Guitar amp is repaired! Turns out it had some wires that got hot and partially disconnected (easy fix) and it needed 1 preamp tube. Excited to get her back for $154.

It's the best. We have it automated along with our standard builds now. Tools like Salt, Zabbix, Chocolatey, Graylog (winlogbeat), and others go out in a single command at build time. So nice.

Setting up a few new users, two new hires yesterday.
Lots of onboarding going on here. One new hire is in his notice period with previous employer and got his desk phone delivered yesterday. And we hired two more yesterday, so gotta get phones moving for them now!

The various NTG ventures have staff in many countries that I am aware of.
In some of those, an extremely low rate when listed in USD is likely their pay. But in their country, they are likely paid better than average.
That is at least what @scottalanmiller has insinuated multiple times without ever giving specifics.

Like most "simple" tools, you can do a lot of managing who is allowed to run what with it.

True. During my practice session I had to reference man pages a couple of times for syntax, but I'm ok with that for the exam, since they're available.
