My little nuc server. Had to change some bios configs today so I busted out the old LCD and since it was there already, did a package update for the hell of it.
Please for the love of mike, update your servers frequently!!
I login to all my servers weekly for updates, both OS and software
I generally do this over ssh every week, today was special. Indeed, update always!
Unattended updates are pretty easy to setup in ubuntu, even without configuration management.
I just have automatic updates turned on.
Yeah, there’s always the risk of a bad update wrecking everything, but I figure that it’s going to happen when I apply the update manually anyway.
I did a routine upgrade on my mbin server, where I had an old version with changes I made myself.
Well turns out I upgraded something (probably redis) that broke symfony that broke everything.
So I had a fun afternoon upgrading to the latest mbin version. I mean I needed to anyway but my hand was forced.
Yep sometimes an innocent looking update will change your weekend plans.
Anyways, any reason not to use ssh?
Intel NUC Servers FTW! 🤘
Mine sits on top of my desktop PC so I can jump into it directly if I ever need to. This reminds me I should go update stuff on there today. (Thanks!)
Please don’t jump into your server. It will be crushed. Just use SSH.
This guy’s never seen Tron.
Hey just passing to say I saw your post and decided to update my Debian server …took me an hour to find that the rtl driver just stopped working and I had to revert to older kernel…never done it before haha…
Unattended-upgrades ftw
