I wish I was more patient, but we borrowed an elderly technician from an office in the Pacific Northwest and he’s driving me crazy. He’s trying to be friendly, but it comes off as “I need to be the focus of your attention, even when you’re trying to do other tasks”. -

@musicman I’m with you there. If I had to choose between #Eclipse and #Netbeans, NB would win. https://netbeans.org/ -

This is a couple of days old, but still. -

One of the other folks here said that since I’ve been working with so many of the #SSD failure / #BitLocker cases, I’m the on-site SME (subject matter expert). Pretty surprising, actually. We’re getting the mushroom treatment from HQ-IT, so it feels like I’m fumbling in the dark. -

Almost finished my daily #YoCo ( #yogurt and #coffee ). Starting to prepare for work. -

Yes, in theory. In practice, I'm happy to let PIA and Tor do the work. -

@maltimore @moonman @Wolf480pl Not an option. I spend most of my time logging in from #hotel_Wi-Fi, so #VPN and #Tor are essential. -

The road to my promotion looks to be impassible. I think I’m going to abandon that quest. I don’t yet know what’s in my future, but I’m pretty sure $EMPLOYER is not a part of it. -

More failed SSDs. This is happening so frequently that I’m wondering whether this is a #BitLocker issue rather than a procurement issue.
I mean, there are plenty of procurement issues in $EMPLOYER already. The quality of this hardware is about the level of sub $200 laptops. It just seems that the SSD failure rate is higher than almost any other component. -

@lohang I'm wary of any community centralizing on one instance. For the benefit of that community, they should disperse widely across the #fediverse. Any particular instance is vulnerable to pressure, censorship, financial conditions, admin burnout. -

@musicman One important distinction for joining #groups versus subscribing to #hashtags is that only group members can post to a group. Anyone can post a tag at any time, regardless of its relevance. It is true that anyone using an instance that supports groups can join a particular group, but it does cut down on random posts and posters. Also, groups have group admins, who can banish off-topic posters / spammers. -

The property people ordered a box of unapproved peripherals and started issuing them to employees & contractors. We get to start the process of trying to get those items retroactively approved. -

Weirdly, after days of the tracker showing zero hours of #sleep, last night shows 7.5 hours (and I’m still very tired), but much less headachy than yesterday.
I can tell that I have not been getting enough sleep, but the tracker’s numbers were ridiculously wrong. -

@wolf480pl @moonman Ah, but AFAIK, #Cloudflare is still hostile to #Tor and #VPN, Using either will throw so many CAPTCHAs at people that they'll just avoid the CF-fronted site. -

@lohang Is it the rainy season (also known as power outage season) there?
