Digging through my digital archives.. my attempt at 2000 to make MS Windows bearable 😂 and that about the last times I dual booted to Windows.. I understand soem of the Icons: - Internet Exploder - Netscape - mIrc - Acdsee - Real audio player but the other two?! G?!

Still a couple of weeks until vacation, at least I can make some vacation food.. home made piadina with stracciatella, bresaola and rocket

A new post on why I started up a new blog and some of the mechanics around it. I already covered some of that with bsky posts but figured I'd pull it together. Mostly wrote this for LinkedIn. joe.dev/posts/thinki...

Goes straight to next VN issue :)

FWIW, I had enough of the proton-bridge and compiled it for illumos. And guess what, apparently it works (it does not support Fido2, though). I can receive mail - check I can send mail - check From a MUA of my choice. I'm as happy as ever. github.com/tnorlin/prot... #illumos #homelab #proton

Almost furious. Never underestimate a grumpy teenager 😂

We had a great discussion and I’m excited the episode is being released! Check it out.

Kubernetes Kubernetes v1.36: ハル (Haru) was released Today and I've updated my port for illumos, FreeBSD and OpenBSD (with corresponding binaries). github.com/tnorlin/kube... #kubernetes #homelab #illumos #freebsd #openbsd

Now that I saw this table for sale in the marketplace, I cannot unthink of it as the perfect homelab desk Just think of it, there's 2 x 6U rack space www.thomann.se/intl/zaor_on...

Thursday be like kubectl -n kube-system rollout restart deployment coredns error: failed to patch: etcdserver: mvcc: database space exceeded

Kubecon is over and I'm up in the air. I've had so much fun and it's really an energy boost to meet with y'all! But there's so many I wanted to see, but ran out of time (between visiting booths, attending talks and socializing). I look forward to Barcelona #kubecon

Great bunch of folks that volunteered their time

The theme for day 2 of keynotes. Digital sovereignty (and AI). It feels like a well selected subject due to the currently ongoing events around the world

At the keynotes. I hope Nvidia's open source movement eventually will benefit also individual end users. I.e. consumer GPU's

tnorlin.se/posts/2026-0... I've been revisiting FreeBSD and I find it exciting. It's gonna be a learning experience for me. #freebsd #homelab #illumos #omnios

Some of the very best talks (and I'm certain that the atmosphere is better there) seem to happen at Cloud Native Rejekts so I really hope to make it there!

Here we go again...

I love it when a plan comes together. Some years ago I sketched on how I would automatically join bare metal nodes to my k8s cluster with PXE and auto issued certificates. Today I wanted to add a node and I just had to update versions and it went well. #kubernetes #homelab youtu.be/Jr4AWyzDJPg

On this week's Oxide and Friends, @booch.com joined @bcantrill.bsky.social and me to talk about the past, present, and future of software engineering. From hand-made computers and the software crisis of the late '60s to LLMs (of course) we covered a lot... with--as always--many dated references!

so apparently it's not just RAM that got horribly expensive... September 2021, I bought a the 1.92T Samsung PM9A3 for 4.363 SEK ($480 USD)... a price I thought were extremely expensive back then. Current price: 13.500 SEK ($1500 USD) and it's not just this fairly old model - all flash gone pricy

Up until now I've used Zotero (and sometimes SingleFile) as my personal archive for pages, but it is very heavy and I seldom read later. Today I deployed Readeck in my k8s and to a CNPG instance - for sure this will be my new way to bookmark stuff! Really handy

The @rejekts.io org team are full steam ahead working hard to make Amsterdam happen but they're in need of YOUR help! If you, or you know someone, can help make the event a success by sponsoring please take a look at the prospectus and get in touch! 💙 ✨ cloud-native.rejekts.io/Rejekts_Spon...

I was laid off last week. I'm excited to start a new chapter where I can put my knowledge and dedication to work. I believe every chapter closes to make room for something more rewarding. I'm keen to discover the next opportunity. Learn more: www.linkedin.com/pos... #OpenToWork

Started off 2026 with some sourdough bread, fresh from the oven

Happy New Year! Gott Nytt År!

Kubernetes (ha ha, I first wrote Libernete^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H until I looked at the screen. Anyhow, Timbernetes (v1.35.0 of Kubernetes) was released yesterday and I've updated my port for illumos, FreeBSD and OpenBSD... #kubernetes #homelab #illumos #freebsd #openbsd github.com/tnorlin/kube...
