Upgraded the PeerTube instance at https://videos.abnormalbeings.space to #PeerTube 7.1.
Feels and looks great, and I think I managed to break nothing along the way. I especially love the new feature to easily browse content from a specific, federated #instance
Thank you, @Framasoft and every other contributor on #github - it takes a global village to raise (and maintain) a software.
It's 4:30PM on a Friday, and I'm sat on the floor of a toilet attempting to fix a very broken upgrade of Ubuntu Server.
At least it appears to be *booting* now, so on the plus side I may be able to return to the desk.
#linux can really take you to some odd places. So fellow #sysadmin of Mastodon, I hope your week has gone better than mine.
2.5 Admins 238: Hyperbranded Nonsense
Ten-year-old Chromecasts stop working, movie DVDs start rotting, Skype is finally dying, using ZFS on VM guests and hosts.
@IceWolf@masto.brightfur.netFuck it. How DO you pronounce Nginx?
New post where I list out some of the things I am considering as I am trying to find a replacement for my #email provider. As I am considering leaving #fastmail for a different options that are out there. I am curious if others have thoughts and would be interested in reading my thoughts and reply to my post here on the #fediverse with some thoughts.

Όσο εσείς απολαμβάνετε την δημοκρατία και την ανάπτυξη στην καλύτερη χώρα του κόσμου με τον ΗΓΕΤΗ ΜΑΣ ΤΟΝ ΚΥΡΙΑΚΟ ΠΟΥ ΤΑ ΑΛΛΑΖΕΙ ΟΛΑ, εμείς (και όχι κάποιος οίκος αξιολόγησης) σας αναβαθμίσαμε στην v4.3.5 του Mastodon. #mastodon #mastoadmin #sysadmin
Naive #sysadmin question:
should I source from 'stable' or from the specific version name?
It's a rather general and perhaps philosophical question irrelevant to the specific OS.
I currently have debian machines providing http services connected to the internet.
Currently the sources point to 'bookworm'.
Should I point to 'stable' instead?
Because 'stable' will jump with every new release while 'bookworm' becomes older and older. A release upgrade would be more "concious" then
2.5 Admins 237: Kafkaesque
HP was forcing people to wait on hold for 15 minutes to get support, the DOGE site was embarrassingly insecure, setting up encrypted offsite backups, and mixing SATA and NVMe in a server.
When system administration is not like gardening, it is because I am deploying MailMan. Then, it is wrestling a tentacular sea monster while being mumbled to by a venerable and inebriated UNIX programmer from the barnacled bow of his adrift Sun-2 machine.

Edit: seems like they respond only on TCP?
It seems like nih.gov nameservers are down – unless my euro-commie IP address is being blocked (which would be weird).
Can someone from the US please check?

Did you know? If the user entry in the /etc/passwd file doesn’t have an entry in the shell field, the user gets a Bourne shell. See https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/understanding-etcpasswd-file-format/ for more info.

Arm is going to make its own server chips, WordPress is selling “100 year” domain registrations, geo-redundancy for VPSs, and backing up Windows to Backblaze B2.
