Migrating to Mastodon
I'm migrating away from this Pleroma instance to https://rewt.link/@johndotpub for better feature support, and so I can maintain fewer instances.
Please follow me on the new profile. This one will remain active for another few weeks, maybe a month.
Thanks to some help from the #alpine community, I have added some diskless netboot instances to my home rack.
PXE booting ephemeral Nomad compute nodes is super nifty!
Hot take: GCP is such a joke cloud.
Your business is a joke if you're primarily deployed there.
It is just the biggest loser cloud provider in so many ways.
Google, known for their "customer obsession" and A+ support is exactly who I would trust with my enterprise infrastructure.
There are a lot of people asking whether I am susceptible to Downfall attacks.
At this point in time, I would rather not speculate.

I can unequivocally say that `Browse Securely for Chrome™` extension is #spyware
Every URL you visit is sent to their servers. They intentionally try to hide this by taking the JSON datastruct, converting it to a utf8 array of bytes, performing a bitwise XOR of the data (255), and then encoding it as base64 before sending it on.

Fun game to play: how much code can you comment out before you actually get a failure from your tests?

Today is a sad day JetNet bought ADSBExchange. The data source for ElonJet/bots not to worry as other networks will be coming up. If you feed ADSBexchange we encourage you to stop feeding. ADSBExchange was founded on the principles of hobbyists community not for profit PE firms. https://www.jetnet.com/news/jetnet-acquires-ads-b-exchange.html
We have a mobile phone and DSLR that can zoom on Moon and get Crystal clear pics. Yet, when it comes to UFOs (or stupid balloons), we still get blurry images and videos. For once in my lifetime, I would like to see something clear and not blurry image/video. Is that too much to ask?
