I think I'll compose this thread into a blog post because I'm still pissed off about it and I need to write more to process it.

GUIs are very nice yes, but nothing makes you feel quite as powerful as a successfully chained command line pipeline.
For example, taking a massive log file and filtering it through cat | grep | awk | sort | uniq -c to find the exact problem in seconds is a form of wizardry that modern UI simply cannot replicate.
Sometimes I believe the pipe | might be the single greatest invention in computing history lol 😋

Is anyone in the #Canadian #sysadmin or #accounting communities having discussions about how QuickBooks Online is compromised by the CLOUD Act, and identifying real alternatives?
Even alt providers in #Canada are still mostly using AWS, Google, Azure to host their cloud stack, which doesn't really solve the problem.
I'm genuinely curious if anyone else has come to any conclusions here. I'm happy to discuss in private convo, feel free to hit me up on Signal (contact info attached).

I am writing a post on rise of software that help bring back sanity to the web. Please help me expand the list 😎✨

It appears Linux root-on-ZFS is a mess. No standard way to do it. Kernel updates require recompiling ZFS. Boot environments are a cornucopia of constantly evolving hacks.
If you're actually using #ZFS on root, on #Debian, what's your preferred hack to make that happen? #sysadmin
I suspect #openzfsmastery might need to assume root on extFS and data on ZFS, leaving root-on-ZFS for the advanced user or a terminal chapter. 
Not only are workloads increasing, by hollowing out their junior ranks, businesses are putting themselves squarely in the path of a slow-burning demographic time bomb as seniors begin to retire in record numbers.
"There won’t be an endless supply of experienced hires to fall back on, so everyone will be fighting for the limited, increasingly expensive talent with domain expertise"
What exactly is the tech-industry's endgame here?

起因是看本站的联合实例，发现3个实例不可用，其中两个实例已经死了，另一个是网络安全大站 #infosec.exchange ，我曾经申请过并且有账户。
查看了了infosec.exchange的status https://status.infosec.exchange ，非常良好，前往https://infosec.exchange/about 找了找线索，发现infosec隐藏/封禁了上百个实例，几个大的实例也被隐藏了，比如：misskey.io mstdn.jp mastodon.cloud lemmy.ml……
大部分是不给出原因，偶尔也会给出隐藏原因，比如：
Unmoderated racism
appears to be dead. will remove block after database is purged
Racism promoted by admin
Appears to be unmaintained
iftas:tvec;disinformation;hate-speech
iftas:troll;online-harassment
Highly offensive content
哭了，管理员真的在为他们的用户筛选信息来源（可能是用户善用举报？）管理很勤劳
几个小细节：
相当一部分是NSFW/日语/ #Misskey 实例（防治二次元转发机器人？）
没有中文大实例被隐藏/封禁（可能是中文区和英文安全区不太沟通）
也没有找到我自己的实例，尝试恢复连接，然后执行了尝试连接：admin 恢复了向域名 infosec.exchange 的投递 2026年2月4日 03:24，然后本来是在请求中的账户，取消请求再关注无需同意了，而且可以正常访问infosec站用户&内容
可能是我的实例，时间不对/证书配置有问题而 #infosec 开启了#签名验证（不太可能，肯定不止infosec开启了，但是只有infosec和我的实例联合失败，排除死掉的）
或者#Sidekiq 积压（发现sidekiq失败率为5%）
或者由于连续多次遇到 5xx错误超时，进入退避协议（想起前几天我迁移实例宕机了两小时，而且#hostdzire 网络不太稳定，大概是失败太多，进入退避协议了吧）
对了，查看sidekiq的计划和重试列表，发现主要是三个站：dev.bgme.me（bgme试验站，已主动停止）、mstdn-dev.feddit.social（我的实验站，已主动停止）、dica.natsume.nohost.me（是因为#cloudcone 事故而宕机吗），好像因为三个站都有followers，然后在反复推送我的帖子给他们，嗯好像是这样（…）
还有两个是找不到服务器地址和timeout
已停滞里：
https://fedi.cpluspatch.com 这个站好像死了
https://kitsunes.club 死了
https://geeknews.chat 证书过期，是mastohost托管的，可能是取消续费了，死了
https://bodybag.zip 没死，但是图片全坏了，所以拉取不下来图片
https://pont-bl.eu.org 死了
等等等等
