How to make an entire clickable without presenting the entire content of the card as the link title. These videos are great, I’ve ran into these types of problems so many times, and definitely did not know about things like isolate to keep the z-index scoped to one element. isolate - scope z-index inside this element so that it does not leak out. [.relative [.absolute, inset-0, z-10]] - the inset zero is a modern shorthand for zeroing all sides, top-0, right-0, bottom-0, left-0.
This is an absolute banger of a review by prime and Dylan Beetle. I love the similar takes with different perspectives, would really like to see them podcast together, but this one way style interview does really well to cover a lot of issues in open source, rug pulls, version pinning, thankless maintainers, what its like to open source from a large company.
Perils of Self-Hosting We speak to Kevin and Patricia from Traefik, discuss Alex's recent ZFS snafu and we wonder if the new Chromecasts can match up to the Nvidia Shield. Self-Hosted · selfhosted.show Interesting takes on Diun here. I agree that I like to be in control of updates and pinning not to latest. both seemed like they weren’t going to run it because they can look up the latest version. Maybe I need to be less aggressive on keeping things up to date and its a me problem. I just got diun setup and hooked into ntfy, and I kinda like the automated checklist of new images that I can review and update. To be a bit more clear, having control over changes coming in from others, even if I dont care to see the changelog, it is nice to roll out an update, have it in your git history, watch it deploy and work like before, if not roll back and read the changelog. For internal applications I’m down for automated releases like argo image updater give you, this thing has already gone through review, launch the damn thing at least to a dev space.
Spring 2025: Self-Hosted Update The one where things plod along. dbushell.com · dbushell.com Davids blogs always have so many links that send me down new rabbit holes. Interesting that his experience with smart home is turning away, I’ve been somewhat interested for awhile, but never fully pulled the trigger on buying things. I really hope tailscale enshitification does not take off, but really for me, I barely use it even as a homelabber. Idk why, but every other homelabber praises it so much and I just dont find myself using it.
Characters Xe Iaso xeiaso.net xeiaso, has the coolest characters on her blog. Definitely something I’d like to replicate. I really appreciate how each one has its own sprite sheet, and they have conversations with each other.
I want to go build these now, these are suspension setups I had no idea you could do in trailmakers.
GitHub - adrianlopezroche/fdupes: FDUPES is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files residing within specified directories. FDUPES is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files residing within specified directories. - adrianlopezroche/fdupes GitHub · github.com keeping this in my back pocket for now. I just moved a few TB’s of data in the homelab and I am expecting a lot of duplication to show up.
backup distrobox image
Today I’m upgrading my distrobox, but don’t want to end up in a situation where I can’t get anything done becauase I work out of my distrobox.
I’m really excited about fdupes, an amazing project by adrianlopezroche. It’s worth exploring! FDUPES is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files residing within specified directories.
Diun Receive notifications when a Docker image is updated on a Docker registry crazymax.dev Diun, looks like a very interesting tool to monitor for image updates, it does not make any change, it only makes notifications. This feels like an easy start to getting image updates started with low effort, keep git ops, but requires manual updates. I see this as a tool that would be a great start and pair well with automated image updaters to ensure they are working as expected.
Keel Kubernetes Operator to automate Helm, DaemonSet, StatefulSet & Deployment updates keel.sh Keel looks interesting, I might give it a try as a simple image updater. I’m unsure if it fits my gitops patterns though. I like to keep everything defined in git, I don’t like drift outside of that so Keel might not be the thing I want.
Changing k8s Storage Class - Migration Job
I’m setting up longhorn in my homelab, and I ran into an issue where I initially setup some pvcs under longhorn, and later realized that to get longhorn to snapshot and backup I needed to hand edit volumes after the fact or change storage class. I’m all in on gitops so option 1 was not an option. So changing storageclass it is. Now the issue is that you CANNOT mutate storageclass on a provisioned pvc, it is an immutable attribute. Migration Job This migration job will create a new pvc with the new storageclass and move the data from the old pvc to the new pvc. Existing Pods This migration job will not work if you have a pod using the old pvc. You will need to shutdown the pod and delete it. Apply the manifests and wait for the job to complete. Cleanup I had chatgpt create me a script to help me find what is using the pvc so that it can be deleted. I had still had cronjob pods completed, so I had to delete them first.
New Phone Day Apr 2 2025
backdated This represents the first sign in to this device. This will be my 3rd pixel 6 since 2021, One shattered screen and one blown battery. My first one was brand new, the first new phone i’ve had in years. That phone only proved to me that new flagship models make no difference to me, I had been running pixel 3 refurbished for many years before. No social media on this device Social media sucks become a bunch of people yelling “fake news” at each other and propping up their political candidate as the savior of everything. Elon bought twitter and fractured it. The communities are no longer here, and I have to dig through so much political posts to see post on tech and engineering its not worth it anymore. update from a year later and It’s been great, I check socials like once a week hoping to find better things, but it all seems like the same BS. The Crypto bros have moved on to AI so hard that I just cant stand watching most of them yap about something that they have no understand…
External Link youtube.com Damn he makes this easy. I did not know about. yes there is waste in requesting the entire thing every 5s, but damn that was easy to get life reload. I’ve only done very specific backend endpoints, built pages up from partials, made endpoints for partials. keeping this one in my back pocket. I’m just kind of amazed that he could do this all in html without touching the backend or js, typically things like this require one or the other. Yes js is running, but no other js library I’m aware of lets you do this.
