Yeah, the Flint 3 seems like a worse overall router when it comes to computational power and chipset. The only thing it has going for it is WiFi 7 (instead of 6) and 2.5 G ethernet on all ports. The Flint 3 is also more power hungry, which isn’t great given the high energy costs in Europe.

Most people don’t benefit from WiFi 7 (WiFi 6 is already good enough for almost everything) and if you want more than 2x 2.5G ports, consider getting a (managed) switch to extend the router with.

While that works, it will use more electricity than an all-in-one ARM based router. Depending on prices and renewable/fossil mixture where you live, this may or may not be a concern.

GL.Inet products that use Mediatek chipsets are great since you can usually flash standard OpenWRT on them. I would avoid routers with different chipsets since they are unlikely to get proper support.

(Though I can’t say that my MT-6000 is cheap, but it is an extremely capable router. That is top of the line though, they have cheaper stuff.)

The solution is to not use Http based validation of the cert, but use dns based validation. Possibly combined with a wildcard cert for your whole domain. This is what I do for internal services on my LAN, along with split DNS so that the internal services aren’t even listed in public DNS.

What is that log analysis tool you are using in the picture? Looks pretty neat.

It is common custom to indicate quotes, with either “quotes” or for a longer quote a

block quote

The latter can be done by prefixing the line with a > here on lemmy (uses the common markdown syntax).

Doing either of this help avoid ambiguity.

Agreed, I run arch on my desktop and laptop, because it is more stable (in the sense of fewer bugs, things like suspend/resume works reliably for example) than any other distro I have used.

But on my VPS and my Pi I run Debian because it is more stable (in the sense of fewer upgrades that could break things). I can enable unattended upgrades there, which I would never do on my Arch system (though it is incredibly rare for those to break).

Also: if someone said they were a (self proclaimed) “semi noob” I would not recommend Arch. I have used Linux since 2002, and as my main OS since 2006. (Furthermore I’m a software developer in C/C++/Rust.) While Arch is a great distro, don’t start with Arch.

That seems to be for dns resolving, not for ddns? Or am I missing something?

Most registrars also run DNS servers as part of the fee you pay for the domain. Usually they have an API. You can just use that to implement Dynamic DNS, there are even often tools for it. Do a search for your DNS registrar and dyndns.

Afraid.org is better than DuckDNS. (DuckDNS is not reliable and have been slow or down a lot.)

But it is still American.

Let’s Encrypt is meant yo be used with automated certificate renewal using the ACME protocol. There are many clients for this. Both standalone and built into e.g. Caddy, Traefik and other software that does SSL termination.

So this specific concern doesn’t really make sense. But that doesn’t mean I really see a use case for it either, since it usually makes more sense to access resources via a host name.

Unless they are in different cities they wouldn’t be safe from a fire, lightning strike, earth quake/flood/tsunami/typhon/hurricane/etc (remove whichever ones are not relevant to where you live).

That seems like a really big downside to me. The whole point of locking down your dependencies and using something like renovate is that you can know exactly what version was used of everything at any given point in time.

If you work in a team in software, being able to exactly reproduce any prior version is both very useful and consider basically required in modern development. NixOS can be used to that that to the entire system for a Linux distro (it is an interesting project but there are parts of it I dislike, I hope someone takes those ideas and make it better). Circling back to the original topic: I don’t see why deploying images should be any different.

I do want to give Komodo a try though, hadn’t heard about it. Need to check if it supports podman though.

I haven’t used Komodo, but would it commit to the updated docker files to git? Or just use the “latest” tag and follow that? In the latter case you can’t easily roll back, nor do you have a reproducible setup.
