I have a strong suspicion that the VM running FediMeteo is being throttled.

    I got quoted in The Guardian again, I guess CloudFlare must have been down or something? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2025/dec/05/another-cloudflare-outage-takes-down-websites-linkedin-zoom> “These companies have become too big to not fail. And because they handle so much traffic, when they do fail, this immediately becomes a massive problem”#CloudFlare #Centralization #SysAdmin

    @stefano @christopher I am not sure if I'd say #Linux is becoming like #Windows. I do recall similar statements made on the Debian-User mailing list on a previous release when xorg introduced autoconfiguration. A lot of people were pissed that it was making choices for you instead of manually configuring the xorg.conf file.Honestly, that was a good thing. Painful doesn't begin to describe it but users were unaware they could still hand-configure the file.There has been, however, more stuff added to Linux over the last several years. Call it bloat, call it whatever you want. OSes change. But it has been gradually moving away from simplicity.I miss the simplicity.However, to reply to your original post, coming from COTS solutions, sometimes the vast amount of choice can be overwhelming. For instance, when it comes to #FreeBSD #jails it used to just be jails. Now, it's thin, thick, classic, networking. I understand they have their places but it would be helpful to provide more detailed explanations, tutorials, or best practices for each. The FreeBSD Handbook is good but just scratches the surface but often leaves more questions. It would help with learning and in part...marketing.On a side note: The FreeBSD Handbook is a great resource but there are opportunities to improve it, like tailoring it to new users (better empathy), best practices, architectural examples, and links to additional resources and info.

    okay. #n4sa2e book production is complete. Time to get on #openzfsmastery. Which means seriously getting to grips with #bhyve. Did some bhyve experimenting a couple weeks ago. Got FreeBSD installed just fine. Debian with ZFS, not so much.So this week it's go back, one step at a time. Install base debian with grub, does it work? Then UEFI, then ZFS secondary disk, then root on ZFS.This morning's install ends with a console saying:grub>#sysadmin The Debian installer wrote grub to disk, but... didn't configure it? Huh.Time for some classic #sysadmin headdesking.
