Just started My Little Pony: Tails of Equestria with my wife and 7yo daughter - it’s a blast!

Are you running them from your user session? If so, when you log out it will stop your processes, unless you have enabled ‘linger’ mode.

I noticed fedora comes with OOTB X11 DEs for gnome shell and legacy - it’s just not the first choice in the list.

Yea it’s very easy to learn enough to run, it has built-in service discovery and secrets now, and writing parameterized jobs feels so much nicer than a helm chart in k8s.

10/10, would orchestrate again

I use k8s at work a lot - I choose to use Nomad at home, you may want to add that to your shortlist.

I am nearly complete migrating my ceph cluster and nomad compute cluster to arm :shrug:

A year or two ago (whenever docker changed the business license of docker for Mac) I changed to podman and aliased docker=podman. It behaves the same, you would just about never know rootful podman vs docker.

Rootless podman is super cool and a much better security ideal - but comparing more apples to apples would be podman running as root vs docker.

Nomad is a breath of fresh air after working with k8s professionally.

Don’t get me wrong, love k8s, but it’s a bit much (until you need it)

someone at work got me once by changing my .bashrc to include a file that would sleep 0.001 on every command, but every time the file was sourced it would edit itself to increase the time by 0.001 seconds.

A week later I was about to toss my computer off the roof.

How excellent for my MQTT behind nginx next to my pihole

Nanopi R5C

Nanopi R5C. Cute little buggers too.

I have 2 pi4 4GB boards and was waiting forever to get a third to run RAFT based services across.

I gave up last year and bought 3 chinese boards at $60/ea with 2x 2.5Gb Ethernet each, emmc, and a m.2 slot - and they run at half the temp of the pi4 boards.

I never needed the wifi/bt and form-factor the pi boards offered anyway - really no reason to stay as long as you can find software that boots on other boards.

I run drone.io with gitea, it’s nice, doesn’t do much when it’s not working.

Gitea added their own CI tooling that is configured like GitHub actions as well - I haven’t tried it yet though.

Ceph (rbd,s3) on 4 poweredges.

Nomad, Consul servers running in a 3 node raft on some ARM SBCs.

Nomad clients on 2 poweredges and 3 arm SBCs running:

• s3 CSI (media and large file storage is all on s3)
• rbd CSI (all the stateful jobs have rbd block devices)
• NATS cluster with Jetstream to enable MQTT support
• mosquito mqtt (had to run mosquito for mqtt v5)
• mosquito<->nats bridge (via benthos)
• nodered (just for easy Google home integration)
• zwavejs2mqtt
• zigbee2mqtt
• frigate (can only talk mqtt v5 so had to run mosquito just for this)
• grafana
• gotify
• gitea
• drone CI
• postgresql
• BitTorrent client
• ceph rgw s3 gateways
• NATS based home automation lambdas - I wrote these in go
• Adguard home
• traefik as main ingress
• Prometheus
• prom node exporter
• jellyfin
• jackett
• a program I wrote that manages torznab->acquisiton->s3 lifecycle
• a website
• wireguard servers

And that is just in the server room - I also have more like the 3d printer and CNC machine controllers etc.
