There’s some right shite written in The Times these days.

@zhenech here's the code that actually throws the error. https://github.com/containers/container-libs/blob/a3b0f19c3ea12cb02f0b11788489c52d4fb02e96/common/libnetwork/internal/util/validate.go#L35 (sorry, I'm using you as a rubber duck here ;))

@zhenech partial solution: I've defined the network with a wrong/temporary IP range, and then edited the JSON file afterwards.

@zhenech alas the second cmd there also throws the "already used on host or by another config" error. I'm wondering if the old CNI config lying around could be the problem…

@zhenech the beige already exists, yes: i didn’t try that exact invocation (i think a superset). Going to fiddle a bit more this morning :)

@zhenech my own write up is https://jmtd.net/log/podman_network/ , but it isn’t as useful as the other blog post by someone else

@zhenech yeah the previous setup I used was a bridge. I followed this guide at the time (not the macvlan bit, the bit after). https://blog.carroarmato0.be/2020/05/08/exposing-podman-container-on-the-network/ with trixie’s podman (using netavark), it explicitly detects and rejects defining a bridge network that overlaps a CIDR the host already has. Perhaps there’s a flag to ignore that warning I haven’t found yet.

With Podman's former network backend, it was possible to configure a container network that mapped to my home network. Thus, containers were first-class and I could reach them from any LAN client. With the new one (netavark), it *seems* to be impossible. Does anyone know if it can be done?

The podman network documentation (and netavark) is diabolical. Rant over, off to bed.

@mart_brooks for the avoidance of ambiguity I had the jab last weekend. The symptoms I’m describing happened earlier this week.

@mart_brooks it’s not that I don’t “like” it. I can’t get out of bed for days afterwards. I didn’t have the same problem with the Astra zeneca jabs. I don’t remember reacting to Moderna either (which I think is another mRNA-based one) strangely

the mRNA Covid vaccine really disagrees with me. I wonder if the NHS offers an alternative for those who suffer too many side effects?

Caught by surprise by just how many breaking changes there are in the version skew for Borgmatic between Debian bookworm (1.7.7) and trixie (1.9) including, it seems, a complete configuration language change. This is supposed to be a convenience wrapper around borg. This is very inconvenient.

@mdione @phildini that’s still a big deal!

@mdione @phildini I’ll have to check, news to me! Good news

@mdione @phildini after decades on mutt I moved to aerc a couple of years ago, but I keep (neo)mutt around for a couple of rarely-used features that aerc lacks, and this (thread break/join) is one of them

Fed up with Cerbot’s shortcomings. Initial experiment with Apache mod_md went well. For nginx users, their acme module looks good too.

Upgrade my main Borgbackup instance past the scary CVE-2023-36811 mitigation ("borg check might delete all your backups") line in the sand, and the world didn't end. yay

OK! One more correction done, 40/55. Need a palette cleanser from that now. Over to work-head…

@fred we should just deprecate Slack(s) entirely.
