Man, every since my visit to Pittsburgh I've been low key into funiculars, these twin cable cars on hill sides where one is the counterweight for the other.

I never thought of myself as a "guy on the spectrum who is into trains" but I guess I never found the right kind of train.

@leahawasser top three things:

  • I met 4 people in-person who I'd known online, some for years - all of these were randomly bumping into them, not wither of us looking for each other
  • Liz Acosta's testing alignment chart (https://hachyderm.io/@bengerman/112457054242964145)
  • Al Sweigart's musical lightning talk

Upgrading my TrueNAS Mini X+ from TrueNAS Scale 23.10.2 to 24.04.0 was smooth.

I had to change the location of the node_exporter program from /usr/bin to a new location, which is under a separate dataset I created for local apps (not to be confused with the TrueNAS Scale Applications dataset).

The /usr directory, which is mounted from boot-pool/ROOT/24.04.0/usr, is now mounted as read-only.
