- Comment on How are people discovering random subdomains on my server? 7 hours ago:
Apparently it doesn’t.
- Comment on Self hosting with subdomains 1 week ago:
Section 1 says you’re using freedns.afraid.org though.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly #152: Wrapped 1 week ago:
Aye - that’s another reasonable use of the phrase.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly #152: Wrapped 1 week ago:
Ugh really? I haven’t seen that myself but that’s frustrating.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly #152: Wrapped 1 week ago:
Non-containerized applications. Not in a container. It’s not complicated. Running “on bare metal” sounds cool but it’s a wildly inaccurate description. Containerized applications run on the system natively just like non-containerized applications. So if one of them runs “on bare metal” then then others do as well.
But historically “on bare metal” is used for embedded or micro-controllers where you don’t have an OS.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly #152: Wrapped 1 week ago:
- Users will stop referring to non-containerized applications as “running on bare metal”
- Comment on Created a self-hosted API for CRUD-ing JSON data on different storage providers (local, S3, minIO, ...). 1 week ago:
What “other technology” is going to make sure your API doesn’t have SQL injection and bad authentication vulnerabilities?

“Security” is not just “ssl”…
- Comment on Created a self-hosted API for CRUD-ing JSON data on different storage providers (local, S3, minIO, ...). 1 week ago:
I think you should make it more clear in your docs that this is wildly insecure and should be restricted to “tinkering” usage only.
That said it seems like a fun project to write.
- Comment on Question about accessing my services from corporate Network 2 weeks ago:
Ssh port forwarding and socks proxying. Unless they block port 22.
- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 2 weeks ago:
AI is so much faster than reading docs. And you get context specific responses that you can drill into. When used correctly it’s very useful.
This was using it… incorrectly though…
- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 2 weeks ago:
The drive got whipped [sic]
Oh, it was just sitting there and “got wiped”? Not because of a command you ran?
Sorry to be snarky but when asking for help you need to provide what you did, what error message you see now or what you expect to happen and what is actually happening. Also what OS you’re using would be helpful.
Presumably you should be able to get the drive back into a usable state - but I’m not familiar with SAS drives.
- Comment on ChatGPT fried my drive!? 2 weeks ago:
Am I the only one who has no idea what their problem is now? Just that there was an error about DIF but… What’s the issue now?
- Comment on Tempus v4.6.0 android subsonic client 2 weeks ago:
Links to lms, navidrome, gonic, ampache, nextcloud, airsonic, the previous post… But none to the thing you posted about?
- Comment on What are some unique Games to host server's of? 3 weeks ago:
I ran a fairly popular RTCW server back in the day… Insta-gib and sniper rifles only. Good times.
- Comment on How do you manage your home server configuration? 3 weeks ago:
They’re good at different things.
Terraform is better at “here is a configuration file - make my infrastructure look like it” and Ansible is better at “do these things on these servers”.
In my case I use Terraform to create proxmox VMs and then Ansible provisions and configures software on those VMs.
- Comment on How do you manage your home server configuration? 3 weeks ago:
Terraform and ansible. Script service configuration and use source control. Containerize services where possible to make them system agnostic.
- Comment on Password managers... 4 weeks ago:
Cloud backups.
- Comment on Docker security 4 weeks ago:
This is… Pretty stupid. There are things to be careful about but it’s pretty straight forward to use iptables.
- Comment on Docker security 4 weeks ago:
But absolutely none of the issues you listed are issues with iptables.
- Comment on Docker security 4 weeks ago:
point is, firewalld and iptables is for amateur hour and hobbyists.
Which is weird for you to say since practically all of the issues you list are mistakes that amateurs and hobbyists make.
- Comment on Docker security 4 weeks ago:
Containers run “on bare metal” just as much as non-containerized applications.
- Comment on Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days 5 weeks ago:
They’re cheap. You can also generate your own certs and use your own ca. But otherwise yes - quit yer bitching and learn how to do things right.
- Comment on Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days 5 weeks ago:
You don’t need to if you’re just using things locally.
- Comment on Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days 5 weeks ago:
That’s a lot easier said that done for hobbyists that need a certificate for their home server.
I’d you’re going to self host you need to learn. I have no time for kids who just want “Google but free” and don’t want to spend any time learning what it takes to make that happen.
- Comment on Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days 5 weeks ago:
It’s being deiven by the browsers. Shorter certs mean less time for a compromised certificate to be causing trouble.
- Comment on Decreasing Certificate Lifetimes to 45 Days 5 weeks ago:
Will we need to log in every morning and expect to refresh every damn site cert we connect to soon?
Automate your certificate renewals. You should be automating updates for security anyway.
- Comment on Immich Is Now Stable! 1 month ago:
“Bare metal” has traditionally meant without any os either. Your code executes directly on hardware and has direct control over everything. Like a micro controller.
Code in a container executes on the hardware in exactly my the same way as code not running in a container - with the os as an intermediary.
- Comment on Immich Is Now Stable! 1 month ago:
“not running in a container” is not “running on bare metal”. It’s just running outside a container.
- Comment on Recommendations for an all-SSD home server? 1 month ago:
enough, a lot, more demanding.
You need to give some sort of guidance here.
