Like some other replies said, it probably won’t get you a job by itself. But it may get you the interview if it’s the distinguishing factor between you and an equivalent candidate.

I got RHCSA (and later RHCE), and I think they were worthwhile. On cost, I would not go out of pocket for the Red Hat training if that’s the bundle you’re referring to. That stuff is priced for people that are being funded by their companies. Personally, I did self-study using Sander van Vugt’s materials. He has both books and videos for RHCSA, depending on your learning style. I found them to be excellent preparation for the exam.

That’s awesome. Thanks for posting the pics and assembly.

Good for them.

Depends on what sort of underlying file system you want to use on the drive. For Linux filesystems (ext4, btrfs, zfs etc), here’s a good start: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt

For NTFS, BitLocker is already baked in to Windows.

That’s awesome to hear. I’m looking to set up some self-hosted stuff, and I see a lot of recommendations for Tailscale for the VPN element.

I’m sure this will work out well for them. The legacy social sites are really on a roll this summer.
