It really really rubs most of us the wrong way. Yet, for whatever reason, stupid men are taught that it is ok to call us “females”. It is like we are corpses. Things. Not even people.

Sorry, didn’t make it home until today and not sure if you get notifications on edits. You will need a monitor and keyboard hooked up to your server as you will not have ssh access until the network config is “fixed”. I would do the below with the GPU removed, so you know 100% that your networking config is correct before mucking about further.
Add a /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link
with the below contents.
# SPDX-License-Identifier: MIT-0

# This config file is installed as part of systemd.
# It may be freely copied and edited (following the MIT No Attribution license).
#
# To make local modifications, one of the following methods may be used:
# 1. add a drop-in file that extends this file by creating the
# /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link.d/ directory and creating a
# new .conf file there.
# 2. copy this file into /etc/systemd/network or one of the other paths checked
# by systemd-udevd and edit it there.
# This file should not be edited in place, because it'll be overwritten on upgrades.

I forget if you have to reboot, but I am going to assume so. At this point, you can get the new name of your nic card and fix your network config.
ip link
should list all of your nic devices, both real and virtual. Here is how mine looks like for reference, with the MAC obfuscated:1: lo: <LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 65536 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
2: enxAABBCCDDEEFF: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc mq master vmbr0 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
3: vmbr0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
You will need to edit your /etc/network/interfaces
file so the correct card is used.
/etc/network/interfaces
, just in case you mess something up.sudo vim /etc/network/interfaces
(or whatever text editor makes you happy)
It will need to look something like below. I have to have DHCP turned on for mine, so your config likely uses static. Really all you need to do is change wherever it says enp yada yada to the enxAABBCCDDEEFF
you identified above. source /etc/network/interfaces.d/*
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface enxAABBCCDDEEFF inet manual
auto vmbr0
iface vmbr0 inet dhcp
#iface vmbr0 inet static
#address 192.168.5.100/20
#gateway 192.168.0.1
bridge-ports enxAABBCCDDEEFF
bridge-stp off
bridge-fd 0
sudo systemctl restart networking.service
Hopefully at this point you have nework access again. Check the below, do some ping tests, and if it doesn’t work, double check that you edited the interfaces file correctly.
sudo systemctl status networking.service
will show you if anything went wrong and hopefully show that everything is working correctlyip -br addr show
should show that the interface is up now.lo UNKNOWN 127.0.0.1/8 ::1/128
enxAABBCCDDEEFF UP
vmbr0 UP 192.168.5.100/20
At this point, if all is well, I would reboot anyways, just to make sure. If you add any GPUs, sata drives, other PCI device, disable/enable wifi/bt in the BIOS, or anything else that changes the PCI numbering, you don’t have to worry about your NIC changing.
I am not at home, but what I did was change the 99-default.link file. I found this from the two pages below. https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkInterfaceNames#CUSTOM_SCHEMES_USING_.LINK_FILES https://wiki.debian.org/NetworkInterfaceNames
Basically, by doing this, your nic cards will be forcibly named using the mac address:
#/etc/systemd/network/99-default.link
[Match]
OriginalName=*
[Link]
NamePolicy=mac
MACAddressPolicy=persistent
Afterwards, you will need to reboot and then update your network config file to use the correct names. I don’t ever change the network config with the GUI in proxmox as it has wrecked it too many times. I will update this reply again later with some more information on what to do.
Hey, you ok? I am not ok today, but I definitely don’t want to fill my skull with bullets. Go wash your sheets/bedding. For whatever reason, clean sheets are the best.
I changed my settings to name nic cards by mac address instead of the enumeration as I got sick of the name changing when I would add/remove pci devices.
Yeah, it was in the 70s on Tuesday. Today dropped into the 20s and now it is snowing.
The whole thing is fucked all to hell and we have a whole bunch of people afraid of the other gender perpetuating this nightmare of violence, abuse, unhinged reality, and inequality. These violent delights, have violent ends.
However, we can choose to see the beauty in the world. We can love each other, laugh, teach, revel in the mysteries, and hold each other in comfort. There is so much we have achieved as a species, but we are also so good at holding ourselves back. Sometimes, we just need to crash in to each other. To get some kind of connection, even if it is the wrong one.
There is so much more to say, but painting the universe takes time. Go. Be beautiful my friend, and good night.
Kung Foo Hustle is just amazing. I need to get that later and watch it again.
A potentially lesser known movie is ‘Kimi’. Not your typical example, but watching her get past her trauma enough to kick ass in the end was great.
When you opt-out with Experian, your information is not deleted from the Experian marketing database. Experian will mark your record as “Do Not Online Target” for a period of five years. You can renew your opt-out request after this five-year period. If Experian removed your information completely, we would have no way to know your preference.
What the fuck kind of bullshit is that? No way to know my preference? How about never! Thank you for letting me know that I have to write another email today and try not to lose my shit. Maybe I will setup an automated message to go out every year or something to “remind” them.
I disabled that shit the moment I found out a few years ago. As far as I know it is only potentially an issue if a landlord or something wants to see it and isn’t tied to your credit score. I don’t give a shit right now anyways as my credit is good enough. If I need to give someone access to it, and it makes sense, sure, but I would rather hand over a copy of my W2 or paystubs personally.
It is entirely messed up that it exists and most people don’t even know about it. Dystopian nightmare indeed.
I will just leave this here. Your employers can snitch on you as well and just give all of your paystubs to…Equifax. It was shocking to see which ones did and which ones did not.
I am getting flashbacks on dealing with SAP “inspired” software that looked worse than that bottom image. I am glad my new company does not use that garbage. It was especially depressing to see how SAP entirely ruined Concur.
The only way I learned how to type growing up was from instant messaging my friends. All of those ridiculous typing programs didn’t help. One random thing that might help is a different keyboard, or, different profile keycaps!
I love me some mechanical keyboards and I like the tactile feedback from “brown” switches. The last one I built I found out about the wonderful world of keycaps, specifically keycap profiles. I fell in love with MT3s as they are a little “cupped”. My fingers sort of fall into the scoops and get enough tactile feedback to stay on the key and they just feel nice. I haven’t looked at cheaper membrane keyboards in years, but I remember you could pull off the keycaps and put different ones on those, but I have no idea how they are now.
If you are interested in mechanical keyboards, you can usually buy a sample kit that has all of the different switches and you may be able to find something similar for keycaps.
I guess what I am trying to say is a different keyboard, or even keycaps, may help her learn. Though I do realize that this stuff is expensive too. As someone who is on a keyboard everyday, it became a tool to invest in.
He was describing American football players/teams as thugs. It is not meant with race in mind at all. For a little context there was some big argument going on the TV and the American team was throwing a hissy fit and screaming at the officials.
Edit, to add: Rugby can be quite violent, but the players have some respect for the game and officials. I don’t really follow sports, but I found Rugby fascinating when I was over there! What a neat game.
Nope. This was a comment from a Brit when we were discussing the difference between Rugby and American football. I found it an apt description at the time.
A man from England told me this, when talking about the difference between Rugby and American Football. Rugby is a thug sport played by gentlemen. Football is a gentleman’s sport played by thugs.
This. Ignition isn’t that expensive and is cross platform. You can even run it in docker. I understand wanting free, but when it comes to industry, sometimes paying a few bucks for less hell later down the line is worth it.
I ended up getting it from them directly. I am on Android 90% of the time and don’t pay for the license from the Apple store. No idea if that one is a single device or the same as the multi-device. I tend to not do things from the Apple store as I don’t have an iPhone and they seem to want or assume you have one. Just like I can never use their watch (not that I want one).
TL;DR, most people are reasonable and can tell the difference. We cool.
People where English is not their first language get a pass. There is usually a very telling inflection when someone says “females” and means it in the bad way. I would rather help people with their English and explain that it is best to not say it that way, than get upset over our language being unnecessarily complicated.
The context of how female is said is even more confusing. Best way I think is if you are referring to a group of people or a specific person as female(s), that is bad. If you are referring to something about our gender, a description, or something impersonal, then that is fine. “Female anatomy.”, “I hate being female.”, “There was a female guard at the station.”
While it is puts me on edge when I hear it (in that bad context), it isn’t like they called me a cunt or something really foul. It is usually just an immediate red flag that we may be dealing with an incel, but let’s see where this goes. Usually doesn’t take long to get a confirmation on how they really meant it.
