ITT I wish those that can recall would name and shame.

Was the transition into management easy for you, or was it a slow acceptance?
Funny thing I’ve been driving for 30+ years, and have never had a formal driving test:
Permit at 15: No tests, only restriction was to have a licensed passenger in-vehicle
License at 16: Had driver’s ed in school, state’s driving test waved, and license transferred to other states without any new driving test
Motorcycle license: Took a safety course while in the military, state added endorsement without any test, which also transferred out-of-state
Heavy vehicles: Trained on military 5-ton/deuce+0.5/Frontloaders/HMMWVs - all kinds of heavy equipment - no formal tests, only unit sign-off (even on civilian roads)
The kicker: I now live in a US state where a driver license is good with no re-testing till age 64
Gonna suck when I actually do have to take a test. Hopefully there will be sane infra to go completely driverless by the time I get that old.
I love it too, I buy some of the wallaby stuff now and again.
Just don’t eat a ton in any given day.
Edit - Oh shit:
In past warnings, the FDA notes: “If you’re 40 or older, eating 2 ounces of black licorice a day for at least two weeks could land you in the hospital with an irregular heart rhythm or arrhythmia.”
Yeah some kind of fucky configuration.
The root is:
Which, if the ubuntu
link is clicked, then drops you into the the real archive root… but the link is “appended” to the new path, but the same link is reproduced in the “new” folder. Click it again, and another segment added to your current path even though you’re in the same root archive, ad nauseam.
I couldn’t find this misconfiguration on stackoverflow, which leads me to believe someone at ubuntu is doing something especially special here.
“Could not fetch embedded watch page”
I don’t use an ide, but I wrote a script that replaces any space I type with four.
I haven’t worked out all the use cases yet, though.
Some thoughts:
Ubuntu, most likely
I’d encourage you to take a look at Linux Mint, it alleviates some of the Ubuntu fuckiness. And if you want to join the “I use arch btw” crowd, maybe checkout EndeavourOS if you’re feeling more brave than just Ubuntu variants (which is built on arch, but makes barrier to entry a little easier).
i9s are the latest hotness but don’t think the price is worth it
Take a look at last generation to soften the blow to your wallet. E.g., instead of looking at a 14900k, look at 13 or even 12 series. In fact, this is a useful strategy all around if you’re being price conscious: go one gen older.
GPU that can support some sort of ML/AI with DisplayPort
Probably going to want to go with a discrete card, rather than just integrated. Other major consideration is going to be nvidia vs AMD, for which you’ll need to decide if CUDA should be part of your calculus or not. I’ll defer to any data science engineers that might wander through this post.
The rest of your reqs pretty much come as regular stock options when building a pc these days. Though another nicety for my latest builds, is multi-gig nics (though 2.5Gb was my ceiling, since you’ll also need the network gear to utilize it). Going multi-gig is nice for pushing around a fuckton of data between machines on my lan (including a NAS).
Very last thing that I’ve found helpful in my last 3 builds spanning 15 years: I use newegg for its reviews of items, specifically so I can search for the term “linux” in any given product’s reviews. Often times I can glean quick insight on how friendly (or not) hardware has been for other’s linux builds.
And I lied, I just remembered about another linux hardware resource: https://linux-hardware.org/?view=search
You can see other people that have built with given hardware. Just remember to do a scan too once your build is up to pay it forward.
Good luck, and remember to have fun!
Boot up from a live cd and go nuts.
not that Netflix has commercials
There’s a tier with commercials for many countries now.
Don’t forget about their outdated-hIpster friend, Brave Chromium.
The one the front (wheel) fell off? Yeah that’s not very typical, I’d like to make that point.
Edit: Annnnd I’m not the first making this reference, lol!
This is a Wendy’s, sir.
I love it when I buy a piece of gear from trade and it’s got a resonator about to pop.
“The @RonDeSantisFL path to the WH was to be bigger than Donald Trump, a problem solver who brought different sides together. Instead he’s running a petty, angry campaign, Ted Cruz without the personality. Why? Because that’s who he is. A small, angry guy who needs attention.”

Get something like splunk to do it. I’m wondering what the rules for this might look like, especially if this was e.g. distributed scraping.
It’s like the Mr. Garrison’s dildo mono-wheel “it” vehicle, it’s fucking you in the ass!

In basic training our barracks would get “white glove” inspections, where the drill instructor would wear a literal white glove and run his finger over surfaces to detect anything that wasn’t clean, dry, and serviceable. And I’m not talking about just the obvious places, but also things like under the benches in the showers, or up and in a wall locker ledge.
The ultimate goal wasn’t to hand out demerits, it was to instill a sense of attention to detail in us. They asked us how could we be trusted to maintain nukes for example, when we failed to even find that stray clump of soap scum and pubes in the shower.
So that’s all to say: If the boeing apparatus is so fucked that doors are falling off their aircraft mid-flight, what the fuck else have they missed?
As soon as I read this I read the rest of your comment in Al Gore’s voice, ca 2k SNL, lol.
