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)!

Lol, you don’t know me, or that I’ve literally been there.

And this sense of superiority and refusal to understand or empathize is why hundreds of millions don’t listen to you.

Pot and kettle friend.

Do you even know what that life is like? Working yourself to the bone to feed your family and still staring down the barrel of an election that you tangentially know will harm you in some way?

I’ve done 80hr weeks for years, and it fucking sucks. Check your assumptions, because this sense of superiority is why I ignore people like you. I’ve been there, but I still made the time when I had to with shit like absentee voting. Not everyone has that ability, but don’t pretend like that takes away their agency, even if they have little energy to put to it

No matter who they elect things get worse

“Whether I get a minor laceration or I lose my arm, I’m still going to bleed”

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.

You can’t be just randomly that ignorant here, I think

Woods didn’t just randomly become that ignorant, he’s been practicing for well over a decade. He’s professionally ignorant.

I am against defederation in general. I like to be exposed to different opinions and I am fully capable to use my brain to not become an extremist.

Then why the shit are you on an instance that is against all of that lol?

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

It’s James woods, he’s 100% brainworms serious.

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

I think you misspelled “the internet”

Ya got bad hardware friend, the only time I’ve seen a BSOD in the last few years was when something on my work laptop went bad and it had to be replaced. I haven’t seen a BSOD on my personal machine since my last DIMM failure.

I was somewhat horrified at the stuff your mother let you read before I remembered her dirty stuff is under a pen name.

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

Lol, whatever helps you cope.
