I am a Linux administrator at a large, Midwestern University. My phone number is 420-8647 😉. I have opinions.

Not ours, unfortunately.

god DAMMIIT! What in the actual fuck has crapped out now??? I'm getting really sick and tired of all these unplanned outages!

Oh, that's from Lucy's vet. That's fine. Sucks to be them. :)

Yes, ma'am. Even trained for "not sufficiently mournful."

Griffey @nerdrium.bsky.social · 1d

Well done! 🤣

So we're only 7" short now? But yes, thankful for the rain!

Griffey @nerdrium.bsky.social · 1d

Right there with you, sister! Finally got rain up here. Half-full cartridge and maybe a quarter of shake -- should get me through the day. Pray on! 🤣

Funny, I have to look at a 20-year old server today that is literally full of soot. (Fan fire, we think?)

I think today calls for some 10,000 Maniacs. #ShiverInMyBones Yay rain!

Interesting the number of friends I have on FB that are all out of sorts about the Brewers flying the "L" flag. Apparently we can get bitched at for being "not sufficiently mournful" about the team with a shrine to "that guy" losing now too.

I mean, why not?

Thanks. It's a chapter I've been ready to close for a while.

No drama with the ex-wife today, thankfully. She did say "bye, Mike" when she left. I did not reply. I said civil, not polite. Oh, also my dad died this morning.

Grandson's birthday party is tomorrow. My ex-wife will be there. To say I'm anxious is an understatement. (Also I'm sad it coincides with #NoKings, but, yeah.) I think I'm going to make chocolate cookie dough. But not bake cookies. Only thing baked here is me, and I'm fucking hilarious.

Unless I'm not sufficiently mournful about "that guy" because I'll lose my job.

I upgraded to Win11 early on, and I don't understand the fuss. I didn't like the contextual menu changes, but lots of that got "fixed." I'm a Linux administrator and I would never use Linux as my OS for Desktop use. Just my two cents, obvs. 😉

That would be delightful!

I'm going to surmise that the only people that think the "crab walking" feature is cool as shit are the people that would already think owning a stupid Hummer is cool.
