#lopsa — Public Fediverse posts

💥BREAKING NEWS: #LOPSA, the hilariously self-important society of professional button-pushers, is folding like a cheap lawn chair. Apparently, the riveting world of bylaws and board minutes wasn't enough to keep the nerd masses entertained. 🎉✨

Someone who follows my holiday #Halloween antics, who I mostly know from #LOPSA and #LISA conferences, called me "the Santa Claus of Halloween", which... Feels like it fits.

The year is almost out, but there is still some time left to make a donation to LOPSA! Because we are a non-profit, you can write off the donation on your taxes in the US. Don’t let the opportunity pass! Click the Donate button on LOPSA.org and make it happen before the year-end. Thanks to everyone who has ever donated, and a super big thanks to those who have donated in 2018. I hope everyone had a great holiday season and has a great New Year.

Taking a stroll down Memory Lane today, I was telling a coworker about all the people I'd met and became friends with through conferences like #LISA and organizations like #LOPSA

There are a *lot* of really cool people I met over the years from just those interactions. Y'all know who you are!

I'm looking for someone to give at the LOPSA LA Meetup we're planning for May 10th in Downtown Long Beach? If you're interested, hit me up and lets talk!

So, a question was raised at a work meeting today. I don't seem to know of awards or acknowledgements for sysadmins, linux admins, networking folks, HPC. Maybe someone from #usenix or #LOPSA might know of some?

Speaking of presenting at #LCA2021 the Sysadmin Miniconf accepted my "MySQL for System Administrators" talk, schedule forthcoming

Glad your new account came up in #LOPSA

This video about SUSE OpenStack Cloud is really fun! I was surprised at how fun it was. Generally these kinds of marketing videos are super stale and boring. But then I remember that at SUSE our motto is, "have a lot of fun!"
