    I'll agree to disagree; on this. It's moot at this point. I do however respect your view. Zfs, rSync were just basic examples but where you need to schedule OS commands, zfs snapsh…

    > We have vastly better tools now in those niches. But do we? I'll beg to differ. Python explodes in to LoC when you try to attempt to work with the OS. You need to source modules …

    And what would you recommend for a system automation script 20 years ago, when I was 13 and discovered Linux for the first time? Perl comes close and it's one of my favourite langu…

    Overwatch too, but it got boring after a while and their matchmaking was atrocious.

    Single player maybe, but that's nothing compared to the likes of UT or Quake.

    Eh, "boomer shooters" died along side with Halo and LAN parties. Minecraft was the final nail in the coffin. The knack and knowledge of hosting a dedicated server required skills. …

    I agree with this. The same goes for subscription cars. Default on the monthly payments and they take it away. If you purchased a rust bucket of a car, you own it and if it all goe…

    The UK's "sugar tax" too have ruined most drinks. Most have been replaced with aspartame or sucrose. It doesn't even come near to how it used to taste. That and palm oil. I miss th…

    I'm not saying you should, but cheap laser pens can do fair damage to a camera CMOS sensor. I discovered that with my Sony Ericsson k700i with a laser pointer when trying to take a…
