Just spent a good hour trying to figure out why snmpd wasn't answering. Because tcp is different than udp. #headdesk #networknomicon

Much to my annoyance, getting the #Networknomicon into my personal bookstore is going to be a pain. BookVault's hardcovers are juuuust different enough to make the splendid dust jacket not fit. I don't know that it's financially viable to have the artist tweak it.

I do believe I was supposed to shill the #Networknomicon during that last technical answer, but you know what?

It's Saturday. I'm taking the day off, dammit.

And if you follow me and don't know about the Networknomicon, or why it has a suggested price of $66.66, it's probably best if I don't ruin your day.

Ah, #dnssecmastery2e. The book where a 203-column terminal is just *barely* long enough.

Whelp, at least it's better than the #Networknomicon.

Just realized I have never linked the T-shirt store from my web sites. :flan_facepalm:​

You want the Beastie Scream or Tux Scream on a shirt or whatever? Here you go.

Plus the #Networknomicon art, and whatever else amuses me when the whim strikes.

@sng @mwlucas @benno is is even safe to show photos of the #networknomicon like that? Who knows what might be unleashed if enough eyeballs are cast across is mere image. :flan_nooo:

Today's reminder that nobody knows anything in the writing and publishing business.

I have written dozens of full-size books. Seriously, I lost count at 38.

Yet a full 35% of my Ingram sales are the #Networknomicon.

It's the end of 2020? Time for the obligatory Awards Eligibility post? Here you go:

No. No no no. NO. Nope.

Don't nominate me. It won't help me (mwl.io/faq#books).

Nominate other people.

Why won't awards help me?

Anything I write, I can publish.

I have enough readers that I can afford to do daft things, like the #Networknomicon or #edMastery.

I can execute visions without compromise, and the bills are paid.

What more could I want? :flan_book:​ :flan_trophy:​

A new review on the #Networknomicon!

"Thanks Lucas, I hate it - also what is wrong with you!?" Five stars.

I feel understood.

If you're one of the poor (ex-)souls who purchased the #Networknomicon:

The book's Amazon catalog is sad and empty. It could use some reviews.

Amazon has discounted the #Networknomicon. :flan_piteous:​

What must I price it at to make them list it at $66.66 as Nyarlathotep intended?

Got a message from someone asking if the #Networknomicon was a real thing, or if it was joke vaporware.

Listen.

People.

I might joke. But I will NEVER bluff. :flan_eyes_narrowed:​
