Farooq sees 71% RAM usage on his poor laptop. And he opens htop and immediately presses M.

The processes are looking carefully at Farooq. And Farooq is looking carefully at them. Who is the Mafia and who is the Townie?

And then Farooq finds out tons of LibreWolf processes, consuming together much of the RAM...

Finally the death knocks the door of one of processes.

Farooq feels a relief. RAM usage is back to normal.

click click click doas pacman -S hexchat... returns few moments later... shoot I installed it on the remote machine...

Let's see the bright side! The remote machine wasn't a server!

EDIT: I think now you know why you need the hostname in your shell prompt.

#ssh #sshhumor #linuxhumor #dailynote #opensource #archlnux #techhumor #linux #unixhumor

New blog post: a joke, before someone sues me.

matchctl: The First Dating App for Linux Users (Because You've Already Mounted /dev/sad)

No GUI. No hope. Just emotionally chrooted sysadmins trying to pipe affection into stdin.

Includes systemd ghosting, Flatpak intimacy isolation, consent-aware SSH, and a Snap blocklist.
Premium unlocks /dev/date and unsafe syscalls.
Profiles are written in ini. Flirting is encrypted.
Love is a systemd unit you forgot to enable.

This is satire. If it feels too real, that’s not my fault.
