@gotwf said in SAMIT: IBM Is Killing Off CentOS:

@scottalanmiller Yes. This I know. But this isn't bare metal but rather SmartOS hypervisor in a Triton datacenter. So I presume all is atop ZFS. I never delved deeper so honestly do not know.

Hopefully not, as ZFS isn't all that fast. But you need XFS touching WiredTiger... what's lower in the stack isn't what it is concerned with. You still control your own filesystem regardless of what the datacenter may or may not use elsewhere.

@scottalanmiller I don't know how new any of this is, but I'm really digging the transitions and logo stuff you got going on. It's got the RGB feel to it, but not over the top.

All that stuff is done by our marketing team in La Paz!

Looks like the company failed. The domain is gone.

I'm liking these non-IT technician focused videos.

Thanks! I'm hoping to broaden the audience and make tools that IT staff can either use directly by sharing with management or learn from on how to present to management.

Far too often IT is pressured to make business decisions that other business stakeholders should be involved in.

And vice versa, tons of times untrained people with no IT insight or knowledge make all the critical IT decisions and just have the staff classified as IT deal with the mistakes rather than avoiding them.

I would like to say that I have not spoken to people who disagreed with the title. I would like to, but...

Movie looks good too. You have way too much head room though in your framing.
Just angle the camera down slightly so your eyes are above the center of the frame.
It'll look more professional that way.

Thanks, I switched to the media attachment on the GoPro Hero Black 9 so still getting used to that. Overall it seems to work okay, and having a room full of lights helps a lot. But still a bit of learning curve.

My only issue with Ubiquiti is commitment. Products seem to come and go. While I understand not pumping resources into a bad idea, maybe "slow the roll" a bit before showing the masses what you have.
Portfolio expansion is ok, IFF their core products do not suffer as a result.

Man, I'd also like to seem them pump more dev into their Unifi firewalls... Though that ship might have sailed, I think they are going a different route (new OS) for their newer firewalls...

New OS, new hardware.

Episode 6, Fourth and Final one on Crete.... Day Drinking on the Beach with the girls, traditional Cretan Folk Dancing at the Cretan Corner in Aptera, messing with a green huntsman spider in our rental home, and a long drive down the hill to show you where we had been living for almost two weeks.

This episode was filmed on 22 June 2019, all in the village of Aptera.

Already saw the email notice and checked it out. It looks very interesting.
