Why do you think Monit is weird?

But oh yes, cool project :)

Bloat free is a single compiled binary that runs anywhere!!

TCB13 , 1 year ago to linux in Flatpak vs Snap vs Native Packages

Flatpak is fast, lightweight actual open-source and provides security via isolation. Snap is the usual BS Canonical tries to get people to use, has a ton of bloat.

Personally I’ve had zero issues with Flatpak under Debian for desktop usage. It integrates nicely with the GNOME Software “store” and allows you to get the latest and best of everything you might need without polluting your system. Flatpak solves the usual complaints about Debian only having “old” software - allows you to run the latest and greatest while keeping a clean and rock solid Debian system underneath.

“Simple, clean, bloat-free” – proceeds do use Docker lol.

TCB13 OP , 1 year ago to linux in Debian 12: How to setup disk encryption with TPM2

Thank you for the clarification.

TCB13 OP , 1 year ago to linux in Debian 12: How to setup disk encryption with TPM2

Yes, there are but they mostly assume the use of the SHIM. That was the reason why I posted this.

The more pcr you add, the higher likelihood you need to re-enroll after updates

So that means if I run upgrades and forget to re-enroll I’ll get a broken system that I won’t be able to boot to and fix it?

TCB13 OP , 1 year ago to linux in Debian 12: How to setup disk encryption with TPM2

From what I can understand Debian uses a generic shim that is signed with Microsoft’s keys and then it delegates the rest to the system. Apparently this is a fast way to get secure boot to work but “SHIM only checks signatures of the boot loader and kernel, but not the GRUB config file or initramfs, which opens your machine to attacks”. This is why I was looking for a more detailed guide from someone who actually understands this from start to end.

Most but not all :) Thanks.

TCB13 , 1 year ago to linux in Chinese distro (OpenKylin) made to provide independence from western technologies releses its first stable version

At least, unlike GNOME, they got the font rendering, the spacing across icons and the desktop icons right. lol

One more version without the obvious UPnP. At this point I think they’re not implementing UPnP in order to somehow profit from the lack of it in the future. Who on their right minds wants all traffic going over a server when in most cases you can simply use UPnP? This makes no sense.

TCB13 , 1 year ago to linux in LXD is now under Canonical

I also do playbooks to deploy stuff some stuff with LXD, but my end users only like Docker so, I kind of setup the infrastructure that allows them to deploy Docker on top of LXD containers that are deployed using Ansible.

TCB13 , 1 year ago to linux in LXD is now under Canonical

Not a correction, it has its uses :) I would never deploy a web app and its API, database etc. using LXD, makes no sense, k8s is way better for that.
