I use concepts of games I like. Right now Alan Wake and Pacific Drive are the two of them.
- Main Laptop: Typewriter
- Steam deck: Poet
- NAS: The Lake
- Main Pc, that has become more a render station since I mostly work on a laptop and game on a steam deck: Lighthouse
- Hue Hub: Light switch
- Phone: Flashlight
But when I started to be more interested in networking and installed openwrt on my router, I was more infatuated by Pacific Drive:
- Router: Outer Containment Wall
- WiFi 5/2.4 Dual: ARDAnet
- WiFi for iot: RemnantNet
- GuestNet: OEZone
- VPN: BreacherNet
- Switch: SparkTower
0·1 year agoI am no expert. But I think there is an ‘easier’ way too manage this with an overlay filesystem.
Have an immutable base with all permissions set. When a session is started have it be done in an in-memory overlay. On logout drop the overlay.
This might be easier if you don’t want to rely on cronjobs. But as I have no experience myself setting this up… ‘easier’ should be taken with a grain of salt. I just took inspiration from docker.
0·2 years agoThat is awesome. I prefer podman, despite what my list might suggest.
I work somewhere that doesn’t have licensing with Docker Inc. And I work on a Mac. With Docker desktop out of the picture, I got some experience with the alternatives. I know this post is about the native implementation and not the VM one, but I just wanted to add my 2 cents:
Alternatives run by me: Podman, Rancher Desktop, Finch
Results:
- Podman uses a lot more energy on idle than Finch and Rancher. On AVG 4 more Wats on an M1. (Normal idle is about 5W, so 9 almost doubles it cutting greatly in my battery life)
- Podman and Finch are not compatible with some tools that expect a full docker sock. In my case the AWS CDK and SAM CLI have issues. (Which is fun as Finch is also made by AWS)
- Finch does not offer a sock at all
- Finch requires you to recreate the full VM when updated.
- If you really want to have a drop-in replacement for Docker Desktop, use Rancher Desktop. Rancher lacks in UI and the extension feature. But I never had issues with the sock, as I can run it with containerd.
- Finch has no UI
- Podman’s VM has clock drift if you put your machine in sleep. Only solution I found is to reboot the podman VM.
- Podman allows you to log in the VM with a command. I haven’t found a way on the others.
You know what, next device I can (host)name will be the Muse. :D
