That would be pretty boss of you. Thanks for being helpful on the past and considering leaving that help available to all!

Reddit announces users need to log in to view posts and comments

Fffffffffff

On a plus side, maybe, if you choose to delete your comments and posts again, albeit slowly, would be to copy/paste the really useful shit to Lemmy. I say this because one unintended (or not) consequence of these actions is that posts from years ago, explaining the solution to a problem that still pops up now and then, doesn’t have the solution most of the time.

I don’t disagree with the sentiment or actions at all, it just sucks when you find someone having the same issue you are, only to learn it’s on reddit and the solution to said problem was deleted.

Wonder if the cables replaced by OP were user-made, not commercial cables, that were our together incorrectly.

Anyone wanna start a sysadmin union? Anyone? Please? My neck is starting to hurt from all the hats they make me wear!

You joke but I read they may get out of this without issue due to a TOS entry about them not being responsible. They’ll still get dragged from shareholders and the government, but only a handful of large companies may be able to recoup some of those damages from the company itself.

It’s like the Sackler’s and the opioid epidemic from a different industry!

I bet the Onion had an article about Crowdstrike offering the world a pizza party and expired Bed Bath & Beyond coupons to say they’re sorry. Real life might be quicker than satire, it seems!

Email!!!

I’ve heard a lot about Rust. I’ll have to look into it. I hate myself so my preferred language is PowerShell.

In the cat and mouse game, the cat can adjust tactics but the mice eventually figure out an alternative route. I’m sure they will find a way with this. Either that or a lot of people will just stop watching YouTube, I’d imagine.

I’d imagine YouTube subtracts the ad length from posted timestamps when clicking a link containing one. But we are taking about Google, soooooo…

Yeah right, we all know you have a single copy of digital items and you can either put it here or there, but not both. That’s why NFTs were such a success! /s

I have saved this reply for the near future when I rebuild my server box to run Linux! Thanks again for your knowledge and information!

I’ll take a look at it, thanks!

You sound like me with Docker. Still unsure how to use that shit but haven’t sat down to really try again, either.

I agree, reverse proxy was also a little mind numbing before I really buckled down and read/watched a bunch of info on it. I learn best by examples and try-fail, but that’s hard to do with live services.

It even did the same thing with enterprise customers. All our machines suddenly started asking us to enable search. Like why do I need another thing when opening the Start Menu and typing is the same fucking thing?? And to fuck with my group policies and undo the customization I had is mega infuriating.

Windows Update Blocker (WuB) is great, has CLI to use in scripts, and effectively turns off Windows updates and prevents the dickhead “Windows update medic” or whatever service from re-enabling updates. No need to modify registry or GPO. When you want to check for updates, you just click a button in WuB! I love it and even use it in my VM for work.

I’ll pass, thanks. Too many streaming platforms already.

I’ll give up on YouTube before I give up my ad blocks or 3rd party apps. Fuck off Google.

Technically, Office doesn’t have auto save enabled unless you sync it with OneDrive or enable it in settings or GPO.

Unless it’s Mass Effect or Saints Row, though, right? Then err body gettin’ fucked!
