If paying on a monthly basis, as soon as you pay for 12 consecutive months, you will receive this perpetual fallback license providing you with access to the exact product version for when your 12 consecutive months subscription started. You will receive perpetual fallback licenses for every version you’ve paid 12 consecutive months for.

So, in your example, you unsubscribe in month 15. This means, you paid 14 months so you get to retain the version from month three (which is 12 full paid months to 14). This means a downgrade to 1.0.x and not to 1.2.x

Windows doesn’t have sudo (not yet, at least) and privileges work a bit different as even as an administrator, you may not have full rights.

To overcome that obstacle, you’d need to run a shell as an administrator (hold CTRL+Shift, then use the start menu entry or right-click it and select run as administrator).

Next obstacle: We have a separate drive for each partition, but no root folder.

If we assume we’re running on a laptop or PC with a single drive and a single partition*, then it’s just

In cmd.exe:

del /F /S C:\

In Powershell:

Remove-Item -Recurse -Force -Path C:\

When you want to delete all (mounted) partitions/drives, you need to iterate over them. (Note that’s from the top of my head, didn’t check the script if it works).

In cmd.exe:

REM Not gonna do that, I'm no masochist

In Powershell:

Get-PSDrive -PSProvider FileSystem | Foreach-Object {
    Remove-Item -Recurse -Force -Path "$($_.Name):\"
}

Done. Mounting additional partitions before that is left as an exercise for the reader.

*note that even a standard installation of windows creates 3 partitions. One for the bootloader, one for the recovery system and then the system drive. Only the latter is mounted and will be deleted by this. The other two will still be intact.

Followed by a Release Candidate - a beta build that got labeled differently because management said it was time to wrap up development and ship it

It’s not the most detailed thing, but I just use a free account on cron-job.org to send a head request every two minutes to a few services that are reachable from the internet (either just their homepage or some ping endpoint in the API) and then used the status page functionality to have a simple second status page on a third party server.

You can do a bit more on their paid tier, but so far I didn’t need that.

On the other hand, you could try if a free tier/cheap small vps on one of the many cloud providers is sufficient for an uptime Kuma installation. Just don’t use the same cloud provider as all other of your services run in.

Ransomware in Windows:
You need to allow macros to read this job application

Ransomware in Linux:
You need to run chmod +x application.ods.sh to read this job application

{
  put(a, "heartache")
  tell(me, "why")
  ain't(nothing)
  {
    put(a, "mistake")
    //...
  }
}

But you can git blame

“I’m using netBSD btw…”

My vicious cycle: Oh no I did ssh into localhost again. Fuck, let’s do some damage control and disable SSH access to my desktop.

Two days later: ugh, I don’t want to change rooms, I want to do this on my laptop and sit in the living room, but need something from my desktop. Why did I think it was a good idea to disable SSH access…

Then repeat.

Just do it like other projects - tag it as enhancement, postpone it forever, be done with it. And in case it’s a useful enhancement, you can see the votes accumulating on the issue and maybe really reconsider implementing it?

Yes, but

1. Begin transaction
2. Update table set x=‘oopsie’
3. Sees 42096 rows affected
4. Rollback

Can prevent a restore, whereas doing the update with auto commit guarantees a restore on (mostly) every error you make

Everyone has a production system. Some may even have a separate testing environment!

When you use git blame just to realize, that you’re the only contributor to the repository…

You may joke, but if I had a penny for every time someone asked me to solve a problem, that basically boils down to the halting problem, I’d be rich.

Instructions unclear, p…aper stuck in tray 1

I bet it’s only green, because you can still reach their web portal. It doesn’t check any throughput. Or it does and it’s green because a fuckton of tickets get created and instantly closed with “known error, check status page for updates”.

Isn’t it md and mkdir is just an alias in Powershell to accommodate Linux users?

I’m going to reinstall and remove it again to prove you it was not a fluke.

taps a few times on the screen
shows app installing
shows fake lock screen
opens list of running apps

nothing on one, nothing on two, a fake app on three…

closes and uninstalls the app

Done! That’s everything I had for you today,…
