A UniFi restore that reports no errors, restarts cleanly, and lets you log in with your admin account, but somehow leaves you with an empty configuration, is a special kind of frustrating. That's the short version of what it took to move from a HostiFi-hosted controller to a local UniFi Express 7 (UX7). It should have been a cable swap and a restore. Instead it turned into a two-attempt debugging exercise, followed by a workaround involving a throwaway Docker controller and some direct MongoDB open-heart surgery.

HomeLab secrets usually start simple: one `.env` file next to a Docker Compose stack. But over time, those secrets spread into GitLab variables, deployment scripts, copied folders, backups, notes, and places where they should not live.

Minimal container images often ship without curl, wget, or any HTTP client at all. Bash can open a TCP socket through /dev/tcp, which is enough to write a tiny HTTP/1.1 request by hand for quick checks.

What am I doing in this post? My Goal: To build custom ESX install ISOs for the Dell OptiPlex 3050 Micro which I am using as workload domain home-lab nodes. We will cover ESXi 8.0 U3, ESX 9.0, and …

For a long time I wanted a piece of software that usedFirecrackerto create MicroVMs on my Linux hosts. It seemed like it would be really useful for vulnerability research and testing features that wer

Docker ships with an undocumented API for spawning isolated microVMs. Here's how to use it for more than just AI agents.

Yes, plain Docker Compose can still run production workloads in 2026—if you close the operational gaps it leaves: cleanup, healing, image pinning, socket security, and updates.

In this video, I’m taking a look at Dockhand, a Docker management platform focused on safer remote Docker management, smart updates, and vulnerability-aware update workflows.

If you want a reverse proxy that gets out of your way, Caddy is one of the easiest places to start. In this video, I test it in a practical homelab setup: serving a static site, proxying Docker apps, getting HTTPS working, and showing where the simplicity is real and where the advanced stuff starts.

Boilerplates 0.2.0 is here, and this update changes quite a lot about how my templates work! In this video, I show you what changed in Boilerplates 0.2.0, why the app and template library are now split into separate repositories, how the new `template.json` format works, why the custom template delimiters are useful, and how the improved variable system makes generated Docker Compose stacks easier to customize. We also look at one of the most useful new features: remote generation over SSH, so you can generate template files directly on a server instead of creating them locally and copying everything over manually. And finally, I quickly explain the new Swarm module and what it means for future Boilerplates features.

I recently ran into a claim: Docker Compose is outdated and K3s is the king for my 1Gb VPS. At the same time, docker-compose.py is effectively deprecated, with Compose now shipped as a built-in docker compose command. That alone is not a problem, but it raised a reasonable question: has the role of Docker Compose actually changed, or is this just noise from the Kubernetes church?

What are these distroless images, really? Why are they needed? What's the difference between a container image built from a distroless base and a container image built from scratch? Let's take a deeper look.
