we dont really see him answer the phone much before this - but isn't it canon that Parker has Jewish heritage?

what's your plan on teaching these people to maintain their selfhosted instances? Are you selling support? I mean you could script pulling and recreating containers, but without eyeballs on it, that stuff will die eventually.

a private school needs to give the appearance that they do, or at least have this capability when someone asks. On the ground, its barely used

I work IT in schools. There is limited surveillance tools on college owned devices. Mainly logging of web traffic. Screens can be viewed when on campus network, not reachable off campus.

No one in our department has time to waste looking at web history or screens. Teachers don't bother to use it much either. We only look at it when directed by college executive or when I go in there at the end of term to clear the alerts.

I'd imagine most other schools are similar, no one gives a shit what kids are doing on their devices

I just build what they need, networks, auth, security etc -I'll leave teaching to the teachers

I Sysadmin in education here in Brisbane. Half our server stack is Linux on a Nutanix hypervisor. I do all my work from Linux, my junior admin recently moved his workstation to Fedora KDE, I use Kinoite.

The student and staff devices are 95% Windows, manager doesn't care what we use to administer. Officially we're a "Microsoft School"

I log into EGS via heroic a few times a year to claim a free game. Yet to ever play any said free games 🤷

On an atomic distro your build environment should be in a container, where it doesn't matter what ships with the base image

It also taints the kernel with a useless module and doesn't really offer much in the way of features over plain old qemu
