MAC is generally more complex than simple Unix permissions. Whether SELinux is more complex than AppArmour is more up to preference in my opinion

Considering I am the operations team, just goes to show how much I have left to learn. I didn't know about the external-dns operator.

Unfortunately, my company is a bit strange with certs and won't let me handle them myself. Something to check out at home I guess.

I agree with you about the LVM. I have been meaning to set up Rook forever but never got around to it. It might still take a while but thanks for the reminder.

Wow. That must have been some work. I don't have these certs myself but I'm looking at the CKA and CKS (or whatever that's called). For sure, I loved our discussion. Thanks for your help.

ACLs are pretty good and have come in handy for me multiple times

I am using a reverse proxy in production. I just didn't mention it here.

I'd have to set up a DNS record for both. I'd also have to create and rotate certs for both.

We use LVM, I simply mounted a volume for /usr/share/elasticsearch. The VMWare team will handle the underlying storage.

I agree with manually dealing with the repo. I dont think I'd set up unattended upgrades for my k8s cluster either so that's moot. Downtime is not a big deal: this is not external and I've got 5 nodes. I guess if I didn't use Ansible it would be a bit more legwork but that's about it.

Overall I think we missed each other here.

SRE here and I agree with you. I'm basically a glorified Linux admin lol

The very act of writing FOSS code is altruistic. Indeed, I'm looking at the big corporations when I point and say "thief!".

Some companies do work that I like though. Mullvad is a prime example. Recently I've been looking at Nym and I like their ideas and work. I really liked that the big giants like Google and IBM collaborated for k8s. I believe Uber has done something wonderful for the FOSS community too but I don't remember what it is. The fact is that they can if they try

I understand that if your boss tells you to write MIT/Proprietary code, you do so. I just wish that the ones who had a choice would use GPL

I understand. I can't argue against wanting to earn money and be told to do something. I just wish that those that have a choice would take the extra minute to use GPL

Because most corporations do not contribute their changes back if it's MIT/BSD licensed

Look, I understand if your boss tells you to not write Open-source/only use MIT so they can profit off of it later on. But for the people who have a choice, why wouldn't they? I don't see how it hurts their bottom line.

I'm middle class and here I am raging on Lemmy about software licenses LMAO

I didn't think most of them allow port-forwarding

No idea. I personally use PVs and PVCs with k3s and it's trivial there with some downtime

 

This is not a troll post. I'm genuinely confused as to why SELinux gets so much of hate. I have to say, I feel that it's a fairly robust system. The times when I had issues with it, I created a custom policy in the relevant directory and things were fixed. Maybe a couple of modules here and there at the most. It took me about 15 minutes max to figure out what permissions were being blocked and copy the commands from. Red Hat's guide.

So yeah, why do we hate SELinux?

 

I would understand if Canonical want a new cow to milk, but why are developers even agreeing to this? Are they out of their minds?? Do they actually want companies to steal their code? Or is this some reverse-uno move I don't see yet? I cannot fathom any FOSS project not using the AGPL anymore. It's like they're painting their faces with "here, take my stuff and don't contribute anything back, that's totally fine"

 

I have been looking for an email client on Linux after being tired of Gmail and Outlook web clients.

I had Thunderbird installed on my system and thought I'd give it a spin. I set up POP for my email accounts and it worked fantastic... For a total of 2 hours, after which I realised that searching in Thunderbird is simply not going to work for me. I need to search by attachment name and sometimes even by text inside attachment and unfortunately Thunderbird can't do that (I think I tried an extension too but it made the UI super clunky to the point that I couldn't even understand how to navigate it anymore).

Does Betterbird or any other email client fix this problem? I'm willing to try other options if they are FOSS.

Thanks

 

Hi, I'm running Debian with XFCE. I can't seem to bind the Windows key to the "Whisker Menu". I think I'm getting the name of the applet wrong, can someone tell me what the correct name is so I can create a new binding? Thanks

 

Hi,

I have realised that my understanding of DNS isn't very good, and that there are many new technologies being adopted by mainstream FOSS applications which augment DNS from how we traditionally know it (DNSCrypt, DANE etc).

I'm looking for a resource (blog, RSS feed) which talks about a lot about DNS and innovations happening in this space. If you have any recommendations, please let me know.

My interest lies mostly in DNS tech which is being adopted by FOSS server and client applications.
