and i hit the cap for today

Seth

oops, wrong window

dessert

quick, upvote him!

Videonauth

@dessert well this is actually on top two of the HNQ i guess i will get a lot upvotes until midnight which will not count toward reputation, but give badges

so i don't mind, and being in the top three HNQ means the question will stay in the HNQ for at least another day with its 117.xx arbitary hotness points awarded

erm correction 137.xx points ...and place #1 in HNQ

Q: Why does man print "gimme gimme gimme" at 00:30?

We've noticed that some of our automatic tests fail when they run at 00:30 but work fine the rest of the day. They fail with the message "gimme gimme gimme" in stderr, which wasn't expected. Why are we getting this output?

lol 10 days

jrg

@Seth Congrats!

Welcome to sagehood!

jrg

Seth

@KazWolfe Thanks!

I finally just spun up a DO droplet and gave up (for now) trying to get IPv6 on my LAN working well.

Between Comcast and lousy dd-wrt IPv6 support that wasn't going well.

Kaz Wolfe

yeah that's... not fun

Seth

also, I didn't know HE had videos that explained all the material until after I finished xD

that would have made a few things easier..

Kaz Wolfe

yeah they're pretty much just looking for excuses to give away shirts lol

now... go get yourself a /48 :D

Seth

I don't think Comcast will assign me one without switching to their business plan D:

Huh. It's working for me in Incognito.

Startups is shutting down. Again. :(

Q: Startups Stack Exchange will be closing on December 11th

3 years ago, this site made it into public beta, as announced here. It was not without some level of trepidation - Startups had previously been on the network and resulted in closure due to the lack of any remaining moderation hands on the site resulting in its quality dropping. So it was stated ...
