Trump says there will be a blood bath, civil war and others if he loses. In your opinion whether in the US or not what do you think will happen if Harris wins?
  • Ideally? He flees the country like a coward, and the Republican party implodes under the strain of infighting to be his successor.

    what's your favorite thing to put on fries that isn't ketchup?
  • I hate ketchup, so almost anything else. That said, mustard or some sort of flavored/spicy mayo are top choices.

    Is the RHCSA worth it?
  • Like some other replies said, it probably won't get you a job by itself. But it may get you the interview if it's the distinguishing factor between you and an equivalent candidate.

    I got RHCSA (and later RHCE), and I think they were worthwhile. On cost, I would not go out of pocket for the Red Hat training if that's the bundle you're referring to. That stuff is priced for people that are being funded by their companies. Personally, I did self-study using Sander van Vugt's materials. He has both books and videos for RHCSA, depending on your learning style. I found them to be excellent preparation for the exam.

    What are you voting if they repolled sailing right now?
  • Voted yes, and would vote yes again under pretty much any circumstances. I loved boats in Ultima Online, so any chance to recapture some of that experience is a win for me.

  • Good for them. Wealthy owners should be paying for stadiums, not extorting taxpayers.

  • Yep! I have one that I use for music when I go running. It's over 10 years old now, and still works fine. Phones are too heavy for that use case.

    What was your experience with graduate school?
  • I did an MBA a few years into my professional career, and I think overall it was a great deal. I was fortunate enough to have it paid for by my employer at the time. That particular program was geared toward working professionals, so the classroom time was just evenings and weekends. It checked the box for me being able to say I have a graduate degree on job applications, so I'd say it was worth it.

    Would you use teleporter technology if it existed? Why or Why not?
  • Anyone remember that Outer Limits episode about this? They thought the teleporter malfunctioned, but it really just failed to destroy the source "copy" of the girl at the point of origin. Since she also appeared at destination, the station operator had to flush the original out of the airlock.

    TLDR- Would totally use it.

    Hard Drive Encyption
  • Depends on what sort of underlying file system you want to use on the drive. For Linux filesystems (ext4, btrfs, zfs etc), here's a good start: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt

    For NTFS, BitLocker is already baked in to Windows.

    I'll stipulate up front that I know electrical setups vary wildly between specific boats. That said: I'm about to do a weekend charter on a 36 ft sailboat, and I was wondering if there is a general amount of time that is typical to run the engine per day to top off the house bank.

    I'm trying to plot out a home server build, and I'd like to do it in a rackmount form factor. Use case will likely be Proxmox running a NAS VM and some media services. For the NAS piece, I was thinking an enclosure with hot swap bays would be nice. Anyone have recommendations on the case/enclosure itself? I've seen this Rosewill one on Newegg (https://www.newegg.com/rosewill-rsv-l4412u-black/p/N82E16811147330), but struggling to find many other options.

    developer.hashicorp.com Quick Start | Vagrant | HashiCorp Developer

    Vagrant isolates dependencies and their configuration within a single disposable and consistent development environment.

    Not sure if this one is already common knowledge, but I thought I'd share an interesting tool I recently discovered. Vagrant is a CLI wrapper for various virtualization providers (VirtualBox, libvirt, etc), that allows you to spin up and tear down VMs based on predefined "boxes" (sort of analogous to Docker images). Saves a ton of time running OS installers from isos. Seems really good for use cases where VM longevity isn't really a factor. I'll be using it to experiment/break things while studying for certs.
