Let's not forget the unmentioned income thanks to gathering all that user data.

The real value of Youtube (and social medias in general) is not the raw revenue they generate.

It's being able to be able to predict what will trend in advance to sell ads to anyone, anywhere. Which is proven by their 200+ billions in revenue from ads from all services.

It's extremely likely that in an alternate universe where Google doesn't own YouTube, their profit today is lower than what they currently have.

But like you said, poor YouTube is not making money explicitly on its own so they'll use it to justify any cost increase attempt when they already know what the real money maker is.

For development, I have a single image per project tagged "dev" running locally in WSL that I overwrite over and over again.

For real builds, I use pipelines on my Azure DevOps server to build the image on an agent using a remote buildkit container and push it in my internal repository. All 3 components hosted in the same kubernetes cluster.

They could implement restrictions to block VPN traffic. But that would be repealed as fast as it came when these very congressmen would phone angrily their district on why they can work from their million dollar home anymore.

Support: Sorry VPNs are now blocked and you cannot work remotely without them

Congressman: Who are the idiots that voted for these laws

Support: Well, you and your friends

 

Hello everyone,

Recently I have returned to managing a kubernetes cluster in my homelab with Ansible on RHEL distros. Since I haven't touched to the installation stages since quite a long time I started to look for tutorials from the base installation to the cni configuration, MetalLB setup and metrics server installation.

In every single tutorial, I have seen major issues that made me pull my hair:

  • First and the worst, most tutorials obviously have the firewall disabled or tells you to deactivate it. Just. No. I know deactivating it makes everything much easier and many issues disappear as soon as you run a systemctl stop firewalld. But if you want to teach correcty, you wouldn't recommend something that would make you fired on the spot.

  • CNI installations are straight forward but miss important information for troubleshooting. Stuff like putting flannel interfaces in the internal zone or adding some direct forwarding rules to firewalld can be necessary but again, everyone and their mothers have their firewall off so they never talk about it.

  • In MetalLB, the configMap used by the speakers is not created automatically by the official manifest. Missing it is impossible as the speaker straight up do not start and the logs are straightforward. Yet I have never seen one tutorial mention it.

  • Again in metalLB, if the controller is on a worker node, webhooks are not accessible and you cannot configure the load balancer. It's rare-ish and easy to fix but again, never seen any mention of that

  • While Flannel, MetalLB, Weave, ... clearly state which ports you need to open for their solutions, tutorials never do (firewall? Someone?)

  • The metrics server has some ... Particularities (like the need to modify the startup arguments or the dnsPolicy). Those are easily found in the github issues due to how frequent they're but I can never seem to find a tutorial mentionning those extra configuration to do.

  • Various basic stuff like a worker node + a cni being needed for coreDNS and the master node to become ready. Or how to verify your deployment of ingress/cni/metalLB is working correctly. If you are familiar with Kubernetes, it's not too hard to find the solution to those but when most of your audience, it should be explicit to at least share a random nginx manifest to test if everything is good.

This is mainly a rant because it is crazy to see that a tutorial that is supposed to explain the documentation but faster is utterly useless because of course, you won't get any forwarding issues between interfaces if your device is an open bar.

And that most of them are like this.

So to everyone who also tried to follow tutorials for the set up of their clusterw what was your experience with them? Were they also useless or did you find a gem that didn't simply copy pasted the documentation and took screenshots of an working cluster setup without trying their guide?

It's fine. He just exchanged trademarks with Egosoft https://twitter.com/EGOSOFT/status/1683477783584858115 so he is in the clear 👍

If you are not using any HA feature and only put servers into the same cluster for ease of management.

You could use the same command but with a value of 1.

The reason quorum exist is to prevent any server to arbitrarily failover VMs when it believes the other node(s) is down and create a split brain situation.

But if that risk does not exist to begin with, so do the quorum.

How is that a rip off? You pay 20€ once and get the ability to sideload any UWP app and develop for the console.

Compare it to both Nintendo and Sony where:

  • You have to pay multiple times the price of the console for the dev kit
  • You don't own said dev kit
  • Their SDKs are not publicly accessible
  • You have to sign multiple NDAs on top of all those issues
  • Assuming you have no problem with all this, you can be rejected as a developer for any reason

Considering how locked consoles were and still are (Except for the PS3 "other OS") period. Being able to get a decent current gen console, that doubles as an emulator, with development capabilities for an additional 20 euros is a gift, not a rip-off.

Thank you for the information I'll definitely check that out.

The issue is that it could still be abused against small instances.

For example, I had a bit less than 10 bots trying to signup to my instance today (I had registration with approval on) and those account are reported as instance users even though I refused their registration.

So even if you don't allow spam accounts to get into your instance, you can easily get blacklisted from that list because creating a few dozen thousands account registration requests isn't that hard even against an instance protected by captcha.

Probably the best one I have found so far.

By the way, do you have any plan to expose an API or daily extract of the data you have?

While those websites are useful for manual searches, I think it would benefit the feddiverse much more if there was a way to integrate all those lists into an app. At least without resorting to web scrapping.
