Episode 8: On the third day of BOFH-mas the sales guy took from me: 3 MFPs, 2 unasked-for shoves, and a cartridge in a cup of tea...
Official docs, that's it. kubeadm init with a pod cidr and dns name for the control plane.
For network and network policies I went with calico. I think flannel and ovn are better, but our prod and staging on eks run calico, hence the choice. Metrics server afterwards and now I'm at the before mentioned spot of trying to figure out certs. I think cert-manager is my choice, but at the same time I got sidetracked with reworking our internal ca. Current is rsa and I want ed25519 plus a bit more automation.
I've spun up my first real kubernetes cluster
All on my own!
I've heard horror stories about it taking months upon months in the past and they've been keeping me from trying. Silly me :)
It took under two days; and most of the time was trying to figure out all the problems caused by being behind a an http proxy. Looking back, I can see it can be done in a minute or so now that I've got a few bits of config nailed down.
Granted this is a very bare bones cluster atm, but applying that test nginx deployment and seeing all three replicas running, one on each node, has sent me buzzing :)
Next step - generating an internal intermediate and shoving it into the cluster.
Happy Monday!
It was, but it's been back for some years now
Pope Francis dies aged 88, Vatican says
www.bbc.co.uk Tens of thousands of pilgrims flock to Rome ahead of Pope's funeral on Saturday
The pontiff, who was the first Latin American leader of the Roman Catholic Church, died on Monday aged 88.
This is put so beautifully!
Is this from some sort of q&a?
Oh yes, absolutely, to everything you've said. Every pixel on the matrix has to be wired up individually. My only argument would be that we've already reached ridiculous resolutions on phones - might as well plop a square sensor in.
What @dave@lemmy.nz said.
Although we could just use a square matrix.
Point taken :D Coffee must kick in at some point.

And then someone knocked from beneath.
I, personally, like a language being rich. Nothing wrong with not knowing all the ins and outs, but calling for simplification on what is already an very simple language is odd.
I don't see how any country's supreme court, other than Salvador's, could give any orders that would be followed in Salvador.
Screen tearing is no longer an issue, at least on wayland. As for simple... it's different.
Painting your room is to windows like building a house is to linux.
Windows makes it simple to paint your room while linux enables you to build whatever house you want. Nothing is ever free and as such - sometimes certain tradeoffs have to be made that get in a way of what you might consider "simple".
Mini Metro was the first thing that came to mind. Fun little time waster.
Losing*
Knot is loose. Game is lost.
It's the wording itself that matters here. A MoFA of a small, but relevant nation using the exact phrasing of article 7 is how you get the ball rolling. This is a good sign.
Mainframes have nothing to do with this.
RISCV is still just a computer - would work just fine on a logical level. Raw compute would be an issue with today's hardware.
None of these would surprise me given ij baby/toddler context!
Shameless plug for !mealtimevideos@lemmy.cafe - duration is in the post title.
It does sound a bit like creating plausible deniability for some sketchy transactions later on.
That is not at all the case in this context.
The problem is running GUI code as root as it's never been vetted for that. What you want, effectively, is to have EDITOR variable of your session set to kate and open system files using sudoedit. I'm a terminal guy myself, so this exact thing is enough for me. Having said that - I'm sure someone will chime in with a plugin/addon/extension/etc that adds this to the right click context for what I assume is KDE. Or you can try looking for that om your favourite search engine.

Maintenance Complete
Everything went through smoothly, but please do report if you notice anything.
13 October, Sunday, 12:00 UTC
Lemmy Cafe will be having its database upgraded.
Reasons
- PostgreSQL 17 has been released and the changelog is promising a lot of IO improvements. Lemmy sure could use it given the constant stream of small events flowing in.
Plan
- Point
nginxto the maintenance page - Shut down PostgreSQL 16
- Run the upgrade tool
- Start up PostgreSQL 17
- Point
nginxto lemmy
Expected downtime
About an hour, if things go well. More if not so.
Will try to keep the maintenance page updated.

Lemmy.Cafe Housekeeping
Due to the recent @Soup's post I have decided to do some housekeeping. I've been getting frustrated at lemmy's performance at times as well and this simply was a wake up call, if you will.
I am sorry about no advance downtime annoucement - Sunday is the only day I can really put any meaningful amount of time into lemmy.
Things done today:
- Upgraded
databaseVM 1 core 2GB -> 2 cores 4GB. Double the compute, double the memory. - Adjusted database config to account for increased resources
- Adjusted
hugepagesconfig to account for increased database's requests - Updated both lemmy and database VMs
- Rebooted the lot
Thank you for your patience. I will also use this moment of focus to write up a financial report in a separate post.
Also, thank you, @Soup!
