I am a ball of anime and game references, Simpsons quotes, and stuff masquerading as a grownup who builds networking things for Cloud Native software, like Gateway API and Cilium. Black lives matter. Trans lives matter. He/Him

If you see this, quote this post with an anime you'd give a perfect 10/10

Well, I've got the TuringPi mounted into its case and racked, next up will be installing Talos Linux on them, although I think I will wait for the v1.9.0 release, because support for the RK1 boards has been merged!

Once the big week of Kubecon is over next week, looking forward to getting this baby installed and up and running - it's a Turing Pi board with 2 RK1 and 2 Raspberry Pi CM4 modules. It's going to be the Kube home lab.

Who doesn't love an "I was there early" commemoration post?

I actually don't remember the exact words of ours (it was 14 years ago), but I know that I pinched some from when Scott and Jean from the X-Men got married:

Scott: “There were times I was lost, and you found me.”
Jean: “There were days which were heavy, and you lightened my heart.”
Scott: “Though it all, since the day when we met, there was you for me, and me for you. That hasn’t changed. That will never change.”
Jean: “Times have been good, and times have been good, and times have been bad, and still, our love has endured and triumphed -- I take Scott Summers to be my lawfully wedded husband.”
Scott: “I take Jean Grey to be my lawfully wedded wife.”
Both: “Through pain and passion, through sorrow and hope, though death and through life. No matter what tomorrow may bring, we will face it together.”

It's an overcast day in Positano, but Mr 7 and I are on our way to Pompeii and Vesuvius!
