We’ll need to see configs and IP assignments to be able to help.

They aren’t comparable being at completely different scales. Check diskprices.com
- Comment on Help with domain 2 days ago:
Don’t mix your public and private DNS records. Use your public records for public things, and a local DNS forwarder for your local network.
A records only reference IPs and not ports.
SRV can be used to specify where to find ports, but the client needs to support those lookups to properly use it. You can use a reverse proxy or HTTP redirects to point things to different ports.

If it fails it’s healthcheck, then it reports unhealthy. Check and see what it’s healthcheck is configure to be.
- Comment on Has anyone gotten up and running with activitypods yet? 2 days ago:
Doesn’t look like anything integrates with it yet except for something called Mastopod.
- Comment on Found an old handwritten note of my old favorite Halo Reach community maps. Do you guys recognize any? 4 days ago:
This is wholesome as fuck
- Comment on Are there really only a few New 3DS exclusive games? 1 week ago:
That’s insane these prices are still almost the original retail price. If I’m remembering correctly, most the post-intro titles didn’t even take advantage of the 3D screens after awhile, so I’m confused on the draw for the new revision except that it’s bigger.
You’d be better off just getting a vastly cheaper and more powerful handheld meant for modern emulation.
- Comment on What peripheral do you think should make a comeback? 2 weeks ago:
You can get modern light guns that work with newer displays. They track using infrared, so it’s not quite the same, but it’s good enough to play all the arcade mame classics without a problem.

OpenTTD is open source, so not sure that fits.

Honestly, if you only have a week to go, might be easier to just get some Reolink cams and set those up. Jumping through hoops to use desktops with webcams is more work than you need.
- Comment on Following Trump’s lead, his allies lash out at Ukraine’s Zelenskyy and suggest he may need to resign 4 weeks ago:
You’ve answered every single one of my questions with some inexplicably idiotic stance as being steadfast in your own idiotic ideals. Exactly proving my point. You’re a pathetic excuse for a human. Totally what Jesus would do, exactly like this.
- Comment on Following Trump’s lead, his allies lash out at Ukraine’s Zelenskyy and suggest he may need to resign 4 weeks ago:
He hasn’t done shit to help anyone, only hurt people. It’s very clear what I’m saying.
The lies and lies and lies upon lies to absolutely fucking ruin a normally functioning government, put people in Guantonomo Bay for PR news clips, ruin human lives…that’s abhorrent.
You as a person with no empathy obviously doesn’t care about this.
Let me tell you about you DO seem to care about: is he making your life better somehow? You think all the gay, and trans people are going away or something? You’re paying more taxes already for wealthy people to be more wealthy, and that’s super okay with you as long as trans girls can’t run track sports with cis girls? Millions upon millions of human lives on this planet that we’re not in jeopardy just a few months ago now suddenly are.
I’m super excited to hear about your feelings on how your life has improved.
- Comment on Following Trump’s lead, his allies lash out at Ukraine’s Zelenskyy and suggest he may need to resign 4 weeks ago:
He hasn’t done shit. He’s fucking with people who are responsible for less than 1% of the government budget in areas he personally doesn’t like. He’s not helping anyone but Elon Musk. Why don’t you ask when he’s going to start saving real money and finding them trilleeyuns he claimed they’d already identified, buddy?
- Comment on Following Trump’s lead, his allies lash out at Ukraine’s Zelenskyy and suggest he may need to resign 4 weeks ago:
I want you to name one thing that US has benefitted from so far in this administration. A tangible benefit. I can tell you what has NOT been touched:
- “DAY 1 I WILL SULVE INFLAYSHUN”
- “DAY 1 I WILL STOP RUSHYA”
- “DAY 1 I WILL STAHP CHYYNAH”
- “DAY 1 WE WILL KUT TWOO TRILLYUNN FRUM BUDDGYET”
Trump is still looking for his healthcare plan from 10 years ago, and he’s already forgotten the “concept of a plan” he lied about during the debates. Is infrastructure week still on its way as well?

What have they done so far?
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 4 weeks ago:
I don’t even know what you’re talking about now, so I’m going to stop responding. If Dependabot was already enabled for a project, you probably wouldn’t need to worry, so that negates this entire thread. 🙄
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 4 weeks ago:
I’m aware, but then you mentioned “manual changes”, which connotes “local changes”. Putting up a PR with changes isn’t considered a manual anything.
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 4 weeks ago:
Well a PR means an upstream fix for the project. If you want to scan all your local running things, by all means change whatever you want, but it will just be potentially wiped out by the tool you mentioned if running.
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 4 weeks ago:
Yup. Really easy in most cases if you’re just upgrading a dependency version of something to the next minor release up, but then it has to pass all the project CI tests, and get an actual maintainer to tag it for release. That’s how open source works though.
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 4 weeks ago:
This is a bad idea for a number of reasons. Most obvious issue is that it doesn’t guarantee anything in the way of actually fixing vulnerabilities, because some project you use may not even be scanning their own work.
- Comment on How do you keep track of vulnerabilities? 4 weeks ago:
Trivy and Grype will give you a pretty decent idea of what you have for exposure, but you’re at the best of any project for fixing their own issues, or you can contribute updates if accepted.
Really the first line of defense is just securing your comms to the public internet. If you’re running everything internally, you have a lot less to worry about. Nothing will ever be bulletproof though.
- Comment on Product recommendation (Hyper Backup target) 4 weeks ago:
Really all you’re needing is a network interface to a disk. Nothing more. If you’re comfortable running a headless device, go for that and ignore Synology as the majority of the features aren’t even needed in this case. Hyper Backup supports rsync destinations on remote hosts, and that sounds like all you want.
- Comment on Product recommendation (Hyper Backup target) 4 weeks ago:
Synology sells single bay units now, but anything that has network connectivity should work fine. If this is just off-site backup, find whatever is the cheapest. If an RPi with a USB attached disk is cheaper, do that.
- Comment on Dumbware.io - Stupid Simple Software 4 weeks ago:
First off, no, this is 100% not true. That’s like saying a professional chef’s chicken soup will be the same as a beginner following the same recipe. Just, no.
Second, I’m talking about the general idea and implementation. Example:
Which is easier?
- Cloning and running a repo to install node deps, configuring dotenv variables, running node app, then opening a browser to input a domain name into a field to get a response back about domain ownership, OR…
- Opening a terminal and running
whois somedomain.comand getting a response back. Code to illustrate.
Which is easier?
- Configuring and running a compose to start a docker container to visit a browser to use a text editor, OR…
- Open a local text editor which every OS has available
The cheeky nature of the projects aren’t lost on me, i just don’t see a point beyond basic coding exercises for them to exist. They’re getting social media hype and embracing that…cool, but anyone acting like this is some awesome new stuff is just delusional or flat wrong.
- Comment on Dumbware.io - Stupid Simple Software 4 weeks ago:
There’s a difference between KISS and just plain useless. These apps are like beginner code for people in high school.
- Comment on Backups: Am I doing this right? 5 weeks ago:
Some things you should determine first:
- Total amount of data you will be backing up
- Frequency of backups
- Number of copies to keep
Plug these numbers into cost calculators for whatever cloud service you’re hoping to use, because this is honestly not going to be the cheapest route to store off-site if there are ingress charges like with S3.
I know Cloudflare’s R2 service doesn’t charge for ingress or egress (for now), but you might be able to find something even cheaper if you’re only backing up certain types of data that can be easily compressed.
I’d also investigate cheap ways to maybe just store an off-site drive with your data: office/work, family house, friends house…etc.
