```
$ docker pull debian
$ docker run -it debian /bin/bash
docker# ip tunnel add ipsec0 local 192.168.11.1 remote 0.0.0.0 mode vti key 42
add tunnel "ip_vti0" failed: No such device
```
A container run with either `--privileged` or `--cap-add=ALL` _can_ create the tunnel device.
What privilege or capability is needed?
It looks like `--cap-add=NET_ADMIN` is sufficient.
See `capabilities(7)`.

> If docker supports joining any network namespace, then network topology could be left to higher level orchestration. This allows for flexibility in docker deployments. The user could setup the network by creating a new network namespace via ip netns, customize as required and then just pass it to docker with something like --net=netns:/var/run/netns/mycustomnet1.

Ah, but maybe see `docker-network(1)`.
`systemd-nspawn` makes this all a little easier.
Brisk twenty-minute walk at lunch.
Saw a bunch of robins.

> This thing knows what it is doing. Funhouses are not set piece dungeons, even though they have lots (and LOTS) of little self-contained rooms. They are not challenge dungeons where some higher power is testing the mettle of the party. They are not riddle dungeons or trap dungeons. They are a curious mix of things that make sense and not. Most of all, I think they are tend to be Push Your Luck dungeons, or Temptation dungeons.

> There is a certain type of … Gleeful D&D. In this style everyone is grinning and everyone is on on the secret. Imagine a room empty but for a skeleton on a throne .. and it’s holding a big fat ruby in its hands. Fuck it, maybe you even have to put your hand in a mouth of something to reach it. The DM knows that the room is a set up. The players all know that the room is a setup. The DM knows that the players know … and the players know this also. And everyone is sitting around grinning at each other. “Well, You wanna stick your hand in and grab it?” says the DM. “Looks like it might give you enough XP to … Level.” This isn’t really adversarial D&D, but really everyone kind of knows what’s gonna go down. That mouth is gonna close and that skeleton WILL be animating. Push your luck, take a chance, there’s not really hidden information. That’s a good dungeon room. And a good funhouse dungeon is stuffed full of them. And this is a good funhouse.

> There’s an art to writing them to get them right. Imaginative situations, clear setups and consequences pretty clearly implied. These are done right. They are mostly pretty simple. Open a door, set a gold statues with ruby eyes floating towards you. Oh course, it’s got a floating clear ooze surrounding it that’s initially hard to see … but, of course, everyone knows SOMETHING is up with it. It’s just a matter of what. This dungeon executes over and over again. Big big fan.

> It turns out that bombs and cartoons grew up together.
>
> […] those bombs were specifically mortar bombs that used gunpowder, now referred to as black powder, as an explosive. “Gunpowder was invented by the Chinese around 1000 AD and it reached Europe in the 1300s, where it was highly developed until after the civil war,” said Kelly. “The Civil War was the last great gunpowder war.” Ignited, uncontained gunpowder will burn, but for it to explode the gas pressure needed to be built up in a sealed container. Often, a spherical one made the most sense, since the shape was aerodynamic and could be made of two halves with one seal, instead of a box with many sides.
>
> They were also dark, being made of cast iron or other metals, both to ensure sturdiness and to maximize shrapnel after the explosion. The only thing inaccurate about the cartoon depiction of bombs is the string wick, says Kelly. “Fuses were made of wood and they’d be drilled down through the center, and they’d be packed very solidly with gunpowder that would burn at a predictable rate,” he says, “The idea of a string fuse coming out of the bomb is really a fantasy.”
>
> If the Civil War was the last gunpowder war, given the sheer number of Americans involved, it seems likely that many would have some familiarity with an explosive of that kind. But another aspect of American culture helped to popularize that image—editorial cartoons.
>
> By the mid-19th century, many papers across the country featured editorial cartoons. The most famous was probably Harper’s Weekly, often considered the most widely read publication during the Civil War. Their illustrations featured caricatures of politicians, depictions of the treatment of slaves, and of course, battles. In one cartoon, a smoking bomb with the face of who appears to be General Scott is lobbed toward Jefferson Davis. The bomb is round with a skinny, string wick sticking out of the top. Comics like that made it pretty clear just what a bomb looked like.
Ten-minute walk after I got home.
