  • Starlink with self hosted?

    Jump

  • I just saw a video on Pangolin which is, essentially, a self hosted version of what cloudflare tunnels provide. I have absolutely no experience with it, just saw a video on YT, but it might be the solution you're looking for

  • Do you encrypt your drives and why or why not?

    Jump

  • Correct, the hard disk in the laptop can not be read. This is where having a good backup strategy is important. Similar to how if your hard disk dies you're no longer able to access the material on the hard disk. For me, the downsides of encryption do not outweigh the benefits of having my data secure.

    I enabled full disk encryption during OS installation, set up a secure passphrase, and then set up automated encrypted backups to my home server, which are automatically backed up to a remote server.

    I gain peace of mind in knowing that if my laptop is stolen I'm only out the cost of the laptop, the data within is still safe and secure.

    • harddrives can be corrupted, too. That's where backups come in
    • True, though one could use a security key or password manager to overcome that, or setup secure boot/TPM to where a password isn't actually needed. If all else fails, again, backups.

  • What are the downsides to encryption? Though you may have negligible benefits, if there are also negligible downsides then the more secure option should be chosen.

    TiL someone really named their child Harry Cox.

  • Harry Cox, son of Dick Cox

    That would be if his name was Richard, not Robert

  • What are your Homelab goals for 2025?

    Jump

  • What's your solution? PiHole? The thing I don't like about the PiHole is the lack of wildcard domain rewrites. I've been playing with AdGuard Home and Unbound, not sure what my final solution will be, though.

  • What are your Homelab goals for 2025?

    Jump

  • Yeah I've been toying with FreeIPA for IdM, Keycloak for SSO, and Netbird to create a zero trust internal network. DNS is the hurdle I'm currently figuring my way over

  • FOSS IDEs recommendations?

    Jump

  • I'm a big fan of vim/neovim with nerdtree and airline added in.

    I've also been tryingourt Zed recently, it natively supports vim keybindings, so my workflow hasn't changed, but its lightning fast (programmed in rust) compared to vs-codium (an electron app)

  • Recommendations on Linux Friendly PDF Software

    Jump

  • Yeah as @Nick mentioned, if it was just filling forms that would be fine, but its arranging documents and adding files together that he does most

  • Recommendations on Linux Friendly PDF Software

    Jump

  • This would totally work if it was for me, but the constant complaint from my dad is, "This was easier on Windows, why did you switch me to Linux?" So it has to be 70 year old man easy. Thank you, though!

  • Whoa I had no idea OnlyOffice had a PDF editor, I'll be checking that out this week, thanks!

  • Recommendations on Linux Friendly PDF Software

    Jump

  • Thanks! I'm going to check this out!

  • Self hosting email, what's the latest and greatest what FOSS can offer?

    Jump

  • I've been playing with Stalwart-Email as a combined SMTP/IMAP server. Its open source and written in rust, still pretty early in development and I haven't played with it enough to give any real opinion on the pluses or minuses compared to other software, but its worth taking a look at.

  • Containers are chroot with a Marketing Budget

  • Which eventually leads to the Dark Side

  • Why is there a dunkin donuts app?

  • Question: Can anyone recommend open source map-making / site design software?

  • You could self host a web client

  • Local NetBird Network for Zero Trust network, accessible from WAN

    Jump

  • Well the internet down scenario has only happened once, and I returned home to no internet, booted up my laptop, and could not connect to any of my services since I couldn't reach my control server. I haven't forced the issue to occur by disconnecting my internet and testing connectivity. I just did the lazy thing and connected to the services I wanted via their IPv4 address

  • Local NetBird Network for Zero Trust network, accessible from WAN

    Jump

  • you're almost certainly routing local network traffic over NetBird instead of using local routes

    That's precisely the functionality I want, though. Secure, encrypted, mutually identified traffic should be the only traffic in a zero trust network.

    I'm simply trying to create an ingress point into this network for outside access.
