I’ve been considering setting up matrix or xmpp, can I ask what is motivating you to switch?

Caddy config (“Caddyfile”) is super easy to configure. In some cases it can be just one line to reverse proxy something. Search for a caddyfile example and you’ll see.

I actually did this instead of tailscale first; installing tailscale on a pfsense router was a challenge, iirc i had to find and install the freebsd tailscale pkg from the command line because the plugin doesn’t give the option to connect to a non-tailscale control plane.

After I did that and connected to my headscale server (on my vps) I could ping pfsense’s local ip over the tailnet, but couldn’t get any traffic out from pfsense. Turns out I had forgotten the pfsense tailscale plugin automatically sets up outbound rules for you.

That was a rabbit hole I didn’t feeling like falling down, so I turned off headscale and just used tailscale account and the normal pfsense tailscale plugin. But it’s there and it does work fine if I ever wanted to go figure out the outbound traffic rules.

Headscale is the tailscale backend server

We’re renaming mexican standoffs 😂

My understanding is they are flushable (technically), it’s just not good to flush them because they don’t disintegrate or break down in water like toilet paper does. So it leads to clogs in pipes or sewer filtering equipment.

I have caddy on a vps that serves as a tailscale exit node and also reverse proxies over the tailnet. My pfsense router is also in the tailnet and exposes some subnet ip addresses to the tailnet. So for example I have public domain watch.example.com hits my caddy and gets proxied to internal IP 192.168.31.48 which is my jellyfin docker.

Idk how complicated the internal wiring is but maybe a solution here is a pair of shelly relays. One for the ac and one for the compressor fan. Then you could turn them on/off separately over wifi based on whatever logic you come up with.

Unfortunately we’re not in the same position as 100 years ago. This time the evil guys can just fuck off to another country in their private jet.

Yeah but fmla is not paid. It just protects your job for when you get back.

California at least has PFL (paid family leave) runs concurrent with FMLA for, iirc, 12 weeks. Also, it applies to fathers, too.

I cross the border by car every day. I just assumed this was already happening.

I owe about $2500 on a loan of $3500 at 3.4% fixed from 2015. It was on hold until I graduated in 2017 and then it was on hold during covid. The monthly payment is about $26.

That bitch is going to be autopaying until I die.

For real tho anyone know a good guide to hosting an instance?

Are they taking donations 👀

Shout out to pdfgear.

Does almost all the pdf file manipulation anyone needs and it’s free.

Indeed. I have done so.

Seems like a cool idea but I feel like if you’re buying rack hardware you should be able/willing to buy a metal frame to house your stuff in.

I don’t know too much about snap (I literally haven’t had to touch my immich setup) but as far as I remember when I set it up that was snap’s whole thing - it maintains and updates itself with minimal administrative oversight.

I was in the same spot about 3 years ago and I started with Unraid. Got me into docker and dipping my toes into command line stuff.

Honestly though you’re going to quickly outgrow your old laptops…
