You should try it with ClusterAPI! So easy; just change the manifests and new nodes get deployed automatically.

Upgrading #talos and #kubernetes on Talos is just “chefs kiss”.
After I get the media suite and #HomeAssistant migrated I'll be able to pave hypnotoad and have two beefy bare metal worker nodes. Hypnotoad has an i7-7700T (4c8t) and 64GB memory and the iGPU is no slouch, plus an aftermarket 2.5gbit NIC. I have another 128gb SSD and a 2TB nvme waiting. And of course nibbler has an i7-12700 (12c20t) with 128gb memory and an Nvidia P4 GPU.
Today's #Kubernetes update:
It's my birthday so I took the day off and got a bunch of stuff ticked off the list!
- Put the 128gb SSD into nibbler and installed #Talos
- Installed Longhorn
- Got Jellyfin working on nibbler with the iGPU and a Longhorn volume for config and NFS mount for media
- Accidentally deleted the worker VM on hypnotoad and witnessed things not breaking
- Spun up a control plane VM on morbo (TrueNAS SCALE)
- Intentionally deleted the control plane VM on hypnotoad
I'm super stoked that things just didn't break when I accidentally deleted a worker. Kind of validates the whole project.
Next steps are to migrate more stuff. The *arrs suite is the next candidate, followed by Home Assistant. Also I need to figure out Longhorn backups.
New post 'Kubernetes On Hetzner Cloud+Robot With Talos Linux':
https://calebwoodbine.nz/kubernetes-on-hetzner-cloud-robot-with-talos-linux/
How I built a staging cluster and deployed to Hetzner Robot and Cloud for letsboot.
It took a couple of weeks learning how the the values yaml files for rook ceph are supposed to be written. But I have finally managed to get a rook ceph storage cluster configured on a Talos kubernetes cluster!
I can do this stuff!
Next step is getting it to work with an ArgoCD CI/CD pipeline.
@rasterweb I have been looking at a FOSS replacement for my Synology NAS.
#truenas scale was definitely recommended but I am inevitably drawn to a code-as-infrastructure fetish.
I also considered #nixos with ZFS but I think it’s time for high-availability capabilities in my homelab. So I COULD do NixOS with a k3s service.
Ultimately, I’ll probably instead run a cluster of machines with #talos Linux and get that lovely NAS functionality back (and then some) by running a #rookceph image.
Money Laundering 101, and why there is concern
This newsletter discusses the process of money laundering in the context of cybercrime, particularly ransomware attacks. It explains the three basic steps of money laundering: placement, layering, and integration. The author expresses concern about regulatory changes that might facilitate easier money laundering, emphasizing the importance of targeting money laundering infrastructure to combat cybercrime. The newsletter also highlights recent security issues, including airport outages in Malaysia, satellite security, and a Chrome zero-day vulnerability. Additionally, it provides information on upcoming security events and lists prevalent malware files detected by Talos telemetry.

#microk8s cluster rebuilt with #talos and #raspberrypi nodes swapped out for used hp elitedesk minis with i5s and 16GB…
I always forget how much work moving things around in the rack is but the #homelab is chugging away again happily now.
Ok so installing #talos from a usb stick didn’t work as it wanted to use the stick as the system disk. Had to image directly on to the internal SSD.
Still, the first worker node is up and running. Couple more to get going. All eBay HP EliteDesk Mini G2s with an i5-6500 processor and 16GB.
Will be selling some 8GB #raspberryPi 4s in a couple of weeks after the upgrade. If you are in the UK and interested let me know…
#TechTalkReco J'adore les initiatives qui montrent que #Kubernetes peut être simple !
Et cette prez c'est exactement çà, avec #Talos, présenté par Quentin Joly (@une-tasse-de.cafe sur )
En quelque minutes, on aura un cluster k8s opérationnel, immutable et avec une conf déclarative
Enjoy
More fun! #ClickHouse, #Kubernetes, and #RaspberryPi clusters for dev environments and testing: https://dub.sh/VN21JTp (blog post and recorded livestream).
I wanted to use #nixos or #talos for a declarative OS-layer but Pi5 support is not strong yet. Raspbian with the Raspberry Pi Imager wasn't too bad though.
I needed a lot of hours, reading, testing, trying, erroring and solving. All while using search engines and LLM's for support and questions. I wanted to do this myself, and I feel bad when I ask people what I think are stupid questions.
But I have finally got a working Pulumi config in Python that gets a Talos based Kubernetes cluster up and running.
Now to spend time tweaking it and getting the config just right. Like changing CNI and adding ArgoCD.
