I was thinking the same thing. We do need more. I set up a Meshtastic node at the house and joined https://chicagolandmesh.org/ which has been a fantastic community for beginners i…

I instantly thought of Reticulum too. I got into LoRa based stuff last weekend and the thought of sending messages super slowly to random people around the Chicago area has me exci…

I use defined.net (managed Nebula) for my homelab and side project overlay networks, and it works great. They have a very generous free tier and I automate enrollment with a set of…

I got hit by the Minio admin change in the console when I upgraded my installation recently, and I found https://github.com/huncrys/minio-console which adds it all back in. It work…

Jason Donenfeld is listed as a Technical Advisor on https://tailscale.com/company . Most companies pay their advisors something, so I assume something monetary is going on here for…

I just learned about ControlD today and It seems their $2/mo per endpoint is pretty pricey. Do you just set it on your home router and that's it? I use my NextDNS with many differe…

This is a pretty decent write up. One thing that comes to mind is why would you write your own internal tooling for managing a rack when Netbox exists? Netbox is fantastic and I wi…

Hah, my gist from 2022 is on this post as a "broken guide". I'd disagree in saying it is broken. It works just fine and I flat out say at the top to not use it if you are worried a…

Woah! Thanks for pointing this feature out. This will be super handy to skip large amounts of output.

I have a rack in a datacenter with mostly 5 year old Supermicro servers. We bought them all off of Ebay for no more than $400 each. They work great and we have more compute and ban…

The big question I have is how well does it work on Linux. I'd assume pretty well considering all of their work on making gaming on Linux a great experience, but if I stream on Dis…

This looks exactly what I have been looking for to put outside of my home office to keep my family from interrupting me during work meetings. Thanks for sharing it!

I play a lot of Path of Exile and one of the best quality of life improvements I did this summer was adding the Fandom Path of Exile wiki URL to my Kagi deny list so it never shows…

This python code looks fantastic. Worked right out of the gate. Thanks! Also I was not aware of the Aranet Radiation sensor. There goes some of my fun budget towards picking one of…

Gentoo Linux will always have a special place in my heart. I learned so much about Linux doing Stage 1 installs back in 2002. I also learned patience with the long compile times an…

I agree with this post so hard. Email is the foundation for people's life online. In fact I am working on building a better self hosted mail platform in my free time because I beli…

I am pretty bummed that they are discontinuing it and not open sourcing the hardware. I use mine at my desk every day to control my desktop Spotify and it is pretty nice having har…

I have been using Ollama to run the Llama3 model and I chat with it via Obsidian using https://github.com/logancyang/obsidian-copilot and I hook VSCode into it with https://github.…

I was thinking about how fun it would be to add this my Python CLI [0] I made for launching Fedora CoreOS locally with QEMU for testing ignition, but with a flag that is turned off…

I am aware of the raw module. The stuff I was doing with Ansible and Fedora CoreOS required more than just that module.

I just started using Pyinfra to wrangle a bunch of servers and it is a breath of fresh air compared to Ansible. I moved all of my server OS installs to Fedora CoreOS which doesn't …

The reaction to Anduril sponsoring Nix is very similar to some people's reaction at Kubecon 2018 where the U.S. Air Force gave a talk about how they are using k8s to deploy softwar…

The major problem is the lack of individual domain knowledge on the underlying server techs that run simple to complex workloads. We have abstracted away a lot of that with APIs an…

Check out Vector for shipping logs from Docker. It might work out for you https://vector.dev/docs/reference/configuration/sources/dock... I use Podman for all of my container stuff…

I recently setup Victoria Metrics + https://github.com/prometheus/snmp_exporter + Grafana to get start tracking bandwidth on my top of rack switches in my Datacenter rack which has…
