Find me on Mastodon too.
I’m going to give it to a friend of mine, but I’ve been upfront that it will not be perfect.
Craftsmanship is never completely flawless - looking good!
Locking this post. Comments are getting off-topic.
I got a pair for my buddy and I. I’ve got nothing bad to say about them. The battery life on monitor is outstanding.
Still true though. I’m distro-agnostic, running the best whatever for the job at hand.
When I give a presentation at a conference about something technical, the question always comes up: “Why are you running that on so-and-so? $Distro is so much better…” and their whole train of thought deviates from the subject at hand.
Point is, the tool is the tool. If Fedora is the best option given our licenses and use scenario, I don’t need to hear about how much better xyz is and how we’re wasting money.
I just want xyz to work. I don’t need the distro wars to be a thing when I’ve got 6 other more important things to attend to.

Backblaze is a great backup solution. They publish drive stats and even show you the hardware they use.

We used to use Malwarebytes Corporate Edition at work.
One afternoon all of our web servers stopped responding to traffic on port 443. I could RDC into the servers, and I could ping them, but most traffic wasn’t being passed properly.
Despite not having made any changes, I did everything I could think of to get them to work. I tried moving them to different switches, different static IPs, Wireshark showed packets flowing, but no web traffic.
I left the office. It was around 8 PM and I had been banging my head on my desk trying to figure out what the hell was going on.
I came back around 10 PM, mind clear and stomach topped off. I worked a few more minutes, then heard the Outlook ding.
Mass email from Malwarebytes CEO. Bad update. Blocked all class B IP addresses by mistake (guess which class we used). Mea culpa. So sorry. New update fixes things.
I immediately uninstalled MWB CE and boom. Services restored.
The next week we got our licenses refunded by our VAR and we never used that product again.
