Juliet singt Songs über queere Selbstverteidigung mit ihren Fingernägeln oder das sich Verlieren in der passiven Rolle einer Lovestory. Mit etwas naiven Harmonien thematisiert sie dabei ambivalente Gefühle und arrangiert sie minimalistisch. Indierocksound und Ambientästhetik suchen Schutz in radikaler Verletzlichkeit. Kraft aus Brüchigkeit, Öffnung zum Anderen und  neue Konstellationen von Gemeins...

Es herrscht wieder Krieg in Europa, und die Lager formieren sich neu. Nukleare Drohungen werden ausgesprochen, Milliarden für die Rüstung mobilisiert.

Dabei muss mensch nicht mal pazifistisch sein, um bei Massenvernichtungswaffen die Linie zu ziehen. Leo ist...

When dealing with heterogeneous Linux deployments, a common challenge is developing a strategy to maintain customizations for various needs (such as security settings, default features, etc.). With the cloud, this is even more important as automation helps enable greater success over the long term. This talk will introduce the KIWI image build tool and show how to use it to effectively maintain op...

The installation process of whole compute clusters tends to be error prone and struggling work. Warewulf[1] aims to make this work more reliable and fast. This achieved by using containers to install the compute nodes.

The exponentially growing **AI/ML** and **LLMs** advancements bring concerns about privacy, as there is a risk of data exposure to online LLMs service providers. Setting up **LLMs in-house** requires a **high computational cost** which is a major obstacle for businesses across various sectors such as Retail, Healthcare, Finance, etc. These industries seek to leverage the power of LLMs to drive **p...

Apps are made of execution threads. On which CPU should they run? When should they start? For how long should they execute? The CPU scheduler is the part of the kernel in charge of these decisions. What does it mean to write your own scheduler? Is that even possible? This talk will show you how to create your own CPU schedulers, using an unofficial kernel package for openSUSE Tumbleweed, and some...

Software development without Linux is no longer possible within automotive environment. Therefore Volkswagen Group IT created and maintains a Linux distribution for our developers.

NeuVector is a open source container security platform. Key strengths are vulnerability and runtime scanning. I demonstrate in this talk how you ensure that only container images without a detected vulnerability move to the next stage in your Pipeline. How you define the baseline of allowed activities of your application. And how you can block the deployment into production if an unexpected behavi...

Why is central logging so important? Convenience, availability and security. Convenience, as you have a single place to check instead of many. Availability, as you can check log messages, even if the sending host is unavailable. Security, as logs leave hosts as soon as they are produced, so an attacker has no chance to modify them. Developers, operators, and security have a single view of the whol...

openSUSE is a project with a long proud heritage, however at it's heart we've always had a recurring problem. openSUSE is not SUSE. This session will investigate the problems that the Project and Companies shared names have caused both over the years. Assumptions will be challenged, expectations will be broken, and the session will kick off a grass roots effort from a number of community members t...

Am 9. Oktober jährt sich der antisemitische, rassistische und misogyne Anschlag von Halle (und Wiedersdorf) zum 5. Mal. Jana L. und Kevin Schwarze wurden dabei brutal ermordet.

IoT application developers that need to leverage the emerging cloud-edge continuum are faced with a number of challenges. Many of them derive from the limitations imposed by resource-constrained edge devices, infrastructure heterogeneity, and the need to meet criteria such as performance, resilience, security, data sovereignty, and energy efficiency. To overcome these obstacles, the EU project COG...

Today we will talk about Linux Mirrors. What do people use them for? Why they could use a (tiny bit) of modernization? What are the security implications? Where are we now and where do we plan to go?
