me (me@social.jlamothe.net)'s status on Thursday, 12-Jan-2023 05:46:43 JST me @silverwizard @firefly_lightning My Python's a little rusty, but I could re-familiarize myself.
If that's not an issue, I'd be very interested to learn more. -

I'm actually banned from Discord for reasons that were never made entirely clear. I could probably evade the ban, but I can't be bothered. -

me (me@social.jlamothe.net)'s status on Tuesday, 10-Jan-2023 03:01:52 JST me @silverwizard I'm not a fan of either. We had Slack at Boltmade, but I honestly couldn't understand why we didn't just use IRC (or XMPP). We didn't (to my knowledge) use it for anything other than chat.
I use Nextcloud now. -

me (me@social.jlamothe.net)'s status on Thursday, 05-Jan-2023 12:37:00 JST me @hypolite I hear you about disks being too small to partition. Doesn't mean I didn't do it anyways. I remember getting a 1.7GB HDD in the mid 90s.
"We'll never use that much space!"
Also, Windows had this weird utility that let you create a compressed filesystem on a floppy, 'cause you gotta push that 1.44MB for all it's worth. I once tried nesting such a system within itself to double the compression, because compression is magic, right? Lost all my data in the process.
Anyways... what were we talking about again? -

me (me@social.jlamothe.net)'s status on Thursday, 05-Jan-2023 05:08:06 JST me @silverwizard Ah. That explains it. I did that a while ago because it makes database dumps for my daily backup faster. -

me (me@social.jlamothe.net)'s status on Thursday, 05-Jan-2023 04:47:47 JST me @silverwizard I usually don't need to revert from backup... though there was that one time.
I usually do need to re-run the database migration though. -

me (me@social.jlamothe.net)'s status on Wednesday, 04-Jan-2023 06:02:37 JST me @hypolite How does that work? I remember in an old job I had, we had these PLCs that were programmed by connecting building blocks to form a flowchart of sorts, but it's not terribly common. -

When you put something out on the public internet, you can never be certain it's been fully removed. I've cone to make peace with that fact. Whether I like it or not is immaterial. -
