So when I ask Let’s Encrypt for a cert, I ask for *.int.teuto.icu instead of specifically jellyfin.int.teuto.icu, that way I can use the same cert for any internally running service. Mostly I use SSL on everything to make browsers complain less. There isn’t much security benefit on a local network. I suppose it makes harder to spoof on an external network, but I don’t think that’s a serious threat for a home net. I used to use home.lan for all of my services, but that has the drawback of redirecting to a search by default on most browsers. I have my tailscale exit node running on my router and it just works with SSL like anything else.

I use a central nginx container to redirect to all my other services using a wildcard let’s encrypt cert for my internal domain from acme.sh and I access it all externally using a tailscale exit node. The only publicly accessible service that I run is my Lemmy instance. That uses a cloudflare tunnel and is isolated in it’s own vlan.

TBH I’m still not really happy having any externally accessible service at all. I know enough about security to know that I don’t know enough to secure against much anything. I’ve been thinking about moving the Lemmy instance to a vps so it can be someone else’s problem if something bad leaks out.

I do this, then after the 5 years I feel like I need to start over from the beginning so I know the story. Then I stop just before the end again.

If you want apples to apples, why the hell is Tesla, a company that makes under 2m vehicles, have a market cap of 1.4T while Toyota, a company that makes 10 million vehicles a year, has a market cap of 233B. No matter how you look at it, Toyota has better numbers in every way, but Tesla is a tech company as far as the market is concerned.

About 5 years ago FB decided that they wanted to 2FA using my college email instead of the one actually attached to the account. Don’t have my college email any more and I never cared enough to figure out how to fix it.

Use ranch dressing. I was informed that was for gays and city folk only. I really had no response to that nugget of wisdom.

I have the opposite. Unlimited phone data, but it throttles above some high number that I’ve never hit. Capped home internet from crapcast, 1.3 TB, I haven’t hit it but I’ve come within a couple gigabytes.

They offer unlimited data if I use their modem/router for an extra $10/mo. Of course their modem comes with the wonderful feature of a public hotspot for any other Comcast customers in the area. I’ve been thinking about getting their modem, putting it in a metal box and just using pass through with my opnsense box.

I like the catppuccin cursors (along with the rest of catppuccin) https://github.com/catppuccin/cursors

As someone who goes through TSA several times a week. Nah fuck that, some of the smurfs are absolutely there to fuck your day up just because they can. I’d say about 60% of the officers are highly mediocre, about 30% are good, but that last 10% are just malicious.

What you are looking for is a RAG and is one of the few legitimately useful implementations of LLMs outside the wall of hype.

This is 100% of the reason that I use the discord flatpak.

Yes, cracked Denuvo games actually run better because you aren’t running a virus anti piracy software in the background. It runs at the kernel level and Crowdstrike is a pretty good case study on why that’s bad.

My one and only reason is that I’m a turbo-nerd. No professional or even educational tech background at all.

Absolutely. I like caf over decaf, but if decaf is what’s available, then decaf is what’s getting drunk.

I had a squatter get mylastname.com after my dad died. After a while I guess they noticed that I registered mylastname.net and orffered to sell me mylastname.com I didn’t respond and they let it expire. I should probably register it.

When my dad died, no one renewed his domain, [last name].com, and some domain squatter bought it. A few years later the squatter noticed that I owned [last name].net and offered to sell it to me. I didn’t respond and I guess they figured out that an obscure last name isn’t worth anything and let it expire. I should probably buy it.

Looks like an airforce trainer, probably had some sort of malfunction. Looks like it landed back at Shepard AFB. I wouldn’t worry about it, minor emergencies happen fairly regularly.
