      I've decided I'm going to start looking for a new job. I'm a software product manager in the US and will be looking for senior positions, hopefully remote. Has anyone used a service to help find jobs before? This is the first one I've come across and I'm considering it.

    12. Quick question after a kernel update, mostly fear-based

      As some are aware, my NAS hates me. Anyway, I ran an update just now and it spat out the following:

      Setting up linux-firmware (1.187.27) ...
      update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.13.0-30-generic
      I: The initramfs will attempt to resume from /dev/sdb2
      I: (UUID=e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f)
      I: Set the RESUME variable to override this.
      update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-5.11.0-27-generic

      I: (UUID=e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f)
      

      UUID=e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f is /swap.

      /dev/sdb2: UUID="e6480da4-95f0-4cf3-a047-a43ef09f978f" TYPE="swap" PARTUUID="329487d0-88c7-4d47-ab82-dc4b80bd3bfe"
      

      The full log is below. If I reboot this thing, will it tell me that it cannot find GRUB like the previous installation that shit the bed?

      My assumption is that its simply telling me that it's enabled some sort of hibernation and will use the /swap for that.. but I'm totally on edge with this thing. I don't have a lot to set up with the system-side of things, so I put off trying to fix the old installation from the previous post until later.

      Anyway, does anything here seem fishy?
