Sounds like projection from the incel scientists.

Sure. But their deves still create lots of noise in open source projects and you don’t always know where they work.

Of course. Because when we’re all the little guys and helping each other, it’s fair. Now you have trillion dollar companies making demands of your project but donating zero dollars to it, and it feel much less fair.

Basically it’s a URL that you call with curl. You can set up a crown job to call every day or as often as you need. The URL contains the domain name or subdomain, you dynamic public IP (not CNAT), and the API token. This way you Domain always points to your dynamic IP.

Namecheap, and I guess other registrars too, has an API that you can call from your server to update your IP address in their DNS. It’s super easy. No need to pay for a static IP address. At least in my case ei already use my domain for other things.

And since when is the easiest way the funnest way? :P

My ISP uses CGNAT but I can ask for a dynamic IP address for free. I sent them an email and got a reply in less than a week. I can also pay extra like 2.50€ per month or something for a fixed IP. I found that quite reasonable.

Trying to smoothly orchestrate prowlarr, radarr, jellyfin, and transmission (via Proton vpn), using a big beautiful docker compose file. It’s been working OK but not without roadbumbs and tough learnings. Keep messing up directory permissions one way or another.

Next step is setting up fail2ban on my public facing jellyfin to control things a little better. Everything is hosted at home, and I don’t want to use cloud flare tunnels, are streaming video is technically not allowed in them.

If you have more good tips on securing a home server, let me know!

Also, this is all running on an ancient 2012 mac mini running Ubuntu. Slow as molasses and sometimes the fans make a noise. I should start looking into back-up solutions, at least for the configs.

You forgot scrot.

Where do you draw the line? There’s tons of features in the browser. I don’t use bookmarks, so should I demand a version of Firefox without bookmarks? I don’t use profiles either.

Is it? How do you know?

In a way. I kinda moved away from developing using ReactJS because of its ties to Meta/Facebook.

After a long time trying to wrap my head around, I finally have jellyfin, are Services, with transmission running behind a vpn, all running seamlessly with a single docker compose file. It’s beautiful. I’m only sad I didn’t do it sooner. Fuck these companies.

Or maybe you’re underdressed.

Fake wood. FAKE

Any wood is edible if you puverize it…

Apparently not for everyone. I loved it, but my partner just didn’t get it.
