No christmas stuff before december 15th!

The Radio 1 show Peeters & Pichal is keeping track of early christmas stuff appearing. The first things they did was opening a hot-line where people could report early sightings of christmas crap happening.

Now they’ve started (in cooperation with Humo) a sticker-action: No christmas stuff before december 15th!
Geen kerstgedoe voor 15 december!

It’s an action I support - It’s excessive that stores have already been putting up their christmas stuff since end of september!

Using IPv6 outside of Docker with Docker

I recently activated IPv6 on my Netcup VPS, and in the process of setting it up on all my LXCs I noticed that for “reasons” the IPv6 default route would vanish after starting Docker (switching it all over to Podman is on my TODO list), effectively breaking the IPv6 connectivity on this LXC.

Enabling native IPv6 on Proxmox and LXC using SDN

In my original deployment of Proxmox on my VPS I only enabled IPv4, and I was using socat to forward traffic from the IPv6 address of the host to the internal IPv4 addresses of the containers. Not ideal, since this masks the external IP addresses, and also creates some latency and additional CPU load when processing IPv6.
