Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Thursday, 31-Mar-2016 13:48:41 EDT Jeff Ratliff I would be glad to give you my eagles ration for the rest of my life. I had them on cassettes in the 70s but not so into it now. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Tuesday, 29-Mar-2016 15:14:22 EDT Jeff Ratliff I did similar once. I had a switch whose brain was so small I had to telnet in every 5 minutes and dump logs to find an error. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Friday, 25-Mar-2016 15:37:28 EDT Jeff Ratliff I always end up back on Debian. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Thursday, 24-Mar-2016 13:35:54 EDT Jeff Ratliff My new job pays in real Sysadmin dollars. I should do some of this myself. It's long overdo. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Thursday, 24-Mar-2016 12:27:46 EDT Jeff Ratliff I do it infrequently enough that it's kind of interesting to relearn. But no, I wouldn't call it fun. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Tuesday, 22-Mar-2016 21:16:10 EDT Jeff Ratliff Oh. I forget about modern technology sometimes. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Tuesday, 22-Mar-2016 11:08:38 EDT Jeff Ratliff nujabes seems to be a thing you pay a lot of money for or acquire in violation of copyright. But sometimes quality = value -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Monday, 21-Mar-2016 21:52:30 EDT Jeff Ratliff Have not. I'm not very close to the music scene these days. I'll have to check it out. -

Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Friday, 18-Mar-2016 10:51:30 EDT Jeff Ratliff If one more sub is more than I need and that upsets someone I don't feel like it's my problem. We all have limited attention span. -

Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Friday, 18-Mar-2016 09:47:57 EDT Jeff Ratliff So to summarize, VMs are better (isolation, security), but containers let you cram more apps into a physical server and may be faster. -
Jeff Ratliff (gomerx)'s status on Friday, 18-Mar-2016 09:45:56 EDT Jeff Ratliff Yes, Stevie J V-N is usually worth reading. That article reflects what I've read elsewhere as well. -
