Texas Walmart. Got there about 7:00pm, Parked in the back of the lot, no one around me. Within 15 minutes, someone parks RIGHT next to my driver side, walks around behind to my passenger side, hangs out for a minute, goes back to their car, drives across the lot, parks again and goes in the store.

In the few inches between the curb and my tire, there's what appears to be multiple cans of wet cat food and a couple cups of dry kibble on the ground.

Wtf just happened!?!? And why...?

Easily the weirdest experience I've had on the road.

I read a short tale a few years ago, terribly paraphrased below. I can't find it again on google and ask your help. Is this just a random thing someone wrote somewhere that I stumbled across at the time, or older & more widely known? I would very much like to read it again if it's out there.

(Paraphrasing because I can't find the original or remember much except for the end)

A monk crying upon learning the news his brother has died, was asked by a student, 'Did you not teach us [insert summary of lessons on impermanence and suffering, iirc]'

'Yes', said the monk.

'Then why do you cry?', they asked.

'Because my brother has died.'

I swear there's a way to run an Ansible command to launch an interactive shell from the controller to interact with a managed node.

Sometimes when troubleshooting a playbook, I need to SSH to a node and poke around a bit more than is convenient for an ad-hoc command. For ephemeral nodes that don't have fully provisioned IAM (i.e. I don't have or want my own account to SSH over with), I stitch together the same ssh config Ansible uses and ssh over as the Ansible user.

Am I imagining a forgotten fever dream, or is there an Ansible command that will basically drop me into an interactive shell session on the remote?

Python novice here. I'd like to try patching my Ansible install with this fix. Can I just pip upgrade urllib3 or will I need to track down if Ansible (and pywinrm) are pinning a specific version (if so, how can I override that locally)?

[Beer-adjacent question] - Are there any craft hard kombucha brewers in SD? or stores stocking national brands (e.g. Flying Ember, Nova, Luna)?

Could someone please help me understand what's happening here.

Run a native command and pipe it to select-string - get the expected output.

Trying to get a list of tabs open on my phone, by extracting them from my desktop profile with a powershell script. They don't seem to be in places.sqlite or recovery.jsonlz4

Has anyone else had issues with overly sensitive keys (and if so, is there a fix?)

Just got my device today. It's great except the P and L keys register key presses if you come anywhere near them (or even just look at them). Trying to type "Hello World" comes out like "Hellllllllopppp Wopprlllllrd"

Is this a common (self-fixable) issue or do I need to work with GPD on a repair/replacement?

Currently have:

• 2x 12v 100W panels.

Question: In the interim couple months, waiting for the Sola

Nutrition info and ingredients look straightforward. Found it (in limited quantity) on Amazon, but I'm not finding much about it on Trader Joe's website (aside from a 5 year old post )

Has anyone tried it with Keto Chow and/or know if Trader Joe's still makes it?

Hello fellow Van Dwellers, what do you think about this van?

2007 Chevy Express G3500 Cutaway ... from a VIN search, it looks like it used to be a fleet vehicle in Alaska

I'm liking the idea of building on a cutaway platform. Problem is I don' t know much about doing my own vehicle maintenance, and starting with an older(ish) model (even with low miles) worries me... especially one that lived through 10 years of rough winter weather.

Inner struggles of a digital hoarder vs minimalist (or having your cake and eating it too).

The context: A feature branch contains dozens of commits during development of the feature. Sometimes it also has branches off it, exploring alternative implementations. Once the feature is complete, it gets committed into a main branch as a single commit - compressing all that history - then the feature branch is deleted.

The question: Is there a way to save that history in a mirrored repository - something that keeps the main repo clean, but allows looking back at everything in a separate archive if desired.

Tagging seems like the right solution, but I'm concerned about optimizing both visual c
