• Failed to connect to the host via SSH on Ubuntu 22.04

  If you have just upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04, and you suddenly experience either errors when trying to ssh into hosts, or when running ansible or again when running the ansible provisioner building a packer image, this is probably going to be useful for you. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Create a minimalist OS using Docker Containers and Hashicorp Packer

  I am already using Hashicorp Packer at work and for personal projects and I wanted to test This idea out by wrapping it a single Packer Template file. This reduces the level of maintaining a lot of small scripts, Dockerfiles and configurations and the user can simply trigger a couple of Commands to get a minimalist OS at the end of the process. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel. The oligopoly has won.

  And while it is a slight increase in complexity, it can be an overall net gain in functionality, configurability and reliability. Much like Packer is far more reliable and practical than manually making VM images sitting in front of a terminal, even though making the initial configuration takes some time.

• Customized Ubuntu Images using Packer + QEMU + Cloud-Init & UEFI bootloading

  Hashicorp Packer provides a nice wrapper / abstraction over the QEMU in order to boot the image and use it to set it up on first-boot. Instead of writing really long commands in order to boot up the image using QEMU, Packer provided a nice Configuration Template in a more Readable fashion. - Source: dev.to / almost 2 years ago

• The journey of sharing a wired USB printer over the network

  Packer seemed like the perfect tool for the job. I have never used it before and wanted to get familiar with the tool. It doesn't come with ARM support out of the box, but there are two community projects to fill that niche. - Source: dev.to / about 2 years ago

• I need local playtesters for tabletop games [DFW]

  If you have a bit more budget, you can also recruit participants from online panels (like userinterviews.com or respondent.io). For an incentive, you can screen the right people to participate in your playtest. Keep in mind you will need to do some vetting and make sure you're not getting "professional" participants.

• B2b user testing

  If you're having difficulty recruiting yourself, I've used respondent.io in the past. Keep in mind recruiting hard to access types of users is often expensive and/or time consuming. Source: over 1 year ago

• I am terrified to even start budgeting because if I don't neglect my bills, I can't afford food. or alcohol. and that's scary too. I'm so terrified. of being hungry, of being properly broke... I need fucking help, but I can't afford it

  Figure out how you can make more income. Maybe you create an account on upwork or fiverrr (platform for freelancers) and help a company out with social media, or reviewing resumes. Maybe you try driving for doordash or ubereats. Maybe you sign up for respondent.io and get paid to do research interviews (we hire people from here all the time). I promise making a little bit of extra cash goes a long way to feeling... Source: over 1 year ago
