I met him waiting in line for a concert. He was so incredibly nice. Answered all the geeky questions I had took pics with anyone who wanted. Was super super friendly/nice. I’ve met a ton of celebrities gotta say he was probably the nicest one.
I use Ubuntu server 22.04 LTS headless on bare metal on my Nuc 11 essential I got for 140 bucks. Use it for php/python scripts/cron jobs, puppeteer scripts, MySQL server, exim4 setup as a mail relay so my box can send me email notifications from my scripts and apache as a www server only used by me. I use it cuz Debian the packages are usually older and Ubuntu is the most popular so super easy to google shit I don’t know plus from what I understand Ubuntu server is more user friendly than Debian and easier to install.
I’m sure I could set up proxmox or use Ubuntu in a VM, etc but this works for me and does all the stuff I need and is stable as hell. I have it running 24/7 and never had a single crash or anything. Also I’m not the most advanced Linux user and I know how to do it all easily this way so dunno why I need to complicate it.
Not occupational. A family member is famous so I’ve met people through him. Plus I used to be really into a band I’d go see and sneak backstage and meet lots of celebrities at their la shows. Plus lots of other random encounters.
