Ive just started in a government IT role; everything is windows, I use windows myself at home for games, but run WSL for hobby dev, home server management and stuff like that.

This is my first sysadmin role, having come from a Dev background, and administration on windows feels like such a chore. Everything takes ten steps to do, lots of issues, and feels very counter intuitive. I am not enjoying it at all. I suppose actual large scale Linux adminning probably has the same issues and I’m putting it down to lack of experience, but there’s so many small niggly issues that I know I could solve if this was a Linux environment that I can’t due to how windows is set up.

I’m hopefully getting to move into a more hybrid dev/admin role for some web stuff, but I firs thave to convince my boss to let me install WSL so O can have a sane dev environment for web dev.

Fill just enough water in your pot to cover them, and give it a swirl. Empty out the water. Do this two or three times, I usually do three.

I mean, I dont disagree that the concept is insanely idiotic but all they’ve done in the purge is take the concept of a pogrom and applied it to modern day america. The premise isn’t that rediculous. It has happened, in real life. Yeah they’ve leaned into it, and dialed up the crazy fevor a bit, but its not so removed from real life accounts of pogroms.

Oh you fucker, its been over ten years. i just lost The Game.

I suppose it can’t build up enough speed by going in direct line out of the solar system as the falloff would mean there’s not enough “runway” so to speak. But I wonder if you could circle the sun and “tack” like a ship does sailing into the wind and build up more momentum that way?

This is super useful, I was thinking about writing something similar myself recently. Thanks for sharing! Being able to scribe the acfou t clean and start over is very useful. I have 900+ subscriptions that I guess just built up over time. Too many to manually work through and remove the ones I actually dont watch.

You might not be aware but there’s also a fairly content-rich successor project called SpaceStation 14! Its obviously nowhere near as featureful as 13 is, due to lack of development time but has a very active development community around it.

One of the major (imo) improvements is a move to per pixel “real time” movement instead of the tile movement of ss13, it helps make them game feel much more alive and interactive.

Definitely worth a look for fans of ss13, and its also open source and Linux compatible.

I’m just making a guess here, but there could have been more attempts that were nippedl in the bud early enough that we have never heard of them, because the would-be assaains were sloppier and got caught.

From someone who worked as a dev/engineer for a long time dont downplay DevOps as “not really development” most of what standard development is today is wiring together different services and building a UI on it. DevOps is a critical part of the impillar that is software development. Just because you’re not writing the JS that renders the front end doesn’t mean you’re not developing for the product! Infrastructure is as important as UI!

It does completely. Also, its “Milquetoast”. Milktoast is just soggy bread.

Where did they post? This seems unhinged but also very intriguing.
