tl;dr: MongoDB is Web Scale.

I recently got myself a Keychron V3 Max with ISO TKL, which has hotswappable switches and a gasket mount.

EDIT: Keebfinder is nice to get a good overview.

I’ve read in another article that NG Lv 1 means that the drive is recoverable and NG Lv 2 that the drive is unrecoverable.

Gut, Europa muss hinter der Ukraine stehen, auch bei solchen Treffen. Im Februar haben wir gesehen, wie Trump mit Selenskyj umspringt, wenn man ihn lässt. Das möchte ich nicht noch einmal erleben müssen.

I’m thinking about just doing something outside kubernetes that just copies the data from the directory that NFS provides to another storage.

This is what I’m doing for the most part. A TrueNAS server provides the NFS shares and periodically backs them up with restic.

Some apps don’t like NFS very much, especially those that require SQLite. If you’re running Jellyfin over NFS you probably know what I mean. For those apps I use Ceph instead, which is highly available and a lot faster but also more complicated. Those PVCs I backup from within kubernetes to S3 storage with velero.

I use GitLab at work and Forgejo at home. GitLab is huge, Forgejo is lighter. GitLab Runner is very nice, Woodpecker was a pain to setup but it now does everything I need. GitLab supports subgroups, Forgejo does not. Forgejo is FOSS with a non-profit behind it, GitLab Inc. is for-profit.

At the end, I like to work with both. GitLab has lots of features, but for my own stuff Forgejo serves me very well and I like the openness of it.

How about private repositories?

In many cases, yes, we do allow them (under certain conditions)!

Our priority is to support the free content and free and open-source software ecosystems. As such, we cannot invest time, hardware and resources to provide private hosting for everyone. However, contributors to the aforementioned ecosystems can use up to 100 MB of private content at their own convenience.

Uhhh, git add -p?

Parents naturally have children. Children that will very much be alive to experience the “find out” part. I am incapable of comprehending how shortsighted and self centered someone has to be to be like: Well, at least I had a nice life, good luck everybody!

And on a low level, they’re kind of right because most ordinary people aren’t to blame for this, so shaming “parents” makes no sense.

Shame the international petroleum conglomerates, plastic producers, shipping, etc. You know, the actual emitters in the billions of gigatons.

I agree that ordinary people are only partly to blame and that we need to focus on the worst offenders. However, the indifference of large parts of previous generations surely enabled much of the current situation. Most of our parents could vote, most had a chance to drive a tiny bit of change in some kind of way. Some even held positions of power or still do. Putting some blame on them surely isn’t wrong, especially if they still don’t care.

I use Promtail + Loki + Grafana to monitor application logs. Promtail scrapes logs, Loki stores and indexes them and Grafana can query Loki with LogQL and also send alerts.

Apparently Promtail is superseded by Grafana Alloy, which I don’t have experience with.

Anyway, I set this up mostly for fun and to preserve logs of terminated pods in my kubernetes cluster. I don’t have any alerts in place, but I probably could.

Malicious design is putting it mildly. This is fraud with a bit of blackmail sprinkled in. They bricked perfectly functioning trains that their customers already had paid for, because another workshop was chosen for servicing them after the warranty period of the train ended. Then they charged over 20k € to unlock trains they deliberately locked before. The unlocking itself took them 10 minutes.

In a just world the Newag CEOs would go to jail for this, but sadly we all know this won’t happen.

Seems to be fake, it’s just one random source and the wife is saying he’s alive (for now).

Anyway, moving on.

No, it’s permanent. They call it “VPS XS”, here (in german). Sadly a initial one-time payment of 10€ required, I forgot about that.

On ionos.com the same VPS costs $2/month. No one-time payment though.

The unique selling point of this VPS for me was the low price combined with unlimited traffic. Sometimes my nebula lighthouse needs to proxy traffic for peers that can’t talk to each other directly. It’s nice not to worry about traffic then.

Ha, that’s a good question: I don’t. I chose a rather long time for the certs validity and then promised to myself that I will extend my ansible playbook when I need to.

I’m not using Pangolin, but a 1€/month VPS from IONOS serves as my nebula lighthouse.

The question you’re asking is too broad. Every tool somehow differs from the others, but listing all differences requires in-depth knowledge of each tool and a lot of time.

At the end of the day, every tool somehow backs up your data. CLI interfaces, encryption algorithms, deduplication logic, supported backends, underlying programming languages and a lot more may differ. Identify what’s most important to you, test different solutions and then use the tool that works best for your use-case.

auf ihre eigenen Leute schießen ist zwar sehr dumm, aber diplomatisch unbedenklich.

Ich atmete hörbar aus.
