Small update on my custom #NAS project; Last week I officially factory reset the #Synology and have put it up for sale. Such a good feeling to finally be getting rid of that thing.
Last week I also got the #FractalDesign#PC case I had been waiting on a restock for, and I have transplanted the NAS over. Some final (SATA power) cables are expected to come in today so I can install the drives I used to have in the Synology. We're getting there!
Friends. It seems that in my new place, the ISP has all incoming ports blocked. This blows for several reasons, but they centralize on the fact that I self-host several services.
So what are my options? What are the most user-friendly and privacy-respecting ways to punch a hole and keep sharing my stuff with the WAN?
Wiosenny, gruntowny upgrade domowego serwera (czy tam homelaba) zakończony.
Totalna przesiadka z HP 800 Mini (który niedawno tutaj sprzedawałem) na nieco większe minipc asrock Deskmini X300 z procesorem AMD Ryzen 7 5700G. Obudow Asrocka jest o tyle ciekawa, że pozwala zainstalować dwa dyski NVMe (niestety, brak raida1 hw dla nvme) oraz dwa dyski 2,5". Te dwa ostatnie sloty wykorzystałem na instalację dwóch dysków SATA 2,5" 2 TB, które działają w raid1
My name is JC. I'm a former tech #journalist, having run the phones vertical for Tom's Guide for over two years. I'm still a writer, just not in a public-facing position.
I remember a presentation that John Strand at Black Hills Information Security did that outlined a 5 year plan to get into cybersecurity. It changed my life! One of the things that stuck with me was his story about Henry Rollins and building your own community. That's why I started SOCpupIT (pronounced sock puppet) so I could find my community.
It's the 3rd weekend of our Cyversity weekend get together for folks who are busy during the work week or are having trouble making connections to folks also starting out in #cybersecurity. We're always looking to meet and help out folks new to cybersecurity so stop on by our Discord server! We meet 9:00am PST/PDT every Saturday!
Every week we try to look over an entry level job posting and workshop how we can tailor our resumes to match watch companies are looking for.
We also have a Tech Topic portion where we present anything that's interesting to us in cybersecurity. I've been doing a lot of Linux based stuff because that's my jam.
Finally, we have a Help Desk portion for for who are having any trouble setting things up in their #homelab, need advice on what to do to get started, next projects, and other things they need help with.
Time for the regular backups test, and things are still looking pretty great. Borg has been working pretty damned well, and continues to work well... #homelab
But seriously: Last one for the Homelab, designated as a Ceph node. It's an Intel 12100T, the 35W TDP variant, on a board with 2.5 GB NIC. The case will arrive tomorrow. Once it is set up and deployed, I will finally be through with HW changes for the homelab.
I can see why #proxmox would be considered more of a hobbyist hypervisor!! Wanted to pass through an igpu and wow the hurdles I had to.. Still not really working right. Partly cause it's pretty niche thing I wanted to do but the process itself is pretty involved.
I have been struggling with #Traefik for the better part of two days now.
Any services in my #Kubernetes cluster that happens to be hosted on port 80 can be accessed through Traefik. (whoami, nginx)
Any service where the container is not running the service on port 80 gives me a 503. (jellyfin, teamcity, even an ingress to traefik's admin panel on port 8080)
I cant for the life of me understand what is going on. My deployment, service, and ingress definitions all line up.
I've tried connecting the dots by name, and by explicit port number.
What are people’s thoughts on distro/window manager/desktop I should go with? I’ve used Linux for many years but mostly server & command line stuff. Much of that time I’ve used a Mac to access stuff. However I have now got a 2019 Thinkpad X1 to play around with. Casual type use, out of the office, maybe kept at side of armchair etc. #manjaro#fedora#kde#gnome#xfce#linux#Homelab
Hello, I am Mark aka Simple Nomad. I have been on the Internet before there was really an Internet. I've worked as a researcher remotely since 1999 for the last 5 jobs with the word "security" in my title (once had the word "scientist"!) Current job at #GitLab the entire company is #AllRemote and I can say that This Is The Way.
I have an extensive #homelab with static public IPs running real services (including this Mastodon instance), this network is a work lab as well as a home base for NMRC (https://www.nmrc.org), a #hacker collective formed mid-90s which still has a few active members.
Personal blog is at https://www.markloveless.net. There you can read utter nonsense, and some extensive blogging on my #solar setup (no electric bill!) here in Texas. Yes this #hippy lives in Texas, I hate sports yet live 3.4 miles away from that atrocious giant stadium here in Arlington where the Cowboys are.
Time for the #introduction post. I’m Vlad, a functional human being that is currently working on a proprietary #distributed querying #SQL system, mostly written in #scala with a small bit of #rust. I used to tinker with #embedded and #homelab things before the pandemic and haven’t quite gotten back to it yet. I’d like to post some more #functional programming content, perhaps some #photography and definitely a few #shitpost about politics or the lame state of software engineering in companies…
Tried #gotosocial as the backend instance. It's behaving a little funny and it wasn't any easier to install than I thought it would be from the original #mastodon implementation. So I'm ganna start trying out all of these different ones to see which one I like the best.
