What is Kubernetes - and why is it everywhere in 2025?
From online banking to streaming apps, most modern software runs on it.
We break it down in simple terms - with trains, containers, and Swiss precision.

Reminder that #CloudNativePDX happens Wednesday evening. I'll be presenting, but more importantly Chelsea Wright, metrics maven, will be as well.
Join us in Beaverton, 5:30pm Wed.! Games afterwards!
Here I'm testing that this Docker manager works also with Orbstack-managed containers, meanwhile I mess with the containers in Orbstack. So far so good!
Again, based on Deluxe UI. No Docker Desktop, no browser, no QT, GTK, JVM, .NET CLR, Electron, or Tauri. Nothing of that. Just one simple native binary.

Thought bubble: Custom uCore as my NAS
Everything I do on my FreeBSD NAS is doable on uCore, but the main thing I have to think about is how to replicate my ISP-proof-FreeBSD-jail-using-ProtonVPN-for-torrenting setup. I could try using a VM, but I'm thinking LXC/Incus would be better.
As I recall, LXC was kind of not really straightforward to configure. If I could just edit a single configuration file for everything like I do with FreeBSD jails that would be great. Or even a modular, per-container configuration file setup.
I also should look into Cockpit as a web UI. I haven't used it in a while, so there's liable to be new features I haven't tried yet. It would be pretty cool if there was a Cockpit module for Incus/LXC containers.
