They did exist at one point at least, so that on its own isn't conclusive.

Personally I upgraded to the Premium plan after a few uses and I felt like I didn't need any other tools. I have a Tilt, and I enjoy having the data recorded with each batch.

I find myself working on recipes using different computers or on a mobile, so I ended up with Brewfather.

I tried for a bit to sync my Beersmith files between machines, but eventually they got corrupted. Fair, since it was never meant to do that.

It supports teleportation movement (where you point at a place and you're transported there instantly), which is way better on the 'ol inner ear.

I agree, the Montreal Protocol was a fantastic example of international cooperation.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but we're at the point where one company can undo all that good work unfortunately.

I've been running all my apps on my NAS as docker containers, but some get 'stuck' occasionally, requiring a reboot of the whole machine. Using the NAS was mostly out of convenience.

I also had an old laptop running k3s, hosting a few stateless services.

This week I picked up three Wyse 5070 devices and started setting up a more permanent Kubernetes cluster. I decided to use Talos Linux, which is a steep learning curve, but should hopefully reduce the amount of ongoing work for upgrades. I'll be deploying everything with FluxCD this time around too.

I've stumbled a bit with the synology-csi-driver. It didn't work with Talos out of the box, but turns out the latest commits have a fix. The only thing remaining before I can start porting the apps over is figuring out how to spin up a new CA and generate client certificates for mTLS. I currently do that in Vault but it seems like something cert-manager could handle going forward.

I've been using this blueprint to do what you've described and I'm quite happy with it.

One thing I learned - brew a beer style you enjoy. I naively tried to brew a brown ale for my first two attempts, solely because it was recommended as one of the easier styles to tackle as a beginner. I wasn't fond of either, and it put me off the hobby for a while. Then a couple of years later I brewed a clone of an IPA I knew and enjoyed and it stuck! I had a clear idea of what I wanted to improve the next time... and the next, and the next. If you do enjoy brown ales, then all the better!

Keep chasing that dragon! 🍻
