Next (or one after) week looks like a good time to update the servers, at work, to #FreeBSD v13.5-p*.
Only issue that could even /remotely/ affect them -- out of ~6 erratum of today -- is of missing new security certificates.
2.5 Admins 242: Malscraping
Jim's server is getting hammered by AI scrapers and he's big mad about it, why RCS doesn't work on Android without Google apps, a complex Google account issue, and how Jim and Allan handle their WireGuard configs.
I guess this is the moment when I go to bitch publicly about how stuff at the #registrar https://glauca.digital is broken and not letting me do things, and how it's basically impossible to reach #support there or @q who runs it.

Week 10, Backups: Core Concepts
In this video, we begin our discussion of backups by covering some core concepts and terminology, looking at full vs. incremental vs. differential backups and the difference between long-term storage and disaster recovery of files due to more localized data loss.

Still anticipating a major spring or autumn event, "You Have Installed OpenBSD. Now For The Daily Tasks." https://nxdomain.no/~peter/openbsd_installed_now_for_the_daily_tasks.html now also points the user to rcctl for services housekeeping.

Woke up, coffee tasted like regret. Logged into AWS, CloudWatch alarm screaming louder than my cat at 3 AM. Turns out, someone thought turning off 7 instances was a good idea. Idiots. Current status: surrounded by red dashboards, fueled by stale biscuits, and questioning all my life choices. At least the backups are running… probably...lol. Send help and more coffee, please.
Über das Level Snacks bin ich mittlerweile hinaus, es gibt mehrere Niederlassungleiterinnen die mir sogar kochen wenn ich angekündigt vorbeikomme 
Sorry boss, can't work, IT system overloaded
Curious what everyone is using at work to deploy and update software to Windows PCs nowadays.
I really want to look into other options for work soon. We're still on-prem with an AD.
What do you use and it's it any good?

No spring or autumn would be complete without a new, exciting #OpenBSD release!

Oh.. so it's gonna be that kind of a day..
+1 for this really awesome little utility. I can keep an eye on the throughput through my network's WAN interfaces.
It's SoftPerfect's NetWorx. Completely cross-platform, too.
You know, I'm getting a feeling I might never get to work in an organization that uses Debian.
I'm very familiar with Redhat now, the way it uses technology, and its crazy moving targets, but boy, would I ever love to be able to deploy and support things on Debian.
Redhat has a feeling of "Yes, we support it, and we support it well, but our support is all you got!"
Debian is more along the lines of "Yes, we shipped it, and it worked the first time."
well, 6 month contract extension turned in to only 1 month. Time to look for another #linux #sysadmin role and get #fedihired?
