You are not logged in. If you use a Fediverse account that is able to follow users, you can follow this user.
- Yes.
- Yes, and if you want custom configuration, you can include your configuration in-line in the same file that installs the http server and sets up systemd for it. Or you can even write your own module that drops configuration files in the same file.
- Home-manager modules are modules that run stuff exclusively in
~, doing things like configuring browsers or dotfiles. As opposed to NixOS modules which configure system-level daemons.
Ah cool, I’ll check it out.
The home manager documentation bothers me a lot
6·1 day agoProbably not that hard to build a simple flask frontend around it.
Automatically processing files in an S3/WebDAV directory would also be useful.

There is also a k3s option for Nixos, which removes the security and side-affect risks of running a random bash script installer.

Very true. Each brick you lay upgrades your setup and your skillset. There are very few mistakes in Kubernetes as long as you make sure your state is backed up.
For question 1: You can have multiple resource objects in a single file, each resource object just needs to be separated by
. The small resource definitions help keep things organized when you’re working with dozens of precisely configured services. It’s a lot more readable than the other solutions out there.For question 2, unfortunately Docker Compose is much more common than Kubernetes. There are definitely some apps that provide kubernetes documentation, especially Kubernetes operators and enterprise stuff, but Docker-Compose definitely has bigger market share for self-hosted apps. You’ll have to get experienced with turning a docker compose example into deployment+service+pvc.
Kubernetes does take a lot of the headaches out of managing self-hosted clusters though. The self-healing, smart networking, and batteries-included operators for reverse-proxy/database/ACME all save so much hassle and maintenance. Definitely Install ingress-nginx, cert-manager, ArgoCD, and CNPG (in order of difficulty).
Try to write yaml resources yourself instead of fiddling with Helm values.yaml. Usually the developer experience is MUCH nicer.
Feel free to take inspiration/copy from my 500+ container cluster: https://codeberg.org/jlh/h5b/src/branch/main/argo
In my repo,
custom_applicationsare directories with hand-written/copy-pasted yaml files auto-synced via ArgoCD Operator, whileexternal_applicationsare helm installations, managed via ArgoCD OperatorApplications.
helm charts are awful, i didn’t really like cdk8s either tbh. I think the future “package format” might be operators or Crossplane Composite Resources

2·6 days agoLike I said, the messaging around the PRC’s imperialistic ambitions in Taiwan goes far beyond the concern around blockades. It’s just interesting from a military/strategic perspective.
Worth noting that even Russia has not been blockaded after it’s imperialistic annexation of Ukraine.
Lots of good points, but one aspect that people haven’t mentioned yet is that Taiwan is part of the “first island chain”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Island_chain_strategy
If the PRC conquers Taiwan, then it makes it much harder for the west to blockade the PRC in future conflicts.
Though technically, it is much more important to control the strait of Malacca than Taiwan.
Brings a new meaning to the phrase “cash me outside”.
Fork of Organic maps, both are still OSM
Then you’d probably swing your sword around and get it stuck in the wall and die. Rapiers and polearms are probably better in tight spaces against unarmored opponents. Polearms are just always better in general if you don’t have sword training.
It’s like comparing a shotgun to a AR-15 pistol. Sure, the pistol is more compact, has more power, and will put more rounds downrange, but they’re all going to be in the ceiling if you haven’t trained with it. The shotgun will be more effective.
