Think of it as the web before it got complicated. Pages are written in "gemtext", a minimal markup […]

Is it Linux? Is it Windows? It's Winboat (https://github.com/TibixDev/winboat) a real Windows 11 VM, running inside a Docker container. Accessing the individual applications via xRDP.

And it works surpsisingly good! 🙂

I’ve officially stopped using generate_systemd for my Podman deployments.

I updated my Ansible playbooks to use the Quadlet support in the containers.podman collection (state: quadlet).

A split-screen view of a developer workspace. Right side: A Neovim code editor showing an Ansible playbook. The highlighted task uses the containers.podman.podman_container module with state: quadlet to deploy a rootless UBI9 web server. Left side: A terminal window showing the playbook execution. The output shows successful tasks (green and yellow) and ends with a cat command displaying the generated systemd Quadlet file, confirming 'AutoUpdate=registry' is set.
