a lot of people are terrible writers, and as such, the idea that another user can actually write is offensive to them.
I worry you’re right, here; but only in brief episodes. I mostly want to assume otherwise.
I LOVE great writing: proper punctuation, good delineation, awareness of mass nouns, etc. I love when I see great writing and wish I could be as good.
I feel for people who don’t.
It could be regional or arbitrary. I say ‘coding’ a lot because it’s shorter. I could say one is about the keyboard work and one is about the architecture and design, but it’s really the fact that one’s shorter.
But in my environment, they’re interchangeable as much as anything can be. And I’ve grown up using both; even in college in the '90s, coding C and m68k.
YMMV?
Snipe-it failed iso27002 when I last checked.
Butbutbut the name has ‘open’ in it. How can this be?
(I worked on OpenUnix and OpenLinux, so I get it)
I absolutely love the Apple 3.5mm wired earpods. I have several spare for when apple decides it’s bored of them and stops supply.

docker
Heh.
Day job: oneScrote and fucking ansible
Night job: some wiki for the architecture, but just config management for the config detail : we run the docs and it’s done. Thankfully not fucking ansible; because in any environment where there are options, it’s not fucking ansible.
“Systemd is built badly by weaponized dunning-kruger” – pros
exploit [happens]
World: surprised pikachu
33 years with Linux (kernel 1.2.13, slackware). Worked at a distro. Worked in OS security – Unix and enterprise Linux. I helped build United Linux out of the dismembered corpse suse kicked over the fence as ‘collaboration’.
Because of the validation issue in the .deb package format and others, I’m on a mixture of Rocky and Nobara.
I’m subscribed to cloudLinux’s tuxcare enterprise updates for some older stuff, and I can’t recommend it enough. It’s excellent; and if almalinux releases their sLTS distro release and actually covers it for 25 years, that will be such a coup.
I’m worried at the direction Linux has been taken by IBM and I hope it can be unfucked one day. I miss the reliable, fast boots and uncomplicated tooling before this systemd shitshow.
Ansible using SSH
The moment you discover anything else, you’re gonna be so pleased. It’ll seem so modern! So fast!
Check out gatus.
It doesn’t do SNMP. That’s … bold.
Iso27002 says I can’t run this.
West refuses
The hell it did. My country refused nothing.
Mexico? Panama? Belize? Guatemala? Brasil? Peru?
Just keep naming countries. Aside from two among like 30, the “West” condemned slavery; because of course.
I can’t watch. It’s just so much “the pot isn’t boiling; it’s just a little warmer” bullshit - I’m tired, boss - that I need to know whether this guy’s gonna fail the intelligence test before I commit the time.
Please also consider mikrotik brand gear. I’ve been told they’re especially easy to manage as one moves from manual control to something declarative like terraform(opentofu).
weird grab bag
You don’t mention whether that is adherence to the FHS or denial of it.
One of those options is, to be clear, violating a standard.
The CI turned me off though. It’s like they saw how bad GitHub is for CI and said “no notes. Just like that”
And I use the CI config a huge amount.
So lennart personally blocked the revert? Fucking on-brand for all he’s wrecked in Linux.
Is he still working at Microsoft, or was he just too special for them too?
A write-up on this would be very valuable: infra, OS, installation, current config, test queries, etc.
