LXD is a container “hypervisor”, its similiar to

this patch allows us to include pillar entries from previous files/includes in the current one.

This is usefull when you want to calculate for example network data with/or without defaults.

I’m a heavy user of Saltstack, on my home network i develop salt states and test new stuff and on my production servers i use the results of
my development at home.

My motiviation for this:

• I have a dream of automated deployed LXD containers which you can manage with a web interface like Froxlor.
  
• I want a database where i can easily modify contents with a script.
  
  

Prerequisites

• Knowledge of Saltstack
  
• Knowledge of MongoDB
  
  

Salt Modules in use

• salt.tops.mongo
  
• salt.pillar.mongo
  
  

I open sourced all components of my blog, this post is for anyone who want’s the same blog or build one on top of mine.

I use atom.io with a bunch of plugins. Atom.io is made by github, it uses the webkit engine underneath so its a browser engine running a extensible editor. :-)

So far theres no debugger for Go and Atom.io.

atomtips.com explains my reasons to switch to Atom from Sublime quiet good.

Since some time i use diff-configs.sh to
show all my manual config changes, its very nice to transfer them.

These are the Firefox Addons i use for privacy, development and some fine utilities.

I use Pulseaudio to send my audio to a different computer where i have a sound system plugged in,
and i switch between computers with sound stations.

This howto will help you to create you’r own OSS Network audio sender and receiver.
