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.

made a small amount of progress ✨

managed to hack an existing image for the #Pine64 #SoQuartz blade for running #AlpineLinux and it works!

i felt that the #RK3566 chip was running a little hot so i decided to add a little heartsink as well

did a little test to see if the NVMe SATA adapter works by hooking up two spare harddrives i had, and they showed up on lsblk

now i just need to design the mounts for the blade and harddrives ✨

New update for the state of abnormalbeings.space available on Lemmy, check it out if you are interested:

A proper backup plan, Mastodon update + learning experience, PeerTube changes, looking for mods - State of abnormalbeings.space

lemmy.abnormalbeings.space25/04/05 A proper backup plan, Mastodon update + learning experience, PeerTube changes, looking for mods - State of abnormalbeings.space - AbnormalLemmingsSince the last update [https://lemmy.abnormalbeings.space/post/587275], there haven’t been any sweeping changes, but enough for a report, including one that should put people at ease: Yes, you won’t be raw dogging these services no longer, thanks to greater financial security from the donation mentioned in the last update, I was able to start this month’s budgeting by booking a separate storage for: ::: spoiler REGULAR BACKUPS Until now, my backup “plan” was, “I upload a backup image to a local NAS here at home, that has very old second hand HDDs, whenever I manage to remember”. That was… not acceptable, really. I will now have borgbackup running for incremental backups to a separate storage box by Hetzner (in Germany instead of Finland, for one more degree of separation). There will be separate, complete, incremental backups daily/weekly/monthly, starting today. It won’t guarantee data security on the same level as even more professional services, but I think anyone using this instance or others can rest a little more easily. ::: :::spoiler MASTODON UPDATE Another thing people can probably rest a bit more easily about: There was a minor update for mastodon, which I applied to toots.abnormalbeings.space [https://toots.abnormalbeings.space/home], bringing it up to date to version 4.3.7. Beyond just quickly giving a heads-up to report any potential issues, this is noteworthy, because it came with me learning a very important lesson about environment sanitising, that more experienced folks probably though to be self-evident. You can check out my learning journey here if you are interested. [https://lemmy.abnormalbeings.space/post/804932] Having the opportunity to learn about what are best practices - one of the Achilles heels of, I wager, not just me as a self-taught admin - is great, especially if the learning process and answers can add to the fund of knowledge within the Fediverse! ::: ::: spoiler PEERTUBE CHANGES Videos.abnormalbeings.space [https://videos.abnormalbeings.space/home] saw some changes, too. I, sadly, had to change up the registration process to manually confirming users again, as I had several accounts registering - sometimes avoiding bans with throwaway mail addresses - and uploading at best highly suspicious content that I was not able to moderate due to language barrier, or just videos outright against the rules. Additionally, I updated the about info, structured it more, removed redundancy of the rules, clarified moderation policy and added more contaft info. Changes can be viewed here. [https://videos.abnormalbeings.space/about/instance/home] There’s also been some changes to the landing page [https://videos.abnormalbeings.space/home] - now sporting current livestreams, as well as a separate small section for trending local videos: [https://lemmy.abnormalbeings.space/pictrs/image/55afc263-d0ad-4ef2-8af1-3fc71018947f.png] [https://lemmy.abnormalbeings.space/pictrs/image/6cf5231e-c891-4020-936b-dbd357e795a8.png] Alongside this, I will now start to weekly rotate the recommended channels list, rotating the last row into first place, as to make it a fairer system for channels that ended up at the bottom before. There really is little rhyme or reason to the way I sorted them, so this seemed like a good compromise to me. Also, in good news: the amount of accounts on videos.abnormalbeings.space has ballooned up to 30+ (including 3 accounts created by myself). This is some great growth, and I am happy to say, that there has been some legitimate content appearing on there, beyond my silly meme videos and that one trailer for my by now very old game. Thank you all for putting your trust in me, server resources still allow for a lot more users! (This goes even more so for Lemmy and Mastodon, of course). ::: ::: spoiler LOOKING FOR MODS Realising the user growth on particularly PeerTube, I’d also be very interested in people applying as volunteer moderators. You’d have to have a local account on at least the service you want to mod, plus on matrix [https://matrix.to/#/#abnormalbeings:matrix.abnormalbeings.space] for behind-the-scenes discussion. Applications are welcome on matrix, in the Applications channel! [https://matrix.to/#/#applications:matrix.abnormalbeings.space] Bonus points if you speak other languages than English and German, which I have covered! Currently, it would 100% be a volunteer position. Long term, if this project ends up getting more in donations than the server cost, I’d think it would be cool to share any excess with an established mod/admin team - but that sentence right here should be, at this point, treated as “a random thought I am having.” I can neither promise that amount of donations ever happening, nor promise that being possible easily whenever it were to happen. ::: And that is that for the newest state of the server update. Thank you for reading, thank you for using the Fediverse, stay awesome!

Last night I dreamed I was buying new servers, European ones, based on ARM architecture (or maybe RISC-V, I don’t remember – I just know it wasn’t the 'classic' amd64).
Just a dream, or is there actually something interesting already on the market?

Hey Mastodon, question for my #sysadmin and #DevOps types. Has anyone used #Pester and #PSScriptAnalyzer to set up unit testing for test driven development, particularly on (relatively) simple scripts like you might use for application detection, installation, and uninstallation from a system like #SCCM #Intune or #ManageEngine ?

Apologies for the buzzword bingo, but I’m trying to reach folks who may be following the hashtags, but not necessarily have a connection otherwise.

Hey #Linux newbs

You're probably spending a lot of time beating your head against stubborn errors that just won't go away, and feeling very down and frustrated about it. Statistically speaking, based on my own experience becoming "expert" at this, you're probably feeling this way a lot of the time, and that is not for no reason.

You're probably also wondering when you no longer will have to spend hours hitting yourself in the head with a hammer. How many years of this intense pain will it require?

Well, I'm here to assure you, it never ends. You never stop having this happen. I just spent an hour fighting a samba share to let me write to the shared drive. I did everything friggin right. It was just like the first time I tried to do this. I even did everything "correctly" this time, created a special user for the credentials, made sure it had group writing access by joining it to my user's group... still, permission denied every time I try to create a file.

So turns out that I added james to the movieUser group, rather than adding the movieUser to the james group. all it needed, an hour ago, was that I put those two words in the correct order in my usermod command.

So basically, as you sit there stewing in anger and befuddlement, let this be the moment that you realize that the developers of this chimera are all apes doing whatever they want, and therefore, it is entirely impossible to become an actual "expert" at this, because whatever you take the time to become expert at will be immediately deprecated and moved on from in favour of some other, equivalent drek with whollly different command structures and conventions.

Or you'll just flip a group/user assignment and spend an hour beating your head against your own idiocy.

Either way, the skill you are actually building up is not technical, but emotional: You are learning to feel this incoherent rage and urge to quit, to let it have its way with you, but to continue working through it and trying new things until it does what you tell it to do, even as you feel this horrific emotional state.

That's it, that's the trick to becoming an elite #sysadmin. You forego movies and sports events with your friends, you forego watching that movie or show, you eliminate all fun and sunshine from your life, and you spend all the time you can get putting yourself into this rage, until you don't notice the rage anymore.

Now you are l33t, and vaguely resemble an angry goblin most of the time. One of us! One of us! One of us!
