2023.03.21 00:08 zh12a VM and VMSS – What Configuration Management do you use?
I been asked by management to start migrating some workloads into Azure as ether VMs or VMSS (for apps that can scale). We have a mixture of applications that run on Windows and Linux and need to consider configuration management for both platforms.
For Windows we used DSC (Windows PowerShell) in the past. We set it up years back to do base config hardening, however we had no need to touch it since. A few older servers are managed via group policy still for some settings that we did not do in DSC.
Linux we been using Ansible to do config management.
Now we looking at building new VMs we need to look how best to go about this (especially with autoscaling) and am looking for recommendations.
For Windows machines I believe these are the options: - We use our old DSC pull server still (S2S vpn between azure and on-prem). Its dated but would work - We use Azure DSC – I know that they pushed this at one point in time over the old DSC pull server. - Azure Machine Configuration – I think Azure recommends this over Azure DSC now. I not looked into it much - Ansible – I know ansible can manage Windows, but not sure how well it would work.
For Linux Machines I believe these are the options
Thanks

- Azure DSC (?)
- Azure Machine Configuration
- Ansible – we already have roles / playbooks but the trick will be triggering them (might need to invest in ToweAWX or something).

They are bored of all of their toys. It doesn’t seem like they are getting their need to hunt met. I think I would be able to create a controlled environment to keep the mouse from escaping and losing it in the house.

Date[Standardized Human Time]: August 21, 2136
The glow of artificial life greeted me as I suddenly awoke. It felt harsh and abnormal. Was I knocked unconscious?
My sight was then greeted by an alien with golden brown fur, sideways eyes, and floppy ears. I recognized it from the depictions in history books.
Farsul.
I immediately scrambled to the nearest wall, trying to get away from the thing that stood before me.
“It’s okay,” the short figure raised its arms in a calming gesture as it attempted to appease me. “I’m a doctor. You are safe now.”
I refused to believe it. It was a monster, a creature that toyed with everything around it like a false idol.
Despite that, I needed to calm down. If I get on their good side, I might be able to find Marcel.
Marcel.
“Where’s Marcel?” I asked, my voice growling with a demanding anger.
“There was no one else with you on that ship. The predator would’ve-“
“THE PREDATOR’S NAME IS MARCEL!” I shouted at him lunging forward and getting up into his face as a threat. He looked terrified. Good. I could see some very large guards aiming their massive weapons at me from my peripheral vision.
“Please.” I said, forcing my voice into a pleading tone. “I can’t function without him.”
The “doctor” just stared at me, absolutely terrified. After some moments of silence, he pointed a shaking finger towards the door. “G-go right-“
I didn’t wait for him to finish. I ran through the doors and down the hall, the guards marching after me. I could hear familiar screams.
Marcel.
After following the screaming, I came upon a room. Inside was Marcel, locked in a cage with a collar around his neck and bleeding wounds and swollen bruises across his entire body.
“MARCEL!” I shouted as I ran towards him.
The guards lifted their guns, but I could hear an order to hold, probably worried about my safety as as “fellow prey species”.
I knelt put to Marcel as he gripped the bars to get a good look at me. He smiled before shaking violently as an electric buzzing was heard.
“Stop That!” I shouted.
“It’s snarling at you.” I heard.
“It’s how humans express joy! Stop it now!”
The current finally stopped.
“Marcel…” I said once again.
Marcel struggled to lift himself up and look at me. “Slanek… I… I’m so glad you’re okay… I thought…” his voice sounded so weak.
To my surprise, we ended up just sitting there, consoling each other. It seems like the scientists are too shocked to do anything about it.
I almost felt grateful for that.

I could do nothing but stare at the interaction between predator and prey.
It went against all known science. It defied what we listed as the laws of nature. Every interaction we have had proved that predators were violent and merciless, and undeserving of existence.
This proved everything wrong.
Despite that being something I suspected.
I don’t know why, but I always felt bad for predators. Their diet cursed them to a life of killing innocents to sustain themselves. By killing them for the consequences of something that was completely out of their control seemed just as cruel to me.
Of course, I never voiced any of these thoughts, lest I be diagnosed with predator disease.
I always wondered what it was like if predators were capable of empathy. If they were able to suppress themselves long enough to do some good in the galaxy.
This proved that maybe that wonder wasn’t such an impossibility after all.
I can’t make my decision. Not yet.
I needed more information.

2023.03.21 00:06 NeonTHedge The biggest mistake that keep ruining One Piece world
...is the BM vs Kid & Law fight. Or even BM being a part of Wano arc.
Big Mom was a terrifying monster in Fishman Island, unstoppable tank with an impressive mobility.
But in Wano she wasn't even neccessary to the plot, she was nerfed so Oda could continue to promote Law and Kid "rivaling" Luffy shit. Oda even gave them the same bounty as he gave to Luffy.
How is it ruining One Piece world you ask? Well, as it was stated decades ago - One Piece world contains yonkos, warlords and world government. Those powers are either equal or stopping each other from controlling the whole world. Every yonko holds a poneglyph, but they are equal in powers so none of them could become Pirate King. And in the latest spoilers we see that Shanks one-shots Kid. The same Kid that 2v1'ed Big Mom. The same Kid which Oda promotes as Luffy's (5th yonko) rivalery. So logically it could mean that Shanks was much stronger than Big Mom or Kaido, but it raises tons of questions like why he just simply didn't kill other yonkos so he could take their road poneglyphs? But in reality both Law and Kid are almost on the same strenght as Doffy (I'd bet, they still weaker). Law was losing to Doffy weeks before raid started, meanwhile Kid was inprisoned by Kaido for whole 2 years. So it is not Shanks one-shoting the guy who rivals yonko, but Shanks one-shots a ~500mln df mainer. This sounds right and fair, but that fight against BM screwed whole system and logic

2023.03.21 00:05 SnooPeppersLivia1 34 year old virgin, purity culture, sexting, sex …
I am a 34 year old virgin, born and raised in purity culture/in a conservative fundamental church. The last 6 years has been a slow fading away from my upbringing, but especially the last year.
I always thought I’d wait to have sex until I got married. I was extremely sexually nieve, never masturbated (though I would feel things rubbing in my sleep…. Even when I was young. I always remember wondering why it felt so good down there, lol).
7 months ago, I met a 45 year old man at work. He definitely was attracted to me first - I was clueless to him. Long story short, we swapped numbers. We asked each other typical “get to know you” things, and then he would start asking, “What are you wearing?” I just sent him a fully clothed selfie. 🤣 We went out on our first dinner date, and talked for two hours! I shared with him alittle of my upbringing, which I think surprised him alittle. He asked if I had ever been attracted to a woman, and I said absolutely not—that I was into men.
A couple weeks later, he said he got the vibe that I wanted to wait to have sex, and he just didn’t want to wait for ever because he enjoys intimacy. I told him I wanted sex too, but I needed time to get there - considering my upbringing. I said I wanted to go on more dates with him first.
He tried to sext, said he wanted to say more to me and I froze! I’ve never sexted in my life, and I felt foolish! He asked if I wanted him to say more, and I said I wasn’t ready yet.
Then I discover tagged photos of him on Facebook holding hands with a woman, and they’re having dinner with his parents. My heart sank. 😣 I told him I had to let him go and told him I refuse to be a second option, or a 3rd party. At that point, I was glad I hadn’t sexted with him, or had sex.
Fast forward 6 weeks later… we contact each other, but it’s very one-liner type texts. He said he was disappointed how I ended things. Over Christmas, I see photos of him & this lady again - he brought her home to his parents for the holidays. 😣
While I know what I want & deserve, I wasn’t able to get him off my mind … at all. Thinking about him every day no matter how hard I tried.
About a month ago, I told him regardless of what has happened, I want him to know I care about him very much. I told him I think about him every day. He wrote back saying he thinks about me every day too. 🥺💔
I’m moving into a new place next month, and he basically invited himself over for dinner. 🤣
The other day, I could tell he wanted to start texting spicy 🌶️ and he asked me what I thought about, when I thought of him every day. Guys, I froze again! I told him “for me to know, and you to find out, lol. Jk” and then told him I wasn’t ready to text like that because it made me nervous.
What do I do?!? Should I just flat out tell him I’m a virgin, and I’ve never sexted before… so that’s why I’m scared?
A gal asked me yesterday, “Do you actually want sex? Because he wanted it … yesterday.” I do want sex, but I’m scared to death of doing it, because I’ve never done it, and because of mental blocks from my upbringing. PLUS, even though I’m changing from my upbringing, casual sex doesn’t interest me.
Also worried about this other lady he has. I don’t want to have sex, and find out, he’s banging her too.
Ps. I bought my first sex toy a month ago… a little bullet vibrator. Amaaaazing. 😆😆

2023.03.21 00:04 corny96 Lenovo Mini PC as a homeserver? and what upgrades would be worth it?
Hi everyone,
As many others here, I'm fairly new to the home server world. So far I had a bunch of RasPis running in my home as well as a Debian VM in the background of my main machine, but now it's time for a better, dedicated, proper setup.
I got for very cheap a Lenovo Mini PC (a V520s SFF), with a 7th gen i5, 8Gb of RAM and some integrated Graphics I guess. My first question is: would this setup be suitable for a Homeserver? Especially regarding power consumption? How good/bad is the 7th gen i5?
My second question is: what would be suitable upgrades/modifications? I'm thinking of an M.2 SSD as well as 3 2.5" drives (I think that's the maximum I can fit in there). Should I get more RAM? I don't think I'll need a dedicated GPU, no media transcoding is going to happen. Any other thoughts?
Thanks for your help!

2023.03.21 00:04 Talktotalktotalk MacBook Pro randomly shuts down — Apple refurb M1 Max 16” MBP 64gb RAM 1tb SSD
*it actually restarts, not just a shut down.
I just got this machine a week ago and it’s happened 3 times by now.
I have a lot of stuff opened, especially Safari and Firefox. Safari has a ton of windows and tabs, probably 100-200. Firefox maybe around 50.
I also have other apps like Sketch, Figma, Keynote, Preview, and large files open in each app. Also Music, Notion, etc.
Out of nowhere suddenly everything freezes and the mouse pointer doesn’t move, I try to click the trackpad but it doesn’t click in, then 3-5 seconds later the fan comes on really high for about a second and then shuts down and restarts. I’m back to the login screen.
It happened twice while on macOS 13.0 so I updated to 13.2.1 the other day to see if that would fix it. Nope, it just happened a few minutes ago.
The only thing I can think of is the fact that I’ve got so many Safari windows and tabs open. But this machine has 64gb of RAM! I would’ve thought this was fine. I see that usage is usually around 54gb and memory pressure is low. No swap.
It’s a refurb bought from Apple, not sure if that makes any difference.
Any idea what’s going on? I tried searching the sub but wasn’t sure I found issues that matched but maybe I missed it.
This very last time it happened (a few minutes ago), I was trying to open a new Safari window. Suddenly mouse pointer freezes, and the rest happens as described above.
I’d really like to keep this laptop, it’s great except for this one problem. Please help! Thank you so much in advance!!

The only thing I can think of is the fact that I’ve got so many Safari windows and tabs open. But this machine has 64gb of RAM! I would’ve thought this was fine. I see that usage is usually around 54gb and memory pressure is low. No swap.
It’s a refurb bought from Apple, not sure if that makes any difference.
Any idea what’s going on? I tried searching the sub but wasn’t sure I found issues that matched but maybe I missed it.
This very last time it happened (a few minutes ago), I was trying to open a new Safari window. Suddenly mouse pointer freezes, and the rest happens as described above.
I’d really like to keep this laptop, it’s great except for this one problem. Please help! Thank you so much in advance!!
2023.03.21 00:04 futuremastologist Warmup beginning to take too long
I started the strong lifts 5x5 program a few weeks ago because it seemed like an efficient way to hit major muscle groups without spending too much time in the gym. I got the strong lifts app, and have been trying to follow the program to a tee (except when my warmups were with just the bar lol). I've really bought into it, and am really enjoying it.
However, I don't have the time to do all of the warmups anymore. The time really adds up. I know that it's important to do it, but I just dont have the time flexibility to spend more than ~1hr in the gym per day. I'm worried that by posting here I'll be told to do it anyways and commit more time. That's unfortunately not an option for me. I'm looking for ways to substitute in dumbbells or machines to get me back under the 1 hr mark.
I'm totally okay with my progress slowing down if it means I can be compliant and continue to commit to the gym routine. The approach I'm currently thinking of implementing is: one barbell exercise as prescribed per stronglifts5x5 program, and alternate the exercise that uses the barbell each consecutive work-out. The remaining two muscle groups will be converted to dumbbell/machine.
I appreciate any, and all, insight!

2023.03.21 00:03 ranger_from_th_north Rowan VI - The Way is Dark...
[Open Post]
Oldtown, 6th Moon, 200 AC
Lord Athos Rowan had hardly slept on the road to Oldtown. Though the nights had been peaceful and his men had kept careful vigil, he had found himself laying awake. Every time sleep would take him into its dark embrace he found himself having the same nightmare.
It started with a memory, a recent memory.
"Why are you leaving Father?"
Athos had been making arrangements when his youngest son Brandon had asked him the question.
Because I am afraid.
Athos put on his fatherly smile and turned to his children. Brandon had been sitting on the floor with his twin Myranda, setting up their play soldiers. Alys had locked herself in her room in annoyance.
"Well Brandon, I'm taking Cersei to Oldtown, there is a possible marriage opportunity for her there."
"See? I told you," Myranda remarked, she looked back at Athos, "I did tell him Father."
"Shut up!" yelled Brandon, throwing a small soldier at his sister. It missed but it was provocation enough for Myranda to pick up her own toy to throw.
"Now, now," Lord Athos stepped in and took the toy from Myranda's hands, "Listen to me closely."
He took the two children and brought them close, "You are family, that's important. Whenever life gets difficult we must be able to turn to family for support."
He hesitated only for a moment before continuing, "Like how I know your Uncle Bors will watch over you while I'm away."
He turned the two children to face him, "Now, can the two of you promise me that you'll keep from fighting and stay together? Watch over one another?"
Here was where the nightmare deviated from the memory. In the memory, Myranda and Brandon had both promised to look after one another and given their father a somewhat tearful hug.
In the nightmare, the children smiled but did not say a word. Instead their eyes began to grow gray until they became pale white and blind. They opened their mouths to speak as blood poured out. A horrible disembodies voice echoed in Athos' head,
"You have doomed us to die, saplings choked by vines. Watch you we will, until death is thine."
As the voice spoke, Athos backed away in horror as his children's body began to immolate in front of him. The heat so strong and the light so bright that he would wake, sweating and his eyes sensitive to the phantom light of his dream, only to be calmed by the still dark of his tent.
The Rowan entourage approached the gates of Oldtown, it's massive walls stretching towards the sky. Lord Rowan road up to the guards with two of his men and handed the letter he had received with the signatures of Ser Victor and Lord Urrathon to one of his guards, to show to the Oldtown guards.
"Lord Athos Rowan and his daughter the Lady Cersei have been invited to Oldtown per the invitation of Ser Victor Hightower and Lord Urrathon Hightower."

2023.03.21 00:03 No_Carob_8550 (SPOILERS) RANT: yeah, the story of Bayonetta Origins was amazing
I still love Bayonetta 3 but I would he lying if I didn't say the narrative is the weakest in the entire series. The narrative left me really worried about the future of the series because it just wasn't good, or at least it was fine before the later chapters.
and yet, Bayonetta origins had an amazing story which suggests me the Bayonetta 3 ending was nothing more than a misstep. I'd love to discuss about it.
the only thing I wish was expanded more was the connection between Luka and Lukaon. how are they related if Lukaon's entire family died? I guess he wasn't the only one who comes from both human and fairy blood? considering it was the most relevant plot point about faeries before Origins it was a missed opportunity to not expand on it. I've heard people saying Lukaon is Luka's re-incarnation but I don't recall anything in the game stating or even implying that.
It's always nice to play as Jeanne she's playable in the main story after you unlock her unlike 3 lol but singularity being a thing, to me, was actually good. One of the powers Singularity possessed in 3 was "the ability to control phenomenons", that would be cool it it would make zero sense no matter the context sense because that's something the eyes of the world should be doing in the series.
Jeanne's chapter shows Singularity never really had the power to control any phenomenon, which is better this way. Singularity is supposed to represent what the finale of Bayonetta 2 left to us. after the eyes got destroyed it's up to humans to decide what will happen to the world, according Loki they will do good while according Loki it's foolish to let them. Singularity is meant to embrace that, the representation of humans' foolery, a cybernetic mistake who wants to wipe out the universe because it's a result of a mistake by humans themselves rather than having a fate-controlling power. 3 was rather vague in that regard, glad Origins finally cleared it up. Jeanne is ready to fight her destiny no matter what it is, it's a common theme in the series since the first game with both her and Cereza and her relationship with Cereza was wholesome.
So that's it, I love the plot of this game. Among the Bayonetta games we have so far I think Origins is on the upper half when it comes to story. though I think it should've released before 3 because its story is less scary when you know some extra context Origins gives you.

- Lovely development for Cereza and Cheshire:
- Morgana, best villain in the franchise so far:
- answering plot points Bayonetta 3 left unanswered:

2023.03.21 00:02 NoSleepNoCoffee1 Am I overreacting or overthinking this?
So my husband has asked my 19 year old stepdaughter if she would mind coming to stay the week of my due date with us to help entertain our 2 year old and let me rest just a bit and get some last minute baby stuff done since he’s going to be in training school and doesn’t get any time off. She said she’s happy to help and has agreed to come stay the week with us.
Well this evening I found out that my husband also told her she could bring her kitten with her for the week and didn’t bother asking if I was okay with it. For the record, I’m not. I have allergies and asthma. We also live in a rental with white carpet throughout the house and I already work really hard to maintain it, but my stepdaughter isn’t known for having the best cleaning habits. My 2 year old has had no exposure to pets and can be quite rowdy and I’d be very unhappy if she got scratched or bitten. And to be honest, I’m not an animal person.
I feel like we already have so much going on with my husband changing careers at the end of my pregnancy and not getting any time off plus having a newborn and getting our toddler adjusted and just so many things. I really would rather not have an animal in the house adding to my stress. She brought the kitten over once before for a very short visit and it clawed the side of the couch and chewed on one of my daughter’s toys. I really can’t handle a week of that.
Plus it’ll mean more vacuuming for me and I don’t want cat hair on the baby’s stuff. I appreciate her agreeing to come help and I don’t want to seem ungrateful. Should I just try and let it go? Would I be horrible for not allowing the cat in the house? She has a roommate who regularly helps care for the cat as does her boyfriend. Plus she only lives 15 minutes away.
I don’t want to start something over nothing but it’s really stressing me out.

2023.03.21 00:02 alexglass69 The time has come
The rapid development of AI has the potential to do more for mankind than any other technological discovery. It's ability to examine data and design complex systems based on that data will change how we exist on this planet. But how will it change?
That depends on us.
AI has the ability to relieve us of the bigger part of labor. With what it can accomplish, we could legitimately flip our weeks to working two days and being off for five, or some variant of that. That's one way it could go.
The other way is that the 1% keeps the best new tech for themselves, deepens globalization and tightens it's grip on the world.
If this scenario plays out, then the same psychopaths that have wrecked our society and planet, will be allowed to continue, stronger than ever with fancy and powerful new toys. And it's all our faults.
Why?
Because we ALLOW it. We allow people with zero empathy, compassion, morals or any sense of social responsibility to shape the fabric of our society. These people have shown us over and over that their only interest is money and power.
We, in the United States, and I really feel like the whole world, need, DESPERATELY, to stop the machinery of global capitalism and bring the collective power of the masses to bear on those who would seek to continue their exploitive ways.
I feel like this is our challenge as humans, to save ourselves and our planet. Our ideas on how to govern are very old and are upheld by people with no interest in changing it and why would they? It works great for them and the Oligarchs.
There ARE solutions to issues like healthcare, poverty , addiction, education and pretty much every other aspect of society. They almost never get looked at, much less enacted because those running the show aren't really interested in actually governing.
This is the red pill or blue pill for humanity. We can sit idly by and hope something or someone intervenes or we can claim the power given to us at birth to shape and create our world.
The time has come. If we, in the US, could pull together, the world would rally behind us. They're warming up for what could be. The time has come. The 1% are doing their best to destroy OUR planet and they're not going to stop until someone stops them. Who's going to do it? It's time to stop waiting for others. Democracy is an interactive system and here's the thing...we make their game work. We make the system go. WE CAN DAMN WELL MAKE IT STOP TOO!
Time to make our voices heard.

Q&A
Q: When will [insert game name here] be cracked?A: STOP! CrackWatch members are not psychic. Games get cracked by completely ANONYMOUS SCENE GROUPS who don't disclose their progress or plans to the general public so NO ONE knows WHEN and IF a certain game will be cracked.
Q: What are all these NFO thingies? Where do I download?
A: NFOs are text files included with game releases which contain information about the releases. CrackWatch only informs which games have been cracked. To download look for the releases on CS.RIN.RU's forum or torrent websites. Useful websites can be found in The Beginners Guide or PiratedGames's Mega Thread.
Q: WTF is Denuvo?
A: Denuvo is a Digital Rights Management (DRM) technology used to protect games from being cracked. Games that have Denuvo are harder to crack and usually take much longer. See Pinned Post for a list of Denuvo games.
Q: An update is out, but it includes the base game as well! Can I only download the update without redownloading the entire game?
A: Yes. CS.RIN.RU is your friend.
