Currently, way we distribute ssh keys within QAM on our testing infrustructure is a bit cumbersome - maybe we should try to (ab)use existing salt used by our internal infra team.

INSTRUCTION: A remote reminder connected this server with WIFI module(Maybe not just a reminder ).

Since my mailbox has migrated to office365 mailbox a couple of weeks ago, I tried to optimize my tool chain to sync my mail and calendar and integrate to the gnome-shell (calendar, notification). So far I am comfortable with such a set and gonna use 2-3 hours in hackweek to summarize the practice of combining the following tools in written format:

As a daily user of the Plasma desktop this Hackweek is a perfect opportunity to make my first contribution(s) to it! Feel free to join me as a fellow beginner or mentor!

It ain't rocket science, it ain't thrilling, it's just useful.

Trimatik MC is an older heating control from Viessmann. It has no supported digital interface for remote access, but I found at least two ways to get access to sensor data like various temperatures and state of relay contacts. One way is to use the so called remote control the other use the clock timer. This project will use the latter way, because the hardware adaption is much easier and and all four timer channels could be controlled as well. Remote access will be done via an ESP32, which emulates the clock timer and gets/pushes data via WIFI.

The current kplex_monitor repo needs to be reorganized so that it can be installed from scratch on another PI using ansible

Rationale:

The current GUI of FriCAS is ancient and difficult to use. I plan to improve that by using modern GUI frameworks, at least to make a working proof-of-concept demo to show this idea works.

Rationale:

Check if it is possible to create a python application to aid autofocus micro adjustment on a DSLR. There are some commercial applications that are capable of that, such as Reikan FoCal (https://www.reikanfocal.com).

Following a FOSDEM presentation on Angr for binary analysis, I started packaging it in OBS.

...because openQA isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

I want to be able to create some 3D printing models for 3D printers. So starting to search for a good introduction and try it out...

Stream Radio device - It is built with Raspberry Pi Zero WH

Goal is to implement a rados backend in drivers/nvme/target. That will allow the NVMe target implementation to directly access Rados objects (ie export RADOS objects as namespaces), allowing third-party applications and/or OS to use NVMe-over-Fabrics to access a ceph cluster.

As the automation became a standard within Maintenance QA work, I would like to became more familiar with the whole magic behind. Plan is to go through internal docu a try to setup openQA and write some simple tests (and adjust the docu once there are any gaps):

or how to replace git push heroku master and cf push with Kubernetes

This is my attempt to catch up on the field of machine learning. In order to not "waste" time of exercising with dummy data the Security team came up with a couple of interesting questions:

What is ResourceSpace

In the other day, there were questions about to migrate high availability solution into OpenStack.

Since quite a while I'm interested in learning the programming language golang. I want to use the time to get a basic understanding and maybe realize a small project with the gained knowledge.

I use my Raspberry Pi 3B as a router. I have seen this crash:

People are interested in Linux on Windows via WSL, especially given the new fully virtualized Linux kernel in WSL 2. It's interesting to know whether registered SUSE installations might be running in WSL as opposed to other Microsoft virtualization platforms, but the current approach taken by SUSEConnect (the client for SUSE Customer Center) does not permit this.

My goal is build on Alberto's work on "yomi" and the new Salt-based virtualization management features that Cedric has contributed, then combine them with a Redfish prototype to do the following from one (ideally idempotent) Salt state (orchestration state if required):

The plan is to implement a safe path resolution library for Linux to avoid the plentiful numbers of security vulnerabilities that have been seen in the wild related to path resolution race conditions and various other attacks. I've been working on kernel-space solutions but even if they were merged, it is difficult to use them safely directly. So this library intends to provide simple wrappers that everyone can use.

This is a task to update current WSL-Launcher (which can be already buildt in OBS) with latest-greatest upstream code https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL-DistroLauncher

Currently it's pretty difficult to create tests for some specific package. So something like TravisCI for OBS would be good.

Having done only very little with openQA in the past I would like to learn more about it. I would like to start writing a test suite for profanity.
