[1885.54 --> 1886.18] There you go.
[1886.46 --> 1887.36] How did I know?
[1887.44 --> 1888.20] How did I know?
[1888.28 --> 1889.68] That would be your suggestion, Alex.
[1889.68 --> 1894.36] Well, see, this is why I'm going to say subscribe to your channel, Jeff, because there's just some great videos over there.
[1894.52 --> 1896.86] And maybe one day I'll see that project on there.
[1897.18 --> 1897.74] I hope so.
[1897.90 --> 1898.52] That would be fun.
[1898.76 --> 1904.20] Well, Jeff, before we get out of here, I was wondering if there's any way you'd like to send people your channel or Twitter or something like that.
[1904.62 --> 1908.10] Everything is linked from my personal website, jeffgearling.com.
[1908.62 --> 1913.40] I started my personal site back in 2001 or 2002 or something like that.
[1913.88 --> 1916.98] And I like to have my data in my site.
[1916.98 --> 1919.54] So I typically post things preferentially there.
[1920.46 --> 1924.22] And, you know, I can't do video hosting and things like that.
[1924.36 --> 1931.56] I could, and I actually did at one point, but I realized that YouTube does it way better than I ever could with streaming and all that kind of stuff.
[1931.66 --> 1933.92] So I like to take ownership of that.
[1934.08 --> 1936.96] So jeffgearling.com is where I throw everything primarily.
[1937.16 --> 1939.58] And then you can go to the other sites from there.
[1940.02 --> 1941.28] We'll have a link in our show notes, too.
[1941.38 --> 1942.26] Thanks for joining us, Jeff.
[1942.56 --> 1944.00] Yeah, thanks so much for having me.
[1944.00 --> 1947.28] And a big thank you from me because you saved my bacon.
[1947.84 --> 1951.20] I can't count the number of times with the roles on Ansible Galaxy.
[1951.46 --> 1952.68] So huge, huge past Alex.
[1952.84 --> 1953.78] Thanks, current Jeff.
[1956.82 --> 1959.42] Well, now I'm even more excited about the Raspberry Pi.
[1959.56 --> 1960.58] Thanks to Jeff for coming on.
[1960.62 --> 1964.74] And of course, like we said, we have links to his channel and everything in the show notes.
[1964.94 --> 1968.40] And I want to mention you can find our sponsor, Cloud Guru, on social media.
[1968.40 --> 1973.76] It's just slash a Cloud Guru at YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, like all the social media platforms.
[1973.84 --> 1974.68] Just slash a Cloud Guru.
[1974.80 --> 1975.88] It's super, super easy.
[1976.34 --> 1980.24] And a big thank you to our members over at selfhosted.show slash SRE.
[1980.46 --> 1982.54] Our site reliability engineers support the show.
[1982.86 --> 1987.54] You guys get a limited ad feed and a little bit of extra post show every week.
[1987.88 --> 1988.10] Oh, yeah.
[1988.10 --> 1989.74] I haven't told you what I want to talk about yet.
[1989.80 --> 1991.28] That's coming up for the members.
[1991.46 --> 1991.94] No, no.
[1992.00 --> 1993.32] It's going to be a surprise to me, too.
[1994.04 --> 1996.20] And you can go to selfhosted.show slash contact.
[1996.42 --> 1998.06] That's the place to go to get in touch with us.
[1998.06 --> 1999.78] I'm on Twitter at ironicbadger.
[2000.18 --> 2001.84] Yeah, I'm there, too, at Chris LAS.
[2002.06 --> 2004.66] And the show is at selfhostedshow.
[2004.80 --> 2006.78] And don't forget the network at Jupyter Signal.
[2007.26 --> 2008.20] Thanks for listening, everyone.
[2008.40 --> 2010.66] That was selfhosted.show slash 41.
