The sailing model is intuitive and easy to get to grips with, and it behaves much like a real boat. You can even get it to rock by moving from one side to the other.

Best of all it's totally seamless being on and off the boat, no invisible walls (you can, and will, fall off the fucking thing in the middle of the night)

I've been on a bit of a sailing game vibe recently, and discovered Sailwind. It's in Early Access, and it's a beautiful little time sink.

Someone said it's Ship of Thieves without the piracy battle stuff but that's a bit unfair, there's shitloads to it.

Most of my time got eaten up by fucking about with Kernel compilation, which I'm well out of practice with and I don't miss at all, plus KISS doctrine means they steer you away from Initramfs so you have to get everything working in-kernel which isn't as easy as one might think.

Played around with a KISS linux install and I actually really like it. You're encouraged to use Sway and so the prototypical build is not unlike what you get with MNT's Reform, a very workable setup that you soon get used to.

Busy day

Source-based distros would be a lot easier going if LLVM didn't take about 25 years to build

Researchers that have their own VMs are very keen on curl | bashing their way through any how-to guide, adding all sorts of cruft that then completely toilets the machine a couple of months down the line.

I've started noticing a pattern in 3rd party repos on RHEL/Centos outside of the well-mainiained EPEL: They break, often pretty quickly. PostGIS has been a shitshow on every server it's been on, as has Dell's linux toolset. They keep fucking breaking yum/dnf and it's just a complete mess to sort out.

Sometimes he just lies on his back like this

Been a while since I've sat down plugged into a switch for a couple of hours. Earplugs are a Godsend. I really enjoy the coal face sysadmin stuff and will never give it up.

2fa now coming to our VPN. I knew this was coming. I don't think it's so bad but I hope it works with the FOSS clients. The last time I tested it a couple of years back you could use the otp feature of the 2fa app to get in. Fingers crossed.

I appreciated this guy's film of his single-handed voyage. There's a lovely bit where he chats with a cruise ship, both parties must appreciate alleviating the loneliness.

My son acquired a little model sailing ship from a yard sale, and he's now making plans. "I will get a job when I am 30. or 38. Then I will get the biggest sailing ship in the world and live on it with cats and dogs"

...Which was good, because I did not have 5k to give them.
