Yes, Betterfox all the way in + few custom settings.

I am still in position where I need to put some small pipeline to automatically download latest + merge my stuff and deploy, but even if it's manual every month or two it's not too bad.

I have experienced this as well. However, I wasn't sure where I should report it. Warranty? Bug?

I'm fairly new to the Apple ecosystem, so it's quite confusing. I've tried raising an issue with warranty, but I could absolutely not find a place to do it(I had a few tries, installed some app, but I wasn't able to create anything that wouldn't be visited in the shop, just a support request)

I love immich!

This happens every time. Company does good thing. “But, why didn’t they do 2X good thing?!”

Working for a F500 company, I have tried to use budget surplus to reward open source projects we use. Management looked at me like I had grown an additional head.

> Management looked at me like I had grown an additional head.

this is my experience, too. they'll gladly take, take, take, take, take, and take some more, but when it comes time to give just a little bit, they balk.

Same for normal people, for example with any paid internet service. They watch 2 hours of youtube every day, but to pay a pittance for YouTube Premium? Unimaginable, how dare they ask for anything for the service. In every thread where it comes up, people act like it's pulling teeth. And also, microtransactions work because of the same reason. People's relationship with paying for things is complicated.

"We've never heard of that happening, so no."

I don't think Proxmox is a huge company making lots of money though either... I've used it for free for years. I imagine most people use it for free. I'm sure there are companies paying for it, but I don't think it's some monster money maker?

I bet that they grew a lot with VMWare/Broadcom changes, even the somewhat paid subscriptions. But they are not yet one of the (commercial/enterprise) big names. I suppose that this donation is part of their "now that I have a positive budget, what I do with it?" plan, and finance growing up both as company/support as in adding features.

They are based in Austria, my assumption has been that most of their business/enterprise customers are in the EU.

Resellers exists in most parts of the world.

Maybe, but it’s also 100% higher than what 99% of companies built on open source software give back.

I was thinking about matching it since I'm retired and my early and mid career was built on perl but I also feel a bit unqualified as I'm not really a great programmer or really understand deep problems like language design and compilers/interpreters.

The problem with this world is that 80% of people think they are above average and from the remaining 20% most are above average and thinking they are below average (~bastardized quote from some famous guy)

I'm almost willing to bet that you did more than good enough work and if you still want to become a (n even) great(er) programmer I'm sure there's quite a few OSS projects you could contribute to as well if you wanted to :))

Re:matching it you could also spread it amongst a couple of projects.

Anyway have a great day

Proxmox is based on perl? Can you expand on that? Web front end, vm automation…?

Proxmox is written in perl, among other things like HTML and JS, on top of the other free software that they are using like QEMU. They also use Rust at places.

This is their repo: https://git.proxmox.com/?p=pve-manager.git;a=tree

But they also publish their work for free!

I'm with you on it. KDE 3(Trinity) was the best.

So you just „released” it, I can’t see anything except „request access”.

Stern is the best!

I was there about 12 years ago, and in all honesty, I wasn't impressed.

The air pollution was absolutely horrific, for whole I was there I wasn't able to see the sun at all due to air or lack of it.

"Green" trees were just... grey, covered with all the dust.

And good luck if you want to grab a taxi and you have long hair :)

The food was great, though.

12 years is an eternity in China. I went in 2008-2010 and it was completely unrecognizable compared to 2018. I imagine 2025 is completely different too

Agree, pretty much like everywhere, however what I can see from the pictures the air pollution is still there and it looks horrific.

> And good luck if you want to grab a taxi and you have long hair

Please explain

Pretty much when I tried to grab a taxi, and it was pretty much every day two times, I could see Taxi were free(no people inside, and now I can't remember if I was the light on or off, but meaning they're just free to take you) no one would stop for about 10 minutes. Sometimes 1 passed and I was able to get it, but usually it was 5-7 cars passing me by.... Someone mentioned people were not accustomed to males with long hair.

The vast majority of Chinese people use Didi or other Apps to call taxis. Those vacant taxis you notice are likely en route to collect their pre-booked passengers. Nowadays, hardly anyone flags down taxis on the roadside anymore - even Chinese citizens find it challenging to get a cab this way. Admittedly, this situation creates difficulties for elderly individuals unfamiliar with smartphones, who mostly depend on family or friends to arrange transportation for them.

That was 2012/2013, Didi wasn’t there at the time.

Totally. Plus it's misguiding readers with different functionality and use cases.

For example "Persistent Storage: StatefulSets provide persistent storage to their pods through Kubernetes PersistentVolumes".

The thing is that STS doesn't do that. That's actually in POD definition.

Agree. Its more confusion. PVC / PV are native to k8s not something part of statefulsets. In fact you _probably_ only need to use Statefulsets for databases. Which is probably going to be abstracted away with Operators.

It's more about roll forward/backward and services with a master+replica or leader election. That PVCs are common in stateful sets is more a symptom than the cause

Yea for sure. Thats why I dropped the term database because thats the exact scenario ( master / replica ) where pod consistency naming,dns, network etc is important for StatefulSet.

I had no idea... probably shows I haven't hit an advanced enough use case.

> why isn't a statefulset just a deployment/pod with PVC mounted?

* StatefulSets provide predictable pod names and hostnames (pod-0, pod-1)

* StatefulSets handle pods sequentially (0→1→2), ensuring proper cluster initialization.

* StatefulSets maintain a consistent pod-to-PVC mapping even after pod rescheduling.

* StatefulSets delete pods in reverse order,

You can look at the structure in TFA to see this. The only discussion of the volume mounting is in the pod template, not the Stateful Set itself.

You can map a PVC back to a pod without statefulset. You just need to create the PV and PVC and map it to a deployment.

"Come on!"

First one will show how to get it :D

… which is not accessible to as many users as the process list is.

And can often be passed in bash via a filehandle, without a file.
