The project that has a feature which allows admins to SSH to any computer in the VPN ? [1]
They have a feature called remote SSH access where the agent running on the node allows other VPN users to SSH to another machine on the network without having SSH enabled / public keys set up. I've tested the project at the beginning of the year and it was a big NO for me. They seemed to fix this issue but it appeared again.
I've been playing in my homelab in the past year with Illumos (OpenSolaris). After decades of using linux, everything is much simpler, all the linux constant changes are inexistent. Everything which was working in Solaris 10 (15-20y ago), still applies with small modifications today.
Has support for zones, which in my opinion are 10 steps above docker containers, has builtin ZFS support for root/zones/etc and so on.
Services are managed using SMF which has the only downside that services are configured using XML but usually if using only the builtin services it is not a problem. SmartOS also has a script to automatically configure the XML file.
I'm running OmniOS on a couple servers having a few zones each and I also run a SmartOS server for VMs. Launching a VM is a lot easier than on Linux. I can switch between Bhyve and KVM and use a single JSON file to configure all the VM properties and then launch the VM using a single command: vmadm create -f file.json.
All the networking is done using simple commands such as dladm and ipadm which are using the standard UNIX way.
I'm using a Slimbook executive 14 for about 1 month. It's the same chassis as the Tuxedo as far as I know. I bought it especially for running linux on bare metal (docker, kvm, linux tools).
Coming from Macbook I'm pretty happy with it. I got used very fast with KDE (I used it on desktop computer in the recent years from time to time). Touchpad it's great, keyboard is the same as on Macbook. Battery lasts about 5h now when programming (some Node.JS, compiling some Rust or Go services).
I had a 2016 Macbook Pro 15 with I7 and 16gbRAM, now it compiles a Rust service I'm working on in 1 minute compared to 6 minutes on the old laptop.
The laptop specs I'm having is the same as the Tuxedo and the same chassis: i7-12700H, 16gb Ram(updated it to 40gb myself), 512gb NvMe, 99wh Battery.
Also, the romanian Mig-21 are converted to NATO specs, the ukrainean are not able to use them without training. Maybe it is the same issue with the Polish/Bulgarian Mig-29.
Romania had about 400 Mig-21 bought during the cold war when it was an ally of USSR. In the begining of 2000s, they modernized about 70 Mig to NATO standards [1]. There were frequent issues with them with about 20 fallen in 30 years. The aircraft were modernized but it only included the avionics and elecronic+weapons to NATO standard, I think the engines remained original. After Romania left the Warsaw pact, the Russian didn't provide engines or parts anymore.
I'm using azk[0] for my development workflow with 30+ services defined in one Azkfile.js. It automatically setups http load balancers and dns services for you, no need for container linking.
