Technology@lemmy.world•Majority of CEOs report zero payoff from AI splurgeEnglish
12·2 days agoExactly, the vision was flawless, it will all be blamed on the execution. The people who failed to build it will be held accountable though; departments of them…
Fucking awesome system we have here.
You think that’s bad, I got married in 2008.
Then again, I’ve done a lot in that time, 3 kids into it, including 2 teenagers…
Big fan. I don’t demand much from a window manager, just stay out of the way. I’ve never really had to give cinnamon any thought, shit just works. I spend most of my time in a terminal window though, so not really pushing the GUI.
This is cursed, unnecessary, unexpected and impressive all at the same time.

Technology@lemmy.world•Hard drive prices have surged by an average of 46% since September — iconic 24TB Seagate BarraCuda now $500 as AI claims another victimEnglish
2·6 days agoThanks, I’ll look there. I usually just go Amazon or Newegg (easy returns if bad) but I’m sure there are better deals out there.

2·6 days agoI’ve got 30tb or so made up of 4 and 10tb used drives. All I’ll buy anymore. In fact, I need to change out of of my parity drives. Hopefully used market is still somewhat affordable.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you prefer FOSS over proprietary software? How much do you use it?English
6·25 days ago100%. I try to use open source wherever possible. If it does have to be closed/proprietary, I will only use software I can own, no subscriptions; and the only if I can get them working in Linux (wine has come SO far).
That said, I do still have a windows partition but only for job related stuff.
Same. I adore my wife, fall more in love with her every day we’re together. It’s not always easy, but things that are worth it aren’t. Marriage is the best decision I ever made.
I did get married a little later than some, just had turned 30 the month before we tied the knot. Maybe taking my time and finding the right one helped, not sure. Just knew it was her almost right away.

12·1 month agoYes, just because they also voted for racism, doesn’t absolve them of the rest of the plainly obvious shit they were voting for. Racism is expensive.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What is the technical hill you are willing to die on in your industry?English
8·1 month agoIt is, but I’m ready to officially throw in the towel and embrace the fact that running your own hardware is not much more than a hobby these days. I’ve preached and preached the value of multi or hybrid cloud, only for the people with money to pour it down the same hole time and time again.
I’ve always said IT is essentially an entirely CYA driven industry. Having someone to blame is more valuable for them than uptime, and if they can show their outages, even if the numbers suck, was not their fault (easy to do when all your competitors are down at the same time), it’s all good…
Update- lol, YouTube is currently down.

2·1 month agoSounds like a hell of a system that puts mine to shame. I’m impressed fellow self hoster :)

No idea what to say about this, or what it even is. But I’m sorry to hear it. I had a very similar situation as a kid, multiple divorces, used as a pawn in their fight over money. It’s rough, but I learned from their mistakes and have a strong marriage that works.
