Caulking Tally Ho
skip to 10:30 if you want an explanation of wtf is going on, I kept skipping around thinkin I had missed it, then realized... nope. They just show 10 mins of people doing this task before ever explaining the process.
Shuler King - What Is This Dog On?!
He's wrong. I've seen multiple dogs on edibles, that's not what happens. They get slow, floppy, off balance, they drool uncontrollably, and have an obvious "wtf is going on here?" look on their face. Pretty much the opposite of this dog.
The Worst Typo I Ever Made
The worst DevOps mistake I ever made:
Assignment: On ~1,000 -physical- RHEL systems, change the default run level from command line to GUI (don't ask).
Solution: Hey, all our config files are controlled by Puppet, so this'll be easy!
(If you don't know what Puppet does, it enforces file configurations, so if you change a single file on the Puppetmaster, that change is pushed out to all servers running Puppet)
Ok, all I need to do it edit a single file, change a single number in said file and issue a single command: reboot. Easy-fuckin'-peasy.
The file I need to change is /etc/inittab -- this file tells a Linux system which "run level" it should initiate upon booting up. runlevel 3 is command line and runlevel 5 is a GUI like Gnome or some other tragic perversion of the whole reason you run Linux in the first place. All I had to do was change from runlevel 3 to runlevel 5. And reboot.
So simple; so stupidly simple.
So stupidly simple at 3:00am. When I hadn't slept all night. On a production network. When I'm working from home away from the office. On a Saturday when no one is in said office.
I make my change and save it, then push it to the version control system. Puppet picks it up and pushes the change to ~1,000 physical computers.
Done and done!
Remember I mentioned that I had to change a single file AND execute a single command: reboot?
Here's where things go tragically wrong.
My changes worked PERFECTLY. Everything did exactly what I told it to: Puppet changed the file, and rebooted the servers.
Only they keep rebooting. They keep rebooting over and over and over and over. I can't access any server on the network. Worse, while I'm trying to figure out WTF I did wrong, the 30 minute time-out I'd set on our alerting system, Nagios, expires.
Did I mention that I pushed this change to ~1,000 servers? ~1,000 servers that won't stop rebooting and aren't reporting into Nagios, thus being marked as down?
At 3:31am, on Saturday morning, the pages to ALL the on-call engineers began. One page per engineer per machine. About one every two seconds. And I'm getting paged, too -- except some of the pages are Nagios and some are utterly irate engineers who want to know exactly WTF is going on and I can't tell which is which because I'm getting text-spammed like crazy.
And those servers? They just keep right on rebooting.
At that point, I felt the kind of existential dread that only people who work in IT know -- the kind of dread that arises a picosecond after you've hit ENTER and realized you've type 'rm -rf /' or some-such -- because I knew at that very second exactly what I'd done wrong.
I'd typo'd "5" and made it "6" in the runlevel. And pushed it to ~1,000 -physical- servers. And then rebooted them ALL.
"So," you're asking, "Whyfor is runlevel 6 a big deal?"
Because of this:
runlevel 3: command line.
runlevel 5: GUI
runlevel 6: REBOOT THE FUCKING COMPUTER.
What I'd done was told every production server on our network to reboot as soon as it rebooted, which leads to another reboot, which leads to another reboot, lather rinse repeat.
At 3:45am on Saturday morning, I knew that every person in IT would have to drive into the office, visit every production server with a bootable USB key, change the BIOS to boot off the key, boot the server into Single User Mode, change the damned file by hand, then reboot the server. This takes about 10 minutes per server -- times ~1,000.
I learned a number of valuable lessons that day:
1. DOUBLE CHECK YOUR FUCKING WORK.
2. See lesson #1
addendum: filing for unemployment insurance in Washington state is amazingly easy.
And that was the very last time I ever worked on physical hardware. To this day, if it's not in the cloud, I ain't fucking touching it.
Here endth the lesson.

WTF is going on with these comments? They don't even make sense as a string of words.
Something's Rotten In Iowa-Sanders Won Coin Toss
Those thieving mother fuckers! Are the democrats trying to throw the election?
It's looking fairly certain that Trump will be the Republican candidate. Sanders does FAR better in polls against him than Hillary who polls as a statistical tie with Trump, yet the 'party' is still staunchly behind Clinton and against Sanders. Even when Sanders wins, they make him lose, either by 'coin toss' or by rule vagaries that make the actual vote not matter. It's become INSANE that they are still trying to force Clinton down our throats and ignoring Sanders' popularity.
It's like they would rather lose than have a candidate that they don't have full control over....and that leaves us with Trump as president.
WTF is going on in my country?!?

Glenn Beck's Argument For Marriage Equality is Best One Yet
I know. Honestly, my whole world view is shattered and I can feel my brain trying to escape through my nasal cavity.
Glenn Beck is making a sane argument? WTF is going on? Somebody explain this shit to me! I DEMAND TO KNOW!!!
I.. er.. um.. I just agreed... with a central argument... made by Glen Beck.. ...
...
Twins were born, but haven't realized that
Why is this in the love channel? They are incapable of emotions at that age....let alone even knowing wtf is going on around them, or probably even aware of themselves...
THE UNBELIEVERS - Richard Dawkins & Lawrence Krauss
Yes I saw what people refer to as THEM. I knew of entities entering what some call the afterlife or the breakthrough reality by fission reaction in head experience. But, I thought I was going to see angels or something of that nature.
My breakthrough was terrifying because I had thought I had gotten to know the nature of this drug. And if anyone attempts to play around with it, it can seem like magic, or an alien computer program that shows you the most beautiful landscapes, sacred geometry, infinite electrical grids, the universe. It is as though something is coaxing us into this experience. And what I mean by this is that on my first breakthrough it began normal. I hit it with my EYES closed. Two seconds in there was a huge blue/white pure energy tunnel that appeared and I was excited, oh shit this is going to be huge.
The next thing that happened was instead of going forward like I usually had into the mandala, sacred geometry grid or whatever it is to begin with, it fell to the ground, like a painting in a black room. And I was instantly freaked out. WTF is going on? The place where a beautiful pure light grid existed in an infinite way had just fallen to the floor. Then blackness. My eyes were closed. That blackness began to unfold. That blackness slipped off the wall and unfolded a box that revealed the actual room around me that I was sitting in. Again, my eyes were closed. Then the box unfolded around me. And room went by by as the box trapped me in it and the floor of this dimension was removed. It seemed like a conspiracy,a GOTCHA moment and instantly I thought, why am I doing this again? TOO LATE. I was thinking what the hell is going on, like some alien had coaxed me into this and was capturing my entirety on purpose.
The floor had been removed traveling at lightspeed, like I was a quantum magnet reaching its destination somewhere in the middle of the universe, dissolving through unknown dimensions, I could never have believed this possible and kept thinking, HOLY SHIT, ITS REAL. The box came undone as everything around me was destroyed like all nuclear bombs had gone off on Earth. Then the frequencies began, like a jet engine taking off. There was no way I was going to survive this. From a low drone to the most high pitch sound I had ever heard it blasted me apart. I died. I died materially and consciously. I splattered the instant that frequency reached its unbearably powerful threshold. SPLAT. Up until this point, from my room to this point. I had been literally screaming for dear life in my head. Like I never had before, not like a rollercoaster but holy shit, I am going to die. My subconscious melted completely whilst I saw the quantum physiology of the space around me. Something there was physically turning off my consciousness. And then it went dark.
And then I woke up. And they were there. And at the time even in another life, in another dimension I was still freaking out and they told me like they do everyone, to calm down it is OK. They are the paradox. They are either the root of who you are or they are aliens that make one sound crazy. They are the ones that give you deep lessons on how to live life and yet, you see, we are here talking about them and that makes us sound absolutely batshit crazy but anyone who has seen them will say. THEY WERE FOR REAL with all of their being. And then you ask, so who are they? My main concern has been forgetting them and concentrate on what they taught me. Nothing could have ever prepared me. And actually do not wish for any atheist to do this.
But, if they must go around acting like they know something for fact that cannot be proven, that there is a God or not, well they are just about as good as someone like me taking a drug and coming back saying something is real when there is no way to prove it is real. The main diffierence being I SAW it, I FELT it, I HEARD it. And no Christian in my own personal knowledge has seen, heard, or felt something on this level, and to me certainly means atheists are flat out wrong, like I said I was agnostic. And I have been atheist for long stretches of life. But, like I am saying. It could be aliens out there trying to guide us into its vortex and steal our souls because we venture into a new frequency we normally do not. It could be just a psychedelic and all those percentages of brain activity we do not use creates an infinite experience, a huge puzzle that the brain likes playing with itself and it plays it out with you and you just have to go along for the ride, no turning back. It could be the program that we receive upon birth and death. I have no idea of what this shit is. Except, that it has been used for thousands of years in the Amazon with expert shamans and that it challenges the very seat of atheism and challenges the participant on the grandest scale. It is one whacked out puzzle. But, so is the universe and consciousness.
e^^ Thanks for sharing your Dimty reflections, nothing quite like standing in that temple-Did you ever talk to the entities that reside in that space? There's an intelligence there that's not an wholly subjective, associative conjuring of the mind-I know it's a consciousness outside of oneself, maybe a higher self-It's sentient and outside of the realm of any other psychoactive subs I have ever taken.
My first DMT trip I flew through a huge, smiley-face grid (I think I had just seen the Watchmen) before I reached something I did not recognize from all my flight time till then.......Great stuff...Life-affirming and purgative and, you can do it on your LUNCH HOUR!!
Assassination attempt goes wrong in Sofia!
Well, take this with a grain of salt, but the supposedly bulgarian commenters on the Reddit thread are fairly certain that this was staged.
And it was a pellet gun? Seriously wtf is going on in Bulgaria.
Wikipedia has this to say "On January 19, 2013 was staged assassination of Ahmed Dogan to raise the rating of the party." I'm guessing there will be a few edits of that page before things settle down.
Personal Queue Videos question (Sift Talk Post)
In 2008 there was some debate about the practice of requeueing by killing and resubmitting videos that failed to reach the 10 vote limit until they did.
I'm also fairly certain it's been raised in sift talk before, and in profile conversations. Personally, I find it directly in contrast to the entire point of the unsifted tab to kill and resubmit something when there is a system set in place for promotes. It's not quality control if you keep resubmitting something that has been tried and failed, like in the case of this video that requeued six times before there was a discussion about it, now gone though since it was before the siftpocalypse: http://videosift.com/video/Resident-Evil-4-WTF-is-going-on
Here's a sift talk discussion on the *requeue command, which in practice is exactly like killing and resubmitting: http://videosift.com/talk/Introducing-Beggars-Corner

Thanks @RFlagg, but I still don't understand wtf is going on.
Thanks for not making it easier for me to understand. I hope you get as many views as there are people cheering in the video. What's happening in the video? whotf cares! People who don't know what is going on can go f* themselves!
