Hey #homelab users!

You probably already know me by my free @BoxyBSD project and I often got asked about IPv4 addresses. Currebtly, I tinker with a new but also honestly not free service. The idea is creating a static IP service for homelab users. I'm aware that there're already some around, so what could be some benefits here?

- Static single #IPv4 & #IPv6 /48 (so you can subnet your homelab to several /64 without breaking #slacc)
- Bigger subnets (IPv4: /29, /28, /27 | IPv6: /32)
- Full RIPE personalization (inc. abuse & Co)
- #OpenVPN, #Wireguard, #GRE Support
- Auto configure (e.g., you load the wireguard config on any client and the addresses Arena immediately bound to that interface)
- Split usage / multiple tunnels: Use different IPs from your subnets at different locations
- Integration into #BoxyBSD
- Location in Germany or Netherlands (selectable)
- Hosted on redundant #FreeBSD nodes

Pricing:
- The starter package probably around 10€/month (not more) + 15€ setup including 2T traffic
- Pricing for addiriinal/larger subnets not yet sure, probably higher setup fees to avoid hoppers and spamers to keep the addresses clean
- Optional traffic packages (when exceeding speed Limit of 10Mbit which should still be ok for most homelabs)

World this be interesting? Im aware that many ones already do this by VPS themselves, so this might just be a bit easier and optionally offering whole networks including RIPE personalizations.

#ProxLB - A loadbalancer for Proxmox clusters!

The Prox Load Balancer (ProxLB) helps you to rebalance your Container and VM workloads across your nodes in your Proxmox cluster. It is similar to VMware's DRS (Dynamic Resource Scheduler) which allows you to balance your cluster by memory, CPU or local storage usage to ensure an equal distribution within the cluster. With affinity & anti-affinity groups you can also create groups where objects should be moved to a different groups as a whole unit or even forbid to be scheduled on the same node (e.g. HA setups).

You can find more information at GitHub: github.com/gyptazy/ProxLB

So you can follow these instructions to get closer to a download but if you think you’re actually going to be able to download it… oh, cricket, you have so much more to learn…

What a shitshow, Broadcom.

At this point, if your time is worth anything, it’s actually more economical to pay for Parallels than to try and download VMWare Fusion for “free”.

Today has marked a new chapter in my professional life.
And I'm scared. Like a lot scared.
I'm going to play again in the "big league", and I'm not sure I'm ready for it.
There are high expectations of me.
I've changed, and a lot of things have changed.

The good news is that it's a place where I can geek out on some things I like.

@justine if half of the nation is down, you know who to blame now 😉

New learning unit in our #NetworkAutomation #eAcademy focused on #Xen, a highly efficient and scalable #hypervisor 👉 connect.geant.org/2024/10/04/n

Whether you’re just starting with virtualisation or looking to expand your expertise, this course will provide you with the skills to deploy and manage virtualised environments using Xen.
