What’s going on on your servers?
I had to bite the bullet and buy new drives after the old ones filled up. I went for used enterprise SSDs on eBay and eventually found some that had an okay price, even though it’s been much more than last time I got some. Combined with Hetzner’s hefty price increase some month ago, my hobby has become a bit more expensive again thanks to the ever growing appetite of companies building more data centers to churn more energy.
Anyways, the drives are in, my Ansible playbook to properly encrypt them and make them available in Proxmox worked, so that was smooth (ignoring the part where I disassembled the Lenovo tiny from the rack, open it, SSD out, SSD in, close it and put it back in only to realize I put in the old ssd again).
Any changes in your hardware setups? Did the price increase make you reconsider some design decisions? Let us know!
It took me about 50 YouTube videos to get me to a point where I believe I now understand what a reverse proxy is and how I should use one.
Right ?! Networking is voodoo witchcraft.
I was bored and decided to actually read wtf the deal is with IPv6 since my ISP gave it but never bother to know more.
All my devices can reach the ipv6 internet without me touching it, so I thought at least I could learn how to replicate my pretty simple lab but with v6.
3 days later I still have no clue how to assign static addresses properly. What do you mean each device have multiple addresses?? Android (google) didn’t support dhcpv6? Wtf is SLAAC ?
The DHCPv6 on Android Soap Opera as they called it, pretty fun read.
Also the folks at IPv6 sub seem to be majority professional because they can actually parse the RFC spec and treated it like mandatory Ed. Pretty nice and welcoming comm all thing considered.
It’s a whole rabbit hole and I still don’t know if my IPv6 is good IPv6 or not, and with bottom of the barrel equipment looking for guide is a pain. IPv6 content in general is pretty sparse even within the self hosting comms.
