It’s really the same definition. The first time i heard it in this context was with modding/rooting smartphones (in the early days). If you fucked up a step, your device could end up in a completely unusable and unrecoverable state. At that point, its only use would be as an expensive brick

People sure like to just toss the word “brick” around. These printers are still functional enough to get another firmware update to fix them. You know what can’t? Bricks

Kärcher is awsome, all of their products I have are solid and dealing with the company is ridiculously easy. They always have parts on-hand and repairs are usually a handful of steps. Easy recommendation

My home network is called The IT Clowd with these devices:

• Moss - physical server
• Roy - physical server
• Jen - vm - main docker host
• Richmond - vm - *arr stack
• Denholm - vm - management, monitoring
• Douglas - vm - Home Assistant stack
• Basement - vm - development server

Looks are somewhat similar but 🤷‍♀️

It’s a straight up copy. Somewhat similar… JFC

Looks just like Arc

Give me the angry downvote all you want but, you are administering a system, you are literally a sysadmin

It’s, ummm, literally the first thing on the website (nginx.org). Tell me you didn’t read the docs without telling me you didn’t read the docs

Kopia doesn’t get enough love, it’s awesome

I’m not looking to become a sysadmin

“I want to be an F1 racer but I don’t wanna learn to drive”

That’s what I heard you say

When you want to remodel for cheap so you buy all the returns, overstocks, and clearance items at home depot and just make it work

Same here. Postman got annoying => Insomnia. Insomnia got annoying => Bruno. Keeping my fingers crossed for no more =>

Who says he’s on a phone?

I think it’s a behavior from nursing

Very much this. I really dislike my pixel 6 pro (i don’t understand the immense hype it got but, whatever), however, i will be getting another pixel when this dies just so i can use GrapheneOS. So good

I switched to PurelyMail and haven’t had any problems. Just mail with no marketing or other bullshit

Everyone younger than me is a zoomer ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I even turn off the “frequently used apps” features on android launchers. If I frequently use it, I’ve already put it in a prominent spot so I can access it easily. I don’t need some frecency algorithm or ai to tell me I use something frequently, I already know!

Knowing exactly where something is every time is far better than that thing I’m looking for being buried because I want to use it during a time of day that I don’t normally

Try futo keyboard. You don’t even have to download a proprietary blob to enable gesture typing.

Or a self-hosted server…
