    The #SysAdmin rule of 80:20 - 80% of the problems are #PEBKAC from people who don't #RTFM, the other 20% of the problem are from people who DID #RTFM and made it worse...

    A #SysAdmin who sits around with his feet up drinking coffee has done his job right. A #SysAdmin who is constantly fixing broken servers or who doesn't have time for new users hasn't figured out how to #SysAdmin yet.

    @pamela My Dad bought a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model III with 48K RAM and I learned how to program in BASIC.

    I spent hours typing in programs, learning how they worked, and changed them.

    I'm a #sysadmin now but I still love to program.

      Proposal to take over a Mastodon hosting service, hosting external instances, but also to enable the creation of thematic sister coop-instances
      from Loomio
      I've been put in touch with Alice, who runs the Mastodon hosting service https://maastodon.net (currently hosting 38 instances with 171,652 accounts, including the mothership instance https://mastodon.social) and wants to either find a way to share the workload, or transfer it to another person/group. Of course, I suggested turning it into a co-op! And here's what she replied (and said I could share here to see if we might be interested): I really like that model and can only wish MaaS becomes a coop. Financially, the service is slightly profitable, the income over the previous two months was 182€ and 293€. The current servers cost 175€/month (209€ with taxes, it could be lowered with some changes) Technically, it works okay but require constant attention (mostly for mastodon.social's traffic bursts). It has some custom software that'd I'd be happy to continue working on, in a less pressured context, and see open-source. (i can't guarantee my time without a remuneration, but i would help the migration in any case). It's all already highly automated, including billing and instance setup. Given the right resources and maintenance/scaling it doesn't require much intervention except answering support tickets. My main issue with it is that i can't healthily handle such pressure alone, i just feel more and more crushed by a thing that's visibly too heavy. I think that while Alice might not have the energy to start up a co-op from scratch, she would probably be happy to transfer it to us (we'd give her something as a payout) and become a member of social.coop instead where she could be part of the soon-to-exist Tech Ops team. It seems to me that this ties in perfectly with our bigger vision for social.coop from the beginning (creating a model for user-controlled social platforms, to then inspire/help others do the same). And now that we've reached 1000 members, the question of scaling is relevant, and I personally think horizontal scaling is preferable (for both technical and social reasons). We could use a similar model as Q&A service StackExchange for creating new communities (see http://area51.stackexchange.com/faq) which could result in sister instances like art.social.coop, science.social.coop, or even aww.social rather than sticking with one increasingly noisy and general instance. As for the external instances already hosted by Alice: https://maastodon.net/instances/ they could be a secondary source of funds for social.coop which would help remunerate the ever-more-needed Tech Ops team. Of course, we could then prod the instance admins to see about turning them into #platformcoops (or becoming sister instances of social.coop just like the hypothetical aww.social) Imagine announcing that mastodon.social is now a #platformcoop! It's no #BuyTwitter but still pretty cool :wink: Another option, in case the whole social.coop collective doesn't want to take this on, woud be to create a small worker-coop to manage maastodon.net and possibly "outsource' the hosting/maintenance of social.coop to that coop. I'm keen to hear what people think, especially those members for which this would mean extra labour (even though the beauty here is collectivisation of effort, it might be 2x more work to maintain 10 instances compared to 1, not 10x), and so will wait for some feedback before starting any polls.

    the #sysadmin friends in my life have been in my thoughts lately. too often we take them for granted and they struggle with isolation and burnout.

    how can we support them more?

    how can we reinvision that role to be more balanced, integrated, sustainable?

    which would mean the ability to use mount block storage on my Mastodon instance servers

    not that those really need it atm, media storage is offloaded to AWS S3 so that leaves the PostgreSQL databases and ES indexes

    and those are not really a concern right now

    Dear #SysAdmin and #NetAdmin community, I have a conundrum. We have IPsec (transport mode) set-up between all our servers; we are also starting to use Rancher. Rancher sets up its own IPsec-protected network (tunnel mode).

    So we end up with IPsec in IPsec, which sucks. Specifically, can't seem to get MTU right, there is *always* a window of packet sizes that simply will *not* get through.

    Anybody knows of a way to tell the back-end IPsec "so, if it's a Rancher's IPsec packet, don't touch it"?
