FFS we talked about that this week.
Fucking moron running a fucking docker built by a fucking idiot that has no fucking clue what they are doing exposed to the fucking internet.
Not only that, the dumbass didn't have monitoring on his system(s). If my system spikes to 800% fucking CPU I am going to be notified. I would have caught that in minutes or less and shut it the fuck down while I take apart the (offline) image to see what the fuck happened.
STOP LETTING DEV'S DEPLOY ANYTHING.
I AM SO TIRED OF THIS STUPID.
...as I sit here and hand bulid a linux box, and its totally inside my shitwall.....but still...do shit the old way.
I wish for Ubuntu Jeos back.....I loved that shit. But now we have phased updates and pay as you go security patches.
Devaun enters the chat.
yeah devaun, I'll get back to you in a few
I automate my build process to create a master image that is easily reproducible.
Yes, even for what I deploy at home. I want everything to have a base set of tools, typical mount points, etc....
Then I create roles/automation around what specific task that system is designed for so it is also reproducible. What if I need to rebuild it from scratch? well, its all in my automation and if there are bugs I can figure them out quickly at run-time and a system rebuild that might take a couple days now is a hour or two at most (usually less than a hour since the automation works).
This is all in a local repo backed up to a remote site fully encrypted so I can retrieve it if my hardware fails... etc... I don't quite have that redundancy for (all) of my data but I am working on it.
Eventually if I need to I could fully rebuild everything I run at home by running a couple of jobs after spending ~10 minutes to stand up a master-node to kick the process off.
I have "built datacenters" with a config file and a terminal/node/whatever you want to call it. Its not that hard when you take apart all of the pieces and make them small.
How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time. I am currently hand buliding devaun to replace my ubuntu boxes.
I havent had to rebuild an ubuntu box in 3 years.....so over automation just becasue seems to be a waste of time.
Course if someone kicks in my door and takes all my shit, well, I am somewhat fucked.
I do have backups, encrypted blobs, offsite, and on ssd and spinning disks co-located.
most all of the linux shit, I only rebuild for the giggles, to test and deploy new solutions.
Maybe I should automate more.....I continue to just write bash scripts to do all the heavy lifting for most of the common shit I install. Moving from one distribution to another that don't work exaclty perfect....so I have to modify it. as I said I want a gui on my servers because I am lazy and want to sit there sometimes to do the work (get away from the noise of the tv). So still trying to land on the best devaun gui, none which I like using budgie as Its clean and the icons are in the make sense places, as I daily drive macos. I have 2 notebooks running budgie for travel and the lady.....don't wnat to upset that apple cart.....so if I move her, it needs to look the same. Ubuntu does some custom shit to budgie that budgie off the shelf dosent visually have.....yeah, run plank, and just modify....well thats harder and takes time. I'd like out of the box iso to just be spiffy and pretty enough to get by. One can hope.
