  • I’ve talked with military members about fort and base renaming. The names are significant because they are named after (mostly generals) service members who are strongly associated with a set of tactics or strategies that the base specializes in.

    So instead of fort Green beret you’d have fort “founding father of Green beret” or fort “I trailblazed the green beret playbook”

    I still think we need to rename the Confederate name ones because fuck the traitors, but adhering to that naming scheme is important for the armed services.









  • Not sure if anyone else will think it’s good enough but I do.

    Redhat as a company acts like a parasite on open source, producing a product that is garbage which they then charge money for their support plans. Have an issue with their offering? Fuck you. In addition to that, I absolutely beyond a doubt HATE how they do their filesystem and just willy nilly do whatever the fuck they think is best instead of following community established patterns and designs. Top it off with, who was the first to adopt systems? Redhat.

    Stepping away slightly from that, have you dug into ansible’s internal before? Actual fucking idiot decisions. Have an issue with tower or AAP (stupid fucking name) good luck getting it fixed. According to their documentation you can have vaulted vars in a cars file with plaintext cars. According to reality, that’s causes intermittent failures and has for the past 8 years. There have been SEVERAL GitHub issues submitted but it’s still not fixed.

    Fuck redhat and fuck their bullshit like fedora. If I wanted to use a garbage distro, I’d at least want to use one that isn’t pretending to be decent.





  • I won’t say that AI is the greatest thing since sliced bread but it is here and it’s not going back in the bottle. I’m glad to see that we’re at least trying to give it accurate information, instead of “look at all this user data we got from Reddit, let’s have searches go through this stuff first!” Then some kid asks if it’s safe to go running with scissors and the LLM says “yes! It’s perfectly fine to run with sharp objects!”

    The tech kinda really sucks full stop, but it’ll be marginally better if it’s information is at least accurate.
