@NetworkManager whenever I've tried this it hasn't been free, is this a bug or a documentation issue?

@NetworkManager During the summer months in the North hemisphere (or winter heat in the South) this is a handy way to create an excuse to visit an air-conditioned space for a while!

@NetworkManager Why would one run Network Manager in a DC environment?

@NetworkManager Free? That cost me 2’750 tickets and three bushels of petrol-like fluids!

I have one of those fancy remote terminal power strips, so I can blink the server in the datacenter from the comfort of my couch


(but maybe getting it to boot up again after making it blink like a disco, now that could require a long drive in)

I don't know what nmcli is, but ifconfig eth0 down does the same. Except in all data centers where I rented servers there was some kind of IP-KVM for just this kind of situation. Or for when you somehow broke your server so much it doesn't boot any more.

@grishka nmcli is the cli for NetworkManager, mainly used – on servers – by enterprise linux (rhel/rocky/alma). most linux distributions have deprecated ifconfig for ip, I pretty much only see it on BSD these days

@NetworkManager sorry for asking, but why is your logo jerking itself off?
