Maybe not what you want, but have you considered VPN’ing at your router? Doesn’t help if you travel, so maybe worthless…

…and regular old murder for ReiserFS.

Not sure what it is about filesystem maintainers…

Humans weren’t meant to live with zero autonomy.

Not every parent removes all autonomy from their child. Sorry that happened to you, sounds like it sucked.

Not just UNIX-like, but actual UNIX.

IIRC there were some UNIX-certified Linux distros out there too, not sure if they’re still around.

Only one of them is UNIX.

Cool, I recommend it!

I have my public facing reverse proxy point to my public services, and I also have it set up as a “roadwarrior” VPN to my home. So, I can connect my phone via WireGuard to my VPS, and a local DNS resolves my private services to the private IP addresses in my home network (so, I also run a reverse proxy on my server, for internal services).

I also have an off-site backup using this — just a raspberry pi and an HDD at family’s, that rsyncs+snapshots over the WireGuard network.

I’m sure I’m not following all the best practices here, but so far so good.

This is the element Ru (not some whacky AI backed cryptocurrency).

VPS with a public ip (which just takes all the fun out of selfhosting)

Why do you say this? My VPS only runs a reverse proxy and WireGuard, with all services hosted on my computers at home.

But what if the foe is really the Epstein files?

I’ve heard stories of grad students flat out refusing to work with HF. (Never relevant for me, other than being something very scary.)

Remember that RAID and redundancy is not backup.

Try to 3-2-1, or something similar/better, if you can.

I am fairly sloppy here, and I am also very cheap. I have multiple copies in my home for important stuff (mainly Immich), the in use copy being on SSD and a few backups on spinning rust. I have a raspberry pi with an external HDD at family’s place, with a daily rsync+snapshot, for off site backups.

Of course, I’ve never had a catastrophic failure, so who knows how smooth that would be…

I switched to Technitium and I’ve been pretty happy. Seems very robust, and as a bonus was easy to use it to stop DNS leaks (each upstream has a static route through a different Mullvad VPN, and since they’re queried in parallel, a VPN connection can go down without losing any DNS…maybe this is how pihole would have handled it too though).

And of course, wildcards supported no problem.

Maybe take a look at Outline. (Not affiliated, but I host it for myself.)

I also host KitchenOwl, but mostly just as a grocery list.

"While I’m up here I want to shout out all of our friends and neighbors who couldn’t be here tonight. Our international friends and neighbors who cannot safely travel to this country. Our immigrant friends and neighbors who cannot safely travel inside this country. Our trans friends and neighbors who cannot safely travel after having their driver’s licenses revoked overnight without warning by a cruel and unnecessary legislative act.

“Our friends and neighbors in places like Iran, Venezuela, or Gaza who fear for their lives on a daily basis because of cruel and unnecessary violence. I don’t have any plans to stand on this stage again anytime soon, but if I ever were to do so again I would want it to be amongst all of my friends and neighbors, safe and thriving.”

I would love to see some enterprising politicians try to pass massive funding for solar/renewable and just call it some stupid nationalistic thing to make it popular with the grey matter-challenged demographic.

Go renewable to save the planet? Fuck off hippie! Go renewable because then we can bomb with impunity? I’m listening…

The dot-com bubble burst, but…well, it got better.

Of course there were some casualties (famously pets.com), but Microsoft, Cisco, Intel, Amazon…yeah they got their clock cleaned at the time, but long term they were pretty successful.

For all the problems with tech companies, having a chunk of compensation be in the form of RSUs isn’t the worst idea ever. (I know it’s not specific to tech companies, but it’s generally a very prominent aspect of tech company compensation, Netflix notwithstanding.)

To those asking “who celebrated”…Linux was not always well supported by Flash. The promise of HTML5, with first class Linux support, was very appealing.

I’m really really glad that I get root on my work computer.
