I miss the days when PG articles were actually worth reading, and not just spurious drivel from yet another person that hasn't been in touch with reality for decades.

3227 days, running RHEL 5, took a screenshot first, then powered it off a couple of months ago. Amazing what can lurk in big corp networks.

Using Prometheus in federated mode has been fine for me, I'm running it almost exactly as depicted in the article and I'm not sure why OP describes it as a complex on - you just need to have some idea of what metrics you'd li

Similar boat here, and know of many other companies in the same situation (although we chose Alma). We thought we were on a good proven path of paying for support where we need it, and using the downstream alternatives when we didn't.

Because they're just IBM with a hat on now.

Another irritating move from Red Hat, likely driven by their unhappiness with the popularity of Alma/Rocky instead of a mass migration to RHEL they had probably hoped for. As the source is still available, but not publicly, could it be

Unfortunately the developers of those particular things (often like ad developers) use obscurity of things like div names to make the task less trivial.

Previously we were using FortiManager to manage a cluster which has CSV export functionality, however for reasons too long to explain on HN, we no longer use FM and simply use FG directly. We occasionally provide policy and DNAT exports to

See the comment by TheHemric, it's a bit more informed than you seem to be.

They could be giving it out for free, to be honest, I still wouldn't ever go back to using their services.

This article is garbage. > So yeah, try feeling grounded with that. It's a miracle that it even works. Just because something is too complicated for you to understand, doesn't mean it's no good. Is this guy going to declin

For anyone looking for a better way of managing rack diagrams/assets, NetBox has a great and easy UI for this.

I've been undertaking a similar project, using an ESP32 currently for testing, also have an Arduino Micro Pro to test yet, during lockdown/furlough. I'm hoping to customise and sell them on Etsy, I've sold code + 3D prin

Thanks, you've described what I had in my head as a rough way of doing things - the issue with this approach is that it appears to be one bot instance per user. I.e. if I want the same 'user' to be able to be invited to unlim

I don't know how well that would scale though with multiple popular servers.

Yeah I have some projects at work which manage containers in this kind of fashion, which is probably why I'm applying that to this and over-engineering - which I almost always do. The current bot could work with just passing in a token

I'm still using a 2015 MacBook Pro that I'm clinging to, despite the screen having developed an annoying flicker every few minutes. I know 4 others in my office with Apple laptops, and they're all 2015 MBPs because until now,

Chrome on Mac, it's convenient, and despite robbing all the RAM my 2015 MBP has to offer, it works well. I tried switching to FireFox for two weeks, but found a lot of visual tearing/glitches, and it didn't have pinch to zoom

Not the answer you're looking for, but I found it too busy, unintuitive, and the lack of non-distribution for the OSS version finished off my test run. I use Graphite, have done for years, and am quite happy with it. On a further note,

I'm not sure swindling involves negating a battery peak performance issue for users on old hardware. I still use an iPhone 6 and had noticed less crashes with upgrades (loading big apps would often crash it), less now with iOS upgrades

Funnily enough when discussing this with a friend this morning I also described my 2015 MBP as 'peak Apple'. Sadly I need a laptop instead of a desktop, and I can't be bothered to battle with Hackintosh compatibility...

Also, as a secondary question, is there any physical difference between a US MBP, and a UK MBP, other than the charger? The same £2179 laptop in the US (with taxes) comes to £1792. I have some family in the US that visit annually, so a savi

This reads like an advertisement for learning Ansible, where you could achieve the same in a few lines.
