Blessed: my network cable tester, that made it *only* half a day

@leah Hmm, it's possible the data is bogus. Both the CPU and motherboard came from AliExpress, so rebadging, half-baked firmware or other shenanigans may be present.

Ubuntu 26.04 will ship sudo-rs by default, not sudo from https://sudo.ws. `/usr/bin/sudo` will be an `/etc/alternatives` symlink. sudo-rs is broadly compatible with sudo, but there are differences. A slight gotcha: if you `apt install sudo` (e.g. your existing devops scripts do this for all distros) then it will replace the sudo-rs provided binary, and your Ubuntu 26.04 installation wil be subtly different from out-the-box installations.
