Getting a highly customized build of your operating system that installs headlessly onto 5000 routers in exactly the same way every time, with exactly the same resulting behaviour, surviving upgrades across the fleet deterministically? Trivial, comparatively.

Installing DaVinci Resolve? Oof, hope you had nothing planned this weekend
