How to Automatically Restart Failed Services in Linux Using Monit

When running production servers, ensuring your critical services stay up and running is essential. Service failures can happen for various reasons — memory issues, unexpected crashes, or resource limitations. Fortunately, Linux offers reliable solutions to automatically monitor and restart failed services without requiring constant manual intervention. Server reliability is crucial for…

Power Integrations: SCALE-iFlex Module Gate Drivers with Temperature Readout

https://www.futureelectronics.com/m/power-integrations . Power Integrations' SCALE-iFlex LT NTC family of IGBT/SiC module gate drivers provide Negative Temperature Coefficient (NTC) data, which enables accurate thermal management of converter systems and ensures proper current sharing. They dramatically enhance the overall system reliability of renewable energy and rail systems with multiple modules arrayed in parallel. https://youtu.be/HDg0zpG5wus

one scene i cannot get over in System Collapse is murderbot and ART, both barely functional, staggering their way onto the shuttle to leave the 2nd colony. MB getting ART-drone strapped into a seat, worried about how damaged it is. doesn't even notice Iris getting it strapped into its own seat (as she worries about how damaged it is). MB and ART-drone, their humans' first and last lines of defense, destroyers of hostile secunits, sniping back and forth as they try to keep each other from shutting down. their humans, once again just barely Not Dead, looking after their extremely badass and very nerfed defenders. at least 15% of my brain capacity is dedicated to this scene at all times

Steph's Year of Recovery

So! Danny noticed that a new face had made it's way into town. Two new faces actually, an older lady known as Dr Leslie, and a girl about his age called Steph.

He first met them when he was at the hospital for one of his parents. They had stood too close to an explosion again, and he met them while he was in the waiting Area.

Dr Leslie was a strict but obviously caring older woman, who seemed to be the one taking care of Steph as a kind of maternal figure, or maybe more like an Aunt. She greeted him simply and then walked away to talk with the Secretary, leaving him to talk to Steph.

Steph was a blond girl in a Wheelchair, and he could see bandages piking out of her clothes as he talked to her. She explained that she had been in an Accident a few weeks ago that left her wheelchair bound for a while, and that she had come to Amity for their surprisingly good Medical Centers.

He and Steph got along really well, and by the end of it he asked her for her Number so they could continue talking later. They stayed in touch, and when she was finally permitted to leave the Hospital, he introduced her to his friends. They all got along like a House on Fire, both figuratively and in one memorable case very literally (Vlad had pissed them off okay!)

Eventually Steph recovered enough that she moved from a Wheelchair to Crutches, and their shenanigans got even more chaotic (Vlad hadn't even pissed them off, this time was just for fun)

The only thing Danny could complain about was the fact that Steph was hiding something from them.

She said that she had been in an Accident a while ago, which was why they had come to Amity in the first place. But Danny knew it was more than that.

He could sense lingering traces of Death coming from her after all.

...

Steph honestly loved her current life.

Sure she had lost everything, her home, her health, her friends, her life, but she had gained new things too! Like Danny and the Gang! They were honestly some of the best friends she had ever had, and for some reason they just clicked with her instantly.

Danny was interesting and funny, Sam was vegan and a badass, Tucker was smart and witty, they all fit with her personality perfectly! It almost felt like she bad been friends with them for years. (She ignored the way her heart skipped a beat when she saw them)

But she still couldn't shake the sense that they were hiding something from her.

She knew it had something to do with the Ghost Problem in the town. And wasn't that a kicker, there was a whole Supernatural Ghost Outbreak in this Town and nobody knew about it. Dr Leslie had said that Amity was off the map enough to hide from Bruce, but she hadn't mentioned it was hidden from the Justice League itself!

Danny, Sam, and Tucker definitely knew more about it than they let on however. Whenever a Ghost Attack would happen, at least one of them would rush off with some practiced excuse and return after the Ghost Attack was over all dirty. She could guess what was going on, and she really didn't like it.

(This had killed her, she had died doing what they were doing, she didn't want to lose them)

Eventually she had to confront them, coincidentally on the same day they decided to confront her.

"Are you Vigilantes?" / "Did you die?"

"..."

"What?" / "What?"

GLaDOS decides to get more personally involved in the testing. For purely rational Science Reasons. And maybe some security reasons. And no other reasons whatsoever. None. At all.

Chell is intrigued. And also deeply concerned. But mostly intrigued.

You know what I find strange about portal fantasy? There’s always this assumption that if more than one person goes into the portal fantasy, they came from the same place. There’s never a second portal halfway across the world, a person who you would be the complete opposite of at home but here you’re outsiders together. Imagine finishing your quest, going home, and realizing that you’re continents away from the only person who understands you, and you might never find them again.

...Sooo this is happening now

Instead of continuing OG in OG, they are slowly moving all of it into NB. You know what's funny?? If they'd admitted right off the bat that NB would be the new main focus, that OG was retiring, if they hadn't made all those promises abt being to run both games alongside each other and let ppl archive their fav scenes and art freely online without taking it down (which is REALLY not that hard solmare) since they don't want to implement data transfer.. they wouldn't be on so many ppl's shit list right now. Ofc, ppl would be mad at first, all the time/money they spent on the game, but they would've been PREPARED for it. Instead, they are still keeping quiet, making these changes, and their playerbase trusts them less and less with each one.

i like to imagine that they’re required to use the bathroom right before patrol every night like it’s on the checklist. but i also feel like bruce is the type of person to make it possible to pee in the suit like tony did with his ironman suits

yeah the issue is that with all the skin tight stuff you would 10000000% see that and so im imagining Dick when he was Robin looking Batman in the eyes and saying "i will kill you" that was genuine because Bruce suggested it because he'd rather brave a public restroom every now and then than THAT

Nothing will ever compare to my sheer confusion seeing that opinion on here unironically. Generally for fandom, I think we shouldn't insult each other's takes but that was genuinly brainless in my honest opinion.

I never blocked someone so fast.

[ersatz-introspective]

something really funny to me about my mom really thinking i wanted to become a therapist because i'm taking psychology & have like 2-3 psych books

i would genuinely be The Worst therapist i simply wouldn't be able to care about any of my patients . i would believe i am better than my patients . it would be a circus .

Netflix's Chaos Monkey: Embracing Failure for Resilience

Chaos Monkey is an innovative tool developed by Netflix as part of their Simian Army suite of testing tools. It deliberately introduces failures into your cloud infrastructure to test system resilience and recovery capabilities. Chaos Monkey works by randomly terminating instances in your production environment. This might sound counterintuitive, but by forcing failures to occur, it helps…
