    If it works for you, it works. I just see the same phrases used repeatedly so frequently nowdays - including my own LLM conversations. Regarding the use of LLM for picking infra. T…

    I was kind of interested in the content, but I am so overloaded with AI slop by now, that reading this generated text gives me nausea. I was looking to see why they landed on this …

    Hah, what a coincidence, just started to look into yesterday how do I setup LDAP/OIDC on FreeBSD and today I was going to try FreeIPA or Keycloak. Thanks for sharing.
