It’s quite easy after you learn engineering-level math. It would still require some paper and patience, but it’s not hard.

Only something around 5% of the people go there, but it’s a matter of going there, not being a genius.

So, you need a unix time value followed by 000?

That first part you can calculate with date +%s -d '2024-07-02 12:00'.

That’s just sloppiness.

The information that familiarity gives you is “WTF does this field means”, and it’s the only thing that’s actually there. How you get a value and how a value is formatted are things no amount of expertise will save you from having to tell the computer, and thus you can’t just forget about.

(And let me guess, the software recommended install is a docker image?)

It is on the sense that Windows admins are the ones that like to buy this kind of shit and use it. It’s not on the sense that Windows was broken somehow.

Well, “don’t have self-upgrading shit on your production environment” also applies.

As in “if you brought something like this, there’s a problem with you”.

No, please, call everything AI.

Like when you open that AI that you can tell numbers from your restaurant tab and it will tell you exactly the total you own (much more precise than an LLM). Or that other AI that will tell you if each word you say is in the dictionary… Oh, there was once that really great AI that would decide the best time for heating the fuel in a car’s motor based on the current angular position… too bad people decided to replace this one.

Interesting, yep, passwd fails for me too.

On the website:

/etc/password

Let’s see.

EDIT: Well, maybe the Cloudfare filters are region-dependent.

There was a ridiculous, completely unbalanced version they published just after Alpha Centauri where the most powerful unit was a van-looking ecoterrorism thing that transformed everything around it into forest.

They could make a sequel to that one instead.

I’m just not sure what the middle guy would be saying

“I hate inheritance! I hate inheritance! I hate inheritance! I hate inheritance!”

But well, inheritance goes brrrrrr.

“Log” is the name of the place you write your tracing information into.

Let me introduce you to syslogd.

But well, it’s probably overkill, and you almost certainly just need to log on a shared volume.

There’s a wall of text apologizing and denying the China’s genocides in a reply. That one didn’t wake the mod up.

At least it’s a more or less comprehensive list. Made me notice that I forgot about one, and there are at least 3 major ones ongoing.

The sheer number of people that do not expect a joke on this community… (Really, if you are trying to learn how to program pay attention to the one without the Humor on the name, not here.)

Well, I guess nobody expects.

That *++ operator from C is indeed confusing.

Reminds me of the goes-to operator: --> that you can use as:

while(i --> 0) {

There isn’t any reason for a site to limit the lifetime of most cookies. I have no idea why that field isn’t optional.

Get an extension that will erase the cookies that you don’t care about, do not abide by everything anybody on the web asks you for. And yeah, get an ad-blocker.

Hum, no. The last thing I need on the world is a piece of non-working hard to maintain software.

I’d write something before trying Nextcloud again.

Personally, I’d really like if it could have different users on its management interface, with their own file shares.

It’s understandable why they don’t bother, but I would like to share my NAS without running several instances.

I’ll second people here in pointing that you are better allowing calls from your family during the “Do Not Disturb” than trying to set-up things not to call you during that time. Your phone almost certainly has a setting that allows “favorite contacts” or something like it.

It has a better configuration orthogonality :)

Yeah, that’s not a good reason.

It’s much easier to authorize a key than to input your password on every kind of interaction.
