So you've been awake since 9am? How terrible.

@DogsB said in The Official Status Thread:
@Tsaukpaetra would “copy deployment artifacts from sever one over to server two. Leave config alone. Restart” suffice?
I gave instructions like that once and ended up with broken config on server one.
Unfortunately not, this isn't an automated deployment. I'm hand configuring a Windows RDS gateway server.
You poor sod.

- Slept like absolute crap last night
- Had to wake up this morning
- As was preparing my morning oatmeal, I managed to spill the entire bowl all over the cabinet, the floor, and my foot.
- That was the last of my oatmeal until I go shopping tomorrow.
- I'm blocked from doing anything productive at work (QA is backed up + in-progress limits)
- Even if I wasn't blocked that way, almost all of our work is blocked by other teams (despite having spent the last quarter "decoupling" from them...)
- I had to wake up this morning.

@Benjamin-Hall I recommend turning your notification volume up (or down) and catching some extra winks.
Is this home office or do they force you to come in?

Home office, thankfully. If I also had to get fully dressed and drive 35 minutes in to work...I'd probably have called in sick as a preventative measure. For everyone else's health.

Of course, it's full of repeated information and little errors. How could it not be?

A game I'd have been more than happy to buy again if Squeenix would just release it for a modern console.

It's English. He's referencing an old meme from the mid-to-late-2000s.

@hungrier so is that why the UI changed in part to Arabic?

@Arantor It might be Urdu. That uses the same script as Arabic.

@topspin And what did you do then? Click

-
@BernieTheBernie I closed the app since I have no idea how to change the language and modern design doesn’t like things like icons.

@topspin click the bottom right icon (your profile picture), then the cog, then the 3rd option down then App Language is the 4th option down.

Thanks for trying to help, but my profile picture isn’t even at the bottom right (RTL language stuff probably). However, I already found that you can change the language in the phone settings without going through the YouTube app.

It would look like a line, of course.

Status: England has NPCs too.
Since our brillant (sic) government ruined savings bonds during the Odindu administration, I've been buying my brothers' kids silver coins. There was one particular design that I liked, the "Royal Arms" series, but I hadn't seen a 2024 striking yet. The Royal Mint's website is virtually unusable so I've been buying from US bullion dealers and they're like Target skipping random waves of Marvel Legends. So I asked the mint directly if it was continuing in 2024. Straightforward question, right?
"I am not 100% sure the coins will continue to be struck throughout 2024 they have been produced from 2020 so can only presume there will be a 2025 version available in the future."
Not only is the middle part not true (they've been struck since 2019), I didn't fucking ask about 2025. Also note the run-on sentence. Then I get a marketing spiel for about exciting new products and signing up for the newsletter. Yeah no I don't think so.

@Zenith said in The Official Status Thread:
Status: England has NPCs too.
This surprises you how?
The Mint is, IIRC, in the process of changing over from minting with the Queen's head to minting with the King's head, so they're a bit uncertain about what's going on with their production runs. (I don't know if the new design is approved yet.)
They're confused by the whole process because obverse design changes are rare, maybe less than once a decade.
-
@dkf Meanwhile in NL they can update their design fast enough that they produce special 'double heads' in the succession year.

Status: Officially 100 versions behind.
I used to be annoyed by Jenkins constantly popping up big scary warnings that yet another goddamn version has come out and I need to update it. Which I really don't see the point, because those updates caused me nothing but trouble, with nothing changing in the best case and things breaking in the worst case. Maybe if this shit wasn't its own whole OS / ecosystem, it wouldn't have so much need for sEcUrItY fIxEs .
But then, 2 years ago I got this lovely message:
Well, thanks for EOL'ing the Java version that is still installed on our RHEL 7 machines.
I decided that there's literally no point in this stupid treadmill and just stopped updating it altogether. So now I'm on 2.355 and currently 2.455 is out, thanks to Google Exponential Version Numbering.
The errors in the security monitor now no longer fit on a single page. But guess what, it's not like the server is reachable from the outside world.
-
@dkf They already did that. The 2022 has Elizabeth and 2023 has Charles.
