Just a geek, finding my way in the fediverse.

  • Which game do I get that's under 20GB?

    Where is API tooling lacking ?

  • Postman locked all my locally saved requests away after an update unless I created an account with them. I wasn't updating very often because every update made it shittier.

    Fuck postman.

    I've been all in on Bruno ever since.

  • What do you use for your personal photos/videos backups? Cloud service? Local external drive? Etc

    Jump

  • Primary is three (encrypted) rotating external drives with one always offsite. Secondary is occasional backup of the most important data to backblaze.

    I have some debatably important text data like my Silverbullet.md notes and project code that also get auto pushed to a private git repo every night (if changed) in addition to the regular backups.

  • Thanks fri... wait, you're not who I replied to. Do you have your own rolodex of websites?

  • Can you search your rolodex for "caddy tls configuration" for me?

  • You're right, that was quite a hassle : )

    Glad you got it sorted.

  • I want to preface this with the fact that I am definitely NOT a networking expert so... don't trust anything I say.

    My situation is a bit different because I am using Tailscale, though I have it on the list to be replaced in the future.

    When you Wireguard to your LAN, do subsequent DNS requests go through the VPN? Sounds like you're looking into that route based on your third point above. If so, can you just add a static DNS resolution to your LAN router that points to your Caddy SSL terminator/reverse proxy? This assumes a static IP for your host.

    That's what I've done. On my router I've set a static DNS entry of silverbullet.mydomain.com -> 10.0.0.101 (where *.101 is the static IP of my internal host/Caddy). This allows everything to resolve correctly when I'm physically attached to my LAN but also when connecting remotely via Tailscale.

    It may not be elegant, but it avoids the hassle / extra config of a local DNS server as well as the need to manage host routes on each device.

    EDIT: My router is running OpenWRT but I think most consumer grade routers support static DNS routes... but I could be wrong.

  • I've been doing the SSL with Caddy and Let's Encrypt via CertBot. Extra work but not too bad once you figure it out (and take notes since I forget by the time the renewal comes around :)

    I still need to find time to set up auto renewal... One day

  • Hunters: is camo just cosplay?

    Jump

  • Yeah, the smart ones do it from a road at night with a spotlight... no camo required there either.

    ... I honestly can't decide if I should tag this with an /s or not because it is 100% a thing that happens (also 100% illegal, especially when off-season, no license, and you throw in the case of natty ice, but when has that stopped a determined redneck)

    Rising Fuel Prices Are Making Return‑to‑Office Mandates Harder to Defend

    Jump

  • My work will cover public transit costs for commutes but not gas.

    About 75% of us are in the US so... No public transit to cover. Coincidence?

    They actually may only cover that cost for US employees... I need to ask my EU colleagues. That'd be a real "fuck you" if so.

  • What is with the pro-AI posts lately?

    Jump

  • One of the first things I say when non tech people ask me about ""AI"" is :

    "The term AI here is just marketing wank"

  • That has the secondary effect of shutting off the electricity, water, air, oil, or whatever else ... It just takes a little longer.

  • checks if I made this comment while drunk

    No, not me... Unless my drunk self has an alt I'm not aware of.

    Exactly the same situation here on every part of your comment.
