I don’t repost TikToks usually. But for followers of @lisaroyal.bsky.social’s “girl dinners” who also like Star Trek, this is amazing.

Disruption at several European airports after a cyber attack hits a supplier, Collins Aerospace, responsible for the check-in and boarding systems. Heathrow, Brussels and Berlin are among those impacted.

Plus the bit about being in touching distance of the hub when the whole purpose of a data centre means no one needs to be near it to access the workloads as it’s already available in the ‘cloud’

Spaghetti with Chard, Chilli and Anchovies is #RecipeOfTheDay!

And then you have to work out which part of the bus you want to be on. Like near the door for quick exit or more to the end squashed with other passengers

broken etc without affecting prod. Basically a mini backup site and resources for ad hoc testing without worrying about any impact on prod. Plus we now have another copy of backups 😃 Can’t have too many copies

Came across a spare 100TB in shelf space for a Synology so decided to setup an isolated testing environment completely separate from Prod apart from connectivity to be able to take backups. Backups are taken separately from the regular ones but these can then be spinned up for use, tested
