schestowitz                    <p>In my opinion, in most cases, you are better off putting the source of truth in Git instead of NetBox. You get a lot of perks by doing that and you can still use NetBox as a read-only view, usable by other tools. We do that with an Ansible module. In the remaining cases, Git could still fit the bill. Read-only access control can be done through submodules. Pull requests can restrict write access: a bot can check the changes Nov 16 06:10
schestowitzonly modify allowed files before auto-merging. This still requires some Git knowledge, but many teams are now comfortable using Git, thanks to its ubiquity.</p></blockquote></li>Nov 16 06:10

schestowitz                <p>For its "Bullseye" release we mainly get a number of behind the scenes updates, including a speed boost for those of us lucky to have new BCM2711 SoC with a C0T model number. these chips appear on newer Raspberry Pi 4, Compute Module 4 and Pi 400 boards and it appears that for the Pi 4 and CM4 you get an extra 300 MHz performance boost, 1.8 GHz, vs the stock 1.5 GHz. Owners of older Raspberry Pi 4 with B0T model numbers can still Nov 16 06:12

schestowitz                <p>The new Raspberry Pi OS is still based upon a 32-bit release, but it appears that there is also a 64-bit release, lurking in the shadows and spotted by Geerling. Whether this is still a beta or ready for release remains uncertain.</p></blockquote></li>Nov 16 06:12

schestowitz                    <p>OpenBSD The OpenBSD operating system is well known for its security, clean design, and accurate documentation. Something it is less known for is being used as a gaming platform. The OpenBSD Webzine interviewed one of the OpenBSD developers who is working on bringing games to the platform: "Working on games on OpenBSD has a very pioneering feel to it because it seems so outlandish at first sight. The advantage for me is that Nov 16 07:35
schestowitzthere is lots of (relatively) low-hanging fruit and little risk of breaking something that's critical to many users and developers. There is a certain purist take on using OpenBSD that I disagree with. Like that certain applications are frivolous and not worthy of developer attention - games, watching videos, social media... or even a graphical user interface. Instead, I hope to increase the scope of use without sacrificing the core ideas driving Nov 16 07:35
