yeah and both ways are wrong. I have as much in common with the the german nazis as i have with the japanese war crimes with the chinese and i am german.

We should have strived for understanding that racism is to be fought against and not "hey these countries are bad because they lost" If you have seen the horrors what the americans did to the vietnamese or other way around, or the serbs against their neighbors the bosnians, you come to the conclusion every country is shit.

We need to understand as a species that in order to evolve, we need to break out of the violence and dumb wars, over resources. We have so much potential and we are wasting it, because of stupid and greedy people pushing misery and hate. Don't get me started on religion

or treat vm's as containers and just spawn a single process in a firecracker vm. More secure than containers will ever be and just as easy as another vm. Could be managed by kubernetes if you like or need to manage many of these.

i had such a hard time learning traefik and transitioning to V2. I do not fall into the standard case, wanting to use traefik for containers, not running on the same host (you cannot have labels annoted as the docs suggest, if the container is on another host) Docs were sparse and also not wanted to use the env vars for the traefik config as well, so took a bit of fumbling and reading and eventually i figured it out, but was almost on the verge of going back to haproxy

you don't need to simulate everything in a big monolith and with all the complexity of everybody in it, that does not scale well.

You only need to simulate the perspective of you and what you can see, observe and the interactions you make right now.

Same as video games just render in a certain radius around you.

That scales well per human. Heck everybody around you might be an NPC and you will never know

for me it would be a lot of underlying complexity for "just" exposing docker-compose containers to the internet.

I don't really understand the target audience here. If you need to manage dns, server hardening, backups, upgrades, internet exposing and evaluating the risks behind that, you should be able to do the rest yourself too. And it is single server only

minio is good but you really need fast disks. They also really don't like, when you want to change the size of your cluster setup. No plan to add cache disks, they just say use faster disks. I have it running, goes smoothly but not really user friendly to optimize

Problem is that management is usually not skilled enough (or just greedy for bonus money short term) to understand what is happening. Cloud is good if you are tiny or need to scale really fast if you are growing and then move out of it. For the bigger companies it can be a good strategy to scale out, but for that you only need IAAS and no fancy cloud vendor lock-in products. you will always be cheaper if you build it on your own, if your usecase is heavy load.

you might be cheaper with colocation instead of building your own datacenter but most enterprises still have a need for their own anyway.

i think i will still be in tech when the pendulum swings back to on-prem, when everybody notices how awfully expensive the cloud is, after the bigger players raise the prices at will, because they killed off the competition.

if it works for them, let them have it.

i stopped reading the spec, after i have seen that the only label they attach is the lb. anyone who really uses k8s will not at this product longer than it takes, reading the readme or the first bit of code.

tl:dr operating yourself around 6-10k€/year fixed price for hosting the 500TB. If cloudflare offers to store that and operate it for free this is a no brainer for cloudfare R2, if the 32k migration is really a one time only cost.

i personally would invest in a solution which decreases or at least flattens the cost, when the storage needs increase, instead of the current linear curve. Biggest problem in "cloud" and biggest win in hosting yourself.

if you want to do it yourself i would probably think about something like this:

500TB with 20tb hdd's are around 28 disks needed. This will cost between 15-20.000€ per server(4U with sata/sas controller and 36-40 disk chassis)

with no raid and high availability you will need 2 locations and 2 servers in a colocated setup. i would say colo will cost you 500-1000€ a month

Then you would use the cloudflare cdn with their OSS offering and be done with it.

initial cost 40k operational cost + colo = around 6-12k/year i would assume, if you have people nearby to do maintenance.

it really feels like, they should have been given just pure venture capital and a lot more time and test hardware in small batches. And then with enough knowledge pick real good hardware and then deliver a kick ass linux phone. The processor is about 6 years old, a lot will not be working at this time, i still support the idea of a linux phone, i really hope it gets better in the next few years. this android, ios duopoly really sucks ass

so i have to use a menu, to select a dozen things to setup a single system, with the non changeable defaults, they will select for me. (why would i install node, or dos2unix or midnight commander?) and they install as default ruby, which most of use don't use at all so giving us bloat for not much function.

it writes its alias in the global space instead of the local user

echo $insert_alias | sudo tee -a /etc/bash.bashrc

This feels like a tool for users switching from windows to linux, to be able to flatten the learning curve. For any user that is a little bit familiar with linux, this i a major downgrade to any other toolset IMO.

i would open an issue, but they don't offer that on the repo

to post feedback you have to register with a service called "Canny"

the other issues channel is discord

a few suggestions:

- run shellcheck and fix the issues and warnings

- publish tags, so people can select versions

- add customization to the installed packages

- actually document how to use the parameters, the scripts offer, instead of just not doing that

- add an uninstall script!

- add a silent command (run with parameters to automate the menu selects, why would i want to do this manually or remember what i selected on every machine?)

I mean its free and all, but reads like a product, which needs a developer who cares about a few industry standards, or just needs more time (first code commit was on Nov 27, 2022

Sounds like it fits their needs, but ansible sounds like a much better choice and also sounds like they have the "not invented here" problem

i have a planck, a preonic, a moonlander and i am not happy with any of them.

My best choice i think would be a better version of the Natural Ergonomics Microsoft Elite Keyboard. This thing with half height mechanical keys, qmk firmware, without the numpad and a split space key would be awesome. Maybe i am building one, thinking about it know
