  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    three raspberries pi running k3s is good enough for me

    Do you run Docker in a VM or on the host node? I'm running a lot of LXC at home on Proxmox but sometimes it'd be nice to run Docker stuff easily as well.

    Just create an LXC container to run your dockers, all you have to do is make sure you run the LXC as privileged and enable nesting.

    Thanks for the tip, for some reason I assumed I couldn't run docker in LXC but never actually tried... I prefer to avoid the overhead of a full VM and I find LXCs way easier to manage from the host system. Guess I'll have something to test this weekend. Cheers!

    There are security performance and capability concerns with that approach, apparmor on the first layer lxc probably being the most annoying.

    If you want to isolate your docker sandbox from your main host, you should use a vm not a container.

    OP's already running LXC on the host, so... Namespaces are namespaces...

    I don't see what performance issues there would be with that.

    [–] Dran_Arcana@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

    You're correct that nesting namespaces is unlikely to introduce measurable performance degradation. For performance, I was thinking mostly in the nested virtual network stack adding latency. Both docker and lxc run their own virtual interfaces.

    There's also the issue of running nested apparmor, selinux, and/or seccomp checks on processes in the child containers. I know that single instances of those are often enough to kill performance on highly latency sensitive applications (SAP netweaver is the example that comes to mind) so I would imagine two instances of those checks would exacerbate those concerns.

    Unraid FTW.

    I bought a decade old Z840 and it's great for VMs, Plex, Arr stack, and a few other services but it is so overkill with 2 GPUs. I think what I should've done was buy a couple of used desktops or laptops to expand the my homelab as I needed.

    Ain't nobody got time for that

    Raspberry Pis are way overhyped and overpriced.

    Also this is totally wrong. Once you start it just keeps growing unless there is some other factor.
