Diseased Open Source Software Community - it's about ethics in Code of Conducts

If you don't check your log files every once in a while to see if nothing quietly fell apart then I don't know what to tell you.

if your setup allows something to "quietly fall apart" then you've already failed. monitoring has never been easier, there's no excuse - unless you're a hobbyist and uptime isn't important to you.

look into things like prometheus and grafana. or if you wanna continue being an ape, rsyslog/promtail/loki/grafana. that way you can continue to parse logs, but at least you'll know about it without having to check manually.

Updates will sometimes screw things up you sperg.

If an update breaks something it's because you're a retard who doesn't read patchnotes.

This is why the thread is infected

What's the initial reason?

I once managed to break sshd trying to install something on Debian after only a few years of installing nothing. I had to backup and start over.

CheckMK also has a built in event console that can bring in logs from Windows and Linux then raise alerts based on the contents of them. There's also logwatch if you want something super simple that just e-mails you a report.

Anyone logging into servers running journalctl fishing for errors is retarded or has infinite free time.

I still get a mild jumpscare every time I see Larabel's updated picture in the footer.

None of us age all that gracefully but dude.

Vice-Chair of Affiliations Committee of Wikimedia posts incredibly lazy AI-generated message in mediawiki update (didn't even bother to remove the AI boilerplate) - wikimedia uses mediawiki which is the software used to power wikipedia. Announcing MediaWiki 1.43.0 / https://archive.ph/3pTqs / Wikimedia affiliations committee

Certainly! Here's a human-friendly response:
------------------------------
That's fantastic news! Congratulations on the successful release of
MediaWiki 1.43!
A big thank you to everyone involved—developers, testers, and contributors
alike—for making this possible. It's great to see the collaborative spirit
and effort that went into not only fixing issues but also improving the
overall release process.
The MediaWiki Engineering Group's leadership in this release is a
significant milestone, and it's inspiring to see the commitment to
transparency and open-source values.
I'm excited to check out the release notes and explore what's new in 1.43.
For anyone encountering issues, it's good to know there's a clear path to
file tasks and track progress on Phabricator.
Looking forward to seeing the continued evolution of MediaWiki. Kudos to
the team!

Good Evening,
Does the vice chair of AffCom really have so little care and appreciation
for the community that you can't even be arsed to write your own human
friendly response?
Do better.
Thanks,
Samuel

My sincere apologies

Suyash, ... maybe I've found what's wrong with the update message.

His smile and optimism: gone.

38C3 is this weekend so brace yourself for a collection of autism, politics, and drama by having all of these people concentrated in one place.

How is any of this related to technology? Why are there so many shark plushes? If I didn't know it was at 38C3 I would've thought it was another troon meetup that inevitably led to an orgy. They don't care about technology and use it as an undercover for themselves to make further connections with the troon hivemind.

Also >Chaos Communication Congress you just know all of them are against emulation and their "chaos" involves sucking up to soy DIY culture and worshipping corporations instead of doing anything actually revolutionary.

It is not related to technology anymore. We managed to turn the hacking scene upside down into a bunch of mentally ill nerds who share the same views on transhumianism as the bay area tech bros. They were writing software all their life and they see everything as a computer system, which can be made to do anything they want, with no negative side effects. The problem is that computers are very simple systems, compared to the human body (that we still do not understand completely), or the society, or the environment. These people think that just because they can hack software, they are omnipotent and can control everything, while in reality they can't even control their sexual desire and let fetishes take over their lives.

See my post in sideshows for some more cringe:

One of the reasons all hacking conventions like Chaos Communications Congress, and EMF Camp are going to shit in the recent years is because they are not about hacking anymore. Instead they focus more and more on transhumanism which is exactly the agenda that big tech trying to push to make more money. Exhibit 1:
Trannies and paranoid lefties managed to entirely take over a large part of the hacking scene. Giving yourself hormonal problems and becoming a lifelong medical patient is now presented as something good and I completely disagree with it. Becoming tied to large medical companies is not what hacking is about.

Exactly. Our friend Ryan Castellucci even outright called his non-binary lawsuit a reverse engineering exploit or some gay shit, then acted all shocked when the courts didn't share that view.

At least the ponyfags had some variety in their plush fuck toys. Troons really are just production-line commodity consumers, aren't they?
