#BackupPilot - Finally a User-Friendly Desktop Client for #Proxmox Backup Server!
Many people still believe that Proxmox Backup Server is only meant for Proxmox VE environments and can only be used to back up virtual machines and containers. The reality is that the Proxmox Backup Client has been available for quite some time, allowing dedicated servers and desktop systems to benefit from the same centralized backup infrastructure.
The challenge? The client is powerful, but not necessarily the most user friendly tool for everyone.
That is where OneSystems GmbH (https://www.onesystems.ch) steps in with their #opensource project BackupPilot. It provides a modern and intuitive graphical interface that makes connecting Linux desktop systems to #ProxmoxBackupServer simple and accessible for everyone.
In my latest blog post, I take a closer look at BackupPilot and how it helps bring centralized backups to the desktop. If it fits from a time perspective, I'll also show a small live demo next to my other PBS and S3 talk at @credativde's next virtualization gathering. Entry is free, feel free to join!

Text read:
The infamous program comment "You are not expected to understand this" occurs on line 2238 of the source code (Lions' Commentary, p. 22) at the end of a comment explaining the process exchange mechanism. It refers to line 325 of the file slp.c.[9] The source code reads:[10][11]
The source code:
/*
* If the new process paused because it was

Dear researchers,
I am sick of #Elsevier and their antics (ridiculous APCs, inaccessible articles, unauthorised data-mininig, etc.) and want to avoid publishing with them as much as possible.
Can you suggest good journals in the following topics / fields (society journals welcome):
1. #microalgae
2. #molecularbiology
3. #crispr
4. #sustainability
#opensource #openaccess #academicresearch #academia
Please #boost so I can reach other academics.

Last week I published a new web toy, a Peter de Jong attractor visualiser. Written in plain JavaScript and rendering to a canvas, it comes with a small amount of interactivity to alter the coefficients and see the visualisation change.

🎉 Another milestone reached: my first contribution to @Mastodon has been merged into main!
I noticed the Service Worker was broken on 4.6.0-rc.1 and recent nightlies - its code chunks were requested from the site root and returned 404, so the worker never installed. That means no push notifications and no offline cache.
On my own instance I had been keeping it alive with some hacky Dockerfile symlinks. 😅
Now there's a proper fix: a small Vite plugin that rewrites the chunk paths at build time.
Admins on 4.6-rc.1 / nightly: the fix is on its way - your Service Worker will come back to life in the next build.

At the upcoming @FrOSCon conference, I'm talking about #PegaProx as a multi-cluster manager for #Proxmox VE and #XCPng based systems.
During this talk I share some information about how and why this project got crafted as well as some information about the projects' history.
Afterwards, I move over to a live demonstration where we will have a look at some great features that make the life easier for operators.

My first Outline contribution shipped yesterday in v1.9.0: CloudFront support for signed attachment URLs (PR #12656).
I wrote it months ago to solve my own problem, the PR got merged, and then life happened and I stopped checking. Yesterday I opened the release notes and there it was, my handle under "New Contributors".
Small patch. Still counts. That's kind of the whole point of open source.

🇳🇱 The Netherlands Built a Nix-Based Linux Desktop Because Microsoft Cut Off the ICC
｢ All of DAWO's code is hosted on a Forgejo instance, with a separate Codeberg instance acting as the entry point for contributors. And, to answer the question asked earlier, NixOS was chosen because it is a Dutch project, with no company owning or controlling its development ｣
