    056 - How People Actually Get Into SysAdmin Work

    Two careers, two completely different entry points, and the exact same first catastrophe: data gone, no idea if it was coming back. Andy Syrewicze and Eric Siron trade full origin stories, from the 486 and the VIC-20 through the first paid tech jobs neither of them was qualified for. They get specific about the failures that rewired how they work, the mentor advice that still holds up decades later, the advice that aged badly, and the question underneath all of it: the on-ramp that produced both of them was cheap hardware, full access, and time to break things, and most of that is gone. Whether that actually matters for anyone starting in 2026 is the argument they finish on.

    055 - How Do You Run IT With No Budget?

    "No budget" is almost never no budget. It is no budget yet, and the thing that closes the gap is your ability to put a real dollar figure on the risk you are carrying. Andy Syrewicze and Eric Siron have both run IT for organizations where getting the credit card out meant you had done something wrong. They walk through what that actually looks like: a PC DOS 4 machine still passing parts in a quality lab, an end of life Cisco ASA swapped for an open source firewall on scavenged workstations, NetGear ReadyNAS units kept on a shelf for SAN emergencies, and the iSCSI arguments that never die. Then the harder part: where the first dollar goes when budget finally shows up, and how to translate aging gear into risk language that a business owner will actually fund.

Anthropic has not signed. - Eric flagged the Sam Altman "no path to profitability" clip as possibly a deep fake, and we could not verify that specific video. The underlying reporting on OpenAI's CFO and spending tension is real; see the Fortune link above.

    054 - Windows Admin Center in 2026: Good Tool, Broken On-Ramp?

    Windows Admin Center is a genuinely useful tool wrapped in an on-ramp so rough it took Andy four hours, a from-scratch certificate authority, and a pile of misleading error messages just to reach the login screen. Andy rebuilt his lab on an all-Core Windows Server 2025 fleet, set out to manage it from a browser the way Microsoft keeps telling us to, and hit a certificate wall that most SysAdmins would never fight through. He and Eric Siron walk the full gauntlet: the 60-day self-signed cert trap, an ERROR_DS_RANGE_CONSTRAINT that pointed the wrong way, a web server template that blocks computer requests, a silent blank SAN that kills the HTTPS binding, and the bigger question of whether a web tool is even the right way to manage Windows. Along the way: a News React on open-source AI, China, and a possible federal clampdown, plus the domain-join debate that never dies. Chapters: 00:00:00 - Cold Open: Four Hours to Install a Free Tool 00:01:15 - Welcome and Show Plugs 00:03:52 - News React: Apple, the EU, and the Walled Garden 00:08:55 - News React: Open-Source AI, China, and a Possible Federal Clampdown 00:16:00 - Nerd Hour: Ripping Out KVM, Putting Hyper-V Back 00:18:55 - Setting the Scene: An All-Core Lab and the Certificate Wall 00:30:08 - The Four-Hour Gauntlet: A Sequence of Failures 00:44:00 - What WAC Gets Right, and Where It Falls Down 00:59:24 - Azure Arc and the Real Agenda 01:07:45 - Does WAC Move the Needle?

The claims hold up, but a few were under-attributed on air, so here is the precise record. - Moonshot AI - Kimi K3, the open-weight model released the week before we recorded that benchmarks near frontier US models. The whole news cycle is downstream of it: https://venturebeat.com/technology/chinas-moonshot-ai-releases-kimi-k3-the-largest-open-source-model-ever-rivaling-top-u-s-systems - Dean Ball, OpenAI's Head of Strategic Futures and a former senior AI adviser in the Trump administration, is the source of the "AI communism" line, in a post on X. On air Andy first said "CEO of Claude" and "CEO of Anthropic," then corrected to "someone from OpenAI." The correct attribution is Ball at OpenAI, NOT Anthropic. Naming note: Claude is the model, Anthropic is the company: https://x.com/deanwball/status/2078133895766114412 - Dean Ball - follow-up clarifying he was predicting that outcome, not advocating for it: https://x.com/deanwball/status/2078619513575137330 - Axios (July 20, 2026) - the federal-action angle. Frame it as reportedly under consideration; no formal policy has been proposed. Mechanisms discussed include Commerce Entity List additions, security advisories, and federal procurement rules: https://www.axios.com/2026/07/20/ai-us-china-open-source-kimi - David Sacks, former White House AI adviser, publicly argued that closed labs want the government to eliminate their open-source competition, in a post on X: https://x.com/DavidSacks/status/2078826291638522127 - Dario Amodei has called open-source AI a dangerous path; the source quotes are collected in this r/Anthropic thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/Anthropic/comments/1ui759l/amodei_says_open_source_is_dangerous/

    053 - How to Survive as a Solo SysAdmin: Where to Start When You're the Only One

    When you are the only person standing between a working business and total collapse, the job stops being about doing everything and starts being about deciding what not to do this week. Andy and Eric Siron tackle a listener-requested topic: you just became the solo SysAdmin, whether by hire, downsizing, or promotion, and now you own the firewall, the servers, the backups, and the printer nobody wants to replace. This one is heavy on the career and survival skills that keep a team of one sane: triage before projects, documentation as an insurance policy, buying time back through automation and managed services, and speaking business value instead of acronyms to leadership. Plus a News React on Windows Server hot patching and 1Password for Claude, and a Nerd Hour on Debian 13.6 Secure Boot certs and SAML auth for Nagios. Chapters: 00:00:00 - You're the Only SysAdmin.

    052 - Why is Homelab Hardware So Expensive in 2026 (and When Will It Get Cheaper)?

    Somewhere between a $305 Raspberry Pi board and a used NVMe listing on eBay, the homelab hobby quietly stopped making financial sense. Andy and co-host Eric Siron dig into why memory, NAND, and storage prices went vertical in 2026, who is actually eating the supply, and what practitioners should do about it. They cover the AI buildout swallowing the manufacturing capacity, why prices probably never return to pre-shortage levels, and the return of a skill the industry let atrophy: right-sizing hardware to the workload instead of throwing spec at it. ## Chapters: 00:00:00 - The Hardware Market Is Fire and Brimstone 00:01:18 - Welcome and Intros 00:04:33 - News React: The First Fully AI-Run Ransomware (JadePuffer) 00:08:16 - News React: AI Job-Blame and the Unix Lawsuit That Won't Die 00:13:32 - Nerd Hour: Thunderbird Finally Speaks Exchange Online 00:18:47 - Nerd Hour: Hugo, AI, and the 80% Problem 00:23:13 - Show Plugs 00:24:09 - Why Homelab Hardware Broke Me: The eBay Moment 00:41:44 - Why This Is Happening: AI Is Eating the Supply Chain 00:46:43 - Local Models and the Willingness-to-Pay Problem 00:52:41 - The New Normal: Prices Aren't Coming Back 00:59:05 - Right-Size the Hardware to the Problem 01:06:02 - Could China Break the Bottleneck? 01:09:29 - One More Casualty, and Wrap-Up ## Resources / Show Notes - BleepingComputer, JadePuffer AI-run ransomware: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/jadepuffer-ransomware-used-ai-agent-to-automate-entire-attack/ - Thunderbird Blog, native Microsoft Exchange (EWS) support in 145: https://blog.thunderbird.net/2025/11/thunderbird-adds-native-microsoft-exchange-email-support/ - Raspberry Pi Foundation, memory-driven price rises: https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/more-memory-driven-price-rises/ - GamersNexus, SSDs WTF (NAND makers sold out for 2026): https://gamersnexus.net/features/ssds-wtf - Gartner, surging memory costs (125% DRAM / 234% NAND surge): https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2026-02-26-gartner-says-surging-memory-costs-will-reduce-global-pc-and-smartphone-shipments-in-2026 - TechPowerUp, Samsung and SK Hynix $870B capacity plan and fab timelines: https://www.techpowerup.com/350478/samsung-and-sk-hynix-to-expand-semiconductor-capacity-with-usd-870-billion-plan - BBC, Samsung's memory-driven profit surge: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c1kyy8yrpxdo - IDC, why the memory market stays tight and makers aren't rushing capacity: https://www.idc.com/resource-center/blog/why-the-memory-market-is-still-tight-what-comes-next/ - Tom's Hardware, SK Group chairman says the shortage runs until 2030: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/dram/sk-group-chairman-says-memory-chip-shortage-will-last-until-2030 - SemiAnalysis, China's CXMT challenging DRAM incumbents: https://newsletter.semianalysis.com/p/chinas-cxmt-is-set-to-challenge-dram - Tom's Hardware, China's YMTC and homegrown NAND tooling: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-components/ssds/chinas-ymtc-moves-to-break-free-of-u-s-sanctions-by-building-production-line-with-homegrown-tools-aims-to-capture-15-percent-of-nand-market-by-late-2026 - TrendForce, China's GPU makers scaling as enterprise accelerators: https://www.trendforce.com/news/2025/10/07/news-chinas-gpu-trio-rise-as-nvidia-retreats-decoding-moore-threads-metax-and-cambricon/ - CSIS, China and global cyber supply chain risk: https://www.csis.org/blogs/strategic-technologies-blog/chinas-weaponization-global-cyber-supply-chains - AndyOnTech, Andy's hub for all his output: https://www.andyontech.com - Project Runspace, the organization behind the show: https://www.projectrunspace.org - SysAdmin Weekly GitHub Discussions, share your hardware battle stories: https://github.com/ProjectRunspace/sysadmin-weekly/discussions

    051 - What's Actually in Our Homelabs (and Why)

    The hardest part of running a home lab in 2026 is not building it up; it is being honest about what earns its place. Andy is joined by returning guest and member of the SysAdmin Weekly community, Clay Tamam, a working SysAdmin over in the Netherlands, for a real tour of what is actually sitting in their labs: the hardware, the hypervisors, the services they use every day, and the reasoning behind each choice. Andy explains why he tore a four-node Kubernetes cluster down to five VMs on a single Debian box, Clay walks through building a rack from scratch on a practical budget, and both of them dig into what current memory and hardware prices are doing to the hobby. It closes with the Graveyard: the gear and services that got powered off, and why pruning is an important part of the discipline. ## Chapters 00:00:00 - Welcome and a Returning Guest: Clay from the Netherlands 00:07:20 - News React: A US Firm's Bid for the Dutch DigiD Infrastructure 00:15:21 - News React: An AI-Assisted Hack Hits US Festival Ticketing 00:18:11 - Nerd Hour: Scoping AI Agents and Building a Lab From Scratch 00:24:29 - Main Topic: What Is Actually in Our Home Labs 00:25:15 - The Hardware: Andy's Pared-Down Single-Box Lab 00:31:25 - The Hardware: Clay's From-Scratch Rack Build 00:45:52 - The Foundation: KVM vs. Proxmox 00:56:33 - The Services That Earn Their Keep 01:02:37 - Self-Hosting, the Plex Price Hike, and Leaving Discord 01:13:57 - Learning Goals and the Graveyard 01:24:19 - Local Inference and the Urge to Panic-Buy 01:25:49 - Wrap-Up ## Resources / Show Notes - Wired - Researcher used Claude to break Front Gate Tickets: https://www.wired.com/story/claude-helped-a-hacker-find-a-way-to-issue-tickets-to-almost-every-us-music-festival/ - NL Times - Netherlands blocks the US takeover of DigiD operator Solvinity: https://nltimes.nl/2026/05/26/netherlands-blocks-us-takeover-digid-operator-solvinity-security-concerns - Security Now with Steve Gibson: https://www.grc.com/securitynow.htm - Proxmox Virtual Environment and Backup Server: https://www.proxmox.com - Forgejo, the self-hosted Git forge (Gitea fork): https://forgejo.org - Tailscale, the overlay mesh VPN: https://tailscale.com - Foundry Virtual Tabletop: https://foundryvtt.com - Plex - New Lifetime Plex Pass pricing: https://www.plex.tv/blog/new-lifetime-plex-pass-pricing/ - Jellyfin, the free software media system: https://jellyfin.org - Vaultwarden, a self-hosted Bitwarden-compatible server: https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden - Framework Desktop: https://frame.work/desktop - Connect with Clay on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/clay-tamam-00b6441b3/ - AndyOnTech: https://www.andyontech.com

    050 - How Do You Run a Blameless Incident Postmortem?

    A postmortem that ends with a name instead of a root cause wasted everyone's time in the room. Andy and Eric Siron pull from a combined several-decades of incident reviews to break down what a postmortem actually is, what kind of outage earns one, and who really needs to be at the table. The throughline: keep it blameless without making it unaccountable, separate root cause from contributing factors, and remember that the follow-through is the entire point. Whether your postmortem is sixty people in a war room or just you writing a summary for one nervous boss, the discipline scales. ## CHAPTERS 00:00:00 - Why Postmortems Matter 00:01:31 - Welcome and Show Plugs 00:04:29 - News React: AI Job Hype Walkbacks, Teams Pain, Oracle Layoffs, AMD Trust 00:17:42 - News React: Ubiquiti UniFi OS Max-Severity RCE CVEs 00:19:41 - Nerd Hour: Claude Code, Hugo, and Pandoc 00:23:36 - The Incident Postmortem Process 00:26:40 - What Actually Earns a Postmortem 00:29:22 - Who Needs To Be In the Room 00:38:49 - Blameless, Not Unaccountable 00:46:50 - What Information To Gather 00:50:33 - Running the Review 00:55:15 - Follow Through Is the Whole Point ## RESOURCES / SHOW NOTES - SysAdmin Weekly home and show links: https://www.sysadminweekly.com - SysAdmin Weekly companion newsletter: https://newsletter.sysadminweekly.com - AndyOnTech: https://www.andyontech.com - Project Runspace: https://www.projectrunspace.org - BleepingComputer - Ubiquiti patches three max-severity UniFi OS RCE flaws (CVE-2026-34908, CVE-2026-34909, CVE-2026-34910): https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/ubiquiti-patches-three-max-severity-unifi-os-vulnerabilities/ - Postmortem markdown template (free, CC BY 4.0, version-tracked in the show repo): https://github.com/ProjectRunspace/sysadmin-weekly/blob/main/resources/postmortem_markdown_process_template.md - Pandoc, universal document converter (Markdown to docx): https://pandoc.org - Hugo, the Markdown-driven static site generator: https://gohugo.io

    049 - How Do Attackers Use Local LLMs to Phish At Scale?

    Ask Claude or ChatGPT to write a phishing email and it politely refuses; pull the right open-weight model onto your own laptop and that refusal layer simply does not exist in many cases. Andy brings his InfoSecurity Europe session to the show, and Eric Siron joins to walk through how threat actors run local LLMs on their own hardware to generate targeted spear phishing at scale, in any language, with no internet connection and no guardrails. The guys break down what the attack workflow actually looks like, why these capabilities never disappear once a model is downloaded, and where the real defensive line sits. Spoiler: "spot the typo" awareness training is dead, and verification culture plus strong email authentication is what carries the load now. ## Chapters: 00:00:00 - Cold Open: Local LLMs and Phishing at Scale 00:01:37 - Welcome Back and InfoSecurity Europe 00:03:55 - News React: Washington Pumps the Brakes on Fable 00:06:46 - News React: NY Ghost Gun Printing Law and Google AI Liability 00:12:07 - Nerd Hour: Camera Gear and Mac Studio Dreams 00:13:27 - Nerd Hour: Building the InfoSec Demo 00:15:55 - Show Plugs and Community Links 00:17:00 - Main Topic: What Local LLMs Actually Are 00:21:23 - The Guardrail Gap: Cloud Refuses, Local Complies 00:26:55 - The Demo: 15 Tailored Spear Phishing Lures in 90 Seconds 00:30:04 - Why These Capabilities Never Go Away 00:32:59 - AI on the Defensive Side 00:39:01 - Voice Cloning, Deepfakes, and SPF for Phones 00:46:20 - The Low-Tech Deepfake Defense 00:47:26 - Why Spot-the-Typo Training Is Dead 00:50:09 - Verification Culture and Email Authentication 00:54:32 - Common Questions: Legality, Detection, and Adoption 01:00:18 - Wrap Up: Stay Safe Out There ## Resources / Show Notes: - Ollama, the easiest way to run open models locally: https://ollama.com - Hugging Face, open repository of machine learning models: https://huggingface.co - OpenCode, terminal coding agent that runs against local models: https://opencode.ai - Evilginx, reverse-proxy phishing framework referenced in the demo: https://github.com/kgretzky/evilginx2 - SysAdmin Weekly Episode 024 - On-Prem AI with Ollama (Spotify): https://open.spotify.com/episode/1Huz7fy7axxOqjXei1HLI0 - SysAdmin Weekly - all show links in one place: https://www.sysadminweekly.com - SysAdmin Weekly Newsletter: https://newsletter.sysadminweekly.com - SysAdmin Weekly GitHub Discussions: https://github.com/ProjectRunspace/sysadmin-weekly/discussions - Project Runspace: https://www.projectrunspace.org - AndyOnTech: https://www.andyontech.com
