TIL #Wireshark on Windows displays ads. Ugh.
#Wireshark ads show on the top-right bit of the application.
Dear #Linux,
SIGINFO is incredibly useful, especially when capturing packets with tcpdump.
Continuously annoyed,

That moment when you finally remember to boot up your rsync VM after a few months of being offline.
The #Radicle web interface for the #HardenedBSD main seed node is getting hit hard by AI bots.
For now, while I figure things out, I've killed the daemon.
This really freaking sucks. No matter what I do, I feel like I'm being punished. All of my available time and energy is spent on taking care of things I don't want to. I'd much rather be advancing the state of the art exploit mitigations or helping address human rights issues.
But no, not only am I negatively impacted by the selfishness of others, but HardenedBSD's users are too.
We cannot build packages unless this httpd instance is online. ports-mgmt/pkg depends on it.
So, I'm not sure what to do. I take a bit of an extreme position on not blocking anything inbound. Blocking IPs runs contrary to my beliefs regarding access to our infrastructure: access should be universally granted, no matter how much of an idiot you are.
But now those idiots are screwing things up for everyone. Just so they can line their pockets off my hard work, pain, and misery.
Well, I guess joke's on them now since the resource is offline.

Gee, deleting 20 #ZFS boot environments magically gave me back over 100GB in storage. Who'da thunk it?
Two blocks away from me. might need to evacuate
Current status: way too hot last night, didn't get even five minutes of sleep. Exhausted, but can't sleep due to an abundance of vertigo and nausea.
Happy Monday, everyone!
Expanding my use of #Radicle has been a blast. I'm really learning a lot.
I feel like a kid in a candy store. I haven't felt like this for hobbyist work in a long while.
@feld boo! yay! boo! ;-P
@feld FYI: I'm getting a connection timeout for media.friedcheese.us, both for TCP:443 and TCP:80
How long would it take an individual to drink 25% of all the water on earth?
What makes an "AI datacenter" different than a normal datacenter? Is it just that it's fully dedicated to racks of servers specifically for AI purposes?

Imagine we spent $37.5B on saving American lives rather than murdering Iranian school girls.

@feld nvm. windows laptop decided to switch to another wifi AP. still having issues :-(
Weighed myself this morning. 141lbs. I'm 6 feet and 1 inches. I'm now at the weight at which I graduated high school.
I don't really want to be this weight. I would prefer to hover around 165-170. When we moved to Colorado three years ago, I weighed 195lbs.
I wonder if I have a parasite or something. I typically find myself in the kitchen every two to three hours. I'm eating a lot, but my body doesn't seem to be properly digesting stuff perhaps?
My mom and step-dad received fire evacuation orders. They're headed to our house now. I hope, when the time comes, they're able to return to a pristine and unharmed home.
