vEMan - [v]Mware [E]SX [Man]ager provides a GUI for managing ESX servers natively from within your Linux desktop without the need to use Windows vSphere® anymore! Support vEMan development for v2.0 by gofundme! http://www.gofundme.com/vEMan Why I started vEMan? Because I hate it to start my Windows VM to manage ESX(i) servers ;o) vEMan is (maybe) not needed if you use vCenter 5.x: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/2005377 --> vSphere >= v5 has a "web client" BUT keep in mind that there are caveats: Not all features are available in the web client AND it can connect to vCenters only (see: http://kb.vmware.com/kb/1006095) - ESX(i) v3.x or 4.x? - v5.x - but no vCenter? - you want a native Linux vSphere client? Then try vEMan! ------- vEMan is not published or pronounced by VMware Inc. vEMan is an OpenSource project from a private person without any warranty or claim to bother VMware Inc.

Even a CPU has a little firmware inside. Since a lot of years it is possible to update it to fix little or bigger bugs. Usually this operation is done while updating your motherboard's BIOS, and the update is permanent. But thanks to the architecture of the linux kernel, we can update it at the last version every time we boot our OS. This is a really fast operation brought to you by microcode.ctl (in Ubuntu), and it permits to avoid waiting for an updated closed-source BIOS to solve bugs; it downloads the last microcode for your Intel or AMD CPU every time you update your system, and it installs it on every OS startup. This little script is designed to give you a way to see what's happening with CPU updates. On every startup, a popup notification throught libnotify shows you the old revision of the firmware, the newer version applied while booting and the releasing date of the last update. It works on Ubuntu linux, but you can help me to port this script on other linux distribution

Your cloud SI is smart, but it can't touch your computer. Homing Pigeon fixes that: tell your SI to complete a task and it will do it on your machine (Linux/macOS/FreeBSD/Windows), and the results return so the SI can iterate: run the tests, read the failure, fix, repeat. Think "GitHub self-hosted runner, but the control plane is email." Python 3.9+, standard library only, no dependencies. Jobs are HMAC-SHA-384-signed JSON carried by email (protocol v2); a local Oracle model reviews what comes back before your SI sees it. By design it executes signed jobs with the runner account's privileges: run it on a machine you can afford to lose.
