It's when someone's just as tall as you are, I think...

I definitely recommend it, particularly using docker compose. It's made it incredibly easy to add, remove, and modify software installs; keeping everything independent and isolated from each other.

This also makes backups and rolling back updates to individual projects much easier when you do run into problems.

Sometimes you recommend games to your friends because they're bad games. There's even content creators that explicitly look for 'games so bad they're good'.

Some games are so poorly designed or executed that the bugs and discontinuity become the fun, instead of just playing through them as designed. Horror games in particular just become funny when done poorly.

Hmm, I wonder if the failed updates are only direct installs vs docker.

I run two piholes, a primary on a rpi 3b running pios, and a secondary on my main server. Both are installed via docker and both updated without issue (besides the password thing).

I like having the primary DNS on a separate machine; it's kind of important and I like to mess with the main server a lot...

Interesting; I'll definitely have to keep that in mind. Much cheaper than getting basically a whole new set of hdds at almost $30/tb (new nas-grade drives, not referbs).

Thanks!

What hardware are you using to read/write tape, and what does that cost you?

I've got around 30tb that I need to shift off of a Drobo at some point so I can repurpose the drives into a proper RAID setup that isn't a closed source black-box from a dead company (that was a poor choice, 6 years ago 🙁). Keeping an eye out for solutions for when I get around to fixing that mess.

I wonder why so many people had issues with the v6 pihole update.

I pulled the new docker container and it ran overtop the previous version just fine. The only issue I had was I had the admin password set to empty via an env variable and that variable name changed. Took like 10 min to find and fix. The rest migrated perfectly.

Now I'm just waiting on orbital-sync to add v6 support, but that's just around the corner and not that critical.

I'm not convinced there will be an election in 2028...

95% of things I just don't expose to the net; so I don't worry about them.

Most of what I do expose doesn't really have access to any sensitive info; at most an attacker could delete some replaceable media. Big whoop.

The only thing I expose that has the potential for massive damage is OpenVPN, and there's enough of a community and money invested in that protocol/project that I trust issues will be found and fixed promptly.

Overall I have very little available to attack, and a pretty low public presence. I don't really host any services for public use, so there's very little reason to even find my domain/ip, let alone attack it.

Very right; even if America was to dramatically reverse course right now, it's going to take a long long time to rebuild the international relations that have been absolutely demolished. That's after rebuilding the federal government itself after purging the cancer that currently consumes it; and there's going to be a lot more destruction before that happens.

I wish you luck America; it's not going to be an easy journey.

Looking at openspeedtests github page, this immediately sticks out to me:

Warning! If you run it behind a Reverse Proxy, you should increase the post-body content length to 35 megabytes.

Follow our NGINX config

/edit;

Decided to spin up this container and play with it a bit myself.

I just used my standard nginx proxy config which enables websockets and https, but I didn't explicitly set the max_body_size like their example does. I don't really notice a difference in speed, switching between the proxy and a direct connection.

So, That may be a bit of a red herring.
