There are DHCP options that allow you to configure the Voice VLAN for VOIP phones.
Why is there not something similar for WAPs (access points)? How come it's not possible to inform them of their tagged management VLAN using DHCP?

Looks like Matrix was able to restore from a snapshot and didn't need to use a dump/restore method, so they've escaped certain death this time.
Now let's see if they learn their lesson and do something about their db corruption / storage failures issues they claim keeps happening
RT: friedcheese.us/objects/91f3c6b…
Oh a mysterious "slow burn" of Postgres corruption? Where is the engagement on the Postgres mailing lists? I haven't seen a single thread about this issue on the pgsql-general or pgsql-hackers lists.It's either a hardware storage bug, a raid implementation bug, a kernel bug, or their Postgres/filesystem tuning is trading data reliability for performance. But they're not sharing anything of value.
Postgres doesn't just corrupt itself. We have several DBs > 100TB at $work. Many people have significantly larger databases...
I kinda doubt their recovery times too. They will probably forget that they need to disable indexes to make the restore have a reasonable speed. And pg_restore is single threaded per table. 1.5TB can take 1.5 days.
blog.peerdb.io/how-can-we-make…
I think they're fucked. I wonder if they will be able to recover without it taking months, literally. They haven't indicated they're using anything but vanilla Postgres.
This could be the end of the matrix.org homeserver.
How can we make pg_dump and pg_restore 5 times faster?
pg_dump and pg_restore are reliable tools for backing up and restoring Postgres databases. They're essential for database migrations, disaster recovery and so on.Sai Srirampur (PeerDB Blog)

Wired, Business Insider Editors Duped By Completely Bogus ‘AI’ Using ‘Journalist’ Who Made Up Towns, People That Don’t Exist
techdirt.com/2025/09/02/wired-…
Here's Wired's mea culpa:
wired.com/story/how-wired-got-…
Techdirt's Karl Bode correctly concludes: "This country has taken an absolute hatchet to quality journalism, which in turn has done irreparable harm to any effort to reach reality-based consensus or have an informed electorate. The rushed integration of “AI,” usually by media owners who largely only see it as a way to cut corners and undermine labor, certainly isn’t helping. Add in the twisted financial incentives of an ad-based engagement infotainment economy, and you get exactly the sort of journalistic outcomes academics long predicted."
The rushed integration of half-cooked automation into the already broken U.S. journalism industry simply isn’t going very well. There have been just countless examples where affluent media owners r…Techdirt

Is Matrix down?
YES
@somecanuckchick like this? mastodon.matrix.org/@matrix/11… ?
Status update: we've restored the 55TB snapshot and subsequent incremental backups, and are about to replay the remaining traffic since the backup. There are still several unknowns, but if things go well the matrix.org instance should be back in 3-4 hours.
FYI the TFWP that the Harper government expanded to bring in more than 500,000 LOW-SKILLED workers btwn 2006 and 2014 to be exploited by employers in the restaurant and retail industries, in addition to the agriculture industry, etc.?

Today I went to a customer site.
Rocked up, no one about apart from a dog who came out to greet me.
Played with the dog for a few minutes.
Did what I was there to do and packed up.
The dog - Ziggy, according to the name tag - re-appeared with a tennis ball in his mouth.
So I played with Ziggy for a few more minutes.
Sadly, I then had to move on to my next appointment.
This was by far my favourite thing that happened today.

I keep reading that the “right way” to use AI for coding is to treat it like a team of junior developers.
Wow, every developer’s dream: writing less code, managing more people, and reviewing lots of poorly written code. And with the added bonus that the “junior devs” you are pouring all this time into, will never improve as a result of your efforts.

I'm not anti-AI. I'm just pro-thinking.
What do I mean? I mean that everyone I know who is REALLY into AI uses it for reading EVERYTHING longer than 1000 words.
This is the mental equivalent of eating only smoothies, because they go down easier.
I say this with love: reading is thinking.
