A recent update in Chrome (Blink) based browsers added the functionality to control media playing via the media buttons on your keyboard. As a side effect you can also control media on a remote system if you use something like KDE Connect. But what if you don’t want this behaviour and want your media controls to just control your actual media player?
I want to be able to update my machine at any time without having to waste a lot of time waiting for stuff to download. Over the years I’ve had my fair share of small issues occuring when doing an update on a system running a “desktop”. So for a few years now I do my updates when logged out of a “desktop” in a tty.
Help my client is complaining some parts of the application are slow. Now what?
To suit my personal preferences and diverting package choices compared to stock arch linux I have created a simple reinstall script to suit my needs.
The goal is to have a somewhat uniform way of installing my machines and have full disk encryption for root. Here the unlock key is stored on a portable usb device for additional security. You can argue about the added value over a password, but I like it this way.
The script should also enable me to install a new machine fairly quickly without having to do all the things manually. So if I want to use Deepin desktop, Plasma desktop, i3 or fluxbox, I want to get a working set of packages which I can start working with. Eventually there might be packages I need to do something extra, but I just tried to have a sane default for myself.

We always start with the best intentions when we create a new project. But over time we might end up with parts of our code that are hard to read or/and understand.

When you are already developing your Magento 2 application using Docker, it would nice to be able to deploy it using Docker.

Surprise, I went to Meet Magento NL 2018. Actually this was a little surprise for me too. Originally I had submitted a few talks for this conference, but I did not know how it went. Since we already discussed at work to go to DPC 2018 I thought, maybe next year. Around 2 weeks before the event I got an email from Sander telling me something went wrong with the feedback on my proposals and they were offering me a ticket to attend the conference. I was happy with the proposal but still doubted shortly if I would go or not since that would be 2 weeks in a row going away, and I still have work to to in our house. But I really wanted to see some people speak and was interested to hear their experiences. So there I went, to Meet Magento NL 2018.
How do we get started with docker swarm and how do we get to the point we can properly deploy and update our php applications.
Do we need central logging, metrics, alerting to have confidence in our swarm.

I am a huge fan of shell scripting. But recently it did give me very unexpected behaviour which lead me to start using python for “shell” scripts.
What happened? I was trying to create helpers that called other helpers and passed the arguments with “$@”. This worked fine for a very long time until you pass along strings like ‘-e “CREATE DATABASE foo”’ to a shell script.
I want to explain why running everything in containers is an improvement over install all your required software on a server. How containers can help us build better quality software faster.
When you are developing a complex website with multiple subdomains and full https, it can be hard to mimic it in your development environment. For this purpose we will create a CA we will trust for development and that will allow us to generate multi-domain ssl keys.
When I installed opera-devel on my machine it did not play well with the activities I use in KDE. Opera was available in all my activities at all the time.
Lets explain in clear and short how to setup a dhcp/dns with dhcpd and bind.
The goal is to have a predefined dns where the dhcp connected hosts are automatically added so you get a more convenient way to connect to other machines on your network. Especially not having to remember the ip address of the others.
