@AaronDodd @macquariebank Yep... We got logged out of all our accounts and the authenticator app and can't get back in. Cyber attack?..

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@johannbg Haha, I don't recall actually, that was quite some time ago! 😊 I'll ask him next time I see him...

@mrda_ @notmyname @barebottle @mattoliverau ✋

Just did my first releases of @ansible community collections, libvirt 1.1.0 and rabbitmq 1.2.0 😌💪

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@ArielRichtman Hmm... does this work?

stat --format=%U $(readlink /proc/self/fd/0)

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@ArielRichtman If you never go back and look at history then I guess it might not matter as much, you just keep trucking along with thousands of messy micro commits all over the place, but I think by doing that you lose a lot of valuable information, not just for you but for others.

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@ArielRichtman Yeah, but I think it helps a lot when you're going back to look at the history and things are neat. If you have a changeset that's 100 micro commits it becomes hard to see what, why and how, esp when trying to work out what patch introduced a bug, using something like git bisect.

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@ArielRichtman I'm not sure what problem it's solving.. Personally, I like the code to be the source of truth. Git lets you put nice, clean patches on top which means the history shows exactly what changed and your commits (and inline comments) are documentation about why and how.

@cloudnull @OpenStack @openinfradev Hello from the Swift track 👋

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

Did you know that the @ansible community libvirt collection also provides a dynamic inventory? It can really come in handy! https://t.co/0w2J00Ycc2

If that interests you, feel free to reach out on the GitHub project. Contributions and feedback welcome! 😊 https://t.co/n7e5FdPNVO

Enable full screen sharing in meetings with Google Chrome (and Chromium, if required) on @fedora under Wayland (and probably other distros) by toggling PipeWire support.

chrome://flags/#enable-webrtc-pipewire-capturer

Thanks to @mattoliverau for the tip!

Quote from a friend who just replaced Windows with @Fedora on his desktop PC 👏🥳😊 "I'm legitimately stunned by how well F35 is working...high refresh monitor, all screens, sound works (external USB audio), Elden Ring runs flawlessly....I'm 100% floored."

Actual, verbatim quote from a friend who just replaced Windows with @Fedora on his desktop PC 👏🥳😊
"I'm legitimately stunned by how well F35 is working...high refresh monitor, all screens, sound works (external USB audio), Elden Ring runs flawlessly....I'm 100% flawed."

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@mattdm @fedora ...or maybe he's realised that he's a flawed human being for not having installed Fedora sooner? 😆

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

@mattdm @fedora Haha yes, maybe I should have fixed that up... should be "I'm 100% floored" 😬

[Chris Smart @distroguy]

Why, hello there 5.17.0 👋 Upcoming @fedora 36 is looking good... 👏

Linux on a 27" LG 27MD5KL monitor with its 5120x2880 resolution at 200% scale is perfection. Fits two windows side-by-side nicely, but also has a decent amount of vertical pixels 👍 So crystal clear.

[Podman @Podman_io]

Podman v4.0 has a lot of exciting new changes to the Network stack. Get all the details here in Matt Heon's recent blog: https://t.co/y18Cv83bUc #opensource #podman #containers
