The only mayor candidate capable of standing up to Trump

I think having a progress bar for project 2025 is a bit disingenuous. There has a been a ton of damage to NIH, but that site says nothing has happened to NIH yet.

Ew, Theo Von

I would probably remove python 2 support, it was end of life when the project was started.

I dont think Immich supports turning a normal account into an sso account, though it may be possible with manual database editing.

EU banks are working on it

There’s some sort of SEPA instant payments that come into effect this fall, I think, too.

Kubernetes is great for single nodes! It definitely is more advanced than docker compose, but it’s actually not hard at all if you read through the documentation. It definitely makes running containers easier in the long run.

Here is my git repo for my big Kubernetes cluster at home: https://codeberg.org/jlh/h5b/src/branch/main/argo/custom_applications

It started out as just a NFS server and a Kubernetes server running on Proxmox in 2021.

I’m definitely a big outlier, I was always pretty bad at foreign languages in school, and I was in a very english-heavy daily environment. I have social anxiety too so I just switch to English whenever I’m worried I’ll say something wrong.

I studied Swedish in an international gymnasium and then barely passed Svenska som andra språk III in Komvux during the first 3 years I lived in Sweden and I would say I was at a B1 level after that. I went to English-language university and worked in IT afterwards so I wasn’t speaking Swedish on a daily basis, just some jobs where we would have the occasional Swedish meeting or I would send some emails in Swedish. After 10 years though I got a Swedish-language government IT job and my Swedish has improved a ton in just a few months. Nowadays after 11 years I’m definitely a C1 or C2. I might trip up and sound foreign on some complex topics, and I definitely still have an American accent, but I basically speak like a native. But yeah, it is very rare to not be able to speak English with someone on the street, but of course, it is important to learn Swedish to make social environments, paperwork, and work easier.

I would say Swedish is probably the easiest foreign language to learn as an English speaker. The sounds are quite straightforward or can be approximated, the grammar is super simplified and nearly identical to English, and most of the vocabulary are cognates with English. A lot of words can be verbified or adjectified so the vocabulary comes quick. Both Swedish and English are germanic languages with tons of French loan words so the overlap is huge.

It’s not going to make a meaningful difference in your threat model and it will cause a lot of hassle for extra configuration and broken docker images, so I wouldn’t bother.

There is some nice tooling for transparent user name spaces coming down the pipeline in Kubernetes which will be a nice 0-effort security upgrade, but if you don’t have the tooling, I would say it’s not worth it.

SSDs are getting crazy cheap.

If you need 10tb of storage, you could get 2x used 10tb hdds in raid 1 for $200, but 6x used 2tb nvme in raid 5 is only $600 and 100x faster. Both take up the same amount of space.

SMR is designed for enterprise raid that is SMR-aware.

I’m not aware of any open-source zoned storage raid but I think Ceph is planning to add support next month.

Hetzner Storage box is $20/month for 10tb.

Can confirm, took me way too long to become fluent in Swedish because I just talked English with everyone 😅

I definitely recommend practicing the language though, it’s very important for social interactions, official stuff, and many careers.

Välkommen!

1. Yes.
2. Yes, and if you want custom configuration, you can include your configuration in-line in the same file that installs the http server and sets up systemd for it. Or you can even write your own module that drops configuration files in the same file.
3. Home-manager modules are modules that run stuff exclusively in ~, doing things like configuring browsers or dotfiles. As opposed to NixOS modules which configure system-level daemons.

Ah cool, I’ll check it out.

The home manager documentation bothers me a lot

Probably not that hard to build a simple flask frontend around it.

Automatically processing files in an S3/WebDAV directory would also be useful.

There is also a k3s option for Nixos, which removes the security and side-affect risks of running a random bash script installer.

Definitely so in the EU
