  • Love to hear things like that! When I first got licensed the solar cycle was utter trash. We’re past the peak now, but band conditions are still pretty good generally. A few watts and a wire will still get you somewhere with CW and some other forward error corrected modes (like FT8). I have a lot of fun with the digital stuff like AREDN, but it’s definitely a different ball game and the old school SSB-based radio still has its place in my heart.















  • Nagios is a premium offering. They have some open source components, but the software model is absolutely not built around the spirit of GPL.

    Zabbix is the obvious alternative in my mind, and it is AGPLv3, so absolutely in the same spirit as the LibreNMS license. It’s a slightly different tool though, and less network-specific. Having used both, I prefer LibreNMS for specifically network monitoring, it’s laid out to cater more to an ISP-type entity running it, and I like that. Zabbix still gets my wholehearted stamp of approval though.




  • I absolutely have and used it for a while before landing on opensuse microos primarily. I absolutely see the benefit and enjoyed the git-centric nature, keeping flakes in repos with a flavor for each machine. What I didn’t enjoy, however, was the seemingly poor documentation. Quite frankly too, the drama surrounding the community doesn’t inspire confidence either. I decided I ought to try out guix but haven’t gotten to it yet. I do actually still have one nixos VM that hosts some services for me and is built entirely on the concept of the impermanence flake. That was pretty cool.





  • That’s not how that works. network_mode: host shares the network namespace with the container host, so it doesn’t do any NAT, it only exists on the host’s IP. It would be akin to running a natively installed app, rather than in a container. macvlan networking is what gives a container its own IP on the logical network, without the layer of NAT that the default bridge mode networking that docker typically does.
