 @2461f92c that's what I always thought ... This didn't occur today.

 @573d6b89 which shows me

ssh@   ssh.socket

and when I enter on ssh:

Synchronizing state of ssh.service with SysV service script with /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install.
Executing: /lib/systemd/systemd-sysv-install enable ssh

And I *really* wasn't wanting to see something re SysV service scripts...

 @7528010d that's where most of my pain starts, right! 
 I mock Windows but:

apt install ssh-server

(sorry doesn't exist, it's called openssh-server)

apt install openssh-server

(installed)

systemctl enable --now openssh-server

(haha, doesn't exist)

systemctl enable --now sshd

(boo you suck)

systemctl enable --now ssh

(congrats boy)

 @93a8f0c3 I seem to recall you were toying with RISC recently. This might be your cup of tea:

 Lovely snippets by @707f5f57 again, and my favorite is "systemd service: ExecStartPre as root"

 Again, Julia brilliantly explains a topic. This time: In a git repository, where do your files live?

 Seeing as the default in your currency picker is "US dollar" I am going to assume this isn't malice.

 @83670d6e isn't it! 
 Apropos old box of staples, @3d6b44f5, I also have staples from the 80s, and this beast, which decorates my desk, eats them. Very slowly.

My father had this stapler on his desk ever since I was a little boy, and boy was that a while ago.

I just checked the base. It's an Ace Aceliner Model No 502 Stapler which must date ca. 1970.

 OK, I'm gonna confess right now because you're bound to find out some way or another sometime, right? When did this type of secret stay secret? Remember "I did not have sex with ..."?

So I just purchased a Packt book.

 IMO one of the most idiotic things he did (and the list is veeery long) was to rebrand Twitter in such a way as press now have to write:

 Y'all know the drill: see a good blog post (blogticle), check the blog whether there've been more of them and if so, add it to the RSS feed list.

 Lightning connectors feel much better to my hands than USB-C, and don't bother to @ me.

 @707f5f57 eine für mich schöne Abwechslung war es manchmal ein Video call zu machen (Thema weitestgehend egal) mit eingeschalteter Kamera. Vielleicht hilft das.

 @c631eea3 and particular thanks for making it clear discourse (Ansible forum) has a mailing-list mode; I glanced for it, but didn't immediately see it.

 Amazon offering I get a video game at the end of an order I submit.

They know I've never looked at a game in their store. They know I've never glanced at a game on Prime. They know I've never bought a book on games from them. They can guess, I'm not fucking interested in games not have I ever wanted to gift one.

That's AI.

 'Cash, check or charge?' I asked, after folding items the woman wished to purchase.

As she fumbled for her wallet, I noticed a remote control for a television set in her purse.

'So, do you always carry your TV remote?' I asked.

'No,' she replied, 'but my husband refused to come shopping with me, and I figured this was the most evil thing I could do to him legally.' 
 I just heard an American say ‘adoo’. I’ll admit it took me a few moments, but I guessed the meaning from the fact they were leaving. 

I believe the word ought to have been ‘adieu’.
