So… I have a couple 40-core Xeon servers in my homelab. What do I need to do to trigger these higher? I can Argo Workflow jobs that spin up VMs and execute a webhook / etc to whatever is needed. Let’s get that needle at least past the fisher price of OS’s MacOS.

I’m pretty much immutable across the board on all of my servers and workstations (laptop included). Most my servers are openSUSE Leap Micro and MicroOS. Run MicroOS on the desktop side as well.

Honestly …haven’t had any issues and the maintenance of it is fairly hands off. Few of mine are k8s nodes so that combined with the reboot mgr + transactional-update has been awesome. I spend less time maintaining my homelabs / desktops and eases my focus in just getting work done.

I’ve only had to roll back a couple of times (mainly self-inflicted), so it’s nice having that capability. A lot of this though can be accomplished in a non-immutable world as well.

This… bpg provider seems to check most boxes and I’ve had less quirks than Telmates. My biggest gripe with most / all of them is the lack of cluster support.
