Several of my utility companies and bank sites do this still. It’s absurd and in the stranger places.

What pisses me off is seeing more and more “You need to upgrade your browser for this site!” when using Firefox.

Having to use a spoof header gets frustrating frequently too.

If you are decent with script type stuff, and have tasker, I believe you can build your own via kwgt:

You can use tasker to set up variables that kwgt then can render in several ways.

I’ve only done simpler things but it’s worked well for me for years.

Like the ideas so far.

My requests/thoughts:

Option to integrate or remove the bottom icons with the other rows… When setting sizes they don’t match up.

Love the rows themselves, fits my preferences well. Especially the arrangement haptics!

Disable the media players option? Maybe dynamically expand from a single icon when in use? Dedicate to a specific media source?

Widget picker is a bit of a mess, option to sort by application?

So far really liking what it is. Keep at it please!

This was one of the best things I’ve watched in a long long time. Thank you for sharing. I was 2 years old when this was recorded, but much of her talk resonates as urgently current and valuable.

For others who might be interested in similar, Douglas Englebart and his team discuss many similar aspects of looking forward toward where we are headed, through the lense of history.

“Choose interesting jobs”

THIS! A MILLION TIMES THIS!

The absolute best career choices I’ve made, in hindsight, were always from the interest in the work or quality of whom I was working with.

Took jobs for less pay, even turning down much higher offers, to choose the gig that was in the area I wanted to expand in.

Never accept just based on “it’s a few bucks more”. Unless it’s twice the pay AND you have something else to gain from the role, always grab the better experience or less stressful spot.

Yeah… I suspect it has something to do with controlling info on Ukraine pushing back perhaps.

That server sounds a bit older in the teeth… Has new thermal paste been applied to the cpu? Even if the reported temps are under 90c, you might be getting hot spots causing glitches inside the package.

Worth trying a couple of different generations of kernel as well, both newer and older. You might be hitting a regression somewhere.

Holy crap that is comprehensive. Great timing since I’m about to wipe and redo my server from scratch.

Thanks for sharing!

Hate to break it to you, but CrowdStrike falcon is used on Linux too…

Absolutely this. Save trouble.

If absolutely in need of a backplane, look for old chassis parts from super micro on eBay.

He doesn’t get older, just more and more apparent he was right this whole time

Thanks!

I hate it.
