Migrated my PVE all-in-one system from a small SSD to 2T SSDx2 ZFS RAID1 storage, very smooth and quick. Just don't upgrade to proxmox-kernel-6.5.13-3-pve-signed, it will segfault when starting your OpenBSD7.4 VM.
One of the most tired genres of academic posting is complaining about your students. A lot of it is mean-spirited (how dare these kids not treat my exact passion with the seriousness I did!), but a lot of it is also just fucking lazy. Congrats, as a trained expert in your field you managed to nitpick a freshman to death, or discovered that they (gasp) skipped a reading.
@seanbala@Zeb_Larson@academicchatter Yeah it’s a little bananapants to me that you don’t have a research track and a pedagogy track. There are a lot of researchers who hate teaching and a lot of good teachers who just go through tie motions of “publish or perish.”
This is why I keep harping on reinvigorating career specific technical training. Most students will be better prepared for a job in their field after 18 months of focused training by professional trainers than by 4 years of random courses taught by people who would rather do research anyway. Our post WWII history ended up sending far too high a proportion of people to 4-year universities.
OK, we're going to roll into April with #RomanceReviews 15. As (hopefully) a delightful little palate cleanser, I'm reading When Grumpy Met Sunshine by Charlotte Stein.
This is possibly my favorite trope of all time, so that title is a lot to live up to. I'm expecting this to be a straight romance between a curvy woman writer and a grumpy former soccer player. The preview is giving me "Talia Hibbert but white" vibes, and it looks like Talia herself gave it a positive quote, so we'll see how that goes.
@RomanceReviews@romancelandia when he is reported to have defended her at a bar after a paparazzi photo of him holding her hand getting in to his car and he concludes, “the only solution is we fake date” that’s gold, I laughed so hard
Cloning 800+ GB system from a 1TB SSD to a 2TB new SSD using Clonezilla, both are PCIEx4, needs about 1 hour. Thanks to Clonezilla, very simple and smooth.
Any virtual keyboard / on-screen keyboard recommendations for Gnome (Wayland) users? The default one doesn't support X11/XWayland apps, which unfortunately is most of them...
@Excigma I can swipe up to force the keyboard to appear, but pressing the keys does nothing in X11 apps (which use XWayland under Wayland), like Chromium browsers or KeepassXC
