#rtfm
A reminder to other linux nerds from a 10+ year noob with adhd and aphantasia that RTFM only works if the manual is understandable by all people. (Text is not enough) ^ .^

No you know what that’s great. I’ve taken my ambien 20 minutes ago but let me definitely go into the office NOC to kickstart a firewall pair that you were specifically told to do 2->1 but then when you decarped it you “just don’t know why the whole thing became unresponsive” so let me go into work at 12:30am on ambien because this specialist we flew in from Kiev via Croatia expects the 10 million dollar building to have a working network.
RE: Date and Time with a Static Site Generator
Wow, ich habe heute einen #gpt Open Assistent benutzt, um ein altes Problem zu lösen, das mich schon lange gefuchst hat. Es war zwar nicht so einfach wie, "Hier ist mein Code, was ist falsch", aber es war wie eine Konversation mit einem anderen Entwickler, der mich am Ende auf ein Missverständnis und den passenden Lösungsweg aufmerksam machte. Zeitweise habe ich mal was bei #stackoverflow nachgeschlagen und die armen Fragesteller da wurden immer erst mal angefaucht (nach dem #rtfm Prinzip)
The year is 2023 Anno Domini. You are still asking your users to read the manual.
I worked this out, it was a classic #rtfm moment. See https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/sentinel/manage-soc-with-incident-metrics “Every time you create or update an incident, a new log entry will be added to the table”. So to query the Sentinel SecurityIncident table to analyse incident category or closure you use | summarize arg_max(LastModifiedTime, *) by IncidentNumber.
Update for #lazygit released.

Replying to a Slack message that has a link to official documentation and asking a question that is answered in that same documentation in my new annoying hell. #RTFM
We're having an @oshwassociation #OHS2023 watch party here at @DoESLiverpool to watch the live stream of the conference.
Really enjoying @sjpiper145's talk encouraging us to #WTFM (not just #RTFM)
(And so many #wearables and pretty #PCBs popping up all through the day!)
I managed to have myself temporarily banned from a #subreddit after trying to post a YouTube video that doesn't quite meet the fairly specific rules for the subreddit.
It's probably my fault for not reading the rules closely enough. My kids think this is hilarious. 😂
Ach ja… ich hab mich bei #Kickstarter mal wieder von einem Stück Hardware blenden lassen: Turing Pi 2. Ich hab nun zwei #Nvidia Jetson Nano reingepackt und es leuchtet - Bildschirm zeigt auch was an, aber ganz so simpel ist es dann doch nicht. Tja, da ist dann #RTFM angesagt: https://help.turingpi.com/hc/en-us/articles/8686003383581-Hardware-installation-and-Power-ON Hauptsache Spaß am Gerät!
Do I switch with each aggregation to a new bucket? Or how would I organize that optimally?
*Waiting for the #rtfm comments 🤓 *

I guess the answer is somewhere in #rtfm :
https://man.openbsd.org/talkd
protocols/talkd.h .. client sends CTL_MSG to server of type LOOK_UP .. server searches invitation tables ..
tbh I can't decode this yet
Merke: es gibt unterschiede bei OS Tools: fuer einen Status von dd unter Linux nutze ich kill -USR1 `pgrep dd` , dann druckt dd eine Statuszeile ueber die geschriebenen Daten, mache ich selbiges bei Freebsd ---> Kill User Signal 1 --> wird dd beendet. Jetzt Neustart 😠 und bei Freebsd gibt es dd status=progress #RTFM #Linux #Freebsd
I was today years old that I realised that #1Password can fill in 2FA codes in the same way it fills login details.
I should really #RTFM 🙄
So I'm not sure about other parts of the world, but in Ontario Canada, Emotional Support Animals are *NOT* service animals. To the folks who have them, stop bringing them in to businesses, and claiming that they are service animals, because they clearly are not! I'd suggest looking up the AODA. Finally, A note from a doctor stating that you need an emotional support animal does not turn fluffy in to a service animal. Thanks much! #RTFM or something.
My greatest contribution to #OpenSource so far has been trying to follow the #documentation, failing, and then fixing the documentation. #FOSS #docs #rtfm
@DerApotheker Dass die "präferierte Seite" einem die Packungsbeilage die Blister umfassend ausgibt ist so gewollt und soweit ich weiß sogar vorgeschrieben.
Quasi als #RTFM für die ganzen Leute die sonst nix lesen!
Finally solved the mystery of the sticking iron loaf tin! It's amazing what you can learn when you read the manual #RTFM. Edit: my second choice would've been groundnut oil.

@ironicsans @gruber Is the model itself open source, or was the goal simply to replicate the helpfulness of the open source community?

щойно (гаразд, учора) дізнався (гаразд, просто роззув очі й побачив очевидне), що втулок #music, встановлений на моєму сервері #owncloud, вже має сервіси #ampache та #subsonic з коробки! і це означа, що мені нема жодної необхідности копіювати музику на мудрофон, ані лаятися на брак доступу до музики через додаток owncloud — достатньо згенерувати пароль (в налаштуваннях music), встановити програвач із підримкою subsonic (e.g. dsub) і… ллється музика до вух просто з сервера.
#rtfm, холєра!
@mmasnick @thurrott Crazy isn't it? I follow 96, have 87 followers and we interact very nicely thanks. What I don't get is hundreds of retweets 'selected' for me by Twitter. Thurrot also refers to difficulties setting up. Nonsense, this 70 year-old did it no probs. And linked to my blog for verification. #rtfm
I would be remiss if I did not mention that I am on my second draft of this program. The first draft went far, far worse. I wrote a lot of code that ended up at an impasse where I actually had #roles and #classes in conflict. After starting over and adopting an approach resembling #testdrivendevelopment I find that I can proceed with more confidence and better results, even in a familiar language and toolset. And after some significant #RTFM I understand #Perl #Moose a little bit better.
@adamconover video game manuals used to be so crucial to playing and navigating the game. Until game devs realized that most people didn’t read them, so they started implementing “in-game tutorials”… I miss the days of reading manuals… plus the old manuals usually had cool graphics, and would tell back stories or info about the games characters and world. #RTFM
Learning -
From C- SPC to C -x- SPC in Emacs can be a long curve if you learn by need and obviously, the history of what you ve needed to do with Emacs. Among alternatives is #rtfm by heart and be know it all. I ve no idea how that works for some people
If one reports something on Mastodon, how does this work after the report? Will the admins of the instance with of the reporting user receive the report and has to decide if some action needs to be taken?
Will it be the admins of the reported users instance l, both or even more?
If this is a #rtfm question which fine manual should I consult?
@KevinMarks @mgsiegler Oh myyy. He’s had a hell of a lot more trouble than I had. I too started with that server only to find performance abysmal. Once I switched to a less populated and better supported instance all was well. Yes, the biggest challenge is to pick a viable server, but changing servers is a simple process. #Feditips has all the resources required to help folks onboard. Once you’re in, it’s very straightforward. Like it or not, sometimes you just have to #RTFM. 🥳🖖
This a very interesting contrast to, what justifies, why #rtfm doesn't work unless you have reasonable depth
Grammarly is also telling me, the right pronoun for my sentence depends on how I construct the sentence
That's kinda true for types and functional programs as well
@IPEdmonton Per its documentation, #Mastodon uses the #ActivityStreams object properties “to” and “cc” to determine the audience and visibility of a toot https://docs.joinmastodon.org/spec/activitypub/#properties-used
I would have to read the Mastodon source code at https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon to determine if those were sent and received as updates, though
I didn’t know any of this before replying to you. Remember, #RTFM is a superpower
@allenholub I’m reclaiming #RTFM for those of us who know reading the #documentation is a superpower
We have been informed that the #ChatGPT from #OpenAI is suggesting Flameshot to address certain questions. Although we are flattered and we appreciate the efforts, we would like to suggest this chatbot to read our manual to know there is no -t flag :blobcatno: You can add text via CLI to your screenshots by tools like ImageMagic, but #Flameshot is designed for interactive annotation 📸
So if it doesn't hurt the feeling of a charbot, we would like to prescribe a #RTFM every 8 hours for 9 days 💊
Nice writeup from Joel Labes from dbt on how to move data from spreadsheets into your data warehouse a.k.a. "I've read everyone's documentation so that you don't have to".

166 lines later, my #documentation has shaped up nicely. I have a modified workflow as a result, and added lots of new stuff on my TODO tomorrow. Including setting up a bunch of redirects, which is fine. And a good deal of cvs, which I am not looking forward to.
But next time, if I remember to #RTFM, I’ll save time, and get it right \o/
@ianbetteridge whoa! Thanks for posting this, I guess I should have #RTFM 'd first, I've been feeling very overwhelmed by seeing the same post boosted by multiple people 🙌🏻
