Jack-of-all-trades edu sysadmin, husband to an amazing wife, father, simple lifer, smallweb/indieweb fan with a lot to say about everything and nothing. Slinger of network packets you probably shouldn't trust.
How do you even find a new job these days without snorting the linkedin bile and bullshitting your way in front of people's eyeballs. I mean I know I suck at this anyway, but the moral approach is a hindrance.

I saw it on mastodon a while back, iirc there was even a website (or well trafficked blog post) about it but haven't been able to dig it out of the depths of the internet as yet!
It's Friday so as told by the prophecy I return with Scraps, my little human-curated #roundup of links to some great #blog posts and other interesting content. The #indieweb, the #humanweb and the #infosec & #sysadmin worlds collide in this week's Scraps: https://fyr.io/scrap/2025-07-25
We're six (6) editions deep with no signs of slowing down. Take a look if you wish. You might find something you like!
Is this thing on? Ahem.
Hi!
After a long wait, I finally posted edition 8 of my link rollup "scraps" on Friday. Much rejoicing was had by I, for I haven't posted one since August! Refunds are in the mail.
We kept it short as I (hopefully) wind back up into some kind of regular posting schedule. We learn that I'm insignificant, what discord alternatives are worth a look in, and keeping it simple. And, of course, more. Huzzah!
Will you attempt to save everyone at the risk of yourself, or yourself at the risk of up to half of the rest?
