@pamelafox Keep it simple and go slow.
Burgers are a good start. Hot Dogs are also good and basically impossible to mess up.

Keep everything close; tongs, a spray bottle of water for flare ups, paper towels and a clean place to land the cooked burgers.

Be patient with the charcoal. Wait until all the charcoal in the chimney is ashed over before dumping it into the grill.

And, don't forget, the grill master must always have a cool beverage in hand and they get first pick of the burgers.

@latenightlinux Debian for homelab servers. Arch or Fedora on laptops

@tealeg It is annoying to have to manually run fsck after an unexpected shutdown, but somehow it always manages to put the filesystem back into a useful state. I even trust it enough to use `-y`

@corenominal same on my 2015 MacBook.

Am I the last to learn that iocage maintenance has been resumed by the #freebsd project?

This is really good news. Thanks @khm for pointing this out.

@thedaemon I got burned by adopting iocage, and then it was abandoned. I'll go without a helper app next time I want to deploy jails.

I'm glad people post articles like this when their home network gets compromised. The only service safe to exposing to the Internet is up to date ssh with password authentication disabled. Any thing else is too big a risk.

@hpr operat0r is actually equipped to handle something like this, but most of us are not. Thanks for sharing the lesson on exposing services on the internet.

@hpr @archer72
I'm glad you are OK.

I use a lot of different Operating Systems around my homelab including Debian, Fedora, FreeBSD, OpenBSD.

My primary personal laptop is a T450. I realized today that is has been over 3 years since I installed Arch Linux on it. That time has gone by fast and I have had exactly ZERO issues with keeping it up to date.

#archlinix being difficult maintain long term is a myth I keep hearing repeated. I have not had any problems running arch on my T450 and I have no plans to switch.

You can buy lovely unique Christmas presents and support independent artists on the Fediverse by browsing these hashtags:

#FediGiftShop
#ArtForSale
#OriginalArt

Indie artists are having a tough time of it right now due to AI stealing their work without credit or compensation. Buying direct from artists helps the people who actually create the world's art keep going 🙂
