Or you can set the vm.swappiness sysctl to 0.

I'm happy with a TFA Dostmann 31.5009.02 Monitor CO2 AIRCO2NTROL Coach. Does what it says and you can get the measurements over USB if you want too.

[yet another reference to Ansible, sorry! :)]

This looks like infinity times better than Ansible in some cases and somewhat worse in others (python.call every time I'd need to access a previous operation's result feels clunky, though I certainly understand why it works that way).

Do you think it would be possible to use Ansible modules as pyinfra operations? As in, for example:

  - name: install foo
    apt:
      pkg: foo
      state: present

could be available as:

  from pyinfra import ansible

  ansible(name='install foo').apt(pkg='foo', state='present')

where the `ansible` function itself would know nothing about apt, just forward everything to the Ansible module.

Note 1: I know pyinfra has a way to interface with apt, this is just an example :) Note 2: It's just my curiosity, my sysadmin days are long gone now.

If I understand correctly, you mean turbo roundabouts https://www.ms2soft.com/resources/turbo-roundabouts/ ?

If so, IMO they're the best thing that happened to roundabout design ever. You do need to choose a lane before entering but it's similar to how you'd choose a lane on a traditional two-lane roundabout. However, then you don't change lanes while on the roundabout, with ~zero visibility to the other lane while turning in a fairly tight circle.

This may differ across countries but around here you're supposed to: * pick the inner lane unless you're taking the first exit (to the right) * change to the outer lane just before your exit

which is about infinity times more stressful in traffic (you have very little time, it's hard to see the outer lane and the outer lane has right of way). It would work fine if everybody followed the rules but 1. they don't since it's unsafe in a tragedy of the commons sort of way and 2. then you end up with an informal turbo roundabout anyway.

A compromise that's becoming fairly common is a "soft" turbo roundabout where the lanes are divided not by ridges but by solid lines you can't cross only legally, not physically :)

> Also, side note, the “copy con outputfilename.txt” idiom is one that I still can’t ever remember how to do the equivalent on UNIX/Linux!
