Full disclosure: Haven’t read the article yet.

Working in corporate IT, this most likely is targeted toward enterprise customers who either take a long time to roll out OS upgrades or can’t due to technical limitations within their environment. In those cases, paying the cost of extended support is more palatable to troubleshooting or rushing mass OS upgrades. This is a fairly common practice with enterprise software vendors.

Edit: Okay, just skimmed it. Looks like this is actually a new program for non-enterprise consumers, which is interesting. First I’ve heard of that.

I tend to go back and forth between Go and Python. Typically for work stuff I am writing AWS automation utilities though so I’ll opt for Python because Boto3 is lovely. Go is typically for my personal projects.

I’ve also been itching to try my hand at Rust, but haven’t brought myself to start yet.

My SO just had something similar pop up yesterday. She was running into weird errors on her Chromebook, so I had her change her user agent to Chrome on Windows. Everything magically worked. Hmm…

I’m lucky in that my employer went the opposite direction. Downsizing our local office and just letting us all be 100% remote. We’re a geographically distributed group so it doesn’t make sense to enforce office requirements.

Wait. I can automate my meetings too? I dig it.

I recognize the irony of this, but sometimes I like to fall asleep to the No Sleep podcast.

“It has awoken, and it is coming.”

This is why I personally am looking forward to fully self-driving cars. We’re a long way off, but when self-driving cars can completely replace the human element, I think the world will be a much safer place.

As much as a lot of that hate it warranted, I’d say the install location isn’t so much a Teams issue as it is a Windows issue and how it handles user-level vs system-level installs. Obviously still a Microsoft problem, but important to note.

Yeah, I’m kind of torn on this one. On one hand, having a drive replaced for an issue, then having that replacement fail with the same issue (or at least same effect) reeks of problems. That probably warrants merit.

On the other hand, it does show they likely have poor data backup practices if losing a single hard drive is costing them 3TB data loss. Either they were recording a day’s worth of video and lost it, in which case that sucks but it happens, or they had a ton of other data that likely should have already been backed up elsewhere in which case I have little sympathy.

Is it just me or do crabs always look so dainty when they eat?

Ah, neat! Yeah that would work then. I’d hope that your usernames are unique in your self-hosted setup, so that should work just fine. Very nice!

Hmm…this should work but I do have a concern on it based on my experience with AWS. Maybe this is different with minio though.

In AWS, S3 bucket names are globally unique. Not just to your AWS account, but across ALL S3 buckets period. So let’s say you have a username of “test” and use that policy. If that user attempts to create a bucket and that bucket name is taken, well that user is out of luck.

Obviously if minio doesn’t require globally unique bucket names you’re probably fine, but otherwise this could realistically become a problem.

What makes that better is that VS Code is running on Electron, meaning it is running Chromium under the hood. Or at least part of it. Been a while since I read up on it so I can’t remember for certain.

Nah, Aimovig is the first for me. I literally just requested to up the dose like an hour ago, so assuming that goes through hopefully that will completely knock it out from there. If not, I’ve heard good things about Emgality and another one I’m drawing a blank on the name for, so I can always see about revisiting those if needed.

Good deal that the Emgality is working for you!

Maybe that means they can finally tell me where recruiters are getting my personal, non-business gmail address from. I’ve straight up asked recruiters to use another email address I have and asked where they got my gmail from, and nobody can tell me for some reason.

I’d be happy to do so, but I’m not quite sure how to post something to a cat community on Kbin. If you don’t mind giving me a 20 second tutorial, I’d be appreciative! I’ll post to one or two of the cat communities on Lemmy though since I’m here.

Huh, interesting. Not sure why I never thought to try making my own. I might look into that. Appreciate it!

I do take a multivitamin that does have some B vitamins in it.

Err…correction. I did take a multivitamin, but apparently I ran out and never picked up more. Checked after I started typing. So maybe I should see about picking up either B vitamins or multivitamins.
