Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    The I can only recommend you to start automating everything you do, to make tour job easier and make more time to slack 😝

    Start small, and build on that.

    Try Ansible, it is easy and allows you to do some really cool stuff. It helped me migrate 500+ systems from KVM to vmware, where no commercial tool was able to help me…

    Creating automation takes time. I have done it with certain things, but not everything. Some things are just way too complicated to easily create automation for them.

    Though I do agree that things like Ansibel can help and I have been thinking about this for a while, but then I'd have to drop everything else I'm doing for like at least 2 weeks and do JUST that, nothing else... which is not an option currently.

    Plus, there is always the risk of "shit not working" after an update... and frankly, we've had that before and again, I am not getting paid enough to deal with the backlash of things like that happeneing.
