I second Zoneminder, used it at a job way back in the day and it was solid.

Weekend was good. On Monday I plan to keep healing up from my vasectomy Thursday, planning to work on the 3-4 projects I have assigned at work while listening to The Three Body Problem audiobook from my local library.

Generally I work too much; I keep getting raises but I don't need more money, I need more life.

If you hate bloat you like Slackware. It doesn't assume anything about how you want to use your computer, so it's more painful for a lot of folks. Other distros will try to do things for you and will ultimately end up doing something someone doesn't want. With Slackware you learn a lot and you get a rock-solid system that will do whatever you like, but you have to be willing to manage it.

Not too bad from the accounts I've heard; my wife trained for this before we stopped doing body art. A lot of women get it when their hands shake too badly to apply makeup well.

Not FOSS, but Mega Hit Poker is the one I play.

Brad Pitt is too old now, and not large enough. Henry Cavill.

I have heard this from every conservative I've talked to about that election.

I'll look into that, thanks!

I just don't want to be a windows systems engineer anymore, and I'm having trouble getting interviews for linux administration roles.

For sure, my company is willing to pay for it, I wouldn't be paying for it myself.

I just don't want to work with windows anymore, and every job I get is windows centric; therefore I get a small amount of linux experience on my resume and the cycle continues. I'm contemplating getting the RHCSA and the RHCSE in order to get linux-centric roles (because although I'm down to take a cut in pay and settle for a junior position, most of the jobs available seem to be for senior or mid-level positions).

That's an odd way of pronouncing sudo telinit 0

 

See title; I'm considering it, but the courses bundles are expensive

 

Super stoked about using Piped. I've created an account on piped.video, found a playlist, all that; I can't figure out how to play all the items in the playlist though - I seem to only be able to play them individually. How do I play everything in a playlist without having to select them individually each time? I'm using the browser interface at the moment.

FOS emulation (lemmy.world)

I started a new job as a systems engineer not too long ago and am looking for a way to get comfortable with FOS as I've never had to manage FC switches before. Anyone know of a way to emulate it, or should I just resign myself to buying an old switch on ebay and throwing it in the rack?

So I'm going to be getting a new housemate soon, and they will most likely take the room that's housing my dell r420 and rack. It's currently running proxmox and hosting a jellyfin instance that I and a few friends/family members are using.

I'd like to move the server to another area, but cooling and noise requirements are making this an issue. I was thinking about clustering a bunch or raspberry pi's that I have sitting around to try and come up with something like a replacement, but I can't get my head around moving my storage off local disk to a san that won't have a fibrechannel connection to my compute. Should I be looking at other SBC types, or should I just invest in renovating to build a new suitable spot for my hardware? What would you do?

EDIT: I'm hosting more than jellyfin, but this is the app I'm worried about - everything else can make do with a slower storage-compute connection.
