Ready-to-use virtual clusters

There's a new article in the #Keycloak blog about federated client authentication, where you rely on an external provider (like a #Kubernetes cluster with service account token, or a generic #SPIFFE

Wrote a post about setting up the smb csi driver in your #homelab #kubernetes cluster and using talosctl to back up your #talos etcd to a NAS.

#Kubernetes 101:
Do not mix your tools. It ends up in a mess.
E.g. running `kubens my-namespace` within `kubie` results in the temporary config file suddenly containing `namespace; !!null my-namespace`. Like whaaat... gotta use `kubie ns` instead.

In the context of a CPanel Softaculous-installed Nextcloud, what could it possibly mean that, regardless how I set the certificate through #CPanel, ak.modusresearch.com returns with the following clearly bogus certificate:
Common Name: #Kubernetes #Ingress Controller Fake Certificate
Organization: #AcmeCo
Not Before: Sat, 28 Feb 2026 15:37:53 GMT ?????
DNS Name: ingress.local

FYI all, portainer is giving away 3 node business licenses. #kubernetes support since the last time I visited their site, so I'm interested in checking how well that interacts with #talos.
Some of my #homelab machines currently just run a few containers in #docker_compose stacks for services my #homeassistant server is using like node red and I've been using #portainer for simple things like checking status or restarting things without having to ssh into those workers. Most of those containers are going to get migrated into my #k8s cluster, so it'll be interesting to see how well it works as a quick web interface.
