Why would I trust a commercial venture

At least with hosting or VPN services there’s the excuse of you have to pay for a finite resource that costs money.

Ow weewy, giv it a west! :3

Huh, fuck me, nvm.

2013 survives it, I really doubt they made much a change because that was that gens second year.

What specifically would a newer car have my 9th gen civic wouldn’t?

Two things I know of that mean anything are collision detection/prevention and blindspot sensors.

The ladder of those things can be added aftermarket.

Any good open-source nvrs that support bidirectional rtsp? I know zoneminder didn’t last time I checked.

I make temp accounta on tutanota for longterm, yopmail for short-term. You might have to try multiple exits, but eventually you can get tuta to let you make an account over TOR.

Why pay for a burner?

That being said if you need a burner SMS number, no good free alternative to that since those usually involve simfarming.

Been a fan of smspool for that reason.

Is it elitist to think bad UX is a smaller problem than core political ideology, especially for a group of people who’re far more computationally literate/flexible than at leas 75% of the population.

Some of these people are tech workers for fuck sake. It would be elitism if these where people without much experience around computers. Its not elitism of people are just choosing not to put effort into shit they claim matters deeply to them.

Funny you mention. Ran pfsense as a router for years (still do.)

I had a Ubiquiti AP but hate shaving to run a VM or own separate hardware just to properly configure it. Especially considering it was the only ubiquiti gear I had.

Ended up installing openwrt on it and ended up with what I actually wanted out of an access point.

I use dlinks and what not now, whatever is cheap, has a decent radio, and supports openwrt.

No the one that pisses me off are the people who understand that computers take effort and the only way to fix that is to have an organization that takes care of that effort for you.

For example to replace discord your only options are: Corporate shit Startups which are a few extra users away from IPO’ing into corporate shit Something open source selfhosted

I get why normal folk don’t wann self host. What I can’t stand is the complaints about using other peoples self hosted servers because you can’t be fucked to remember more than two URLs/passwords as if your browser doesn’t have bookmakers and you don’t have a password manager.

Like fuck sure, its cool you don’t want to do system administration. But the only way an extra site is inconvenient is if you’re incapable of the computer equivalent of wiping your own ass.

These are young anticapitalist, chronically online queers I’m talking about too.

If they’re not willing nobody is and its fucking soul crushing to know.

I’m surprised no one else has answered mediawiki. Love my mediawiki instance.

Yeah as someone who does both ansible is for repeatable multi-system commands like telling everything to update or configuring a local agent on every machine at once.

You can take my 2012 civic from my cold dead and fabulous hands.

Its just storing a date you tell it is your birthday. Nothing more than an age gate that can easily be lied to.

Honestly just have your distro zero accounts out to 00:00:00-1970-01-01 by default.

For webapp stuff for sure, but when you want to login as the same user with the same perms across all your VMS and baremetal servers at the os, it’s nice.

I use virtualization over containerization because i have the hardware resource so I might as well take advantage of improved isolation and security VMS provide. Plus I use Linux on my desktop/laptop, and have a separate dedicated storage host.

Its nice to have everything managed by one service with global accounts and permissions.

Looking at authentik it seems to provide some but not all of that. Def something to keep an eye on if freeipa decides to stop being so free.

If you’re running a docker-based environment, and especially if your personal workstation/laptop doesn’t run Linux, I totally get it.

I think freeIPA could use an openid provider packed in for sure. I also kinda trust api keys more than creating the service accounts for software that needs to auth.

Outta curiosity how do you handle SSO and File Storage? I like being able to make samba shares that require SSO authentication over something like nextcloud because I can directly mount the disk. Not sure if theres a good option there.

Your router is an important security device that you should own and control your self if you want any semblence of ownership over your network.

Your modem is remotely controlled by the ISP even if you own it, and is mostly there to demodulate from the medium installed by your ISP (usually cable, or fiber but those are called ont’s not modems) to a standard cat. 6 Ethernet connection you can plug into most routers.

The main benefit of owning your own modem is not having one with a router built in and not having to pay an equipment fee.

Haven’t touched HA yet but I run FreeIPA, is there an LDAP option or will I have to get an open I’d solution go sit in front of it?

For inside the lan/lab, I have my pem chain looks like:

cold storage root-ca -> offline vault qubes VM ca -> pfsense ca -> freeipa ca

I use letsencrypt for externally facing services.

Its a little bit more effort than getting things just workin’ but its worth the whole lotta security you get in return. Plus it feels nice looking at a shiny green lock.

The XMPP ecosystem is a mess and matrix has a ton of security and metadata issues.

We shouldn’t be using discord-likes anymore, it was a bad idea the first time.

Personal IM/VoIP should be separate from game party chat should be separate from communitt IRC/forums
