For those not twittering or bookfacing, I'm going to be changing roles and picking up the Training Manager role at Catalyst.
And with that I need to hand off part of the 'Special Projects' role .. the L1/L2 Desktop Support.
If you reckon you could know someone that has a knowledge of Linux and a strong culture of helping ensure that other people can do their jobs, get them to apply via ..

Back at work (from home) after some goodly days of sliding down mountains with boards attached to my feet.

.. so what was that admin passphrase I used for that?

Afternoon power nap complete!

I spent a good chunk of my weekend watching youtube videos on building workbenches.

It was a rabbit hole.

@vik do you make 3D printer filament?

Do you have opinions on DIY filament extruders (specifically reusing failed prints)

Another damp Wellington day.

Just over 90 bottles cleaned and inspected (some cleaned again) ready for the Oatmeal Stout @occasionalbrewr bottling next weekend. That should allow for a few to fail a 'on the day' inspection.

Labels removed (some sticky bits left). Shout out to @kererubrewing, @EpicBeer & @panheadbrewery for having the easiest to remove labels in their 500ml ranges.

Doesn't help that Bionic was a 'well it works with those tweaks' upgrade of Xenial. Some packages weren't needed, or because they were installed, the Bionic version/alternate wasn't used .. resolvconf comes to mind.

Really should re-examine the what/why of each explicitly installed package.

This can be fun work.

urgh .. working through the packages that FAI and puppet install for Bionic to find the differences we need to consider for Focal

How is that geonet bot coming along?

Then Aladdin Sane

Then Centerfield (John Fogerty)

And finishing with Peter Green's In The Skies

And then some Dark Side of the Moon

Stuff the flatmate still lying in bed at almost 6pm, it has been too long since I have been able to crank some music up.

Tonight's choice, Wish You Were Here.

Back now, thankfully not the 3 hours mentioned here .. https://www.welectricity.co.nz/outages/

Ahh power, it has been 20 minutes, but I miss you so

I really want another coffee, but my shoulders are sore.

Goal Setting: 25 push ups per coffee.

Now that I have had to get a Patreon account .. .. I may end up being more inclined to start throwing money in other directions.

So .. recommended Android App?

Hi .. I'm here!!

Thanks for all the twittering as you were putting this up @aurynn!
