls configured. Haha. I’m still getting into this stuff though, please feel free to enlighten me

Nah it’s “hehe his handle sounds like bussy”

The real “hate” here is anti-GNOME developer hate lol

That would be cool.

I guess my AMD Bulldozer TV PC is gonna have to go in the ewaste bin though. Its already stretched to its limit running Linux Mint, Firefox, uBlock Origin and Sponsorblock as it is

Yeah, that reminds me. I should take my stuff off it

Take a shot anytime the non technical scrum master/product owner wants to “help” by trying to get someone else involved the moment you mention any kind of detail/problem/thing you’re working on

Sorry about the liver
