Now I use #Tailscale to gain access to my NAS systems I've now looked at improving web search security. I've been using the MAAPL web search engine for a while, which acts as a front end for the #SearXNG system.
To improve that further I now don't use MAAPL at all, but host my own SearXNG search engine on the NAS. Easy enough to do:
• Reinstalled Docker / Container Manager (even though I'm not a fan of it)
• Installed the SearXNG container
• Reconfigured the NAS Firewall to allow #Docker to access the web
• Replaced the IP address based search page with my Tailscale domain
• Put my search engine query page in place in Brave / Vivaldi
And as simple as that I can access my private search engine from any of my Tailscale enabled devices.

Второй уровень автономности ИИ: агент сам управляет облаком и администрирует ВМ по SSH
Я решил проверить следующий уровень — может ли ИИ не советовать, а выполнять действия сам. В этом эксперименте ИИ: управлял Yandex Cloud через yc сам создавал ВМ и Managed PostgreSQL сам подключался по SSH к ВМ администрировал сервер поднимал WordPress в Docker и подключал его к базе, созданной в облаке Без Terraform. Без Ansible. Без ручного выполнения команд человеком. Это не туториал и не реклама. Это практическое исследование второго уровня автономности ИИ , где агент реально работает в инфраструктуре, а человек остаётся в контуре управления.

Removing #docker for static website in favor of #rsync brought deployment time from 3minutes to 3seconds 🫡

Making the Most of Your Docker Hardened Images Enterprise Trial – Part 2

AMD dropped ROCm support for Radeon VII (gfx906) at v6.2.4. I wanted to run local LLMs on it anyway.
Found a community-maintained image on r/LocalLLaMA that packages ROCm 7.1 with llama.cpp for gfx906. One docker pull later, I had llama.cpp + Ollama + Qdrant + Open WebUI running on "unsupported" hardware.
Docker Hub is a library of solved problems.

Kicking off 2026 with a reading list focused on understanding how things work, not just using them. 📚
I’m revisiting Python internals, exploring Linux under the hood, digging into Docker beyond Dockerfile snippets, and even building a large language model from scratch.
Curious? Check out the full list here:

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.
