I interviewed a few years back for a fax company. It's insane how many business still use faxes, especially in the medical field.

Are you saying the PBX software doesn't support faxes, or that if you hook up an old Fax Modem, the compression kills the data signal?

I haven't had to touch Server since 2012. I can see all that though.

I still feel like Linux is easier to configure/fix .. and cheaper. I was in the middle of a datacenter move and we had fucked up preparing for DNS migration and I wrote this in PowerShell at like 5am while on a lot-o-cofe:

That would have been a sed command with bind, and I could test it on a copy because it's all text files.

You run your DHCP/DNS off of Windows?!

Yea, it turned out making multi-ton machines that could walk on metal stilts was extremely hard.

I can deal more with the war machine. I don't like spiders or spider-like girls.

The closet became the town square.

you beat me to it. I assume this is today, and not and old clip from 2016?

Well, that's horrifying

I finally finished up my post on Bibilobunny, my book note extraction tool for Kindle and Play Books:

I hope to add support for getting notes off Nook and Kobo next. You can follow the instructions to create your own book quote bot, and you can follow mine here: nostr:nprofile1qy2hwumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnddaehgu3wwp6kyqpqp0ejzlvrcp3y9ty3pnedj5wrscl8zd6chdqep0ejwn2mdgel0ntssdzh3w

The 2014 movie? I started it once but couldn't get more than a few min in. I use to be an evangelical in high school, so I was kinda curious. But it was still too cringe. Might give it another shot.

I try Wayland every once in a while. I tried Hyprland for three months, but went back to i3. I like Hyprland, but I think there are things fundamentally broken with the Wayland model/architecture that can never be fixed.

But it's also the only way you will ever be able to get HDR.

very smol, and very cute

Foam Finger #1!

I'm suspended on there

oh huh ... we might get one soon 🍿

I use their keyboard (FUTO keyboard) which does glide typing and can do voice-to-text on device, but I've never tried Grayjay. I barely use Newpipe as it is and mostly just use my phone for chat, photos, podcasts and ebooks. I rarely even look at fedi on it.

If Grayjay was a desktop app, I'd probably try it out. 🤷

Use FreeTube and NewPipe? They work way better. No ads, sponsor skip and subscriptions that update and don't report tracking data.

Only one of those is a "journalist." Most are independent. They have links to all their sources.

Let me ask you this: Signal requires a massive amount of resources and handles SMS nations across multiple nations (I have friends in NA and AU who use it). That ain't cheap. If governments and three letter agencies aren't funding it, then where the hell is it getting its money from?

Does that include future sex-ba-bots (if they ever become not expensive cringe)?

now everyone can make horrific California "artist" style art ...
