Hey my #RedHat #CentOS friends. Is there a Cloud image for x86_64 that is compatible with EFI?
Images on https://cloud.centos.org/centos/9-stream/x86_64/images/CentOS-Stream-GenericCloud-9-latest.x86_64.qcow require BIOS boot mode.
Anyone?

On one hand, seeing how many people are impacted by taking down #CentOS 7 repositories and moving them to vault, I wonder whether we should have a different procedure for the EOL...
On the other, seeing how many people are impacted by taking down centos 7 repositories, looks like it was a right move. If people are still surprised and haven't checked what does EOL means for their systems in advance, it means we need this wake-up call.
Yes, it has impacted many people. It is a good thing.

What's the best OS for a server? https://mastodon.social/@geerlingguy/112311377807798463
It depends on what you're doing with it, but I'd say #Devuan and its parent #Debian should be near the top of your list. I'd also consider #FreeBSD and #DragonflyBSD.
I know that "Debian" is an ancient Sumerian word meaning "old", but when I used the former #CentOS bug-for-bug clone of #Red_Hat #RHEL, its packages were even older. I had to find 3rd party repos that had more-current versions of various libraries and applications. (Examples: I neded newer versions of PHP, php-intl, the internationalization library that php-intl depends upon in order to run almost anything because RHEL freezes the major versions of such software for years.)
Which makes sense when you're paying for stability ... you probably aren't installing current versions of $APPLICATION, so the language in which it is written probably needs to stay old, just with security patches. -

Earlier today at #almalinux we patched CVE-2023-38403 in iperf3 and released it prior to anyone else in the EL-ecosystem. We promptly submitted PRs with #centos and #fedora.
A lot was learned during this process so we can nail down the processes of doing our own patches while contributing upstream and ultimately deliver on our promises from https://almalinux.org/blog/future-of-almalinux/

Red Hat on Open Source:
"You can decide for yourself whether downstream rebuilds are valuable for you and it’s your call to make it easy, or not.
Simply rebuilding code, without adding value or changing it in any way, represents a real threat to open source companies everywhere. This is a real threat to open source, and one that has the potential to revert open source back into a hobbyist- and hackers-only activity." #redhat #centos #opensource

I get the feeling too many people are sleeping on CentOS Stream because of how the CentOS #Linux EOL thing went down.
I mean sure, the messaging wasn't great but it happened and it is what it is. Don't let that detract from the greatness of the #CentOS Stream project in its own right and as a collaboration point for all the #RHEL based distros.
The gravity seems lost on most that for the first time ever the RHEL development process happens in the open. That's amazing. I love it. #community
