I have a girlfriend who does tech stuff and is very cool and clever, but maintains a much higher level of opsec than I do (which is a looooow bar tbf but still), and it is so hard not to brag about her at every possible opportunity
Nov 1, 2026, 9:23 AMTo be absolutely clear I also have two other girlfriends who are not in tech that are also very cool and clever and I’m very proud of as well, but the stuff they do has less overlap with the stuff y’all talk about On Here

(I am the sysadmin.)
Nov 1, 2026, 9:22 AM@futzle literally the girlfriend I was talking about is a SRE lmao
Nov 1, 2026, 9:27 AM@LapTop006 @futzle She and I live separately so we are both our own sysadmins, if we were to live together she would be the home sysadmin though because I feel quite certain my setup would not even be close to meeting her standards
Nov 1, 2026, 9:32 AM@LapTop006 @futzle I am advised that my feeling was correct, and have been appropriately chastised for not using VLANs on my home network
@daisy @LapTop006 @futzle You dont use VLANS?! Daisy. I expected better from you. Come to my house at once for dinner and networking lessons.
