Omada SDN Controller on FreeBSD

I've been investigating switching from Unifi Wifi APs to TP-Link EAPs and the EAPs can be managed by a software controller called Omada. This software is architecturally similar to the Unifi controller: Java and MongoDB.blog.feld.me

@matt in fact, I have a complete unmanaged VPS. When I've decided to leave the shared web hosting to got a VPS, I chose to install Webuzo, which best met my needs at the time (having like a shared hosting service but completely controlled by me).
So if I set up a new VPS, you have some suggestions for me ? Still using a thing like Yunohost (that supports GoToSocial installation in one click) or get a thing like Coolify to use Docker and Docker Compose ?

We recently merged an initial version of vector layers in #GIMP ! Very happy that we were able to update Hendrik Boom's 2006 project and finally get it across the finish line. :)
There's still plenty of UI/UX work to be done but I'm curious - what are some good "next steps" for vector layers in a raster editor?
I assume vector layer masks would be helpful, along with the long-requested shape tool.
TIL that #Mapycom is more than just a renderer on top of #OpenStreetMap. They actually import buildings from #Overture, which #OSM doesn't consider reliable enough for automatic imports.
From what I've seen, the results are mixed in Greece, with many buildings that don't exist in reality.

Bitcoin has revolutionized whole industries*, and brought others† back from the brink of extinction.
* ~ like ransomware
† ~ coal-fired power plants
None. Go ahead and make it completely illegal to run Bitcoin off fossil fuels worldwide. It wouldn't matter, they'll just switch to renewables. That's where it's going anyway because you want the cheapest source of electricity possible to mine Bitcoin or you can't be competitive, and renewables are undercutting fossil fuels all the time. This will cause a small ripple in the BTC price for a short period of time during the transition but that's all. It won't and can't kill Bitcoin.
And those coal plants? Many will just be converted to natural gas, not shutdown, because the cost of new transmission lines to large renewable deployments is prohibitive. That's the real kicker. We can build cheaper energy sources which are clean, but we can't transport it very far.

Libervia CLI tip 4:
If you see an XMPP powered blog like those made with Libervia or Movim, you can use directly the `https:` URL to retrieve the XMPP blog or one of its posts.
For instance, to get my blog at goffi.org with Libervia CLI, you can do:
`li blog get -u goffi.org`
This works with all pubsub related commands, so if you have the right, you can also edit or publish like that.
Was approached by a person who was upset. According to him I was rude in a libcurl mail response back in 2010 and I should not be rude to people.
I have no recollection of the person nor the email exchange. Tried to explain we do our best to remain friendly. He was not convinced.

Sigh. Another person complaining about "Linux doesn't support laptops," which is completely, 1000%, backwards. This irks me to no end.
If your laptop doesn't work well with Linux, point the finger at the laptop vendor -- not "Linux". I get that it's frustrating to want to use Linux and find that this or that piece of hardware doesn't work.
You know why it works w/Windows and not Linux? *Because the _vendor_ hasn't gone to the trouble of supporting Linux.*
Im very impressed with Slidge whatsapp bridge on my Prosody server. It is far more stable and reliable than I ever expected, and means I do not need any Facebook owned apps on my personal phone, as whatsapp is installed on my work phone only and slidge is linked to that ( my workplace use it, because free and “everyone has it” heh.)
My family have refused to move over to xmpp after the matrix server we used shut down, even after I ran a few different test servers on both prosody and ejabberd and tested reliability of the platforms and mobile notifications. (Both work great, but at the time I decided on Prosody.) My family’s reasoning was that they already use whatsapp and I’m just being weird.
The slow creep of rights and privacy erosion is disturbing to me, and the small amount I can do like running my own fedi instance and chat server at least helps me keep my sense of sanity in this crazier and crazier world of surveillance and data harvesting.
A bridge to the chat platform at least means it isn’t on my phone that is with me everywhere, and doesn’t inconvenience my family from me being the “weird extremist”.
We do what we can.
Something small again today. My brother sent me this photo of a Microlino electric car which he saw in Prague recently. The Microlino, a design that has clearly been inspired by the 1950s Isetta bubble cars, is made in Italy but the company is Swiss. Vitae appears to be a small Czech company specialising in lighting technology, by the way (just looked it up).

in reply to feld • • •turns out you can't use -Dos.name=Linux to trick Java into changing this value.
You also can't use a custom Java Agent. I made one, used it like -javaagent:osagent.jar=Linux to let me inject a different value into the JVM.
Turns out when you do that, Java kinda explodes. Linux-specific things are not in the FreeBSD JVM so it breaks.
When something relies on matching the os.name, the only thing you can do is modify the Java jar/class bytecode directly so the JVM doesn't blow up.
Super annoying because I thought I had a really clever solution to avoid needing to repeat this process every time the software is updated.

in reply to Guido Kollerie • • •@guido @ronnie_bonkers Now that it's working (with unknown missing functionality), keeping it working isn't too hard. One manual step every new controller release to modify a jar before publishing the port update isn't too bad.
I really just don't want to be forced to run a VM for this 🤮
