About

Hey everyone! Thanks for finding my Blog! You, must not have anything to do! So, let’s talk about something that really gets my heart racing... technical Blogs! I mean, who doesn’t love a good read about Active Directory, coding, and the occasional rant about Security? You ever notice that technical blogs are like the IKEA manuals of the internet? They promise you a beautiful piece of furniture, but they give you a thousand confusing steps in a language that seems to be a mix of English and JSON. You’re sitting there, reading about ‘Linux’ and thinking, ‘Is this an Operating System’, or am I trying to understand my last relationship?’ And what's with the jargon? You’re reading along and suddenly you hit a phrase like ‘Chown.’ Hope he doesn’t want me to go down into the sewer. You know, I once tried to follow a technical blog tutorial on building a website. I thought I’d come out of it a digital Picasso. Instead, I ended up with a broken link and at the Museum of Bad Art. My website looked less like a portfolio and more like a crime scene. And don’t get me started on the comments section! You have these tech-savvy geniuses arguing over who has the better programming language like it’s the World Cup of Coding. ‘C++ is better!’ ‘No, Python for the win!’ I’m just sitting here like, ‘Can I just get a blog about cat videos instead?’ But here’s the thing – technical blogs are essential! They give us the knowledge to navigate a world dominated by technology. They teach us to troubleshoot when our Wi-Fi goes down. Seriously, if you can’t fix your Wi-Fi, are you even living in 2023? So, let’s raise a glass to the technical bloggers out there! May your posts be error-free, your codes be clean, and your metaphors make sense. And if you ever need a break from coding, just remember: there’s always a cat video waiting to make you feel better! Thanks for being here! I’m off to troubleshoot my own life!

Luis' Technical Blog

Hello everyone, first of all, thank you for this opportunity to introduce myself to you. My name is Luis, I am a Active Directory engineer with over 20 years of experience in various technologies. I have worked in teaching people the CCNA, A+, Net+ and Microsoft Server technologies. Of course, I have worked in various aspects of Windows technologies, Security, Active Directory Administration and maintenance, Azure Administration, Windows Server Administration, Networking, Scripting, Linux Administration, Macintosh Systems Administration and Project Management. I have wanted to start writing about some of the issues and experiences I have encountered during my times working and post some of the documentation I have written.

Hopefully, someone might some of this information useful.

Hey everyone! Great to be here! So, let’s talk about the Windows operating system. Ah, good ol’ Windows. The only OS that makes you question your life choices every time you boot up your computer. Seriously, it’s like jumping into a time machine and ending up in a dysfunctional tech family reunion.

I mean, Linux is like the hipster of operating systems, right? You know, the kind that got there first but insists it was *always* better because it was “open-source.” Yeah, open-source! It’s like they’re saying, “Hey, I’m not just free; I’m also a little confusing on purpose!”

But in all seriousness, folks, computer security is important. So make sure to protect yourself. Use strong passwords, stay aware, and if you see a suspicious email, remember: the only thing you should open are snacks! Stay safe out there, and remember—laughter is the best antivirus!

I recently learned about Python. Python? Seriously? Who named it? Monty Python!!! I can’t take it seriously! When I think of Python, I think of snakes, not programming! And can you imagine a Python programmer? They must be the only people who can have “serpent” in their job title and not get kicked out of church!

No matter how frustrating computer networking can be, let’s be real, we love the connectivity. It brings us together, makes our lives that much easier…So when your internet goes down,
Don’t forget to connect with each other... just make sure your passwords are stronger than your relationships!

Let’s talk about project management. Yeah, that magical land where optimism goes to die.
You ever notice that project managers have the incredible ability to turn a simple email into a full-blown meeting? “We need to send an email.” “Okay, let’s draft a checklist, set a calendar invite, and hold a meeting to discuss the email.”
