Switching from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop on WSL2: Solving the Missing docker-credential-desktop.exe Error

Switching from Docker Desktop to Rancher Desktop on WSL2: Solving the Missing docker-credential-desktop.exe Error I’ve been happily running Kamal inside WSL2 on my home Windows desktop for a while. My original setup included an older Docker Desktop installation. Recently, I wanted to replicate this environment on a different machine, but I discovered that Docker Desktop had changed their licensing terms. Technically, I’m still covered by the new licensing terms, but I decided to try Rancher Desktop instead. Installing Rancher Desktop on WSL2 Installation was straightforward. I installed Rancher Desktop, configured it to integrate with WSL2, and disabled Kubernetes (since I don’t currently need it). My plan was to continue using the Docker CLI inside WSL2 alongside Rancher Desktop for container management. The Authentication Error However, when I was in WSL and tried to authenticate (for example, with Docker Hub via docker login), I ran into this error: ``` failed to store...

Ruby weirdness

This week I'm trying to learn some Ruby (I want to use Chef or Puppet) and this caught my attention: " If you happen to define a method in your subclass that has the same name as a private method in the superclass, you will have inadvertently overridden the superclass's internal utility method, and this will almost certainly cause unintended behavior." Reference:  http://rubylearning.com/satishtalim/ruby_access_control.html How can they call it encapsulation and object-oriented design? Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something, but how on earth can this be acceptable. Now you have to look through the super class source every time it gets updated to make sure there are no conflicts with THE PRIVATE methods. Or you have to get rid of private methods for super classes and separate them into helper classes instead. Hopefully everyone will forget about inheritance and use composition instead :-)

Proxmox Remote administration via VNC

Image
A few times I've needed to communicate via VNC, for instance when I was changing network configuration and couldn't use SSH or when I tried out Windows. Communicating with VNC to Proxmox wasn't so easy for me as it seemed in the documentation. Basically I never really got the " /etc/inetd.conf " thing to work, but this made it work from my local machine. This blog post is an alternative to the openbsd-inetd solution In the following: 2.2.2.2 is the IP of my Proxmox host 100 is the VM-ID you picked when you created the virtual machine ======================================================================== ssh -f -L 25901:127.0.0.1:5910 root@ 2.2.2.2 'nc -l -p 5910 -c "qm vncproxy 100 "'; "/Applications/TigerVNC Viewer 1.2.0.app/Contents/MacOS/TigerVNC Viewer" localhost:25901 ======================================================================== Please note that I only got TigerVNC to work, since all the other VNCs ha...
