I miss the days when PG articles were actually worth reading, and not just spurious drivel from yet another person that hasn't been in touch with reality for decades.

3227 days, running RHEL 5, took a screenshot first, then powered it off a couple of months ago. Amazing what can lurk in big corp networks.

Using Prometheus in federated mode has been fine for me, I'm running it almost exactly as depicted in the article and I'm not sure why OP describes it as a complex on - you just ne…

Similar boat here, and know of many other companies in the same situation (although we chose Alma). We thought we were on a good proven path of paying for support where we need it,…

Because they're just IBM with a hat on now.

Another irritating move from Red Hat, likely driven by their unhappiness with the popularity of Alma/Rocky instead of a mass migration to RHEL they had probably hoped for. As the s…

I have various pieces of open source software that people have offered to donate or give me some money as a thank you for, but I usually just say the thank you is enough purely bec…

Thanks, I needed to feel this old on a Monday morning.

Unfortunately the developers of those particular things (often like ad developers) use obscurity of things like div names to make the task less trivial.

Previously we were using FortiManager to manage a cluster which has CSV export functionality, however for reasons too long to explain on HN, we no longer use FM and simply use FG d…

See the comment by TheHemric, it's a bit more informed than you seem to be.

They could be giving it out for free, to be honest, I still wouldn't ever go back to using their services.

This article is garbage. > So yeah, try feeling grounded with that. It's a miracle that it even works. Just because something is too complicated for you to understand, doesn't mean…

For anyone looking for a better way of managing rack diagrams/assets, NetBox has a great and easy UI for this.

I've been undertaking a similar project, using an ESP32 currently for testing, also have an Arduino Micro Pro to test yet, during lockdown/furlough. I'm hoping to customise and sel…

Thanks, you've described what I had in my head as a rough way of doing things - the issue with this approach is that it appears to be one bot instance per user. I.e. if I want the …

I don't know how well that would scale though with multiple popular servers.

Yeah I have some projects at work which manage containers in this kind of fashion, which is probably why I'm applying that to this and over-engineering - which I almost always do. …

I have 2 months of furlough, and I'd like to improve my Python (and other) skills and, for once, start and finish a project. For once I've decided to pick a project which will actu…

I'm still using a 2015 MacBook Pro that I'm clinging to, despite the screen having developed an annoying flicker every few minutes. I know 4 others in my office with Apple laptops,…

Chrome on Mac, it's convenient, and despite robbing all the RAM my 2015 MBP has to offer, it works well. I tried switching to FireFox for two weeks, but found a lot of visual teari…

Not the answer you're looking for, but I found it too busy, unintuitive, and the lack of non-distribution for the OSS version finished off my test run. I use Graphite, have done fo…
