Any reason to not just use TMUX and Weechat or irssi? I had sessions up for years when I was active in IRC

I wonder if that’s a new feature. IIRC the issue was with vdevs in ZFS in the pool expansion. I am a FreeBSD user and do have some jails running. I do like ZFS a lot it’s way more mature then BTRFS on the Linux

ZFS is a no go for me due to not being able to add larger disk and then expand my pool size on the fly. MDADM and LVM+XFS have treated me well the past few years. I started with an 12tb pool and now over 50 tb pool

Holy cow these are way cheaper than anything I have seen before. I am in a RAID 5 setup so if a disk or two dies I am okay.

You should look at some old Perl or C code. I have even seen some shell code that makes me want to bash my head in till death with an IBM Model M Keyboard

We did versioning back in the day too. $application copied to $application.old

Time to load up the ICP and Faygo

I miss my T420 that’s a great laptop

It’s the one I use along with Trello. Not gonna be a fan favorite for Selfhosted though

I really remember heatsinks being a thing on overclocked systems around that time frame and then once we got to P4 cpus the chilling towers appeared those things were massive

Ask from a security and compliance perspective of I need to see an SBOM. See if it’s in that report

Lot of bridge bots for linking Matrix and Discord along with IRC

This would be what I would recommend as well.

Access is also an option as well. I think LiberOffice also has an Access like clone as well

Being an older system admin this is how we worked. Would generally have an A and B side and maybe C on our stacks. Most of the time what I supported would be A and B clusters in two data centers and then do either 100% on our primary site or do a mix of traffic between our two sites

I mean it’s had -k/-K since mid 2000s from what I remember but it’s changed

Huh?

Give Gentoo a shot. It’s super stable and you will understand everything in your system. Also it now supports binary packages

Growing up in a rural part of Ohio it was needed. Everything was 20-30 miles away. Need milk and eggs, well see you an a hour

You kids with your fancy branch support back in my day we had CVS and RCS liked it
