This is the first time I read about -newermt and it's pretty cool, the following command will remove all the files older than Jan 1st, 2026: find . !

This two commands are handy to quickly valide that a PullSecret secret is correct: kubectl get secret my-secret -o jsonpath='{.data.\.dockerconfigjson}' | base64 --decode > ~/tmp/auth.json podman pull --authfile ~/tmp/auth.json quay.io/some/image

This is about development of the Ansible extension for VSCode.

You already use Github with the gh command and want to enable the MCP service in Claude Code.

I just published Virt-Lightning 2.5.0.

I've been maintaining bsd-cloud-image.org since 2019.

Virt-Lightning is my pet-project to quickly start Cloud VMs on a Libvirt Hypervisor and these are some notes I took to run it on Fedora CoreOS.

My BlueHost subscription was about to expire, and one of my new year resolutions is to reduce the number of subscriptions I'm paying for.

My local home server runs on CoreOS and today I went through the installation of Red Hat Code Ready Container, aka CRC.

I'm in the process to upgrade an existing Btrfs multi-disk filesystem (/var/mnt/datapool) and I made a mistake...

Running Llama.cpp with the Vulkan backends of my AMD and Intel graphic GPUs ends up being straightfoward and surprisingly fast.

To get Numpy to build on RHEL9, you need to install nvcc and export CUDA_HOME, e.g: $ sudo dnf install -y rpm -ql cuda-nvcc-13-0 $ sudo ln -s /usr/local/cuda-13.0 /usr/local/cuda $ pip install numpy

I recently faced the situation where my registry was down and after a bit of digging, I ended up with this solution.

After a bit of trial error, this is how you can allow requests to connect to a specific host, despite a broken certificate: import requests import requests.adapters import ssl import urllib3 from urllib3.util import create_urllib3_context class AllowBrok…

Get a flat list of all the pods, except those coming from openshift namespaces $ oc -o json get pods -A --sort-by=.status.startTime |jq '.items[].metadata|select(.namespace | startswith("openshift") | not)|pick(.name, .namespace, .creationTimestamp)' and…

First, I've prepared a Lora with Axolotl: axolotl train examples/llama-3/lora-1b.yml At the end of the process, I've a new directory called outputs/lora-out.

I use Fedora Silverblue and my VSCode runs inside a container.

bsd-cloud-image.org aims to simplify the use of BSD operating systems in a cloud environment.

Create a new service entry: firewall-cmd --permanent --new-service=ollama Associate the right port with new service: firewall-cmd --permanent --service=ollama --add-port=11434/tcp Restart the firewalld, so it's aware of the new service: firewall-cmd --r…

It's surprisingly easy to build a router from a Fedora 40 box.

Quick rant.

Note for myself, this is how you can download a copy of a KeyPair private key: aws --region ca-central-1 ssm get-parameter --name /ec2/keypair/key-015b012fb114efc83 --with-decryption --query Parameter.Value --output text

I've been doing backups for my family for years now.

I've been using a slightly tweaked GNOME 3 for a while now.

I just pushed 2 new images on BSD-Cloud-Image.org: OpenBSD 7.2 DragonFlyBSD 6.2.2

I recently faced this error when trying to build an Elixir project. == Compilation error in file lib/swoosh/adapters/xml/helpers.ex == ** (ArgumentError) lib file xmerl/include/xmerl.hrl could not be found (elixir 1.13.4) lib/record/extractor.ex:41: R…

Release 2.2.0 of Virt-Lightning, a lightweight CLI for libvirt which can serve as an alternative to Vagrant.

Ansible-Navigator is a new terminal base UI for Ansible.

It's surprisingly tricky to connect to a ZooKeeper cluster over TLS/SSL using the zkCli.sh command.

My team at Ansible uses Zuul CI to develop and release our collections.

TASK [helm : Copy test chart] ************************************************** fatal: [localhost]: FAILED!

The community.okd collection depends on kubernetes.core.

So, I've got an old phone with 35GB of pictures that I want to save.

Python 3 provides a new fancy library to manage pretty much all the path-related operations.

I work on a large number of collections and in order to test them properly, I have to switch between the Python versions and the associated PyPI dependencies.

I've pushed some new images on https://bsd-cloud-image.org/: OpenBSD 6.9, bsd.rd is now a compressed file FreeBSD 13.0: boot1.efifat does not exist anymore DragonFly BSD 6.0.0, I've refreshed my Cloud-Init PR.

By default, the firewall will prevent connection to your 0ad server.

I've just got a Razer Core X that I use with a Radeon graphics card.

Yesterday morning I got frustrated by a really slow download speed of some files.

The Ansible community uses Github to develop ansible-core and most of the Ansible Collections.

As briefly explained in CI of the Ansible modules for VMware: a retrospective, the Ansible CI uses OpenStack to spawn ephemeral vSphere labs.

The community.kubernetes collection accepts an api_key parameter that may sounds a bit confusing.

Until recently, I was not really paying attention to the version of Python I was using with Ansible, as long as it was Python 3.

update: minishift is basically dead and won't support OpenShift 4.

Introduction Most of the content of the vmware.vmware_rest collection is auto-generated.

vmware.vmware_rest (https://galaxy.ansible.com/vmware/vmware_rest) is a new Ansible Collection for VMware.

Since January 2020, every new Ansible VMware pull request is tested by the CI against a real VMware lab.

Introduction This post compares the start-up duration of the most popular cloud images.

Docker often leaves behind files when I remove images with rmi. systemctl stop docker.service systemctl stop docker.socket rm -rf /var/lib/docker/ btrfs subvolume list /var/lib/docker|awk '/ID/ {print "/"$9}'|xargs btrfs sub delete
