Probably my favorite (benign) Chrome "glitch"/bug. Every so often, launching Chrome and restoring a previous session (that had a "New Tab" open) results in this error where it claims "chrome://newtab/" is invalid. Doesn't really matter, but still amusing/silly.

Google isn't much help here... I guess "Muslim Shower" is probably the closest match here... but... uh... that seems... strange in this context?

Does anyone know what "Docuh" means? When my team at moved to this building (back in March), we had these notes on the dishwasher. And now, the floor below us has them. What does this mean??? What language is it?

I'm not gonna SAY that Sony/PlayStation made a mistake... but... The game that recently announced end-of-service with one week until the final update is currently, on it's WORST platform (Steam/PC), outperforming Marathon's "free week" on it's BEST platform (Steam/PC)... ... yikes.

In case you've missed all the other signs you should've been asking this question... ... here's your chance to "catch up" with the rest of us. (The answer, unfortunately, is "yes, yes we are")

So something cool happened last night. An SSD died. "Wait! That's not cool!" Except... It was just a non-event with Ceph. Data re-replicated to other drives/hosts within a few hours. ... now to get that RMA started...

There's nothing more rewarding than seeing something you've been working on for over a month finally working! Decided I didn't like rffmpeg, and decided to go overkill with a high-availability "distributed ffmpeg" coordinator service. github.com/brwyatt/dffm... Warning: consider it pre-alpha

This just makes me chuckle. I'd rather they just not have this stupid thing popup automatically whenever I track a package, but I like to think this is tracked in someone's metrics somewhere...

There's a problem here... 3 of these *AREN'T* spam/scam emails.... One is from @eff.org and one is from @aclu.org... But honestly, they blend in so well with the spam/scam emails. And if I didn't tell you who/what to look for... would you be able to tell which aren't spam/scam emails?

Lol... got an email from @gitguardian.com "OMG YOU COMMITTED A PASSWORD/SECRET TO A GITHUB REPO!!!!! 😱" Lol... yeah, that ain't a secret. Hell, that's a pretty easily guessable string. It's literally just how you say "home.brwyatt.net" in LDAP. lololol 🤣

Bryan Wyatt @brwyatt.net · 22/09/2025
Bah, they seem to have given up... though still reading the messages??? 🤷 Guess they either think they've got what they want (only had the one channel) or I gave enough resistance that they've given up thinking I'm not worth it lol

OMG.... lol... Okay, this is too easy... lol Gemini is just like "yeah, sure, I can edit this to make it look like you're subscribed"... sure, it watermarks it... but they won't notice, and if they do, that's funny, too.

lol... ah, yeah, so they're really not really reading... Wonder what the "catch" is... 🤔

Bryan Wyatt @brwyatt.net · 01/08/2025
Wonder what the catch is, here... Note: I take a "the best lies are true" approach, say things that are broadly true, or true-ish, but maybe with some artistic license. Also say things that are slightly crazy or SHOULD be clear red flags to any sane person.

Well, this is a new/different script... I'll give 'em that...

I'm definitely pretty happy with these results. Like, this isn't blazingly fast or anything, but given this is over the network? I'm very happy with it. Performance isn't great when the reads/writes are tiny, but over all, still pretty good, and more than sufficient for a desktop. (Ceph RBD)

Dude... did I seriously get a "Public Safety Message" that was a bit.ly link to x.com with a username "@WSPMissingPers1"??? For a Silver Alert that's nowhere near where I am (Downtown Seattle) or plan to be in the near future? Pretty sure this is NOT the right use of this alert channel...

Soooo... I did a thing. Took a few weeks... but... I now have a diskless desktop that PXE boots from some fancy PXE infrastructure, and mounts a RADOS block device from my Ceph cluster for root and /boot mounted as CephFS (that the PXE servers can serve from).
