- Comment on Using Tailscale As A Traditional VPN 9 hours ago:
The way I understand it, there’s 2 use cases for a VPN, with different concerns and providers:
- having access to your private home network from anywhere, through an encrypted tunnel (Tailscale, Wireguard on the router, etc)
- having your outgoing traffic to the internet go through an anonymized exit node so that your ISP can not watch or sell what you are doing (ProtonVPN, Mullvad VPN, etc)
Is Tailscale fit for the second? I thought not, as the exit node is not an anonymized VPN server but one of your own machines.

It really is super simple

Interesting approach but looks like this ultimately ends up:
- being a lot of babysitting / manual work
- blocking a lot of humans
- not being robust against scrapers
Anubis seems like a much better option, for those wanting to block bots without relying on Cloudflare:

For anyone wondering what “TDS” means:
Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) is a pejorative term, used to describe criticism of or negative reactions to President Donald Trump that are perceived to be irrational and to have little regard for Trump’s actual policy positions.[1] The term has mainly been used by Trump supporters to discredit criticism of him, as a way of reframing the discussion by suggesting that his opponents are incapable of accurately perceiving the world.[2][3] Some journalists have used the term to call for restraint when judging Trump’s statements and actions.[4][5][6]
Despite the usage of the term syndrome suggesting a medical condition, TDS is not an official medical diagnosis.[7] A 2021 research study found no evidence to support the existence of TDS among Trump detractors on the left, but instead found bias among his supporters.[8

GitOps + Renovate.
Tools that allow you to work GitOps (everything is defined in text files in Git) are:
- Kubernetes
- NixOS
- to a lesser degree, Ansible
Here’s a nice starter template for running your own Kubernetes cluster via GitOps with Renovate pre-configured: github.com/onedr0p/cluster-template

Mostly yes, but there are some which are not necessarily as private and closed source but are good options for this specific threat model.
And I just thought the clear explanation of the why combined with the list, makes this an excellent blog to send to people who don’t get it yet.
The list itself is something most of the people in this community know already

- Comment on If I self host mastodon and matrix, and shutdown the device, when I turn it on again, will it receive all the activity that happened in the meantime? 1 month ago:
Took a look at the specification, this is what I found:
For federated servers performing delivery to a third party server, delivery SHOULD be performed asynchronously, and SHOULD additionally retry delivery to recipients if it fails due to network error.
So they should retry. Note that should is not the same as must. So there is no obligation. There is no timeline in the spec about for how long or how often retries should be done. The wording assumes network error.
My interpretation: the spec leaves a lot of room for implementations to differ. I’d guess that if your server is down for 5 minutes, you’ll still receive most or everything you’d normally receive. I wouldn’t trust on that if your server is offline for a day.

The “Peter” bit reminded me: Years back, there was a viral trend on Dutch socials where women shared a hashtag “I am Peter” to raise awareness that there were more people named Peter in Boards of Directors than women.

I think this image on the Felidae wiki sums it up pretty well: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Felidae#Phylogeny
Note that everything in this graph is extinct, except the 2 circled subfamilies at the bottom.

It was freely chosen for simplicity.
If you choose another R, the other sides (x and y) become Rcos(th) and Rsin(th)
I don’t understand what is harmful about the unity circle either.
