Nice! I’ve job hopped a few times and tripped my salary in 5 years and am at a unicorn msp with unlimited PTO and management that cares about employees.

I wish I could find a union IT shop, but nothing around that I’ve seen available. Happy to hear my first statement isn’t as universal as my experience suggests!

There are dozens of us (working for MSPs because in house doesn’t pay as well and companies are cheap and want to outsource that cost center)!

I always forget about :wq, mainly because escing out of interactive mode and hitting ZZ is so much quicker.

Fucking Scunthorpes!

I don’t think I’ll ever get a flip phone until they improve the clamshell design. I’ve got a friend who just had one die because their kid (denies, but likely did) closed something between the two halves and the top of the screen shattered and rendered the phone unusable.

She still has hers and has had it for a couple years, but that kind of fragility is a no go for my clumsy and forgetful ass.

I don’t vape nicotine, so those sorts of things are basically out of my reach. I wish I lived in a legal state and I could get liquid refill bottles.

Discarded vapes? The only immediate trip hazard of tripping on discounted vapes would be the mob of people trying to buy them.

Let’s just ask our ol’ buddy Ernst how that goes.

If there was a way I could leverage the unlimited bandwidth/storage as an offsite backup, that would be amazing, but I’m not sure it would be a great idea backing up stuff to a webserver where there best security I can add it via an .htaccess file.

Your off-site backup solution shouldn’t have to care about that level of security because you should be encrypting your backups before they leave your network. Even if you have a solid backup host in the cloud, you still want to encrypt your backup data before you send it to their hosted repo.

Unless your vendor has a reason to read your backups, they shouldn’t be able to.

Look into FileFlows, I used that after my tdarr server shit the bed to act as my conversion utility for my media libraries. Done a very good job of transcoding my Library into a consistent format.

If you have any inclination to use docker, they offer a generator to make the compose file for you

While I see where you’re coming from, I need time to decompress and just do my own shit, so running the fam around and getting needed errands done was just more work vs actually refreshing my mental state

Burnout fucking sucks and getting recharge times stolen absolutely matters.

That’s rough. I took a “mental health” day this week that got turned into a day of running errands, so guess who basically worked all through their mental health day off?

Who doesn’t have multiple TB of videos just laying around?

Lol, whatever helps you cope.

It was really clear that this family is just scamming people left and right!!

Mainly right tho

LOL, you get the award for most uninformed and ignorant comment of the day. Did you get your views on and the history of the Internet from Ben Shapiro or something?

I can think of well over 400 billion reasons why private industry control of the internet infrastructure is a bad idea.

Just be honest with the recruiter that the particular employer is the issue, but you would be open to discussing other opportunities. That doesn’t burn bridges, and it helps them better determine what you’re looking for.

Only for nazis

Oh wow, the trump campaign doing shit it accused the Democrats of doing?!?!?!

I’m 10000% unsurprised.
