Got some scam mail. Nothing really special but I took a look at the header. This one came from a goverment webmailer in brazil and was tagged with `User-Agent: RoundCube Webmail/0.8.2` released in 2012. So very EOL. Wow, that’s some call from the past.

Why?
when uptime was a thing
It’s the small things. Like `htop` showing this exclamation mark with an uptime over 100 days. Back then a number of pride, nowadays [without live kernel patching] more a warning of all the skipped patches. #JustLinuxThings
Container all the things
Internet must be in a really bad shape when the first extension recommended by Firefox is Facebook Container from Mozilla – way before the first adblocker shows up 😔
Still recovering from the long weekend
Visiting Berlin was quite a ride. I’m sleep deprived, probably catched a cold and had to race to catch the train. Sadly we had to scratch visiting the Berlin Story Bunker by @ennolenze@mastodon.social, that I really wanted to see, from the schedule 🙁 Next time!

Having a great time at #IndieWebCamp Berlin / Germany.
Alternativlose Energiewende
TIL: Zur #Energiewende dass #Windkraft innerhalb von 1000m krank macht. Ganz anders sieht es bei den Alternativen aus. Atom z.B., habe ich mal bei The Simpsons™ gelernt, hat dieses Problem nicht. Innerhalb dieser 1000m is [bei umfallt] dann halt einfach essig so vong Leben her.
Backup all the things
Wow. ST3000NM0033 just 4.3 years shy came back with a 188 Command_Timeout of 60130459662.
This server houses either a vermin nest of some sort or someone fcked up plugging a gorram cable. Either way it’s pants on fire.
Update:
2nd act as #poem.
We complained.
They rejected,
no error to be detected.Bewildered we insisted,
and grumbling they assisted.They pulled out all the disks,
and concluded all at risk.Wait, what?
Only one was shut!Now we’ve none,
the raid is gone.Next is a letter we have to sign,
that loosing all our data is just fine.You wonder if we have a backup?
oc, always prepared for such a f… mess.

Sorry. I’m not used to this sort of chaos engineering.
Switched to winter tyres
Adulting much today. Switched to winter tyres finally. While the car (and especially the breaks) look fine three of four summer tyres are bust 🙁 Really not happy with the performance of the #ev-tyres that came with the car. Next set will be a regular one. The wear is simply not worth the few extra miles I may gain with the “softer” rubber.
