I don't know if this is necessarily a huge deal to me but but it would probably be enough to make me choose ASUS if there was no other huge difference between similar boards from multiple companies.

I got a bunch of system firmware upgrades for a Lenovo X1 through LVFS. Also an over-the-air enablement of the fingerprint scanner which didn't previously work under Linux.

LVFS is good

LVFS whips, yeah. I'm glad its being further adapted.

in my last position at one of our customers i built a small static infra portal website for peeps to access tools and hid an ASCII art wu-tang clan logo at the end of the CSS file. people really liked the portal so it got copied around to a few of our other customers so wu-tang is now truly forever

edit: vvv my SSID at home is named "Wu-Tang LAN" which i'm pretty sure i stole from someone here vvv

cowsay is a separate package these days. also it's enabled in ansible by default, a truly bizarre decision and a point of contention since forever: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/reference_appendices/faq.html#how-do-i-disable-cowsay

this is my experience so far too but i haven’t tried terraform, so i guess maybe that?

they’re all bad in different ways, but ansible is a yaml based dsl with a template syntax that is a particularly poor fit for yaml syntax so it’s automatically the worst

terraform does something a bit different and hcl is only better than yaml because it has more entertainment value ...

yaml is real bad, and that makes ansible bad

it's a shame, because ansible would be good otherwise

it's not 2012 anymore so ignore the ansible and chef likers. the world has moved on and those tools are a dead end. build images with packer and deploy them with terraform or cloudformation
