On May 13, Hell froze over, and Oracle released Solaris 11.4.81 CBE. I just want to point out that this really doesn't make Oracle any less shitty—this will never change, but now they're still shitty but with a fresh Solaris 11 control. Well,

We are not enemies either. These days I'm mostly indifferent, that's all. I used to oppose K8S with every inch of my body. Not anymore, at least. Frankly, it's not K8S that bothers me—it's everything that comes along and around it.

I've been meaning to start this (what I hope will eventually become) series for a very long time. There's a lot I'd like to cover, and it was daunting to figure out how to actually get going. I think this quick introduction is going

Here's what I wrote, almost 9y ago: After seven years of maintaining PPA with custom packages for Debian, I now decided to finally drop and close it. I no longer use Debian as my main Linux distribution hence I have no need nor interest in providing any builds

Kev Quirk: The last point I'll make is this - the fedi is supposed to be a friendly, welcoming online space, right? But the fact is, it isn't. It's just like everywhere else online - the vocal minority are just as loud, and just

Casey Liss: However, a few years back, Eero fell victim to every corporation’s favorite thing: recurring revenue. Eero started quietly pushing Eero Plus, a subscription service that I was largely uninterested in. Honestly, I was preparing for some shit hitting the fan much earlier after Amazon's acquisition.

OPNsense 24.1 releasedOPNsense 24.1 released Last summer I finally bit the bullet and decided to setup a firewall at home. I went with cheap Mini PC with dual NICs to serve this purpose. My initial choice of the operating system went to pfSense, but with all the drama

Thorsten Ball: Now you’re thinking: does it matter? 100ms? 200ms? Come on, dude. And I’m telling you: yes it matters. Of course it matters. Those who don’t honor the milliseconds will end up with seconds. 100%, it absolutely matters. Who wants to walk around with clown shoes

I learned about Project 365 from this post by Joe Hribar. By the end of 2019 I decided to give it a shot myself for 2020 – little did I know how difficult of a year it’s going to be. It was also a leap year, so my Project 365

There I was, wanting to write these every six months... Maybe I will better outline them now that I discovered the absolutely fabulous[1] app named Folding Text. It's been already over a year after last status post and boy, oh boy, a lot has happened during that

OK, so it’s been a while since the last status update and I was going do these round-about every six months. No big deal, no big deal, but I do feel the need to communicate a thing or two. In slightly particular order: * As was silently announced on the

After years of using Ghost, last month I got back to WordPress as my blogging platform. Overall, that was the right choice to make, long overdue really. Using something that is pretty much a standard for running blogs these days makes things a lot easier. Additionally, unlike many others, I&

I loved the very idea of Tapestry from the get-go. That‘s part of the reason I went ahead and backed them on Kickstarter—that‘s not something I do, like, ever. I craved early access to TestFlight and I‘ve been heavily anticipating the final release. But then I

OK, let’s start with DoT definition: DNS over TLS (DoT) is a security protocol for encrypting and wrapping Domain Name System (DNS) queries and answers via the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol. The goal of the method is to increase user privacy and security by preventing eavesdropping and manipulation

Latest 3.1.1 update broke a lot for me (fzf integration under ⌃ + R as one example). How to downgrade? Depends on the answer of the following command: brew list --versions fish fish 3.1.0_1 3.1.1 If you see both versions as above, you may just

There’s this craving out there in the industry. Imagine walking around with super powerful device inside your pocket. You can do all sorts of cool things on it like browsing the Internet, taking amazing pictures, listening to the music, downloading apps, documents and what not. Not that hard to

This is just a quick heads-up. Sure, Android 4.0.x and 4.1.x were available for quite some time via CM9 and CM10, but for the official one Galaxy Tab 10.1 users needed to wait really long time. Now, you can go and grab ICS 4.0.

In this particular example, I’ll show how to do that on this specification: OS: Debian Sid Phone: Samsung Galaxy SL (i9003) Software: Heimdall 1.3.1 ROM: XXKPQ (taken from here) Basically it should work on any operating system, cause Heimdall (tool used for flashing) is available for any

Apparently it’s a thing to create Beatles after Beatles albums. I guess the most famous one must be The Black Album from the Boyhood movie. Recently my brother passed me a link to this video: The Lost Beatles Album of 1971 | Vinyl Rewind. And it’s just wonderful. I

When I was dipping my toes for the first time in Debian world, I knew right off the bat, that I'll want to learn how to build proper packages for it. It took me much longer to actually learn my ways around it, and I don't

Few years ago I got inspired by DF Tootbot and decided that I'd like to have something of this sort for my own blog. I knew I'll need something along the lines of what he was using, simply because it's a rather universal approach
