Looks like Tom's all kinds of FAFO now.

Sucks to have the day you campaigned for.

What if it were 100? Or 1000? or 10000? or 100000?

At what point do you ask questions?

Hi sysadmins, I am thinking of doing a pretty drastic career change. I have 10+ years of experience in chemistry doing bioanalysis and a few years repairing breath alcohol analyzers. I have always considered messing around with electronics, networking, and computers/servers as a hobby and have been using various Linux distros as my main os for almost 20 years.

I have come to see my specialty in my line of work as a dead end. I'm pretty damn good at my job but I feel like automation is going to be taking over very soon, and I'm not that good that I think I'll be in the top 10% that get to stick around and run the automations when the robots finally take over. So I'm considering doing a career change to IT/sysadmin.

What I'd like to know is what should I learn how to do to see if I'll even like moving down this path? What can I set up at home, break, then fix that would give me an idea as to what the sysadmin life is really like?

I'm pretty sure I haven't ever really done any sysadmin type work with my home setups, seeing as I build and set up services I want for myself and at the level I'm willing to put up with. For the most part I can be handed something already implemented and work within that space to keep it going and adjust it to what I want it to do or fit my set up. I can usually find my way through log files and error codes to figure out what the problem is and duckduckgo my way to a fix.

Until you get a chance to leave behind Google's Android operating system completely, here's an article I saw with a few fairly simple things you can do that will reduce (although not eliminate) the ability of Google and others to scrape your data and monetize you.

I already do step 1 (Firefox etc). But looking at step 5, for example, my phone had all those ad options set to "on".

Every couple of days, I've been getting a token invalid error for this server. I'm using Eternity as my app. When it happens, posts/comments won't refresh, and so I switch server instances for 12-24hrs, and then usually it haa resolved itself.

Anyone else getting this?

A federal judge in Maryland has ordered the Trump administration to facilitate the return of a 20-year-old Venezuelan man deported to El Salvador, whose removal violated a previous court settlement, according to an order issued on Wednesday.

U.S. District Judge Stephanie Gallagher, a Trump appointee, also ordered the government not to remove other individuals covered by the settlement.

The class action case from 2019 was filed on behalf of individuals who entered the U.S. as unaccompanied minors and later sought asylum.

I would give the world for my friends. I'll settle for hosting servers and gaming together tho!

Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s wife says she fears for her safety since the Trump administration deported him to a prison in El Salvador.

The wife of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was mistakenly deported to El Salvador by the Trump administration, was forced to move to a safe house with her children, after the government posted their home address to social media.

White House officials have spent weeks trying to justify their deportation of Abrego Garcia, even after admitting in court that sending him to El Salvador was an “administrative error,” claiming with no evidence that he is a violent criminal and gang member.

At one point, the Department of Homeland Security posted online an order of protection that Jennifer Vasquez Sura had sought, but later abandoned, against her husband. That order contained Vasquez Sura’s home address, unredacted.

I made this comic about a random thought I had.
