A ^fake^ email. It reads: From: Linus Torvalds torvalds@linux-foundation.org To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Subject: [RFC] Remove IPv4 support from kernel, effective next merge window Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2025 10:42:00 -0700 Message-ID: 20250815-drop-ipv4@linux-foundation.org

Hey folks,

After yet another deeply technical and entirely calm discussion about HRT (High-Resolution Timers) that somehow devolved into 200+ replies, personal insults, and at least one GIF of a raccoon, I have decided it’s time to take drastic measures.

Effective next merge window, we will be removing IPv4 support from the kernel. This will both (a) resolve the maintainers’ scheduling disputes, and (b) force the world into the IPV6 utopia we were promised back in 1998.

If you need IPv4 after this point, you can either:

run an ancient kernel from before the change (good luck with the bugs), or rewrite your applications to use IPv6 and learn to love colons in your addresses. Yes, I realize this will break roughly *everything *. No, I don’t care. I have already switched all my machines to IPv6-only, except for the toaster, which unfortunately still insists on using a 192. 168. x. x address. The toaster will be replaced.

If you disagree with this decision, I suggest you take it up with the HRT maintainers. But please keep it civil this time. (Or at least keep the raccoon GIFs under 1MB.)

I watched Blue Moon (2025) last night and frickin loved it! Looking for movies in this style that could be based off a play or made into a play. Some others that I have enjoyed:

Israeli soldiers like those in this video staff the military courts that have subjected hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank to sham trials.

According to the Israeli human rights organization B’Tselem, the conviction rate in these courts is approximately 96% and is based on coerced confessions obtained under torture.

These military courts are now set to apply the Israeli death penalty law, which is directed against the Palestinian people in the occupied territories.

Authentik Helm woes (discuss.tchncs.de)
submitted 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) by Starfighter@discuss.tchncs.de to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 
 

I'm currently in the long process of rebuilding my declarative homelab using k3s, ArgoCD and NixOS.

I had previously used Keycloak but that always seemed massively overqualified and way too complex for my purposes. With this rebuild I saw my chance to try out Authentik which appears to be in good standing with the homelab community.
They have tons of documentation for pretty much anything which was encouraging to me. Well except for the documentation for their Helm Charts maybe...

Started off with version 2025.12.x, am now onto 2026.02.x and have spent most weekends in between that on getting Authentik to even just deploy to the cluster.
It's partially my fault for attempting to use Secrets initially but even now with hardcoded keys in my git repo the default example chart doesn't work:

values.yaml

authentik:
  existingSecret:
    secretName: authentik-secret

  postgresql: # None of this gets applied at all so I do it manually below...
    password: "somepasswd"

server:
  replicas: 1

  env: # Manually apply all the configuration values. Why am I using Helm charts again?
    - name: AUTHENTIK_POSTGRESQL__HOST
      value: authentik-postgresql
    - name: AUTHENTIK_POSTGRESQL__USER
      value: authentik
    - name: AUTHENTIK_POSTGRESQL__PASSWORD
      value: "somepasswd"
    - name: AUTHENTIK_POSTGRESQL__NAME
      value: authentik

  route:
    main:
      # ...

postgresql:
  enabled: true

  auth: # And set everything here once again
    username: authentik
    password: "somepasswd"
    postgresPassword: "somepasswd"
    usePasswordFiles: false
    database: authentik

  primary:
    persistence:
      size: 4Gi

I started off with the official example and after all these undocumented changes it still only deploys-ish:

With the defaults authentik-server would always try to reach the DB under localhost which doesn't work in the context of this chart/k8s.
So after a while I figured out that the authentik: configuration block doesn't actually do anything and I set all the values the chart should set by hand.

Now the DB connects but the liveliness probe on the authentik-server pod fails. It logs the incoming probe requests but apparently doesn't answer them (correctly) leading to k8s killing the pod.

Sorry for the ramble but I've hit my motivational breaking point with Authentik.
Since the community seems to like it a bit I am left wondering what I'm doing wrong to have this many issues with it.

Did you people have this much trouble with Authentik and what have you switched to instead?

I'm pretty new to self-hosting in general, so I'm sorry if I'm not using correct terminology or if this is a dumb question.

I did a big archival project last year, and ripped all 700 or so DVDs/Blu-rays I own. Ngl, I had originally planned on just having them all in a big media folder and picking out whatever I wanted to watch that way. Fortunately, I discovered Jellyfin, and went with that instead.

So I bought a mini pc to run Ubuntu server on, and I just installed Jellyfin directly there. Eventually I decided to try hosting a few other services (like Home Assistant and BookLore (R.I.P.)), which I did through Docker.

So I'm wondering, should I be running Jellyfin through Docker as well? Are there advantages to running Jellyfin through Docker as opposed to installed directly on the server? Would transitioning my Jellyfin instance to Docker be a complicated process (bearing in mind that I'm new and dumb)?

Thanks for any assistance.
