I just wrote a post on how to use this to automatically disable/enable your laptop keyboard on plugging/unplugging your custom keyboard. Just one example.
In general, it allows you to set rules and automation about handling devices on the kernel level and comes with systemd (so most modern Linux distros have it by default, even Arch Linux)

Thank you for the feedback, could you be more specific?
Is it crossposting? Or Kubernetes-specific content in /c/programming?
Or giving tips on how to practice for specific certification exams?
Or do you dislike the prose format? Too much context? Do you prefer bullet points?
Or is it that I put an image while the link should be the focus? I see now that in my client I have to click through to the original post first to see and visit the URL


Impressive!


I don’t believe you, but I’d like to be proven wrong.
I expect you have a UPS that feeds your hosts and networking equipment and something like ZFS for disk redundancy. This protects against the most common failures and is usually enough, but there are still single points of failure in such a setup, that are not as common, not as hard to deal with through manual intervention, and quite difficult to protect with redundancy.
I would be surprised if you are protected against the following single points of failure without manual intervention:


Bitnami Helm charts are not maintained anymore. There are no updates for the charts and images in the legacy repository. Try to find a different chart for harbor registry and any other bitnami images and charts you use ASAP
My ASUS laptop special buttons above the normal keyboard are registered as a separate device to the kernel, so this does not impact them. They are far enough out of the way to not get pressed by my ergo split though.
