TIL Cert Warden is a thing. Looks awesome!

In a free market, aren’t you free to collude with your competitors in order to fix prices?

Let’s say your country was about to be invaded, your house stolen and you sent elsewhere or killed so that citizens of the invading country could occupy your house and your land instead.

And all of that not happening was hinged on the physical prowess of an old guy who’s probably been in politics for decades.

How helpless would you feel?

Well, as far as I’m concerned Skype for Business set the benchmark for terrible. Teams isn’t even close to being that level of bad

Teams is relative.

At a previous job (Microsoft shop but in the public sector so 10 years behind), the standard messenger when I started was Skype for Business.

In case you’ve never used Skype for Business, it’s “Skype” in branding only and actually has nothing to do with the Skype software that Microsoft purchased and is more like MSN Messenger.

Compared to that, Teams is a huge step up.

Also, at a Microsoft shop, you have to use what Microsoft provides even though it’s usually balls.

It’s 90% of the reason I now refuse to work anywhere that’s bought into the Microsoft ecosystem. It’s just so… mediocre

It’s like it’s “expats” when UK citizens enter your country and “immigrants” if anyone else does

SELinux is one of the first things I disable. It causes way more problems than it solves.

All my workloads are containerised so I’ll trust the security of that machinery to sandbox them instead

Nah, that isn’t racist.

Here’s the racist version:

Sand removeds gon’ sand nigg. They’ve been sand nigging for thousands of years and they will continue to sand nigg regardless of outsiders attempts to interfere.

Honestly we should just leave them to it

Just think of it as a routing optimisation that is only relevant for ipv4 networks.

Router simple, router need to make decisions quick, quickest decision is made when can smush the subnet mask against an IP address and determine if the computer is on a local network so router can send traffic direct or is on other network so router needs to send traffic to other router

Amazing summary, absolutely nailed it
