see the depenguinator script

de-penguinator - a fishy hack https://git.io/JeQDW to de-linux your systems

packet's big aarch64 servers don't have a FreeBSD ZFS image available, but we can fix that. We have the EFI partition, a 4GiB swap partition, and with Ubuntu 18.04, comes zfs. Anything is possible.

  • use packet.net to create an Ubuntu 18.04 install of either Ampere hr330a or cavium thunderX2
  • adapt depenguinator.sh as needed, it duplicates the current host's network settings
  • enjoy FreeBSD zfs sweetness after a short reboot

I got some "fancy" 00 pizza flour, and some std semolina pasta flour too. Let's do some experiments on getting the crusty feeling.

  • 4c flour (600g)
  • 375mL warm water
  • 1 cube live yeast
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 2 slops olive oil
