   Indispensable

   Zabbix has been part of my toolbox for quite some time. I can easily say it's an indispensable tool for me now.

   Managing a dozen servers without Zabbix would be unimaginable. I'm monitoring all of this: CPU, Memory, Hard-drives, website response times, downtime. The UI might be a bit "old school", but everything works flawlessly.

   With regards to hard-drive monitoring, I love the machine learning option that allows you to "predict" the number of days before running out of space. That's quite helpful, as I've got some of my servers down due to running out of space multiple times in the past (before I was using Zabbix).

   👍 Pros:    Open-source|It can monitor everything

   👎 Cons:    The ui is a bit unintuitive in some cases

• Does anyone else feel a lot younger than their peers?

  Like why would I want to watch Breaking Bad or any serious drama when I already lived serious drama all through childhood? Jokes and silliness or I turn it off. Firefly or House MD are about my limit for serious entertainment. And my favorite news channel is one of those old cracked.com comedy writers on YouTube. Source: 12 months ago

• Did you think you could have survived if project zomboid was real?

  The rotting thing is a point ignored by almost all zombie medium. Of course, getting around the initial "dead thing can walk" is a pretty big leap in itself. There's a hilarious article (or there used to be at least) on cracked.com named something like "10 Reasons a Zombie Apocalypse Would Fail (quickly)" and rotting was reason #1 or 2. Best line from the whole article though was "We (humans) are a zombie's... Source: 12 months ago

  He suggested that I indeed should set up a home-lab. To be specific he said that I should create a minimal install of Centos 8 and install zabbix server on it (https://zabbix.com) and monitor a whole bunch of other VMs, services and stuff.. He said that I should set up a variety of VMs and also maybe host a website on one of them. And then if I was able to do that, I could help to share a load of zabbix related...
