Compared to Proprietary Closed Source that has its own security issues, malicious code, and also leverages Open Source too. Guess which one is better and transparent
- Comment on Is there a way to redirect voice traffic from WhatsApp and Signal to a landline? 5 days ago:
There might be a paid way. At work we have our phone numbers tied into zoom which ties into calling other phone numbers. It is used as a backend switchboard. So you could have a zoom number as your signal number which routes to your landline. Maybe.
- Comment on Making sure restic backups are right 1 week ago:
Deja DUP has auto validation also. But besides “backup” I think everyone suggests using ZFS that auto heals bit rot. And don’t trust unplugged SSDs, they can suffer bit rot quickly if stored in a hot location

You can use any open port and port forward at the router, or is CG NAT only 80

Just setup wireguard on your server, add masquerading and ip forwarding. That single wireguard in, will give you full access to your lan

2.5admins is a great show even if you aren’t an admin.
- Comment on Self-Hosted podcast 1 week ago:
Still been going with multiple shows. I don’t think it was “dropped”, if I recall Chris bought back the rights to his own shows, so he could manage it himself. There was some controversy when the head managers let Joe ressington go, bypassing Chris (as Joe’s Manager). Seemed things got set in motion to go independent after that.
- Comment on Security of running Headscale on a VPS 2 weeks ago:
Yeah it definitely is a pain for adding multiple machines.
- Comment on Security of running Headscale on a VPS 2 weeks ago:
I can’t offer technical network advice on vps headscale; Personally I’m not confident in my network skills. I would be more inclined to go through the pain of manually setting up wireguard instead of having a tailscale or headscale service-- and skipping the middleman so to speak
- Comment on What are people doing for home server UPS in 2025? 2 weeks ago:
Cyberpower 1500 AVR for me. Router, WiFi, and server run off of it. It has kept me going on the internet during power outages as well as ding voltage correction when we have under or overvolt power moments. And I use the cyberpower Linux app they provide to set server shut down time based on battery level. It has saved my equipment a few times. We have occasional wind induced power failures here (overhead power lines) and had a crow land on a transformer and explode which immediately triggered the UPS to clean the sudden blip. Also had an HP laptop power charger fuse itself internally and UPS detected the short and shut down all power. Without that UPS, the pack might have overheated if the panel breaker didn’t sense the short.

Its good for keeping your firewall or other services running, like homeassistant, during powered outages. But UPS also corrects power when it is dirty and protects your equipment.

Anonymously report them. Don’t call police they will come and take the server

That helps
- Comment on I hate how mean people can be to women 5 weeks ago:
I disagree with the men and women can’t be friends. Two of my besties in highschool were women (girls). We hung out, went this bars, each others ride to grab them the morning after a date. We still visit each other 30 years later.
- Comment on I add two docker containers via CLI and suddenly I can't ssh into my machine or access any local container.... what happened?? 5 weeks ago:
You could scp them from server out, you can setup simple http and grab via web, you can use a phone and take a picture, you can read them on the server and type them here. Lots of ways besides ssh into the machine from a client

People are replying like they are because you have asked for help but aren’t able to provide details on the steps, the yml files, or other commands you executed. Essential it is like when my wife calls me on my phone and says “I’m lost, where am I?” And I have no clue where she is because she can’t provide me street names or what direction she is travelling. Basically nobody here knows where you are.

I personally believe you are overbuilding. For example my OpenMediaVault Samba Server and DLNA server runs on a SingleBoard that has 256 megabytes of RAM. Yes MB. And it still has RAM free without swap.

You can have more than one drive on a pi, either USB, or they sell sata boards

Insecure kids act like that. They trash talk everyone else to raise themselves up, and if they can’t accept defeat (narcissist) they will be terrible

Not sure on MergerFS…I haven’t gotten deep into ZFS pools.

What ZFS are you using?
“As of November 2023, this feature was merged in main and is scheduled for release in OpenZFS 2.3:”
'The OpenZFS project (ZFS on Linux, ZFS on FreeBSD) is working on a feature to allow the addition of new physical devices to existing RAID-Z vdevs. This will allow, for instance, the expansion of a 6-drive RAID-Z2 vdev into a 7-drive RAID-Z2 vdev. This will happen while the filesystem is online, and will be repeatable once the expansion is complete (e.g., 7-drive vdev → 8-drive vdev)."
- Comment on Networking Oddity 1 month ago:
I don’t have a lot of networking skill here, but could it be your WiFi connections (anywhere) are IPv4 and on mobile it forces IPv6, thus why you can connect via IP:port? Typically your wireguard host machine has IP forwarding/masquarading setup so you can reach your home LAN. Could this be an issue through the router / proxy?

Good rant, bad friend. Not actually a friend, that sounds like a narcissitst that wants you around only when they need attention.

The Pluto one I finally understand, a science show pointed it that more recently there were 100s of other Pluto sized objects orbiting our sun, so they either had to add 100s more to match Pluto status, or demote Pluto to planetoid to avoid all the others getting status.

Yeah those types of people are at their worst when they feel rejected. Hopefully you have found a good Lemmy Anime group instead. So far Lemmy is a lot more chill than reddit.

There are always weird people online, unfortunately you found some. Them accusing you of what they did is juvenile behaviors.

My thought is well adjusted, happy people, dont have time for trolling nonsense. While those types you mention have all day (no life) to dish out negativity on a site they think makes them look smart.
- Comment on I pissed myself off in the shower. No, not in that way. 3 months ago:
There was a graph posted past month. Compared a lot of things including trans, and basically was how many trans people % in population vs how much people think there is an issue. I’m paraphrasing and guessing at the numbers since I don’t gave it handy. But say trans is 0.1% conservatives beleive it is affecting 30% of people, so it is a huge problem needing to be squashed.
As for the mental illness part, that should only be between their doctors and them, and nobody else gets an opinion and what happens. The medical community has a role to play in not harming a person who might be suffering mental condition clouding sane judgement.
For example there is that brain disorder where a person controls their limb normally (not alien hand syndrome) but they believe the limb is not their own, because the brain isn’t registering it as belonging to its own body. This can be from a damaged brain, parapysis issue or a delusion. In each case it causes patient distress. Can the root of the feeling be fixed? If not and patient asks for an amputation, do you perform that? Tough questions only the doctors and patient can work out, the rest of conservative society needs to keep their nose out of it.
