I’ve been doing this stuff for 30 years. The helpful blog post that took 8 pages of text to explain how to schedule a job just made me angry.
I think I am finally into greybeard territory even though my beard made the change a few years ago. Damn.

‘globohomo bullshit’ doesn’t strike you as a red flag?

Yeah I don’t think that one will go over well with the current wording on their FAQ.
Frequently asked questions What is this? This is a metasearch engine that gets results from other engines, and strips away all of the tracking parameters and Microsoft/globohomo bullshit they add.

Alternatives like Searx or YaCy all fucking sucks so I made my own thing.


Are you a fucking mosquito? Otherwise two weeks is not very long ago.


Lucky.
We have had full snow cover since mid-october here. But it has also been +3-5c most afternoons.
Although early snow often means warmer winter. And I can definitely handle the snow in QC better than the -40s I used to get in AB.

I’m currently living in Canada where the ground has been hidden by snow for a month.
i was bitten by a mosquito outside yesterday.
They are getting stronger.


Switzerland is beautiful, but I have never met a more insular/racist group of people in my travels than in the swiss countryside. Skin colour and language can match, but if your accent is off you might be labelled a dirty foreigner and be treated accordingly.


just wait till you learn about how accurate hot desking software is.
Jesus Christ, if you didn’t think your company knew if you were in one building or another before today, you’re a fucking idiot.


I know this was aimed at someone else. But my response is “Every day.” What is your follow-up question?
I was mostly kidding. But the little bit that bothered me was the idea that ‘it is so simple here are 8 pages to barely scratch the surface.’
cron works fine for me. And if I ever have to work in an environment where I can’t use cron and systemd is available, then of course I will use it. Thus far that has never been the case.
