Unlike FujiFilm, Sony doesn’t often release updated firmware for its cameras. For that reason, I’m almost never bothered to check if there is new one available for my Sony Alpha 6500 (a6500). However, out of the blue, I decided to just have a quick look up and found out that Sony has release v1.05 firmware for the A6500 since February last year. The firmware on my camera was v1.04. The most notable updates for the v1.05 firmware includes: ...
This post briefly explains how to install Ansible on a FreeBSD host. I’m going to install Ansible in a virtual environment using Python 3. (If you still use Python 2, it’s time to start migrating to Python 3 now.) $ sudo pkg install python36 $ mkdir ~/dev/python3-venv $ python3 -m venv ~/dev/python3-venv/ansible Next, activate the Python venv (ansible), and start installing Ansible using pip: $ source ~/dev/python3-venv/ansible $ pip install ansible You may or may not need to update pip module as I did. In my case, Python complains that I have older version of pip. To update pip, just run: ...

Again this is a quick note to explain myself how to set a kvm (domain/vm) autostart when the server boots up. To list autostart domains: virsh list --autostart To set a domian, e.g. dhcp1, to autostart: virsh autostart dhcp1 To disable autostart for a domain (e.g. named dhcp1): virsh autostart dhcp1 --disable Ref: KVM: Start a Virtual Machine / Guest At Boot Time
When Fedora release kernel 4.20.*, the ZFS 0.7.12 could no longer compiled. Accoriding to the ZFS release page at Github zfs-0.7.12 is only compartible iwth kernels 2.6.32 - 4.19. At first I was going to just wait for the 0.8.0 release, and continue to use kernel 4.19. However, Fedora keeps releasing the updates of kernel 4.20. As of this writing, the current version of the kernel on Fedora 29 is 4.20.6-200. At the same time, zfs-0.8.0 is still not yet released. ...
