People shit on it but there’s a lot of good open-source tooling that supports it.

There are nist l1 profiles

Tutorials and guides for everything

etc

Part of being a good sysadmin is knowing when not to reinvent the wheel. Ubuntu has a lot of options for vetted, hardened, “other people’s wheels.”

Also, for posterity, the competent ones are running the headless, server version of Ubuntu. (As opposed to the bloated mess that is Ubuntu Desktop). The server version catches a lot of flack it doesn’t deserve.

Code rewrites are always going to have growing pains. Rewriting gnu-corrutils in rust is a noble effort.

Microvms or containers could give you external control of the networking. Then you would put whatever you want behind warp inside the warp container/vm.

+1 to this observation. I run zfs arrays at both home and work and it’s way more likely that your controller is flaking than you have that many simultaneous drive failures.

The unfortunate reality though is that you can’t trust the current copy of this data, even the snapshots, unless the restore passes a scrub post-restore.

Less cynically, I believe the argument in scripture is the inverse. Man was created in god’s image therefore we probably inherited a lot of properties of the devine.

Depending on when you were born: Class of '09

I’m not sure how it would hit for non-millenials but if you went to school in the early aughts the entire series is great.

I switched to Niagara a few years back because Nova didn’t have good support for foldables and tbh I haven’t looked back. It’s very different but once you get used to it it’s much faster than a traditional launcher.

Advertising is a core funding model for a lot of businesses. There is the legitimate the argument that upending it now could lead to the collapse of a lot of the tech sector. While I do believe we never should have gotten here in the first place, we should be cautious and methodical when unwinding it. We don’t want a recession, and we need US businesses to be able to compete on the global stage.

My personal favorite is the “companies are obligated to support it forever, or open source the server software hosted by a third party, hosting paid for up front for at least a year.”

They get to keep my money forever don’t they?
