From decaf‑only coffee stunts, BashRC logout traps, PC speaker torture, and ping‑flooded LAN parties to PACMAN.BAT in the school lab, Gentoo use‑flag accidents, OpenStack root‑password “oops” moments, and a threat to invent Fedora.js, they share their most devious tech and non‑tech pranks. Along the way, they talk MSP coffee culture, two‑pots‑a‑day network engineering, Kubernetes as “all YAML,” and close by reminding you not to try any of this at work—no matter how good that April Fools itch feels.</p> <h3>Show Links:</h3> <p>FVWM95 – <a href="https://fvwm95.sourceforge.net/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://fvwm95.sourceforge.net/</a><br> ReactOS – <a href="https://reactos.org/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://reactos.org/</a><br> Kata Containers – <a href="https://katacontainers.io" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://katacontainers.io</a><br> podman – <a href="https://podman.io" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://podman.io</a></p> <h3>Chapters:</h3> <p>00:00:00 Intro – Off the Rails April Fools<br> 00:00:55 Open Source Airplanes and HDMI-to-Floppy<br> 00:01:50 Do Airplane Wings Flap?<br> 00:04:28 Cargo Class and the VM Matrix<br> 00:05:22 Best Tech and Non-Tech Pranks<br> 00:08:49 FVWM95, XFree86, and Fake Windows Desktops<br> 00:14:22 ReactOS and Retro Linux Adventures<br> 00:15:01 Going Vintage in the Future<br> 00:18:09 Bill’s Decaf Coffee and BashRC Pranks<br> 00:19:56 PC Speaker Torture and Random Beeps<br> 00:20:58 Old-School LAN Parties<br> 00:23:05 Ping-Flood LAN Parties and ZipSlack<br> 00:24:21 PSA System Rollback – April Fools<br> 00:25:58 Noel’s PACMAN.BAT and Lab Ban<br> 00:32:02 Linux ISOs and School Network Quotas<br> 00:35:07 Office Built from Old Optiplex Cases<br> 00:39:28 First Home PCs and Gateway Cow Boxes<br> 00:42:06 Serial Mice Still in Production<br> 00:42:56 Gentoo Use Flags and history<br> 00:46:22 OpenStack Cluster and Lost Root Password<br> 00:48:41 Ranking Pranks and Coffee + Desktop Combo<br> 00:50:45 Noel Hates Coffee<br> 00:52:26 MSP Coffee Culture and “I Don’t Know How to Make Coffee”<br> 00:55:51 Weaponized Iced Coffee<br> 00:58:52 /30 Subnets per Phone and Two Pots of Coffee<br> 01:01:10 No Rails<br> 01:02:06 May Your BBQ Sauce Be Watery<br> 01:03:36 Kubernetes Is All YAML<br> 01:04:04 Fedora.js<br> 01:04:57 Disclaimer – Do Not Try This at Work<br> 01:06:01 Ball Pits, Ball.js, and Bouncy Balls<br> 01:07:29 Outro – Where Business Meets Terrible Jokes</p> <h3>Connect with the Hosts:</h3> <p>Bill - @ctlinux on Mastodon<br> Neal - @<a href="mailto:neal@social.gompa.me" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">neal@social.gompa.me</a> on Mastodon<br> Noel - <a href="https://github.com/noelmiller" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">https://github.com/noelmiller</a> </p> open source, opensource, technology, enterprise, business, software, linux, SUDO Show, Linux, April Fools, tech pranks, sysadmin pranks, MSP life, coffee culture, “I don’t know how to make coffee”, Windows 9x, XFree86, X11, FVWM95, Enlightenment E16, ReactOS, Gentoo, use flags, OpenStack, ZipSlack, LAN parties, 10Base2, PC speaker, podman, Kata Containers, containers, VM matrix, Fedora.js, Kubernetes, YAML, HDMI to floppy, open source airplane, PACMAN batch file, school computer lab, Gateway cow boxes, serial mice, bouncy balls SUDO Show 75, “I Don’t Know How to Make Coffee,” is a full‑on April Fools special where “business meets Linux” takes a back seat to pranks, retro war stories, and questionable life choices.
