Hey, wir kommen mit unserer wichtigen aber technisch bisweilen sehr komplizierten Arbeit nicht voran. Sie ist manchmal wirklich absurd kompliziert.

In der Wirtschaft: hmm, ja blöd. Woran scheitert es - Ausstattung oder Personal? Oder beides?

Das zuständige Ministerium: hmmm. Das ist ja blöd. Ihr braucht mehr qualifizierte, motivierte Mitarbeitende? Hier, wir geben euch Pensionäre ohne jeden technischen Hintergrund und bezahlen die sehr gut. Deal!?

actually ran pkgbasify on the bare metal install and wow, things worked much better. #headdesk

I'd like to blame this fiasco on self-employment, but I'm also this dumb when employed.

(Edit to add: I am an idiot, this host was never pkgbasified, but leaving for the edification of others)

Weird #FreeBSD #pkgbase thing. #sysadmin

I updated my hosts from 14->15 with freebsd-update, then ran pkgbaseify and switched to pkgbase. No problem.

My jails & bhyves update, no problem.

# freebsd-version
15.0-RELEASE-p8

The bare metal install?

# freebsd-version
15.0-RELEASE-p4
# pkg upgrade -r FreeBSD-base

Und noch eine etwas andere Erklärung, warum Katherina Reiche mit alternativen Fakten jongliert. Wenigstens der Arbeitnehmendenflügel CDA scheint aufgewacht und hat schon mal die Entlassung gefordert. #depol #cdu #headdesk #ReicheStoppen

Right so that’s an hour of my life I won't get back!

Thank you Microsoft for your new “Modernized Cloud Benefits Redemption" process that you have rolled out in Partner Center but not in M365 Admin Center so it is absolutely impossible to redeem any benefits.

We have been using a digital hymnal ever since our organist quit on 1/1/24. For part of that time we used what was hooked to the organ, and it was a major pain in the ass. I convinced the vestry to purchase a better Digital Hymnal that I’ve used before. Won’t go into all the details, but it’s much better and has the complete Hymnal 1982 in its brain.
During this time people have complained that I choose bad, unfamiliar, and/or unsingable hymns.
We hired an organist effective 3/1. He’s playing music I’ve selected (because my list goes through Easter 4.
After service yesterday someone told him, “I just love the hymns you choose, they’re nice and easy to sing.”

Spend twenty minutes trying to debug #freebsd vm-bhyve(8) command-line arguments only to finally realize that the command I typed was "mv" instead of "vm". #sysadmin #headdesk
