My #ipfire #router running on #raspberrypi was getting too hot and I was seeing bad performance so I migrated it to a #vm on my #proxmox #homelab #server. In between the migration I spent two days on #opnsense. While I liked the matured GUI, I hated the amount of configuration I had to do to set up pppoe or QoS and the performance was equal to the pi. The primary issue was pppoe dropping and not reconnecting automatically. I had ipfire running in two mins, very happy.

Containers vs VMs: Exploration of security concerns of containers and the practicality of using VMs to run untrusted code like AI agents

Wird es noch eine Zukunft für VMs und Hypervisor geben oder wird in Zukunft "alles" containerisiert sein? - Bzw. dienen die VMs irgendwann nur noch dazu die Containerumgebung/Kubernetes zu starten? Welche Dienste werden auch in Zukunft durch VMs bereitgestellt werden? Welcher Anteil wird mal sein?

Happy to share that #BoxyBSD remains up!

Recently I got asked about my @[email protected] project, which offers free VPS instances of vary #BSD based systems for learning and educational purposes and I'm happy to share that this projects remains available. Several things could finally be clarified to continue this service to make sure people can learn and practice on real #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD systems to #RUNBSD. Also, BoxyBSD starts moving over to #Sylve on #bhyve.

But not only that! We could also get some more new resources and locations to scale and this also brings up another new project for #free Linux #VPS instances at https://boxedtux.com (Fedi: @[email protected]) where people will be able to learn and practice on different #Linux based distributions (e.g., #Debian, #Ubuntu, #Rocky,...). BoxedTux utilizes #Proxmox clusters as a foundation.

Hope you like this small update... Over & out!
