Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Anon is worried about Linux
Projects like Tow-Boot, a distribution of U-Boot, provide a nice boot menu and allow you to boot the "generic ARM" ISOs that are usually just UEFI. On the Raspberry Pi 3 and 4, you can put Tianocore EDK2 onto the SD card and boot any UEFI image, including Windows 10 or 11 for ARM.

Raspberry Pi 4 running Gentoo?
The approach I used is very different from the conventional setup. Most setups will rely on the default boot loader stack that the Raspberry Pi uses, but this project instead relies on the UEFI images provided by https://github.com/pftf/RPi3/ and https://github.com/pftf/RPi4 instead. There are two reasons for this.

Raspberry Pi 3 Fastboot – Less Than 2 Seconds
> Isn't a faster boot what everybody wants?
I’ll rather have slow boot and proper UEFI support so I can boot any vanilla ARM64 Linux distro (Debian proper), instead of images/distros which have been crafted to be device-specific (Raspbian).
I boot this thing once every second month at most. I honestly couldn’t care less about boot-times.
Luckily for me, there are solutions to my problem too ;)

Google will soon block YouTube and Maps apps for Android 2.3 users
It's been manually implemented for many devices - the Renegade Project and Raspberry Pi 3 implementation do exactly this.

State of netbooting Raspberry Pi in 2021
Odd to see using UEFI to NetBoot not considered an option at all.
It should eliminate the timing-bug and leave you in a more reliable (and scriptable!) pre-boot environment. What more do you need?!?
Both the RPi3 and 4 can be UEFI booted, so this is definitely a real-world option.

- Considering giving OpenBSD another try
- I've recently got OpenBSD up and running on a Pi 3B. I've documented the process, in case it is useful to anyone else.

Ask HN: Are there any open source forks of nomad smd consul?
Opinionated meaning it picks, install, patches your CNI/Ingress/Load Balancer/DNS Server/Metrics Server/Monitoring Setup.
k3s is probably most well known as it ships with bunch of preinstall software: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s so you can just start throwing yaml files at cluster and handling workloads. It's what I use for my homelab.
Paid things I've heard of include OpenStack and SideroLabs. Haven't used personally by SRE coworkers say good things about them.

Linux fu: getting started with systemd
For self-hosting I've found https://k3s.io to be really good from the SUSE people. Works on basically any Linux distro and makes self-hosting k8s not miserable.

Nix is a better Docker image builder than Docker's image builder
Yes it’s going to depend on which k8s distribution you’re using. We have work in-progress for k3s to natively support nix-snapshotter: https://github.com/k3s-io/k3s/pull/9319
For other distributions, nix-snapshotter works with official containerd releases so it’s just a matter of toml configuration and a systemd unit for nix-snapshotter.
We run Kubernetes outside of NixOS, but yes the NixOS modules provided by the nix-snapshotter certainly make it simple.

K3s Traefik Ingress - configured for your homelab!
I recently purchased a used Lenovo M900 Think Centre (i7 with 32GB RAM) from eBay to expand my mini-homelab, which was just a single Synology DS218+ plugged into my ISP's router (yuck!). Since I've been spending a big chunk of time at work playing around with Kubernetes, I figured that I'd put my skills to the test and run a k3s node on the new server. While I was familiar with k3s before starting this project, I'd never actually run it before, opting for tools like kind (and minikube before that) to run small test clusters for my local development work.

Building a no-code Helm UI with Windmill - Part 1
I’ve created a local cluster with K3S and installing Windmill could not be simpler with just one chart to configure, which already has sane defaults to get started. For this demo we will also configure workers to passthrough environment variables to our scripts so that they have access to the Kubernetes API server for later.
