Yes and yes.
However I don’t use these solutions for mobiles. I use standard wireguard for that

There are loads of alternatives now so it’s a good time to have a look.
I’ve setup netmaker at home, and netbird at work They are both good solutions.
I think if I had to redo home I would swap to netbird. Both of these are fully self hosted.
Neither are as easy to setup as tailscale, but once you get over that hurdle it’s fine.
Ah okay.
Probably ai slop then?
I installed LTSC on a device recently. Very little effort for bloat free Windows.
I hear you. I worked for an msp where some customers would refuse to invest in backup solutions and we either declined to renew their contract or they suffered an event and we were then setting up backups.
I was in the middle of a migration from OVH to Hetzner. I knew I had good backups at home so the plan was to blow away OVH and restore from backup to Hetzner. This was the mistake.
Mid migration I get an alert from the raid system that a drive has failed and had been marked as offline. I had a spare disk ready, as I planned for this type of event. So I swapped the disk. Mistake number 2.
I pulled the wrong disk. The Adaptec card shit a brick, kicked the whole array out. Couldn’t bring it back together. I was too poor to afford recovery. This was my lesson.
Now I only use ZFS or MDRAID, and have multiple copies of data at all times.
I’m lucky enough to run a business that needs a datacenter presence. So most my home-lab (including Lemmy) is actually hosted on a Dell PowerEdge R740xd in the DC. I can then use the small rack I have at home as off-site backups and some local services.
I treat the entirety of /var/lib/docker
as expendable. When creating containers, I make sure any persistent data is mounted from a directory made just to host the persistent data. It means docker compose down --rmi all --volumes
isn’t destructive.
When a container needs a database, I make sure to add an extra read-only user. And all databases have their container and persistent volume directory named so scripts can identify them.
The backup strategy is then to backup all non-database persistent directories and dump all SQL databases, including permissions and user accounts. This gets run 4 times a day and the backup target is an NFS share elsewhere.
This is on top of daily backuppc backups of critical folders, automated Proxmox snapshots for docker hosts every 20 minutes, daily VM backups via Proxmox Backup Server and replication to another PBS at home.
I also try and use S3 where possible (seafile and lemmy are the 2 main uses) which is hosted in a container on a Synology RS2423RP+. Synology HyperBackup then performs a backup overnight to the Synology RS822+ I have at home.
Years ago I fucked up, didn’t have backups, and lost all the photos of my sons early years. Backups are super important.
Really?! Okay. I think your troll radar is well off, but it’s your opinion so you do you I suppose.
Maybe you are the troll. Like 4D chess level of troll. =D
Your post history and mod logs are also quite weird.
Lol what does that mean
The entire article seems like an attack. The author finds a unique identifier and adds “Russia bad” throughout.
States the information is in cleartext but then explains how everything is encrypted (in transit).
What will the author do if they intercepted any single online stores transfer of credit card details. Also encrypted in transit but Is that also deemed as cleartext? Or is that okay?
I don’t think much new is learnt here. WhatsApp also sends metadata in “cleartext” (not really, as it’s encrypted in transit, but this article called that “cleartext”).
Yeah exactly this. But the bandwagon has left the station at this point.
I don’t think this technology is intended to be used for global internet. But for giving access to a remote town, this is many magnitudes lesser in cost than a satellite.
A brief internet search tells me that a Starlink satellite is ~$1 million apiece, and lasts 5 years. With the additional cost of the launch the annual cost is ~$300,000 per year per satellite. You can work out the cost for 10 masts and tell me that its much cheaper.
From a consumer perspective, Starlink is amazing. Fast, relatively cheap, available anywhere. From a labour and material cost, its incredibly expensive. If a town can be serviced by cable, wireless, this new laser or whatever then the economical and environmental impact (in terms of materials) are a fraction.
Whilst masts will face the same prejudice as windmills for destroying landscapes, Starlink has already been causing issues with stargazing and night sky pollution. And this is only the first commercial venture for low-orbit internet. I can imagine there shall eventually be multiple of these setups, each with thousands of satellites (Starlink is at 7k+ now I think) which will only exacerbate the issues.
The point being, that having other technologies with overlapping abilities isn’t a bad thing. Choice is good.
Hang on that’s not a fair comparison. So you will need to deploy some masts to reach remote areas, got it.
Satellite internet then needs to fire a satellite into space to cover the area of which now there are thousands of then And the satellite has a shelf life and will eventually burn up in the atmosphere requiring repeated deployments.
Masts sounds easier.
God damn it. I chose minio for my S3 implementation. I wonder if there is a migration path to garage…
I find this to be a very cultural thing as to whether it’s acceptable or not. Where I live cats roam the streets, if an American visited here they would be horrified.
Seeing steam at the top makes me question the list. Likely a hate of DRM rather than privacy
1U form factor, 4 disks, using 7w whilst idle, decent enough CPU to run 1 Linux VM
I bought an RS822+ for as a veeam Linux repo.
I can’t make that myself, or I don’t know how.
It was stupid expensive and if it wasn’t the business paying I would have probably put a bunch of disks into an HP elite desk.
I’ve not looked but if the video id is based on its path, then surely the path includes the filename no? You can’t split a hash into its separate original parts, you either guess the entire thing or not. So in that case, the hash is going to challenging to brute force.
Ain’t nobody owning these libs
Thank you for the link. Good read
