  1. the rclone bisync works from crontab after --resync using absolute source path

    Now to hook this thing up to the iDevices to get my KeePassXC file! Later; it's bedtime now.

  2. Upshot of this is it actually fixed the random "limit exceeded" errors; my SFTP remote is MINE and I pay money to keep it.

  3. Rrrrgh... turns out rclone's Google API key will be retired this year

    So after fruitlessly trying to generate my own so my cc65 remote isn't busted (the other remote WAS busted; how did my inner one work?), I set up an SFTP remote

    And it turns out rclone will not work with a RESTRICTED shell. :o(

    I at least set it up to use pubkey auth (password auth is DISABLED), so it should be reasonably secure... now that remote works! Going to also use it for KeePassXC repo.

  4. And oh, another thing:

    Both of my subsequent printers have been laser. No more inkjets due mainly to abuse.

  5. clever library name that I still have no idea what's in it:

    libiberty

    (named so GNU could link with -liberty ;o)

  6. I'll say again, it's time for Quantum Bigfoot to make a return, except at today's data density.

  7. An HP inkjet that got bricked because the subscription stopped being paid.

    It's been over 20 years since I got my first laser printer (an HP 3200 that was raged on) for free, so I fixed the front panel and it still works today!

  8. Got a letter in the mail from Innovis stating that the address of the boneyard was added to my credit report, and they're sending mail since I froze my credit report in 2017.

    Gotta give credit where credit's due. Meanwhile, Experian is fucking up in the corner spamming me and wanting to use this opportunity to SELL stuff, in typical Capitalist fashion.

  9. Bears repeating (and it's only Tuesday, and I took the employer's "ethical AI training" YESTERDAY): Employers will hold you accountable for the AI fucking up

    The only winning move is to not play.

  10. hmm... flatpak rclone UI doesn't know about my rclone CLI remote I've had forever (it's the only acceptable way to use Google Drive for anything)

    Maybe I need the deb version to see it...

  11. going to try to get rclone (specifically "rclone bisync" working over SSH with a bespoke pubkey so I can sync my KeePassXC repo safely without using the clown

    Should be doable. Just need to work it out.

  12. Some states, you know what's a vanity plate and what's a standard one, at 20 paces.

    KS used to be one of these states. Now, you can get "standard"-looking vanity plates. MO has silk-screened vanity plates; the standard ones are still embossed.

    With all the checks DMV does, you'd think NY would account for things like this one... :o(

  13. It's not yet a condition of my employment, but the instant it is, I have a final action item. I completely realize that's a privilege on my part. For right now, I continue to do the work myself; after all, what AI does (including its errors), I'm responsible for. My employer has spelled that out.

  14. There are people who are being forced to participate in this as a condition of their continued employment.

    I know it's not realistic for most people, but let me roughly repeat after jwz here:

    If you're working for such an outfit that's requiring you to poison the world just to keep a job, resign immediately. Do not pass Go; do not collect $200; do not give notice. Resign immediately.

    Don't give your labor to effect your (and our) demise.

  15. So... "AI" is apparently making sysadmins' lives miserable. Given "AI"'s rap sheet, this, I won't doubt.

    But what if we sysadmins all go to lunch at the same time, and take an extended lunch? What if, by pure coincidence, Shit Happens during our coordinated lunch break?

    I'd totally be there for the ensuing shitstorm. We didn't start the fire; we're not going to put the fucking thing out. AI wants to kill us in various gross ways; we should have no sympathy when AI is being killed.

  16. CW: uspol-adj, DST.

    That GOP Senator is a bozo for opposing changes to DST laws that would at least end me having to change the clock, and then change it back 4 months later (I HATE DST, but it's for this reason -- I don't just "lose" the hour; it fucks with sleep and is hazardous to my physical and mental health). but That Jackass posting the Senator's phone number on his echo chamber? That's some bullshit.

    What a fucking wanker, and an embarrassment to the world.

  17. yay, I can author weblogs in markdown now with minimal fuss.

    All I need to do after running things through pandoc is strip the HTML tags from the blosxom decorations at the head (the first line is the article title, and a second "comment" line gives an icon for it. pandoc encloses this in <p> ... </p> cause it looks to markdown like a paragraph)

    I had to massage the code block to make it align properly.

    It got everything else right in my test of the basics.

  18. With the general shitshow that Bluetooth is, it should be no problem identifying who the owners are, amongst many other things. Security is probably looser than a $2... slot...
