    Curious what #anonymous #encrypted traffic #torrent clients you #wizards use these days. #AlpineLinux still (gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/) does not yet have a package for #tribler, which uses #tor (the #flathub version also does not work on Alpine). I'm wondering if there's something else / better for people to protect themselves.

    So, after fighting with #tribblix for several weeks, and in lieu of attempting to install #oasislinux, I've installed #alpinelinux.

    I'm not huge on #swaywm so I've installed #riverwm as it's written in #zig which is the new cool language I've been told. Let's see if this lasts!

    I just wrote a self-hosted #dyndns server using #knotdns, #bottle for the update server (https PUT), and a #python client to detect IP changes. It's running on #AlpineLinux, the code is minimal and it only uses packages that are in the Alpine repos. Full #IPv4 and #IPv6 support, you can use either or both.

    Why? It's a cool project, and IMHO every dyndns clients and services I tried were bad, insecure, or both.

    If I choose the #amdgpu driver, the system crashes at boot.
    If I choose the #radeon driver, the system starts and runs almost normally (a few glitches may appear before displaying an image) as long as I don't play a video (then it crashes more or less severely).

    All of that is not a knock on Alpine Linux! I'm currently running a VM with Debian and Webmin to run my Samba share. After reading some Alpine Linux documentation, I really think I could just move that Samba share to a tiny Alpine Linux VM instead and use even less resources.

    It's just that Alpine Linux is apparently the wrong tool for the job for my dial-up project.

    Pro-Grade Ham Radio Displays: Integrating OpenHamClock into PiSignage

    758 words, 4 minutes read time.

    A Helping Hand Needed for a Fellow Programmer

    I’m reaching out to see if you can lend a hand to a talented software developer who’s currently on the job hunt. With over 30 years of experience in C#, .NET (Core/6–8), REST APIs, SQL Server, Angular/Razor, Kubernetes, and cloud CI/CD, he’s a seasoned pro with a proven track record of leading modernization projects and delivering production systems.

    Some of his notable accomplishments include DB2 to SQL migrations, building real-time SignalR apps, and developing full-stack API and frontend projects. Based in Southeast Michigan, he’s looking for senior engineering, architecture, or technical lead roles that will challenge him and utilize his skills.

    If you’re in a position to help, you can check out his resume and portfolio at http://charles.friasteam.com.

    Let’s all look out for each other – if you know of any opportunities that might be a good fit, could you please consider passing this along to your network?

    —

    If you are a ham radio operator, you know that a HamClock is the ultimate shack companion. But what if you want to move beyond a dedicated small screen and integrate that data-rich display into a professional digital signage environment?

    By using PiSignage, you can rotate your HamClock with other station metrics, weather, or club announcements. However, getting a clean, secure, and “pop-up free” experience requires a few tricks.

    In this post, I’ll show you how to deploy OpenHamClock using Docker and how to strip away the UI clutter for a seamless kiosk experience.

    The Setup

    To follow along, you will need a PiSignage server instance. I personally run mine as a Docker container, which keeps the server stack isolated and easy to back up.

    1. The Docker Compose Configuration

    PiSignage and modern browsers often require secure contexts (HTTPS) for certain features. Since the standard HamClock output is HTTP, we’ll use a two-service setup: the clock itself and a lightweight SSL-wrap sidecar using socat and openssl.

    docker-componse.yml

     services:    openhamclock:      image: ghcr.io/accius/openhamclock:latest      container_name: openhamclock      expose:        - "3000"      environment:        - CALLSIGN=<CALL SIGN>        - LOCATOR=<Grid Square Locator>        - THEME=dark        - UNITS=imperial      restart: unless-stopped     ssl-wrap:      image: alpine      container_name: hamclock-ssl      ports:        - "3000:3000"      command: >        sh -c "apk add --no-cache socat openssl &&                openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout /tmp/key.pem -out /tmp/cert.pem -days 365 -nodes -subj '/CN=localhost' &&               cat /tmp/cert.pem /tmp/key.pem > /tmp/combined.pem &&               socat OPENSSL-LISTEN:3000,cert=/tmp/combined.pem,verify=0,fork,reuseaddr TCP:openhamclock:3000"      restart: unless-stopped

    2. Silencing the “What’s New” Pop-ups

    When using HamClock as a signage element, you want it to be “set and forget.” The “What’s New” slide-ins are helpful for desktop users but ruin a clean kiosk display.

    While there is a formal change request pending for a toggle, you can currently “force” these elements to stay hidden by injecting a bit of CSS directly into the distribution files. Run this command within your app environment:

    find /app/dist -name "*.css" -exec sh -c 'echo "div[style*=\"whatsNewSlideIn\"], div[style*=\"backdrop-filter\"] { display: none !important; }" >> {}' \;

    3. Setting Up the Slide in PiSignage

    Once your containers are humming along, you need to tell PiSignage how to display the clock.

    Create the Weblink Asset

    1. Log in to your PiSignage Admin Panel.
    2. Navigate to Assets > Add > Weblink.
    3. Fill in the details:
      • Name: OpenHamClock
      • Link Address: https://<YOUR-HOSTNAME>:3000/?kiosk=true
    4. Click Save.

    Pro Tip: The ?kiosk=true suffix is critical. It tells HamClock to hide its own internal menus and headers, giving you a dedicated, high-contrast dashboard perfect for a wall-mounted display.

    Deploy to Your Player

    1. Go to Playlists and add your new “OpenHamClock” asset.
    2. Set the Duration: Set this to 0 for a permanent display, or a high number (like 300 for 5 minutes) if it’s part of a rotation.
    3. Go to Groups, select your player, and deploy the playlist.

    Your screen should refresh and show a beautiful, clean HamClock interface within seconds!

    Running PiSignage in Docker?

    For those of you looking to keep your entire server stack contained, running the PiSignage central server in Docker is the way to go. It keeps your host OS clean and makes management a breeze.

    If you’d like me to discuss how to set up a dockerized PiSignage server, please comment below!

    Call to Action

    Getting this stack to play nice wasn’t a “one-and-done” install. It was a hard-fought process that took multiple attempts to finally crack the code on bypassing those “What’s New” screens and forcing a clean kiosk display. But the victory is in the uptime.

    Don’t just lurk. If you’ve got the guts to show how you’re rebuilding your station on the wreckage of the old ways, drop a comment below. How are you occupying the victory today?

    Hi @rl_dane @sashin,
    naming the nice ones, I think of @artixlinux, @alpinelinux, @devuan, am I wrong?
    Still hoping for the BSDs @FreeBSDFoundation, @openbsdnow, @netbsd.
    Once the #mainstream goes mad, better be #niche.

    One full week under the keel running Alpine Linux on my primary workstation. Even set root on a ZFS mirror - simple to setup. First experience with rEFInd as well - I like it.

    Sharp and snappy, just like the way I like my cars! Ha!

    No new revelations compared to the first few weeks on the test workstation... I'm still tweaking some things for personalization as it happens but all good.

    The Alpine repos are full of good stuff and are current/up2date in a practical manner.

    The only flatpaks I've had to run are Waterfox, Signal Desktop and messing around with the new CoMaps Linux version (this exists - happy! happy! joy! joy!).

    I'm going to migrate my Debian Bookworm servers to Alpine when I get around to the upgrades. I'll keep clients on Debian for the foreseeable future.

    I'm not sure why I'm so excited about Alpine, it just feels like a breathe of fresh air! Modern and simple. Enjoying it.

    Ended up kicking Docker Hardened Images to the curb.

    The good folks at #Docker decided to update their #Redis image to use a distro-less start (no shell, no other utilities) *without changing the image tag*.

    So when I started up my #Mastodon server after an upgrade, my customization script wouldn’t run in the container and I had to scramble to find an alternative.

    Basically, they broke the contract of immutable image version tags. Won’t trust them again, even if it did harden #security further.

    So this server is back to a good ol’ upstream #PostgreSQL image on #AlpineLinux. And #Valkey on #Alpine, too, because Redis Ltd..’s software licensing shenanigans are sketchy.

    I don't expect OS/1337 to become the major #Desktop OS or even put a significant dent into #Yocto #Linux's marketshare.

    But I'd rather want to see it as something that drives #CriticalInfrastructure like #MedicalIT, #PowerGrids and #PLCs instead of cringeworthy #Bloatware like #Windows that is laced with so much #Govware that we can truly say #Microsoft is incompetent...
    youtube.com/watch?v=SGmtP5Lg_t

    In the end, it may end up like #AlpineLinux but to be fair I want to basically find a sweet spot between #mkroot-level simplicity and most modern distros with some basic quality-of-life additions that one can choose (or not!) to use.

    Like a really basic package manager that takes away the hassle of "build it yourself" if one trusts me...
