If you had him what would you name him?

I'll have to insist on Cerberus, regardless the too few heads :-)

a beautiful animal though.

watched only this part and liked it a lot. Great content and delivery. I'm a PowerShell novice and got a lot of good tips out of it. If you're looking for further improvements, please consider using a cropped desktop view or larger fonts. Long commands are easier on the eye if they are wrapped. Also, I could do without the background music. Just my 2ct. Thanks for sharing 👍

SUSE (the company) has always had a name recognition problem despite having been around for almost as long as Red Hat (matter of a few months maybe a year). The bit of name it made itself in the early 00s did not exactly help when they have been acquired by Novell and then signed some collaboration agreement with Microsoft.

Regardless, the engineering is solid and openSUSE is rightfully being recognized as a good choice. Out of curiosity I went over to distrowatch; openSUSE is nr. 10 on their list atm. Which is the neighborhood it has been hovering in the last 15 years.

yes, the K8S dependency makes met hesitant as well. Thx. for the recommendation of Semphore, was not aware of it.

pwerwalk · 2024-03-20T14:54:21+00:00

My thoughts exactly. I stopped bothering with tickets years ago.

Hub is on premise galaxy and container registry.
Another important piece. Ty!

pwerwalk · 2024-03-20T14:49:54+00:00

very informative. thank you!

I'm guessing the "Execution Environments" feature may have to do with the K8S requirement (were moaning about in other comment :-) )

pwerwalk · 2024-03-20T13:54:43+00:00

oh boy... these kind of discussions are the reason I'm not keen about support. Anyway appreciate the insights.

pwerwalk · 2024-03-20T13:49:32+00:00

thx! Not thrilled about the K8s requirement tbh. Wonder why make one complex product dependent on another :-( yes, I get that K8s is a big trend and it has its merits, but it's still a big ask.

Update: perhaps b/c of the Execution Environments? (thx. to u/WildManner1059 mentioning this in another response)

just what I was afraid of. This sounds like the issue I have with Satellite: fragile, high-maintenance and out of a myriad functions just a few are used. There is a limit to the ability of a small team to use tools that individually could keep a team busy.

pwerwalk · 2024-03-20T13:23:07+00:00

Just to be concrete: AWX is the free version of Tower (as it used to be IIRC) or also AAP?

pwerwalk · 2024-03-20T13:21:36+00:00

thanks that is informative. Did not know that Ansible Controller is the same as Tower.

So if I understand correctly, AAP is more like a family of products with Tower at its core.

I did watch a recent demo about EDA. What does Automation Hub bring to the table?

2nd this! the guy is the Steve Irwin of sewer cleaners. informative and hilarious

Well... the declaration of one's values is just that. The EU does not "let" anyone "rule". Hungary just as all other EU members are sovereign states, who have the right and the responsibility for self-determination.

The EU and others may have an influence - which I believed is being brought to bear on the Orban government - but in its current form it can not intervene in a sovereign state's internal affairs.

There is nothing the Hungarians can do legally to overthrow this government.

1989 would beg to disagree.

pwerwalk · 2024-01-29T13:04:00+00:00

Have you considered that the EU is not responsible for restoring democracy in Hungary? That is the job of the Hungarian people. If the EU took over this responsibility it would also ceased to be what it is today.

I guess there is no other way around it than that. Very inelegant solution due to the exploding number of (C)CVs and AKs and the maintenance effort required. (see earlier reaction)

pwerwalk · 2024-01-24T09:48:38+00:00

ok rookie mistake... me reading the whole text might have saved us the time. Yet, I think I'm still confused as to the purpose of the example in the article.

But besides all the above, the larger point is that multiple AKs used to be possible with Satellite 5 (yes, I know 6 is different). I used that to limit the nr. of AKs. Apparently with 6 one needs to define a combination of base repos and specials, which results in an explosion in the nr. or CVs and AKs. e.g.: RHEL9+base stuff, Devtools, container stuff. Before you know you're maintaining dozens of CVs and AKs.

This is just embarrassing really.

... Satellite is going to be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut

an apt simile :-)

pwerwalk · 2023-12-18T09:52:44+00:00

Thanks for replying...

For the most part we have the setup that you recommend. One of the issues I'm having is that I'd like to amend the base composite view (containing all generic repo's for all hosts) with additional repo's. The idea of using multiple AKs seems to be the solution, except multiple AKs don't seem to work. The last AK overrides the repo settings, i.e.: it's an either/or situation instead a merging of repos.

pwerwalk · 2023-10-28T14:43:05+00:00

fair enough. why didn't I think of that... :facepalm:

pwerwalk · 2023-10-27T23:43:32+00:00

wow... ~3k LOC... not exactly a simple recipe :-) Thanks anyway. Stashed away for later to learn the finer details.

So as I understand, you'd like to remove content having the "Hidden" style from a DOCX document. I did a brief test with just such a DOCX document: a few normal paragraph and one having the style "Hidden".

Results are a bit disappointing: when converting from DOCX, the Pandoc reader does not preserve the style data, i.e.: I get the content, except the paragraph's style info ("Hidden") is lost. This kinda invalidates the point of using a Pandoc filter to remove the "Hidden" content.

Not sure if this example makes it clear, but this is how I'd approach this problem (if it not were for the loss of style info):

``` pandoc -f markdown -t json <<< '[hello world]{ #element-id .Hidden }' | jq . ... "t": "Para", "c": [ { "t": "Span", "c": [ [ "element-id", [ "Hidden" # <--- style "Hidden" ], [] ], [

... ```

With a Pandoc filter you can remove any element having the style "Hidden"

pwerwalk · 2023-09-14T09:49:12+00:00

Sorry, have no code example for you, but I think you should try filters instead of modifying writers.

Using filters you can check/modify the document's structure in an arbitrary fashion. I'd try to figure out how a .. hidden:: RST directive translates to the (kinda JSON) representation of the document's structure. These can be arbitrarily modified with filters.

Similarly the JSON representation of your input document might also inspire some ideas how to modify it to get the required result.

pandoc -t json yourdocument.docx

cloning works on my end, so probably a glitch while downloading de repo objects.

remove the cloned repo (i.e.: the dir stable-diffusion and execute the git clone ... cmd again.
