Had an eventful day at work with a certificate change gone wrong, related to transport, encryption and signing and the world dropping a feature (thanks, browser kids, esp. Chrome guys, SSL isn't just for HTTPS..)
Took a while to figure out how to solve it. In the meantime got "AI" advice which was helpful like a fly on the jam.
At my workplace I am the last of 3 "old school" SysAdmins. I sometimes wonder how they will solve problems like this in the future.
Who will train "AI" ?
RootBadger now supports hashtags.
Unlike platforms that rely entirely on hashtags, RootBadger keeps discussions organized with a hierarchy of groups while hashtags provide a second layer of discovery.
A post in tech.linux.cerberix can now also be found through tags like #linux, #opensource, and #sysadmin, making content easier to discover both on RootBadger and through search engines.
Try them out and help connect.

SSH problems can be frustrating, especially when the error message doesn't clearly point to the root cause.
This Linux SSH Troubleshooting Guide covers the most common connection, authentication, firewall, and host key issues with practical fixes and diagnostic commands.
👋 #Introduction post!
Catholic husband and father of two, 14-year Army vet, & Mac/endpoint sysadmin who writes fiction and essays on the side.
I write The Faithful Quill; reflections on faith, fatherhood, and the veteran's interior life, and I'm working on a novel in my spare time.
Probably here to find: other Catholic writers, fellow veterans, IT/sysadmin folks, people who love going to the gym, and anyone who also dreams of moving to Italy someday 🇮🇹
If you haven't checked out my YouTube channel yet, now's a good time!
Between The IT Guy Show, Live Ops demos, and conference talks, there's a growing library of #Linux, #opensource, and #homelab content!

I have an M4 MacBook Air with 16GB of RAM, am I starting a fool’s errand trying to run my own local model as per the recent Vicki Boykis article here? 🤔

(going to do it anyway for the lulz but figured I would toot this because why not)
I've slightly updated the USBridge interface and made the menu more intuitive. For now, I've settled on a color version of the icons—I think it looks much more interesting than the monochrome green version.
Which version do you prefer?
