Usually yes, but i wouldn't mind a single 8TB drive just as a backup location. All my data is already on a nice redundant system at home, but having just 1 extra replica somewhere else would be really good.

I don't know the specifics of the Net6501, but can't you do a foreign debootstrap where you let debootstrap copy all files on a machine that is already installed, then boot it up on the Soekris itself and let it do the rest of its

Yes, but then they have been made explicitly and they show up in a directory listing. If you would make the filesystem case insensitive ls would only show a.txt, but suddenly a "virtual" A.txt a.Txt etc would also exist. Now there

Yes, because the banks are not the ones who should be protecting the consumer. There are consumer protection laws in place to do the same thing the credit card companies seem to take care of from my POV :)

I've played with both BeOS and Haiku, and I would say Haiku is practically the same UX wise. They have built more tooling etc on Haiku, like a package manager where as far as i remember BeOS was More windows like (download file, instal

Thanks for the hint on replacing the heatsink on the x220. A quick search lead me to a reddit post claiming the heatsink from the x230 can be fitted to a x220. Is this what you did, or did you do something else entirely?

In the article the creator of the font said that they see it as "an echo or a simulacrum", IANAL, but i would say that that recreation is a work of its own under at least copyright law. And ignoring the legal angle for a moment, t

But i remember a machine managed by another organisation entirely still whitelisting me to do sudo service invocations. Apparently i could have gotten root on that machine.

I am personally more annoyed by the drunk people than i am by the high/stoned people.

Well, yes and no. On modern enough hardware you can do nested virtualisation, so you can run kvm in esxi on hyper-v if you want. Not that it's very usefull, but it is a fun weekend project nonetheless.

Thanks for sharing, I've always thought cable lacing is one of the most beautiful ways of doing permanent installs.

Color is not the only variable here, there are many variables in picking a tape for a job. Of course usually just plain tape will do, but the article gave a very good example: “Imagine you are a stage technician and you need to tape a lamp

As a user of feedity I'd just like to take a moment to say Thanks!

I may be old, but if you have a network loop inside your own infrastructure wouldn't it be way more sane to handle that on layer 2? for instance with properly configured spanning tree?

Looking at the graphs on github you could say development has slowed down, but i'd like to argue that since there is no commercial incentive anymore the project seems to be much more focussed on stability. And when bugfixing you write

I'm guessing you mean for a work machine as an entertainment machine(like gaming) would easily use more than 256G. My dev machines have 120G ssds and that's enough. The real number crunching happens on a machine that has 2 960G ss

I really like the core of gitlab. It's a really good git hosting system that is easy to maintain and work with. My self hosted instance has broken only twice in the last 1.5 years and it was always because of an upgrade and it was alwa

Personally i don't even want to care about the IPs of the physical machines, just put together a box, plug power and network in (given a properly configured switch) and boot it up from the rest of the cluster. in the "boot up firs

Yes i have, and i'm running MAAS on a colocated box as well to install ubuntu on virtual machines. But when you pair it with Juju the licensing becomes a bit expensive as far as i remember, So that's the layer I’m working on to re

Tbh it's been a while since I looked into Triton, but it should operate in the same "feed it hardware and run virtual machines" space. I might experiment with running the components on top of smartos because of all the nicene

Yes! I've been thinking of ways to do this, and the idea on top of my list is a live usb image that asks for stuff like network parameters, then configures the live image as a 90% functional node from which the first real host can be p

I want to build a set of tools to build a full private cloud on bare metal with zero single points of failure. Essentially a full replacement of Fuel and Openstack. I've already started on a full multi master dhcp server to assign ip a

Thanks for another update! I’ve been running gitlab-ce for over a year now for my sideprojects and random small backups. I don't use any of the more advanced features like ci, but the core has been really great to use. For reference, i
