Trying to setup a personal matrix server last night, got it to federate, next step is Matrix’s Element Call.
- Comment on Technitium DNS v14 is released with support for clustering 1 week ago:
This was a while ago so the details are fuzzy, I gave it Traefiks docker labels on port :5380 but that didn’t seem to work then I read an a bug report saying give Traefik :8053 so I tried that and again didn’t work so I went back to :5380 and all of a sudden it reverse proxied but my login wouldn’t work even though it worked when going to the LAN IP+Port didn’t find much in terms of troubleshooting and documentation so I eventually gave up on it.
I have had terrible experiences with recursive DNS resolvers, PiHole+Unbound worked for maybe an hour then would completely kill my internet access, the same essentially went with OpenSense, I had hope for Technitium but alas didn’t feel the need to spend hours troubleshooting something that PiHole alone did with ease.

Meanwhile Battleblock Theatre and Castle Crashers are still receiving updates 10 years later. Goes to show how far a game can go if you put a little effort into it.
- Comment on Technitium DNS v14 is released with support for clustering 1 week ago:
If only reverse proxying Technitium wasn’t a pain in the ass to do I would actually use it. Maybe one day they’ll fix the login issues until then PiHole works.

I mean technically I am right, they are worth at least 1 billion dollars, didn’t feel like looking up their gross/net earnings.
- Comment on Windows 11 Finally Fixes "Update and Shut Down" Functionality After a Decade 1 week ago:
Maybe one day they’ll fix applications on the task bar not focusing when you click on them, don’t get me confused here, these are applications already open and in the background but clicking the icon on the taskbar occasionally does nothing until you manually bring it to the foreground.
So dumb.
- Comment on ProtonMail Logged IP Address of French Activist; Should You Be Worried About Your Privacy? 2 weeks ago:
I would rather they have funny language in their privacy policy opposed to mandatory logging, they have to cover themselves legally as well so they got to utilize legal-ise so they aren’t sued into the dirt.
I’m sure Gmail tracks the IP of your rectum.
I bet Google predicted you would say that!
- Comment on ProtonMail Logged IP Address of French Activist; Should You Be Worried About Your Privacy? 2 weeks ago:
Why is this a surprise? IP Logging is pretty normal.
**2.5 IP logging: by default, we do not keep permanent IP logs in relation with your Account. However, IP logs may be kept temporarily to combat abuse and fraud, and your IP address may be retained permanently if you are engaged in activities that breach our Terms of Service (e.g. spamming, DDoS attacks against our infrastructure, brute force attacks). The legal basis of this processing is our legitimate interest to protect our service against non-compliant or fraudulent activities. If you enable authentication logging for your Account or voluntarily participate in Proton’s advanced security program, the record of your login IP addresses is kept for as long as the feature is enabled. This feature is off by default, and all the records are deleted upon deactivation of the feature. The legal basis of this processing is consent, and you are free to opt in or opt out of that processing at any time in the security panel of your Account. The authentication logs feature records login attempts to your Account and does not track product-specific activity, such as VPN activity.

- Comment on My own copyparty instance 2 weeks ago:
Pro-Tip: You can reverse proxy any service on your network but if the IP of your server does not match the IP of your A record the public will not be able to access your server.
Http/s is neat that way, if the IP’s don’t match then it’s technically considered an insecure or misconfigured setup but it works great to prevent unauthorized access to one’s server.

Yeah, once you get the basics of BASH down Linux becomes really easy.
Open up your Console/Shell/Terminal and type “help” it will give you the list of commands to help navigate the shell.

- Comment on Man Alarmed to Discover His Smart Vacuum Was Broadcasting a Secret Map of His House 2 weeks ago:
Did a little digging, not sure if you’re someone who self hosts but Homebridge appears to offer a plugin for Xiaomi smart vacuums this may give you more functionality with the cost of exposing it to the internet.
- Comment on Man Alarmed to Discover His Smart Vacuum Was Broadcasting a Secret Map of His House 3 weeks ago:
I’m unfamiliar with Xiaomi “smart” products, I assume there is an app to control the vacuum, if it does have an app does it still work for you strictly behind your LAN network?

There are many ways, a popular choice would be managing your own recursive DNS resolver and then blocking the endpoint it contacts.
- Comment on What's the best chat to self host? 5 weeks ago:
Doesn’t cover Traefik, plus the docker-compose.yml contains 4 separate images and researching into them didn’t provide much info.
snicket_proxy,snikket_certs,snikket_portalandsnikket_server. All four of these images bind to the host and if I am supplying my own reverse proxy then bothsnikket_proxyandsnikket_certsare redundant right? Or do they serve another purpose? And if I wanted to take them off the host network, follow their firewall guide and expose the necessary ports manually behind a docker bridge network what images to I bind those ports to? When I tried binding them all tosnikket_serverthat’s when my docker service crashed and I gave up. - Comment on What's the best chat to self host? 5 weeks ago:
Snikket locked my docker service up, their documentation sucks for when you want to use your own reverse proxy or bind it behind a docker network and not the host.
- Comment on 5 weeks ago:
If you can make your own like I did I would highly recommend it.
Honestly I could, metal fabrication comes in handy, get it shop issued and laser or water cut send it through the machinists, I would have to supply the material myself which would be difficult but certainly doable.
I’ll have to consider this! By chance do you have drawings are dimensions of your rack as a starting point? Completely understandable if you rather not share.

If it connects to the internet, you can change the DNS to whatever you want it to be. If Tim over at Apple had his way I’m sure he’d force his ‘i’ devices to use a “secure Apple DNS” server.

Depends on the host name, I’m sure there is a PiHole blocklist out in the wild but likely only targets telemetry.
