Won’t someone please think of the investors…!

I’m just glad they’re still distracted with torrents…

rawdawg some torrents

LOL! Did you spray 1’s and 0’s in their face when you were done?

Good comments.

Do you think there’s still a lot of traditional or legacy thinking in IT departments?

Containers aren’t new, neither is the idea of infrastructure as code, but the ability to redeploy a major application stack or even significant chunks of the enterprise with automation and the restoration of data is newer.

Lol, even in 2024 with free VPN/overlay solutions…they just won’t stop public Internet exposure of control plane things…

Blank check

Funny how that seems to often be the case. They need to see the consequences, not just be warned. An ‘I told you so’ moment…

Agreed.

Dont we all use centralized management because there is cost and risk involved when we don’t.

More management complexity, missed systems, etc.

So we’re balancing risk vs operational costs.

Makes sense to swap out virtual for container solutions or automation solutions for discussion.

Yeah, that’s pretty risky for this point in time.

I guess the MBA people look at total cost of revenue/reputation loss for things like ransomware recovery, restoration of backups vs the cost of making their IT systems resilient?

Personally, I don’t think so (in many cases) or they’d spend more money on planning/resilience.

Seems like your org has taken resilience and response planning seriously. I like it.

contract “options” are indeed normal. You could also lump in government contracts into the category your thinking about. I’ve never heard of a scenario where the vendor broke contract by not honoring the options. I also have never dealt with a vendor getting bought out and then not honoring existing contracts. Super fun to watch the corporate drama. I personally don’t care for the private equity style business that seems to be an even bigger problem than the investor first/profit centric model that I thought was the worst thing.

This is accurate.

I’d have a hard time trying to even make a case for commissioning.

I have been painstakingly laying the ground work for segmenting network into data center management plane, and future overlay networks for internal applications and dmz / public services.

It would have been easy to burn the place down and start over…

Ever look at emby?

Thanks for sharing this.

@jerry thanks for all you do and the FAQ. Enjoyed them.

You might have to @[email protected] if there isn’t notes on why listed. Sometimes instances get compromised and flood bad stuff. Maybe the instance can be enabled if there’s no other reason to keep it disabled.

I hope someday your feelings of law enforcement can be repaired by them. This is a tragic relationship between people and those that are supposed to protect them.

I hope law enforcement keeps correcting this, which they should have done themselves but instead it took enormous pressure and numerous occasions of crimes by law enforcement.

Maybe one day, you won’t have to fell that way.

Another excellent example of strawman.

I used to think that the type of hatred displayed by the filth guy was a small backwards group ina larger whole, but I’m not seeing anyone else in the larger whole, who might be less ridiculous, saying anything about the fridges. It makes them all appear the same.

This is a basic example of issues caused by not policing extremist views within your own group, or a group being too big and not representing the majority of people’s views.

Until you need one.

This is a total strawman.

It’s an nonsense response to a concept that should be considered reasonable.

Bringing up the KKK in the concept of general problem solving views is a distraction from consideration that reasonable people can solve problems. It exaggerates reasonable people with those who are not.

Nobody but KKK considers them reasonable.
