Building openSUSE Mirror(s) in Mauritius (osc25)

At oSC23, I [presented](https://invidious.privacyredirect.com/watch?v=abNBhLug2Ls) the challenges that we, a small community of openSUSE users, faced back home when building our first mirror in Mauritius. Two years later, I'm sharing updates on how we're expanding further and adding a second mirror in Mauritius to host more mirror content for the local community. We still face challenges, which I will share during this talk, and I hope it triggers a discussion around how we can further optimize and support mirrors for smaller economies. If we get things right, it can be a template for other countries...

Wie kommen wir hier raus? (fusion25)

Es gibt sie, die guten Lösungen für (Klima-)Gerechtigkeit und echte Nachhaltigkeit, auch wenn einige rechte, alte Männer gerade alles tun, um mit aller Gewalt den Deckel drauf zu halten. Maja Göpel, Nachhaltigkeits- und Transformationsforscherin, ist eine, die ihr alle kennen solltet! Autorin zahlreicher Bücher, Forscherin und Beraterin. Immer ist sie mit der Frage beschäftigt: Wie können wir das “andere”, bessere Leben gestalten? They exist: good solutions for (climate) justice and genuine sustainability, even if some right-wing old men are currently doing everything in their power to keep them under wraps. Maja Göpel, sustainability and transformation...

lau diba oi (fusion25)

“lau diba oi„ (Motu für “Ich kenne Dich") dreht sich um das pazifische Konzept von Mana – den spirituellen Zweck, den alles hat. Sinn und Zugehörigkeit – tief in der Kultur und den Vorfahren verwurzelt, befreit von Vorstellungen, die wir von uns selbst haben, mit wiederentdecktem Selbstbewusstsein. Mit Spoken Word, Tanz, experimentellem Sound und Streichinstrumenten führt uns die BiPoC-FLINTA-Gruppe auf eine Reise zu uns selbst. Language: EN Translation: NO Recording: YES “When I follow the river to its source, the place where I originally belong is myself. Who is she? Who was she? Who will she...

Testing Containers with Python and pytest (osc25)

To ease the pain of testing container images, we’ve developed the `pytest_container` plugin for [pytest](https://pytest.org/). The plugin makes it possible to use pytest to perform tests on containers and software inside containers. You don’t have to take care of pulling images, building them, or picking ports on the host. You just describe your container setup and pass it to a test function. In return, the plugin gives you a connection to the container. Using the connection, you can verify the container’s state using the [testinfra](https://testinfra.readthedocs.io/) python framework. The plugin even cleans up after itself when you’re done. In short,...

Geographically Distributed Kubernetes Clusters (osc25)

Distributed compute at scale is a bit complex back home in Mauritius - cloud service providers are literally an ocean away, and local policies have a history of hindering technological progress. To "bring the cloud home", so to speak, a small team of tech enthusiasts decided to build a Kubernetes (K3s) cluster distributed across the country, in a bid to drive down costs while boosting resilience and availability. This session goes over the challenges of setting up such a geographically distributed cluster on baremetal hardware, including fighting latency, connection issues, dynamic IPs, and distributed storage, all...

An Introduction to WebAssembly with SDL and C++ (Or porting Audio Production software to run in your browser). (osc25)

With the types of products and projects that we regularly work on many of us don't get alot of exposure to new fancy technology, this talk aims to give a quick introduction to one of these topics, web assembly. As some background, For the last year i've been helping to port Little Piggy Tracker (LGPT) a clone of the LSDJ audio software for Game Boy to various handheld devices. At the same time I saw a conference talk that was an introduction to web assembly, this prompted me to ask the ever dangerous question "how...

Beyond GitOps: Building Intelligent Drift Detection and Auto-Remediation in ArgoCD (osc25)

Let's discover how to extend ArgoCD's capabilities by building a sophisticated drift detection and auto-remediation system. We'll demonstrate how to combine ArgoCD's Resource Hooks, Custom Health Checks, and the ApplicationSet controller to create an intelligent system that not only detects configuration drift but automatically resolves it based on defined policies. Through live coding, we'll build a custom controller that monitors for unauthorized changes, implements smart rollback decisions, and provides real-time notifications. Learn how to leverage ArgoCD's API to implement advanced reconciliation patterns, track drift metrics, and create audit trails of all remediation actions. Perfect...

Kalpa Desktop, Where it is, and Where it's going (osc25)

# Kalpa Desktop is a Plasma desktop derived from MicroOS, and Tumbleweed, providing a immutable system base, with a containerized workflow, through distrobox and podman, and Desktop applications via Flathub. ## Kalpa grew out of the initial work by Richard Brown, with MicroOS Desktop, but has diverged over the past three years. ## Kalpa's focus is on providing users with: - A well-tested and current Plasma-Wayland desktop - A minimal installation, without a bunch of applications you may not want or need - Robust stability, through the use of atomic updates, no more broken updates - Just a "Damn Good™"...
