Ubuntu ☛ Canonical Ubuntu and Ubuntu Pro now available on AWS European Sovereign Cloud [Ed: AWS or GAFAM is American espionage; a shame that Canonical paints that as anything but]

University of Toronto ☛ Linux network interface names have a length limit, and Netplan
As mentioned in my Fediverse post, Netplan tells you nothing. One direct consequence of this is that in any context where you're writing down your own network interface names, such as VLANs or WireGuard interfaces, simply having 'netplan try' or 'netplan apply' succeed without errors does not mean that your configuration actually works. You'll need to look at error logs and perhaps inventory all your network devices.
