Basically it’s a URL that you call with curl. You can set up a crown job to call every day or as often as you need. The URL contains the domain name or subdomain, you dynamic public IP (not CNAT), and the API token. This way you Domain always points to your dynamic IP.
Namecheap, and I guess other registrars too, has an API that you can call from your server to update your IP address in their DNS. It’s super easy. No need to pay for a static IP address. At least in my case ei already use my domain for other things.
And since when is the easiest way the funnest way? :P
My ISP uses CGNAT but I can ask for a dynamic IP address for free. I sent them an email and got a reply in less than a week. I can also pay extra like 2.50€ per month or something for a fixed IP. I found that quite reasonable.
Good to know 🫣
Trying to smoothly orchestrate prowlarr, radarr, jellyfin, and transmission (via Proton vpn), using a big beautiful docker compose file. It’s been working OK but not without roadbumbs and tough learnings. Keep messing up directory permissions one way or another.
Next step is setting up fail2ban on my public facing jellyfin to control things a little better. Everything is hosted at home, and I don’t want to use cloud flare tunnels, are streaming video is technically not allowed in them.
If you have more good tips on securing a home server, let me know!
Also, this is all running on an ancient 2012 mac mini running Ubuntu. Slow as molasses and sometimes the fans make a noise. I should start looking into back-up solutions, at least for the configs.
Is it? How do you know?
But the dust will settle on everything, including the shelves you just cleaned?
I think most dust is dead skin and skin mites. Then in some areas there might be most dirt (entrance) and fibers (where you do laundry).
Not legal in many countries
The EU officials are not elected by the people. Some of them are absolute idiots. The people pushing for this will continue making adjustments to Chat Control until one of the countries changes sides. The media is absolutely right.
We absolutely need this to be illegal. The discount coupon they offered to customer ws insulting.
It’s one thing to become obsolete because a new technology appears. It’s another thing for the rug to pulled from under you. You can still use old tech just fine, but not if the publisher decides to brick all your devices.
That’s the reason why I never buy a smart device I don’t control.
Crazy solutions just make you stand out. A basic mask is much better.
Although lots of idiots into child abuse stuff are dumb as doors, this is true. Natural selection comes into play and they will find other ways. In the meantime we collectively lose our basic rights forever.
I don’t know if there has ever been this level of discrepancy between availability vs access to aid in a conflict. There’s lots of aid available, but Gaza has zero access to it.
Which is where? Generations of Israeli were born there…
The fad has passed. Now the trend is using random objects as microphones.
I have seen a few you tubers jokingly show that it was disconnected. Because yes, at some point even that became a meme. But I couldn’t find an example off the top of my head.
I typically wake up naturally nd go to bed not too late. So I can say I go from waking up to being awake in less than a minute. This sometimes causes me to have insomnia if it happens at 4AM because I become incredibly awake.
