Angry Thönkpad whirring intensifies

It’s an earlier Lenovo, sire.

Hi Thekingoflorda! Never actually ran upon you before, which is strange, but it took me 5 minutes to realise you’re the admin of lemmy.world! Just consider me a fan

Btw you can set it up to turn the screen off without sending it to sleep. I use a screen lock to do this, but other things probably work too

No, for me I love it, like how some sailors can’t sleep without the sound of the engine

Money? Noise? Power consumption?

this is also my work machine and i sleep to the fans whirring

Get a few scrap hdds and fit them in or idk wire the sata cables out of the case?

Then create a raid 0+1 configuration and you now have a couple tb of redundant storage.

Bonus points if you can get even more hdds (use usb adapters maybe?)

Sorry to tell you I never had a battery

Why? Wouldn’t the VMs add extra complexity? Couldn’t you just run the containers on the machine?

I never received the battery

Don’t even have 256G installed in that thing

We use containers now btw

journalctl. I don’t give a damn as to where the logs are, and I just have tell journalctl to give me the logs for whatever I want.

Linux Is Not UniX

Yeah but you can use journalctl on literally everything from binaries to units to cron jobs with the same interface. You don’t need to find the log file just punch it into journalctl

It’s like docker-compose on steroids if you don’t use Kubenetes and want to treat your machines like pets not cattle

Who cares? It makes my life so much easier!
