  • Oh we have a dedicated Linux service contract with a dedicated Linux support company that has technicians just to deal with Linux issues and provide the Linux setup. We’ve had time to adapt. I guess some bloke still decided that there just had to be a malware scanner and now we all have to eat shit. This is much less a lesson for it departments and much more a lesson that the people who manage stuff just have other goals than the people working with the tools that are managed, so you end up with somebody who wants to cover their ass in case something goes wrong in the future and makes it a terrible experience for everybody in the process but can sell it as a necessity to the people below and as action to the people above.


  • Same. The Linux setup there is a fucking mess though… AD authentication freezes login for a minute or so if you switch networks at the wrong moment, puppet keeps messing with the system and recently they installed clamav as a live malware scanner on all machines, making them eat batteries for breakfast and slowing down even menial tasks. If you have admin rights, they refuse to add your user to sudoers but instead create a new admin user (another indicator that they’re just really coming from windows) which everybody just uses to add their original user to sudoers, which was a nice workaround but which they now noticed and want to prohibit via puppet or user rights or something. It’s just such a mess. I mean, still leagues ahead of using windows, but a corporate environment really is a machine that transforms time and money into a terrible experience for everybody.














  • Was ist denn so schön an unsere Rasse dass sie erhalten werden soll?

    Okay, wenn dein Ziel ist, die Menschheit vom Planeten zu tilgen, dann ist “selbst keine Kinder kriegen” natürlich ein guter erster Ansatz. Nicht unbedingt ein Ziel dar ich teile, aber meinetwegen. Ich, als Mensch, finde Menschen ziemlich dufte und arbeite gerne dafür, dass es uns weiter gibt. Warum du dich aufregst, dass die Menschen ihre Lebensgrundlage zerstören, verstehe ich nicht ganz… Sollte dann doch ganz in deinem Interesse sein. Du arbeitest einfach daran, dass die Menschen aussterben, ich hab meine Kinder so lange lieb und freue mich, dass wir zusammen ne gute Zeit haben. Jedem das Seine.
