I realise this is a "mememe" but to be honest I have had such a bad day I just don't care.
As every IT bod should I keep religious backups. I do, religiously.
My main system has died. An Ubuntu 64 bit server. I have an operating system image of about 6 months ago and regular data backups. Some ubuntu patches proper fooked the machine.
Point 1) Why oh why oh frakin why did I choose Ubuntu
Point 2) Why oh why oh frakin why did I choose to use this machine for my VMs?
Point 3) Why oh why oh frakin why did I not get myself a decent laptop to run the VMs?
Now I have a dead box which means I cannot invoice, code, or do pretty much anything.
All my own fault, but I can't help wondering why Ubuntu is so ******* tulip that you cannot trust the update mechanism.
I have grown as a business, and been accepting more and more work, and neglected my infrastructure. I now have a healthy bank balance and infracstructe in tatters.
Learn from my mistakes, seriously.
