What I did this week

This week, we had a new lab about system imaging, had our monthly check-in, and got some articles presented. Let’s go!

So for the lab, we studied into how to use an application called Acronis to create and save system images, snapshots of entire drives intended for backup routines transitions of systems between hardware. We used Acronis to create both sysprepped and unsysprepped drives, and then moved on to other applications. Due to technical difficulties, I was only able to finish the image process with the application ‘Clonezilla’, but was able to complete most of the other parts of the lab. The required lab was fully completed, and the advanced lab had the pre-lab portion completed.

Check-ins went well. I am still struggling with meeting my required hours of SkillShare, but we came up with some strategies to help myself get the hours in next week. Hopefully I can implement these strategies successfully.

As for the articles, the hot topic was by-and-large AI. Many are amused and worried about the new technology, and where it seems to be taking us in terms of the wider market. Opinions entered mixed, and they left mixed. Only time will tell if these forces influence humanity for good or evil.

Overall, I would say it was a good week.
