iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Oh, nu ineens is de hardware niet meer beschikbaar en willen ze me geld geven ipv garantie verlenen. Die optimizers werken alleen met hun rommel dus ik hoop dat ze die ook allemaal kosteloos vervangen dan of geld terug. 🤔

You sometimes just end up with some construction like this and just zero-trust the hell out of it. 🤫 Don't use an LLM unless you know what you are doing, also never ever give it access to the machine and type the commands yourself!

000

Yeah, works for you at home don't do this on a production server without first checking if stuff would still work. If you are running something that doesn't exist anymore in packages or ports and you didn't jail it and include all the libraries you are screwed. It just removes the package. 🤣

100

Most stuff seem to be working again, when I'm done I'll upload this modified 15.1 abomination to github. #FreeBSD #CUDA

000

Now back to the more important stuff.. What else did I break on my personal machine and needs fixing. 🤣

100

Since day one when you deleted a host from IPAM you couldn't add one with the same name and had to call me to 'fix the database'. Added 1 line of code to fix the issue, only took me ~13 years to bother. 😉

100

Finally fixed a 13 year old bug on our Intranet. 🤣

100

Added the option to hide the HV bit per VM again, didn't have to patch anything for the Radeon but it didn't overwrite all the files during the update so some patches were still there and it just needed a recompile. 👍

000

Only 1 panic because I patched and compiled linuxulator, pseudofs and linprocs for I forgot that pseudofs is in the kernel. 🤣

100

Fixed CUDA again so it works without any shims. Now I should probably get my bhyve patches working again. 👍

100

Still have a bunch of stuff to fix again but at least I'm back in KDE. Plasma complaining that X11 support is going to be dropped in the next version is not funny since Wayland doesn't work for me. (I prefer X11 because it gives me more then just a mouse pointer)

100

Next time I want to install something that even looks at Qt, please stop me. 🤣 It has been 0 days since I had to repair my OS.

100

Was 't zat, voor 't eerst in mijn leven een melding gemaakt bij de consumentenbond. 👍

000

SolarEdge / DakProfijt kan je dus beter geen zaken mee doen. Wacht nu al maanden op de nieuwe omvormer, had ondertussen een nieuwe kunnen kopen die ik nu al weer terug had verdient.

200

I remember now why this jail was still on 13 and figured out quickly it's going to stay there until the end of its days. 🤣

000

It's actually not that bad. Just saying.

020

Damn I forgot another one. 🤬

100

Not the l word! Next thing you'll start throwing out accountability and scary words like that. 🤔

000

Sad but true, I was thinking the same.

000

Busy moving stuff from the Netscalers to HAPROXY. 🎈

000

Just like criminals not liking the police, terrorists (or terrorist wannabe's) don't seem to like anti-terrorist organisations for some reason.

Everything but sustainable energy. Note to self: never vote for a bunch of retards. 👍

000

I would start with the (not linux) 👍

Prostitution is illegal over there unless you film it and release it. Executions uh... I'm not even going to start. What a country, lol.

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

For the last couple of weeks Citrix making sure we all have stuff to do in the weekends. 🤔🤣

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

Sounds like a good time to start experimenting and switching to zfs send. 🤔

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 08/10/2026

What they want isn't even free speech, they just want to be free of consequences / free of accountability and do whatever they can to make more money over the back of everybody else. Also don't Americans hate free stuff? 🤔

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Created a little tool to monitor all processes in jails on the cluster. 👍

000

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Who would have known that people sometimes actually like to mutate records in an IPAM database and not just only look at them? 🤣

000

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

** Fix it Tuesday ** Now they are finally finding some stuff I apparently have broken. 🤣

100

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Didn't have to do anything crazy, they called me back just in time. 👍 Also didn't break anything this weekend so this is a pretty boring Monday.

100

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Not even using my GPU's yet. 🤬

000

Stefan Rink @stefanrink.bsky.social · 05/10/2026

Waiting all morning for another department to call me back, if they don't do that within an hour I'm just going give myself access and do it myself. 🤐

100

Also I gave it about half the resources in Bhyve and it's still at least 3 times faster with about everything you do. (GUI and scanning)

000

If your OpenVAS is slow as shit, try running it on a Bhyve instead of on a Nutanic VM. Same hardware but was like night and day. Guess the storage layer wasn't that happy with the massive amount of database queries on Nutanix.

100

By the way before the weekend the Icinga database was still running on the first MySQL server where they switched from stone tablets to magnets but because it all was in zero-trust and if someone even farted near that jail it would start yelling at me on Telegram, I never bothered to upgrade it. 🤣

000

It's gonna be like some SSL library saying some old protocol is depricated and we should use another and I'd be like: well who is going to dig up the dead programmers and ask them to fix it? ;-) I know some stuff is old but we still need to monitor it. 🤣

000

Only broken the monitoring a little with all my updates/consolidations/changes but I also managed to fix it all so it's fine. Next weekend I can try even harder to break and then fix stuff because I can focus on Icinga and the many many polling scripts in languages like Python that love updates. 🤣

200

He is no longer getting that 'high' from the hyped-up audience so he'll probably just try and find it elsewhere. 🤔

000

I guess I don't qualify as a user. 🤣

000

If you reading this and have a Netscaler running on the internet you may want to upgrade it again today also. Some DDoS issues apparently that need patching.
