Hmmm, might have to find a way to stretch the budget
So, here we are, still not working as they try to get the truck fixed, well into the second week, joy. Oh well, we're planning on replacing it any how, should've done that months ago, but like always, been dragging my heels on it.
Plan was to sell it and buy something that would leave a couple thousand in the company bank account, and that something not being a super nice vehicle since the job is hard on it. I had my eye on a Caravan, but after today, I might need to see if'n I can stretch the budget to afford a Chevy Bolt.
I drove @Vik-Thor / Lirleni Hankeshe 's car home, big event going on at the office, so he figured it'd be better if'n he didn't take up a parking space. So, minimum range, 71 miles. Drive home via I-64, Lindbergh and a side run to Wendy's for breakfast, 21 miles. Range when getting home? 60 miles. Thanks to rush hour traffic and the route I used, this was very similar to what kind of driving I do for work, and this is with me being less than smooth as I don't often drive the Bolt, so with time I could do better. Let's see, no more gas, minimal repairs (and Crosstrek repairs are expensive and parts are often special order), yes please. Heck, I think I could get as much as 300 miles out of a Bolt, even though it's rated at 250 or so. Yeah, this might be worth doing.

I think what concerns me the most these days is how willing people are to give up their ethics for convenience.
They'll vote for a fascist because they think it will drop the price of Pop Tarts.
They'll visit web services that actively work against their best interests.
They'll buy items from brands that they know work against their best interests.
And then when you mention that to them, they get offended that you pointed it out.

Mike Waltz, their new national security adviser has said "he can't wait to see the Liberals lose next election."
Why?
π 'Because PM Trudeau has and will stand up to Trump and #Poilievre is already in Trumpβs pocket.
If you want to become part of the U.S. then vote Conservative.'

Anyone Who Says This Should Be FiredβImmediately
I fully support firing whoever said it, texted it, or scrawled it on a Post-it note and stuck it to someoneβs chair.
I asked a couple of employment attorneys if they disagree,
if there is any reason in the world you shouldnβt fire someone who did this.
Kate Bischoff, an employment attorney and HR consultant in Minnesota, responded:
"No reason. It should be done. Itβs expressing a predatory nature which is often the first step to harassment. Iβd delight in firing them"
Jon Hyman, an employment attorney in Ohio, said:
"Iβd fire. Clear harassment and has no place at work.
In this kind of case, you donβt need to go through progressive discipline. You donβt need to send someone to counseling. Terminate."

Have had some very upset friends and family since this post went up on Insta.
Trust me, my little post doesn't hurt you nearly as much as your vote hurt me.

x.x.x.x - - [10/Nov/2024:00:02:37 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 301 162 "-" "okhttp/4.9.0"
You know whatβs interesting about this log line? It repeats 56,686,963 times in www.kernel.org logs for yesterday, across 4 nodes. Thatβs about 700 times a second, and this has been going on for months.
These requests arenβt intentionally malicious β they issue a simple GET /, receive their 301 redirect, and terminate the connection. From what I can tell, this is some kind of appliance or software installed on mobile clients that uses βcan I reach www.kernel.orgβ as a network test.
This wouldnβt be that big of a deal β a single plaintext βGET /β that triggers an immediate 301 is very cheap for us to generate, but the number of these requests has been steadily growing.
If you have any idea what this is and how to make it stop, please reach out?
