Thanks, that'll come in handy!

I guess it's worth mentioning that once (only once) I've seen ripgrep bring a whole LAMP stack production server to a full tilt. A dev using VSCode (which has rg as part of its 'trojan horse' vscode-server it installs and runs as root on any server it's used to edit) did a search and ripgrep went into some kind of death loop hogging 100% of all cpu cores. Probably rare, but kind of shocked me. All our servers now babysit vscode-server with cgroups...

The sharp uptick of crap flown around 2.6 piques my interest. As does someone's introduction of 'retard' into the vocabulary shortly prior. Must have been popcorn times.

Just wanted to fly a less popular flag in this conversation. When I was choosing my first bike, my first crush was the Honda Silver Wing, a maxi scooter. Loved the looks and the practicality, loads of storage even without panniers and such...

But I didn't follow my heart and got a dual sport, which was great fun for 24000 km. However, I missed the practicality. One djembe drum was ruined as it wiggled loose from straps and took burns off the exhaust.

A couple of years ago I got a 250 Vespa as my second bike. Already much more practical. I also prefer the longer service intervals compared to cogs and chains. As much a I enjoy that thing, first crush is still in the back of my head...

What am I rambling about? Don't disregard scooters, they're great too :D

The only caveat here is the fire-hazard non-removable lithium batteries.

Here too. Free 2012 Mac Mini that's been servering away for a couple of years already 24/7 on UPS power. Gets a deserved smile every time I look at it :)

I'm looking at replacing my 2018 desktop machine (a Thinkcentre Tiny) soon with one of the new AMD 395 mini-pcs. When that happens, the Mac Mini will be retired...

Hopped aboard, gave it a little poke around as a first time user. Definitely much more friendly user experience compared to OSMand! I was able to pin my home location and set 'avoid highways' very intuitively.

Sailfish OS is really nice, but only available for select Sony Xperia phones officially. Also native apps are few in number, but when I used it there was enough for basic needs - really good navigation app, ok Matrix and Telegram, official email app was excellent, the browser was workable. I think I got an Android parking app working too. But this was a while ago.

Looks like Honda have stolen my mod I did on my 2013 CRF250L that I rode 24000 km on: it now comes with an approximation of an ice hockey puck bolted on the side stand as standard :D

I live and ride with a Fjällräven Greenland size S. Most excellent. It has a kind of second strap that in marketing was touted for cycling, but I find it most useful when walking a lot so the bag stays out of the way.

Quick access is the star feature. I can pull out the most needed things (wallet, phone, keys and insulin) without opening the buckle. That took some customisation though. For car / bike keys I put a ring on the shoulder strap that the keys carabiner on and off quick.

That makes a great deal of sense. I'll certainly try to make an extraction with no heating next time. Shame that it'll have to wait a full year...
