Always follow Kubernetes setup step carefully!
Forwarding IPv4 and letting iptables see bridged traffic is not optional; even if it looks like it.
Skipping that crucial step that takes a few minutes eventually led to wasting over 3 hours troubleshooting a issue that, apparently, nobody has ever solved on the Internet before. Naturally, because nobody should ever need to.
Last month I took a look at checking deployments before upgrading kubeadm clusters and found results mostly reassuring.
As a practice run to upgrade more complex setups, lets upgrade the cluster running on the desktop PC, which is only running a Plex Media Server (which recently become unresponsive) and the PhotoPrism® photo album (which never worked well enough to be critical to me).
It has been nearly two years since installing Ubuntu Studio 22.04 on Computer, for a young artist and so it is time to upgrade it to the next LTS version: Ubuntu Studio 24.04.
PhotoPrism® is an AI-Powered Photos App for the Decentralized Web I heard some good comments about. I tried it on my other Kubernetes cluster and here are impressions so far.
I've been meaning to upgrade Kubernetes ever since Kubernetes Certificate Expired about a year after setting up the Kubernetes cluster in lexicon.
Homebox is the inventory and organization system built for the Home User which sounds exactly like what I want, to keep track of where things go.
A big chunk of my time is spent at the computer, also during my downtime, and there is no clear separation between study, chores, entertainment, etc. Work happens at other computers, where time flies by sometimes at ridiculous speeds. I often find myself wondering where did my day/week go?
For some time I've been using a badly-cobbled-together solution with Bash scripts doing a few basic operations, all the time:
The results have been barely enough to keep track of where my weeks go, which has already been a relief; when someone (often me) asks "why so little progress on X?", I can check the spreadsheet and answer with numbers: because this week, out of 40 hours, ...
At home, however, the results have been very underwhelming. This is due to completely different behaviour patterns, which is where I hope ActivityWatch will help.
The young artist wanted to try Utau, which as of May 24 was on version v0.4.19のインストーラー修正版.
After weeks of using Audiobookshelf to listen to audiobooks daily, it dawned on me that the PDF reader was probably not the best I could be using.
Then is also dawned on me that Audible is not my only source of eBooks; I have a few from HumbleBundle deals and a few indipendent authors who sell PDF files directly, as well as a small collection of appliance manuals and electronics datasheets. All these files have been scattered all over the place, never having a common home where they could all be conveniently navigated and read.
Until now. Enter... Komga.
Keep track of expenses and stuff is hard, thankless work.
Over the years I've done it, with varying degrees of success, using a variety of solutions including my first ever LAMP project, right after learning PHP and MySQL, and once my bank's own built-in solutions until they unceremonously took it away with no notice.
After this last disappointment, I decided to go the self-hosted way taking inspiration from the list of Money, Budgeting & Management solutions by Awesome-Selfhosted. Based on comments in several forums, I decided to first try with Firefly III.
