  • Those fuckers love platiscs. Everything is individually wrapped and public trashcans are pretty much unheard of. Wanna throw out your trash? Wait until the day that specific kind of trash is picked up, from the net/cage outside. Hope the birds don’t get to it first through or there’ll be trash all over the fucking street. I swear for every fucking brilliant amazing thing you see in Japan, you can round a corner and find the dumbest, least thought through shit you’ve ever seen.

    EDIT: Granted I haven’t been there for almost 6 years so things could have changed of course.








  • With you already being in a cult, you should be able to empathise with these people. They believe what they believe because they’ve been told to. Questioning that comes with consequences from the rest of the cult.

    When someone calls you a fucking idiot for worshiping some old storm god from a long dead bronze age religion who has had more “prophets” than most people have had pimples, you know how they feel when you question their delusions.


  • They are excellent in my experience. Very easy to work with. Had a bad batch of APs that all died on me but that was almost a decade ago and the replacements were just fine. Used a couple of sample devices I got from Meraki (they gave them out for participating in their seminars) and used them until the 2 year license ran out. Now I’m mostly using Mikrotik with RouterOS at home. Way more advanced but also more fun to mess around with.







  • I remember way back when I was solo-sysadmin for a company and the new IT-manager wanted to move everything to O365 and “the cloud”. He claimed it was because of increased stability. My issue with this was that O365 had 13 or something days of downtime that year, while our locally hosted stuff had something like 4-6 hours due to a power failure, at night.

    Managed to keep it local until I left. They outsourced the IT-department after that.

    I’m tired of helping companies move back and forward between Google Workspace and O365 while pretending I still work in IT.
