 @hexa:lossy.network | Mic92: would you recommend k3s for running a handful containers that should be host independent? mostly web stuff (static pages, wordpress, dokuwiki, younameit) | 00:19:08 |
| @hexa:lossy.network | and basically something gitlab can deliver to | 00:19:25 |
 shanesveller | Host independent would probably imply a true multihost Kube distribution, no? Not that you can't necessarily get there with k3s | 01:13:19 |
| shanesveller | (Comparing with things like Kubeadm) | 01:13:39 |
 @mic92:nixos.dev | hexa: it can surely do that and is easier to maintain than k8s because it has less moving parts. Still I would only use if you plan for a larger team with a bigger amount of servers. It's useful i.e if you want developers to push application independent of their admins. | 02:34:56 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | K3s runs in a multihost setup without any issues. If you want to go multi master you have to an external etcd rather than then internal database. | 02:39:37 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | On nixos I also ended up disableing the nixos firewall. I could not make it compatible with the kubernetes firewall. Their rules sets and natting is insane complex. | 02:42:44 |

|  @blaggacao:matrix.org changed their display name from David Arnold to David Arnold (blaggacao). | 17:57:39 |
| @blaggacao:matrix.org removed their profile picture. | 17:57:56 |
| @blaggacao:matrix.org set a profile picture. | 17:58:22 |

| @mic92:nixos.dev | If you need a simple, hackable hypervisor for docker etc, I can also recommend https://github.com/gotoz/runq | 12:02:20 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | It's initrd is written mostly in go. | 12:03:37 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | I am currently using it to prototype an experiment. | 12:04:21 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | I like the concept of initrd's written in system programming languages. I would like to see this more in VM-based images. | 12:45:13 |
 andi- | How far is vanilla systemd from that? What supporting files do we need besides the systemd binary and a libaries? Shouldn't it be able to do most/all of this in an almost empty initrd? | 12:46:32 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | No idea maybe archlinux's mkinitcpio gives an idea what is missing from systemd. | 12:48:32 |
 Arian | See man bootup | 13:46:40 |
| Arian | Yeh systemd initrd 'just works' | 13:47:23 |

 @grahamc:nixos.org | rfr: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/134981 | 18:16:58 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | would it be reasonable to make this ZFS AMI I'm building only compatible with EC2's Nitro based instances? | 19:17:12 |
| @grahamc:nixos.org | if so, I can make it always use EFI, and simplify the disk creation | 19:17:22 |
| 21 Aug 2021 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | Is this in addition to the current AMI? I miss the context a bit. | 09:33:34 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | This is the context: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/106574 | 09:35:17 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | I guess since a new image it should be fine if it does not support all legacy features. | 09:36:38 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | If someone needs bios it can be still added. | 09:36:47 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | Looks interesting: https://github.com/u-root/u-root | 11:34:16 |
| andi- | That was the project that shipped a go compiler in the initrd + source code? | 11:36:05 |
| andi- | and custom Go compatible shell? | 11:36:11 |
| @mic92:nixos.dev | did it? | 11:37:12 |
