What Are You Doing Right Now
- 
 Time for breakfast beers, bacon and eggs, and episode 321 of MST3K. Happy whatever you celebrate this time of year. 
- 
 @rojoloco Festivus for the rest of us! 
- 
 I just picked up Laura's gifts. I had to order them awhile back and just picked them up today. A big Michael Kors purse and matching wallet. That's literally all of my Christmas money but I know she will love it. 
- 
 Doing practice labs. 
- 
 Learning about SaltStack pillars, how to encrypt them, and how to reference them in state files for passwords and keys for example. 
- 
 Going to install nginx and use it for SSL certification on my web servers. First time needing to do it 
- 
 I'm almost tempted to learn software engineering just so I can have something real for KVM management and backups. oVirt is a good start, but it's not exactly the best way to go about it for SMBs.

 @tim_g Sounds more nifty than learning about creating and mounting nfs shares

A good idea. I'd be starting at level 0 with learning how to use and configure salt. Then, I can learn how to do [insert useful task here]. 
- 
 Finally got SaltStack Pillars working with GitLab on my VPS. (the "info: some data" is from the test pillar)  
- 
 My biggest hic-up was that I was editing my custom.conffile locally via Vi... I forgot I was managing it from GitLab LOL. After that, it started working.Explains why my changes never stayed. 
- 
 Lots of cooking going on here. 
- 
 Just getting my morning coffee.

 @scottalanmiller said in What Are You Doing Right Now: Just getting my morning coffee. Just finished cup 1 here. Starting on the second one. 
- 
 Playing with creating volumes with LVM and creating NFS shares while waiting to hear from my parents. 
- 
 Merry Christmas, everyone. Yes, it's really me and I'm still alive - more or less. 
- 
 Taking my daughter clothes shopping. 
- 
 Driving home 
  
- 
 @jaredbusch drive safe, happy Christmas Eve.
