While many folks say this email is the best part of the year, for me, it's the best part of two years. While I wasn't able to maintain #VeeamLegends status for 2025 H1, I'm proud to announce my acceptance into the #VeeamVanguards program! Thanks to the usual suspects! @veeam.bsky.social

Proud to be a Canadian today!

What a disgrace!

I have never seen Canadians so united. However please don’t lower yourselves. Remember part of this is a simple provocation, mud slinging never works. Instead make plans and toughen up but never lose your dignity even in a bar brawl.

Trudeau has annoyed me about a few things and in my view there should PM term limits but hey at least he does not spray orange tanning goo on his face.

Proud to he Canadian today. My Prime Minister is in Kiev. Easy to be a coward and a bully when you believe you are strong and all around are weak. Bullies beware your stupidity and ignorance allows you to underestimate the strength and the anger of those you are trying to push around.

.... are you fucking kidding me right now

Travelling today, did something I have never done before, bought local airport swag.

What does it mean when you don’t drink alcohol? It means you wake up at 6am Jan 1st thinking wow I am feeling a tad tired but good and ready to roll!

So I was about to throw my computer out the window and then take a sledgehammer to it. Creating a Bridge in KVM for a full bridge network was simply happening. Right at that moment a light shone through the window and down from the heavens and my google search typed Macvtap... and all was good :)

Setting up a bridge remotely for KVM in Arch Linux saying to myself.. "now remember if you mess this up.. you know what happens" Boom!! Messed it up, time to head down to the basement with a monitor and keyboard :)

Sunset from space.

Managed Databases provide an easy button but it’s also quite easy to just choose some outrageous size and cost. Blowing a project up when it comes to how much things cost. We still need to size things accordingly https://reliabilityengineering.substack.com/p/how-to-choose-the-right-instance?ut…

What I really like so far about arch Linux is that it forces you to work. Reminds me of the old Linux days. Yes a lot if things did not work out if the box and needed to be built or configured but it is precisely in this way you really got to understand deeply the OS!

Arch Linux has made me young again!!! What a fun build it the hard way distribution! Lean and mean Linux machine will need to blog about it soon and kvm which is next and why not some kubeadm there too

Morning November

Saturday Oracle Linux oVirt Setup on old Desktop!

AnythinLLM + LMstudio and I just scrapped a blog on the company website and got a very nice Summary of it. The key was being polite and exact, Please.. step by step.. I will thank you for this.. worked better than when I just barked out commands :)

Pleasantly surprised by Oracle Linux oVirt! Veeam Ent Plugin works really nicely as well!

I have created a new project called "Kollect" The Cloud Inventory Project. CLI | Browser tool to to preview your Cloud and Kubernetes inventory of resources #AWS #Azure #Kubernetes youtu.be/dfuQFjl1Tnw?...

A young American told me he found history boring. You might not know history but it knows you and be ready when it decides to confront you head on. It tends to repeat itself. Stasi surveillance Stasi Museum Berlin. Woe to the folks you claim everywhere is the same.
