You like deploying infrastructure, probably in a cloud environment, but you don’t want to push a bunch of buttons in their web interface, so you use Terraform to declaratively define the things you want, and it goes and builds them for you. Super useful for when you need to build resources often, to detect and correct config drift, and get started down the path of Infrastructure as Code.

I’m running the following SQL, although I’m not actually sure it’s as necessary since 0.18.3. It doesn’t delete any post history or anything.

DELETE FROM activity WHERE published < NOW() - INTERVAL '1 day';

I think the Kindle Scribe has a lit screen, if e-ink is what you’re after.

I love my ReMarkable 2! I use it everyday for handwritten notes and for e-reading. It doesn’t support the major stores, but it loads epubs just fine. I’m also self-hosting rmfakecloud cause I’m that kind of nerd. You mentioned night use, so definitely be aware it does not have any lighting built in.

Hugo calls these sorts of things “frontends” and has a list here: https://gohugo.io/tools/frontends/

I haven’t had great luck with any of them personally.

I wouldn’t want to host anything on Windows unless you have to, or you want to learn more about Active Directory / Exchange / etc to help with a day job (assuming your day job is sysadmin / IT). Even then I’d do that inside Windows VMs on a Linux / ESXi host.

I personally wouldn’t (and don’t) host authoritative servers externally to the internet. I do split-horizon DNS, so that my internal BIND server handles my LAN, but I have outside DNS handled by someone that has an ACME (Let’s Encrypt) module, so that I can do wildcart certs.

One thing to look into as you spin up services at home would be some sort of VPN like Tailscale, WireGuard, or even something like Cloudflare Tunnel so that you’re not exposing services directly to the internet if you don’t absolutely have to. I believe some of these projects/products let you specify DNS servers so that when your phone (for example) is connected to the VPN, it uses your home DNS servers instead of public ones.

Your very own self-hosting legend is about to unfold! A world of dreams and adventures with self-hosting awaits!

Yep! Just for whatever the abuse contact was in whois. Could have been coincidence, or maybe just whoever was on shift in Azure town at the time. I don’t remember if I got a response or not from MS.

I’ve actually done this for a Microsoft owned IP before. Someone was Wordpress-scanning a particularly fragile application of one of my clients (which was not Wordpress) which was causing it to fall over. The scan stopped within an hour of sending the abuse email.

Edit to add: I used to work in a NOC for a tier 1 ISP. We had an “abuse department” (a couple people) that investigated these and opened tickets with the NOC. I’ve emailed customers and disconnected circuits as a result of abuse emails, so I wouldn’t say they’re totally useless, but I’m sure it depends on the company involved.

Link thumbnails do get mirrored. My understanding is the front end of Lemmy is pretty heavy for the big instances and the burden of federating to another instance is pretty small. One thing I’ve noticed on my instance is that sometimes inbound federation can be pretty annoyingly slow.

Emby is not open source any more.

It’s free as in “paying zero money”. It’s still distributed via leanpub. Requires an email address to get to the download page, it doesn’t verify it in any way other than being a valid email format. Links are to DRM-free epub and PDF.

The US military spends 2 trillion a year. I’d much rather see those resources go into rescue operations than the opposite. Poor people in a boat should absolutely get access to the same resources, and the crime here is not that billionaires did, but that the migrants didn’t.

Conservatives don’t seem to have trouble with boob jobs, etc. I think this is an instance of using religion as an excuse when it’s convenient.

It uses Elon Musk’s Starlink satellite technology to communicate, though it is unclear if it was the cause of the loss of contact.

Surely this is the surface vessel and not the sub. Starlink communications are around 11 GHz, which can only propagate a couple meters in salt water.

I think the question about “being on Beehaw” is because you’ve been commenting on a post in a Beehaw community.

Couple questions:

• What’s your ISP at home?
• What’s the ISP of the remote IPv6 server?
• Are the other networks you’ve tried from the same or different?

I’d start with traceroute and see how far your IPv6 traffic gets before it fails. It could very well be some peering or routing issue between some of the ISPs in between you and wherever that IPv6 address lives. If this ends up identifying where the traffic dies, a lot of the tier 1 ISPs have BGP looking glass servers so you can get an idea of what they know about that subnet.

I believe the activity table in Postgres is retained for 6 months (although I’m purging mine daily) and the pict-rs cache is 168 hours (1 week).

Yep, using ingress-nginx on k3s as well.

We’re using it in production at my day job in a couple of places.

I use ingress-ngnix for all my ingress controllers, I’ve only messed with Traefik a bit in Kubernetes and it felt like it was fighting me the whole time.
