Also disappointing to see such a click-bait-y headline from the Guardian.

It is only resolving for devices in the Tailnet. Kuma is checking they are all up, and this Ansible playbook is checking they have all their updates. I wouldn’t have thought that was an unusual arrangement - and it’s worked perfectly for about a year till about three weeks ago.

Yes, this.

Thanks yes - that’s exactly what I needed.

Thanks - this is exactly what I needed.

Yes - we’re “I’ll let you use my electricity for your computer thing” friends, not “I’m okay with seeing your printer on my home network” friends.

Yes - it seems odd not to report both.

Kavita is for ebooks - it’s not perfect, has some weirdness with series sometimes because of it’s manga heritage.

For me, AudioBookShelf is the clear standout for audio books, and I ended up going with Kavita for ebooks.

I have it in a git repo, broken down by the nodes and vps names. In each of these folders is a mixture of Ansible playbooks, docker compose or just markdown files with the descriptions. Some is random stuff - my VPS allows the export of the cloud firewalls as JSON for instance. All the secrets needed by Ansible are in an Ansible vault, the rest in KeePass.

Or just trotting, we don’t know.

Taxidermists hate this one trick.

Prediction: data about measles cases stops being collected and published.

Didn’t Tom Hanks invent this in “Big”?

Great comprehensive answer. The only thing I might have added (at the risk of confusing things) is that Codeberg is a non-profit, community-led effort that provides Git hosting (with Forgejo), so a sort of open source GitHub

I started doing this, maybe 15 years ago, but if I look through my spam folder now, most of it is to the email address I used before I began using unique addresses (the rest is to random addresses in my domains that I’ve never used).

My hypotheses from that are that

• there is probably less ‘selling of email lists’ going on than we think
• I’m less interested in dubious internet sites than I used to be
• or (most likely) these days, your internet thing has to be offering me some real value if I’m going to consciously give you any of my data.

Utopia episode.

I like data, I like tech, I like investing large amounts of time and energy to self-host things that muggles would not bother with.
