Yesterday I was bothered by VMWare that the typing is too slow so I switched back to Virtualbox. I loaded the traditional Linux, the Peppermint OS Devuan ISO into the picture of utility guest workstation console. I had disappointment with Broadcom's new software, since acquisition product, the VMWare Workstation Pro. In result I put a message on Facebook about this, and Jordan (a friend from beginnings of my computer experiences) set it straight by expressing that VMWare Software is not without its advantages. I give thanks for the wise advice, sure -- not every studio fits the tennant, so to speak. I managed to clean my ASUS laptop's screen using two soft tissues with some water and it still looks good. I was freaking out a little about it.
Just now as I type in this window the OLED screen does dimming to the dance of my characters on the screen. I freaked out at first, thinking it was water in the circuits, but no I'm still here. I am getting a killer 1 TB Sandisk Extreme disk (with a carry case) that alleges 1050 MB/sec data delivery by a USB 3.2 C/Gen 2 cable plug in to the computer. My goal is to probably involve a "LiveUSB" for BSD and Linux multiboot or a place to lock up critical files. Good for when I tighten up on my priorities. Today was a drive through Redwood City and I managed to photograph the Airfield Cannabis Supply store. Its so close, and I'm so close as well. I can't go wrong, and I have also collected a portfolio of domain names (incl. "dankweed.com"). I'm ready to take on the next steps of my life-- a career involving DevOps and Linux. What would I say if people were in my shoes today? Travel and build it. Now in review of this, I think my LiveUSB environment will be Gentoo Linux, all compiled and optimized for the system.
I'm currently using Peppermint OS Linux which was mentioned to me by a former friend, it is involved with DevOps efforts which you can learn about on their website. I love the HDR on this old Pixel phone, and still need to repair my Pixel 7 Pro (which got moisture damage).

I got Linux Peppermint OS running in a VMWare Workstation Pro instance. I'm going to be combining use materials with a flexible adaptation I have about my research. I want to do a variety of resourceful things with this software so I can pass interviews easier. So since I hacked the planet like that movie Hackers I wanted some respect for being a millennial of historic value. Contributing my ways to a better technology effect, is about whatever the employer is doing as a business making the share holders justified in their wants/desires. I have been playing Final Fantasy XIV, and it was good. The graphics in that game don't eat more than 1.2GB of 8 GB NVIDIA memory. It would be nice to be a coder, connect with people, and finish my GED.
Many thanks to Dan for fronting me on this machine 🏧🏧💰. I could not have gotten it during my circumstance scenario involving government and 🧑🏻⚖️ adult health officials. I've been at the Cordilleras building's newly constructed Acacia House, here at Redwood City. Redwood City is home to ISC.org, the makers of the BIND software that I had control over on many different systems while growing up in the Y2K era. The broadband data is okay, I just wish it would turn on every day. Since this is a new building development their IT services management has to work on the network connectivity supposedly going off every few days. In the event the internet is out I ask to use a computer's WiFi, attached to a computer they use for 15 minute sessions of those who don't own a computer (or tablet).
Today I got to play with DeepSeek AI. It made me a blueprint to celestial beings 🗺️🪐 ~

In DevOps
What artifacts are: These are files and components created during the software development process.
They are used to build software applications and ensure a smooth transition from development to deployment.
What are artifacts used for?
Software package versions: Artifacts are used to specify the versions of software packages that will be deployed.
Rollbacks: Artifacts are used to revert an application to an earlier version if there is a problem.
Efficient software delivery: Artifacts are essential for efficient software delivery and management.
What types of artifacts are there?
Compiled code: The compiled version of an application, such as a .jar or .exe file
Binary files: Libraries or other dependencies that an application needs to run
Packages: Deployable units such as NuGet packages, WAR files, or Docker images
Database scripts: Scripts for setting up, modifying, or tearing down databases
Configuration files: Files for configuring the application or environment
How are artifacts managed?
1.) Artifacts are stored in an artifact repository for easy access by team members.
2.) Artifact repository managers can move, copy, and delete artifacts to keep repositories consistent.

"Infrastructure as a Service" (IaaS) refers to a cloud computing model where a provider delivers essential IT infrastructure like servers, storage, and networking resources on demand, allowing users to access and utilize these resources over the internet on a pay-as-you-go basis, without having to manage the underlying physical hardware; essentially, "renting" computing power instead of buying and maintaining your own hardware.
Key points about IaaS:
- Flexibility:
Users can scale up or down their resource usage based on their needs, paying only for what they use. - Control:
While the provider manages the physical infrastructure, users still have control over their operating systems, applications, and data. - Cost-effective:
Eliminates the need for large upfront investments in hardware and reduces maintenance costs.
Examples of IaaS providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform.

A good .NET 🌐 is hard to find
I keep digging through .net since I want a better one than the one I have expiring. Thusly I found something of a candidate worth selling, but I want to keep digging. Use of tools on the internet, are varying such as reversedictionary.org and other. Numerical names of representation were surprisingly taken (for example, 8231.net) as I looked through the queries. My ideal expired/expiring .net is a 3 character one. I almost got to register a 2 character .net that expired in 2015, but IANA said you can't buy them (2 letter .net) directly through a registrar any longer. It is still expired to this day so; nobody is being a jerk like Twitter was when I needed the username @kinesis. That was so wrong I had to give up my username ID for the millennium. I picked it out of the dictionary, and everyone takes it before I find and register it as service user. I wish I had root on the .net registrar, so I could just apply my desire(d) names to named.conf and /var/named.
Come with me to the .net store, let's find something valuable 👟. Show me your most recent .net domains!
