Yeah, if you run latest, there’s no need for renovate. I don’t though

I haven’t used Komodo yet, does it change the compose files in the repo as well? I thought it’s just reading, not writing. Personally I like the workflow of Merge Requests that Renovate provides.

Not sure what you mean with the second paragraph. Which config toml?

Make sure to not check in secrets in plaintext. git crypt is one way to encrypt secrets before checking them in.

Sounds interesting! I’ll give it a try

Interesting writeup, thanks! I thought maybe dropping connections with those user agents would be the best but idk. My sites have not been targeted yet fortunately.

To expose your stuff to the outside internet, you need to actively set port forward in your internet router, you won’t do that by accident.

Ouch!

Did autotune touch the interfaces?

Nice! Hosting your own Fedi stuff feels great.

I’m using the Hetzner nameservers, it’s not exactly DynDNS but they have a DNS API and I just have a cronjob set up that checks every five minutes if the IP is still correct and updates otherwise.

Using this in the cronjob: https://github.com/FarrowStrange/hetzner-api-dyndns

Don’t worry, I didn’t :)

Yes, but that’s a supported way to install Proxmox.

You have some options that aren’t in the installer e.g. full disk encryption

Your CPU should be perfectly capable of that. I ran Proxmox with some VMs and containers on an i5-2400 with 16GB RAM just fine.

You could run on bare Debian as well but virtualization will give you more flexibility. If you get a Zigbee Dongle or the like, you can pass it through to the VM Home Assistant is running in.

I don’t know MergeFS but usually the recommendation is ZFS.

Cool thread idea! TOR has already been mentioned, a relay seems to be save to run in most of the world.

This thread recently popped up and had some other nice ideas: https://lemmy.ca/post/40649656

Regardless of how you host Nextcloud, what you described is one thing I really like about Nextcloud: the major part of it being synced to several devices. As long as you have a computer with the desktop client that’s on every once in a while, your stuff is saved across different devices.

I’ve had a similar thing happen once btw, deleted the wrong server. It was “just” monitoring data, but I had spent a lot of effort building it properly. I eventually started over it, but knowing the whole thing is gone feels really bad.

Does it? I think it logs you out and after logging in again, you need to provide your encryption key/verify with other device again in order to access the history. Or wdym with breaking?

Ah! I don’t know what exactly these mean, would be interesting to see what Element says what those mean. I don’t think Element actually adds these to your messages etc but I don’t know the protocol enough.

Does IRC have performant voicechat?

Does it? On Android, it never asked me to grant location permission unless I try to share my location to another user. Similar with contacts and calendar, it’s working perfectly fine without them. Where exactly does it link those identifiers and with what?
