Was happy to learn about Kube-OVN when writing about KubeVirt + LINSTOR. For my use case, solved issues that I was having when trying to live migrate VMs with Calico networking in Kubernetes. Blog article here: hubs.ly/Q03sqKXk0

I recently explored @storj S3 storage. Storj uses open source software and a global network of rented excess storage to provide S3-compatible object storage. LINSTOR can use S3-compatible storage as a DR backup shipping destination. Blog article here: hubs.ly/Q03nwdNs0

A colleague made a video that highlights storage migration between cloud and on-prem environments while incorporating some Minecraft playing!? hubs.ly/Q03dR8zs0 Has me wondering if there might be an angle for me to do some Ironsworn playing while working...

An article I've been working on is up for reading now on the LINBIT blog: hubs.ly/Q03dLx8l0 The article describes my adventures and challenges documenting the `--x-replicas-on-different` LINSTOR feature for the _LINSTOR User Guide_ for meeting HA and DR requirements.

Happy to discover a CLI tool for the Onyx Mira 13.3" e-ink monitor on GitHub: hubs.ly/Q035mPC80. Install the utility, create command aliases for turning the Mira on or off, then map those aliases to hot keys. Much easier than the clunky GUI from the monitor manufacturer.

PSA: The website hubs.ly/Q02Kc9Mq0 is a great resource for anyone who is working through email issues after receiving an undelivered message notification related to authentication: #SPF, #DKIM, or #DMARC. RFCs 6376, 7208, and 7489 are also relevant for reference.

A blog post I wrote that compares four prominent #opensource cloud/virtualization management platforms is up on the LINBIT blog: hubs.ly/Q02Kc8K20 It's great to have a few robust #OSS platform options and @linbit software for HA, DR, and SDS can integrate with all of them!

Wow! Can't believe I haven't found `aiksaurus` before, a cross-platform, open source thesaurus. I'm already on the CLI. Much faster to type in a word look up than use a web browser or opening my physical copy.

At #RHSummit, RT was challenged to give a 27-second elevator pitch on LINBIT. See how he did here 👀

If you're looking for an #OpenSource alternative after the Broadcom #VMware acquisition, don't miss this post 👀 We explore some of the best solutions that integrate with LINBIT 👇 ✔️ Apache @CloudStack ✔️ @opennebula ✔️ Proxmox VE ✔️ XCP-ng by @vatesfr bit.ly/3WmEnO7

I enjoyed writing about the DRBDmon #OSS utility on the LINBIT blog. Reminds me of one of my favorite utilities, GNU Midnight Commander. You can use DRBDmon to monitor and work with DRBD resources. Very powerful. bit.ly/3UTYm5X bit.ly/4dmeWSZ #TUI #CLI

Need to change the cursor size in a GTK 3.0 application on an E Ink monitor? Probably not, but just in case, I wrote this up: bit.ly/446uB4t #eink #vim

Stumbled across the @RedHat modular #documentation project (bit.ly/43PaUhq). Some really good advice and solid-sounding methodologies. Excited to try to apply some of the modular documentation strategies to my own documentation writing, building, and maintenance.

Tired of unhelpful banal concluding remarks in #ai chat responses to your technical questions? Try adding this #aiprompt to your questions: "Please answer the following question with a direct and concise answer, and without making general observations or commentary:"

I use the #Firefox bookmarks toolbar often and I try to use my keyboard whenever I can, rather than my mouse. As a #writer, my fingers feel closer to words that way. In Firefox: Ctrl+L brings kbd focus to the address bar, then 3 Tab key hits bring focus to the bookmarks toolbar!

Trying to find an excuse to have a #Kubernetes documentation example that uses a node named `bleu`, so I can show `kubectl cordon bleu`.

Still using the LINSTOR (or Piraeus) Operator v1 to facilitate persistent storage in #Kubernetes? You can now upgrade to Operator v2! Operator v2 offers improved convenience and flexibility for your #k8s deployments. bit.ly/3HF8Cay bit.ly/4byF6RN

A blog post that I wrote about @YellowbrickData, and their contributions to @linbit open source code is out now. Without giving too much away, this is a feel-good story with open source in a leading role. bit.ly/42by1SP

Topics for our upcoming community meeting on 18 January, 2024 at 11:00am PST (UTC-8) are @CloudStack updates, Storage Pool Mixing, Restoring Quorum, and LINBIT Operator v2 for #Kubernetes. Join on Zoom: bit.ly/3S2h2xk. Or YouTube: bit.ly/3RThiyO

A "meatware" trick that still works well to catch errors and mistakes with your #technicalwriting is to read your writing aloud. Another trick that you can use is to read your writing backwards, that is, read the last sentence, then read the penultimate sentence, and so on.
