Cloudflare has dynamic DNS as well as a client to run on your server that will update automatically for you.
- Comment on How to pick a stylus to play a 78-rpm record 1 year ago:
Here’s some flame bait:
Why would you want to listen to your music in this inferior format? I get it if there aren’t any modern recordings or quality transfers but to actually sit down and enjoy the low signal to noise ratio of a record just boggles the mind.
- Comment on Criminal Gang Cuts Down MS3 FTTP Broadband Poles in Hull UK - ISPreview UK 1 year ago:
Aerial in the British way (antenna) or aerial in the normal way (hung between spans)? If it’s former, then I’m going to say BS but if it’s the later I would like to know more - right of way issues?
- Comment on Need help running homeassistantOS as a VM. VM doesnt receive ipv4 address. 1 year ago:
Did you ever figure out what was causing your issues?
- Comment on Can I create an instance? What is needed? 1 year ago:
It’s a feature of Git. Read up on git/GitHub before you try to tackle this.
- Comment on The $2,000 Phones that Let Anyone Make Robocalls 1 year ago:
Of course it’s the Russians selling this shit…
- Comment on What are some great use cases for a Raspberry Pi 4, if I buy the 5 to replace it? 1 year ago:
I have 2 pi 4. One of them runs Vaultwarden as my self-hosted password manager. The other runs TPLink Omada SDN management software to manage my switch and WiFi APs.
- Comment on Tesla will sue you for $50,000 if you try to resell your Cybertruck in the first year 1 year ago:
I recently saw my first Tesla Semi and also Tesla Truck in the wild. The semi was pretty cool but the truck looked like a toy or a prop and was smaller than I expected.
- Comment on Bitwarden passkey support starts rolling out through the browser extension 1 year ago:
Anybody know if this works for people self-hosting?
- Comment on Need help running homeassistantOS as a VM. VM doesnt receive ipv4 address. 1 year ago:
OP, are all of the working-as-expected VMs also members of the virbr0 network?
- Comment on Need help running homeassistantOS as a VM. VM doesnt receive ipv4 address. 1 year ago:
No, then the VMs would get their own subnet. You want the NIC bridged so that the router actually sees the VMs.
- Comment on DoorDash now warns you that your food might get cold if you don’t tip 1 year ago:
I know how to cook, but only in a commercial kitchen and only when I’m making 150+ servings of something.
- Comment on DoorDash now warns you that your food might get cold if you don’t tip 1 year ago:
Most of the places I’ve tried to order from directly still end up using door dash for the actual delivery. The only place where I’ve seen they actually send out their own driver is a Chinese restaurant near my house.
- Comment on DoorDash now warns you that your food might get cold if you don’t tip 1 year ago:
I hate Doorsdash so fucking much but I’m pretty sure I’m addicted to it. It’s one of those terrible destructive relationships and I find myself screaming at the app every time I use it. I recently discovered a neat trick though, where if I order from the website then the app won’t spam me with the double-dash popup but I’ll still get my delivery statuses.
- Comment on Any experience with Zen 1 idle power consumption running Proxmox? 1 year ago:
Would like to know this too. I have a 1600x sitting in my spare parts box since my desktop upgrade about a year ago. Been wondering if it’s worth it to set up some kind of game server with it.
- Comment on why host your own files when someone else can do it for you 1 year ago:
Probably at least as fast as a banking site.
- Comment on Apple jacks prices to juice profits because $19.3B a quarter isn't enough 1 year ago:
It took me 24 hours, saw the headline yesterday morning and skipped over it. Didn’t realize it wasn’t about cereal until this morning.
- Comment on Google Fiber is getting outrageously fast 20Gbps service 1 year ago:
Now, will they actually expand their coverage or just upgrade existing customers ?
- Comment on Did youtube give in already? 1 year ago:
They will still be able to make money off selling my online profile and serving ads to me even if I block them…
- Comment on anyone willing to walk a noob through getting some services running? 1 year ago:
So, most of us aren’t in the industry yet we managed to learn the jargon we needed to learn in order to do what we wanted to do. I don’t understand why you are adamant about others helping you when you don’t really seem to care enough to learn some words and their meanings.
- Comment on Did youtube give in already? 1 year ago:
Why make money off me once if they can make money off me twice.
- Comment on Did youtube give in already? 1 year ago:
Does Google have no issues with ad blocking as long as you pay for YouTube premium? I have premium because it’s included with my YouTube music subscription but I still use uBlock Origin in Firefox. I have never seen any requests for me to disable it while on YouTube or any other Google owned service.

It seems like you have a learning preference for conversational information transfer. Maybe try finding a discord group where people regularly talk about this kind of thing. People on Internet forums tend to prefer written documentation and value search engine prowess.
- Comment on anyone willing to walk a noob through getting some services running? 1 year ago:
It’s better if you struggle, you will learn more that way. For me, the struggle is the fun part anyway. Also, if you need these services to be bulletproof you probably shouldn’t be self-hosting them.
- Comment on Bitwarden and Nginx proxy manager 1 year ago:
You mentioned that you disabled the NGINX instance installed by Bitwarden, don’t do that. Just change the port that it is hosting on and then point NPM at that port. You can also set the Bitwarden NGINX conf to use a self-signed certificate and then use NPM to manage the real cert.
- Comment on Millions of smart meters will fail when 2G and 3G turns off 1 year ago:
I was under the impression that higher bandwidth wireless networks required higher frequency bands for that data. Like a specific frequency should have a theoretical maximum data transfer rate and the only way to get around that would be some kind of fancy compression algorithms.
- Comment on [WIRED] Citing Hamas, the US Wants to Treat Crypto "Mixers" as Suspected Money Launderers 1 year ago:
But those companies have paid good money to politicians for that privilege. You can’t expect them to have to follow the rules. To quote Jafar from Aladdin, “You ever heard of the golden rule? Whoever has the gold makes the rules.”
- Comment on Dashlane Diminishes Free Password-Manager Tier 1 year ago:
I figured this was coming, saw quite a few YouTubers recommending their product so I figured it was going to be a bait and switch. You don’t spend that much on marketing just to give your product away.
- Comment on CGNAT blocking external access to NAS. Looking to address this plus more. 1 year ago:
I already do use firewall rules, this is just an extra step I take to segment things which also serves to make it a bit easier for me to remember certain addresses. It is entirely unnecessary, but I like it this way.
