MODERATORS
 
  • Garnet: Running Debian Sid, so affected by vulnerability; hastily downgraded to 5.4.5
  • Amethyst: FreeBSD still ships 5.4.x
  • Pearl: Obsolete and currently unused hardware, so Linux hasn't been updated since October and OSX hasn't been updated since 2009.
  • Pearl-II: Void Linux still ships with 5.4.x, and the malware requires glibc anyway (I'm running musl); macOS partition still has 5.4.x (which is strange, given that I use pkgsrc, which shipped 5.6.x)
  • LapisLazuli: According to Mageia, everything's fine
  • Spinel: Running Raspbian Stable, which still ships 5.4.x

All my devices, Linux or otherwise, have a host name after fictional a vessel be it water, air, or space. Weatherlight, Swordfish_II, Hammerhead, Pequod, Flying_Dutchman, Serenity, Arwing, Cloudbase, Prydwen, Nebuchadnezzar... I'm sure there are more I'm not thinking of. Nebuchadnezzar is my LTO machine that I can never spell correctly... but that's fine, I only log in to do an annual backup to cold and fresh install of any workstation or laptop or cellphone to tape and store in my safe. Have been doing that for 3 years now. I have to look up how to spell it literally every time.

Cool! I name my storage drives after weather (e.g. STORM19, LIGHTNING12, REDSPRITE24).
