   ok, I have been informed that this invite was sent from a group, so deleting it could be tricky.
   
   I don't actually know if this is tricky, but I don't care enough to find out, especially since I re-announced in slack since people don't actually read slack...a separate issue, entirely.

   it'd be one thing if you did both, but to announce in slack, but not cancel it in Outlook is just dumb, but hey, I guess that's a lot of people in the world.

   I really don't understand people. Let's announce on slack that a meeting is cancelled.
   
   JUST FUCKING CANCEL THE MEETING IN OUTLOOK.
   
   Wtf is even the point of a calendar?

   I think this is a bug, but whether in systemd or postgres, I am not sure.
   
   Basically, postgres starts, but replication fails. It is going to fail forever (I think), but systemctl never figures it out.
   
   I should look to see if this is already filed.

   I, for one, am ready to put this election behind us and get back to the important things, like how vim > #emacs.

   I may have asked before, but if there are any #prometheus podcasts that are good, send them my way. I don't necessarily mean for shows, a single episode of a show is good. I can add them to huffduffer.

   I don't actually know who this is because it is coming through a partner, but I suspect we are talking more data. I guess I will see.

   If anybody is on diaspora and knows #postgresql, would love it if you took a look at this issue: https://joindiaspora.com/posts/19344936
   
   It might be a systemd issue, but I am using the official yum repo on Postgres 12, not postgres 13, and not doing anything fancy with systemd, so I doubt it.

    how many machines does that cover? In this case, we're talking about everything #Prometheus collects.

    I just imagine https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmin5WkOuPw is a direct response to Billy Joel

    This seems like a lot: "store up to 2 years worth of metrics."
    
    I guess it depends how much data is being collected, so that's what I need to figure out.
    
    Anybody collecting metrics? How much do you store?

    animals and cartoon characters are lame distro names, but porn star names. Now, that is a naming scheme you can get behind.

    Seriously though, I think the writer himself liked the style, it just didn't fit in the "voice" guidelines...

    I'm not supposed to have alcohol until at least the spring, once my throat inflammation is down.

    or, as you noted separately, just stop listening to RIAA music.
