If the apartment/house layout is good for the roomba, it is a great tool. It doesn’t replace vacuuming and floor washing, but it does reduce the dirtness on the floor.

So back to cable packages. Fucking dumb

If you stick to popular free software, the jank is limited.

The Linux userspaces have a lot of enthusiastic people that create their own software and share it, and thus it seems like there is lot of janky stuff (because there is).

It feels like Windows has been captured by corporations and so the market is competitive. There isn’t much space for enthusiast developpers to tackle a different vision of a popular software.

So yeah, I agree with you, lots of janky software in Linux, but that’s the beauty of it IMO. If you stick to popular softwares, the jank is somewhat equivalent to Windows.

You’ve used Windows for so long that you don’t remember how it was when you first started using it.

This isn’t different than what you are doing with Linux. The flow gets better and better and you will acquire the experience needed to navigate the issues. It takes time, that’s all.

Same, and I use portainer to manage my docker compose stacks.

I can bring down a container without bringing down the whole stack of services.

It’s not a call for violence, so that’s cool beans

React tutorial are like that. You create a simple HTML page with a script and the script generates everything.

I had to do a simple webpage for an embedded webserver and the provider of the library recommended preact, the lightweight version of react. Having no webdev experience, I used preact as recommended and it is a nightmare to use and debug.

There was a video a long while ago where a cyclist got a ticket for not riding in the bike lane.

So he filmed himself riding in the bike lanes and crashing into the parked cars there and one of them was a cop.

It’s clear that politicians don’t give a fuck about cyclists.

This is like the 2 extremes. China with terrible human rights violation and sloppy construction and cities where even thinking about mass public transit is akin to killing puppies.

Sometimes, people do that. But using 0/1 is explicit enough since you can refer to a line as ‘1’ or ‘0’ for high/low on the hardware as well

I am a lazy dev (not really, clients always want fast code), so I use the provided HAL libraries 99.9% of the time.

But I have seen code where someone would write something like

gpio_write(PIN_X, true) 

and it always stood out to me.

I am working with C in embedded designs and I still use 1 or 0 for a bool certain situations, mostly lines level.

For whatever pea-brained reason, it feels yucky to me to set a gpio to true/false instead of a 1/0.

My uneducated kernel take. Flexibility is acceptable and desirable in small projects or low impact projects.

When the majority of the internet and a good chunk of PC are dependent on your project, predictability and stability is much more important than flexibility.

Destiny 2 gun play is god damn good, but the new player experience and the monetization is downright pathetic.

Thanks for the info, I appreciate it.

I am a newbie so I am not sure I understand correctly. Tell me if my understanding is good.

Your Pi-Hole act as your DNS, so the VPS use the pi-hole through the tunnel to check for the translation IP, as set through the DNS directive in the wg file. For example, my pi-hole is at 10.0.20.5, so the DNS will be that address.

On the local side, the pi-hole is the DNS for all the services on that subnet and each service automatically populate their host name on pi-hole. I can configure the DNS server in my router/firewall (OPNSense in my case)

So when I ping service.example.com, it goes through the VPS, which queries the pi-hole through the tunnel and translates the address to the local subnet IP if applicable.

So when I have the wg connection active and my pi-hole is the DNS, every web request will go through the pi-hole. If the IP address is inside the range of AllowedIPs, the connection will go through the tunnel to the service, otherwise, the connection will go through outside the wg tunnel.

Does that make sense?

How does WG work on the local side of the network? Do you need to connect each VM/CT to the wireguard instance?

I am currently setting up my home network again, and my VPS will tunnel through my home network and NPM will be run locally on the local VLAN for services and redirect from there.

I wonder if there is any advantage to run NPM on the VPS instead of locally?

It is a lot simpler nowadays. Download Caddy, put a 2 line config and you are good to go.

Yes, but since he is working on the product itself, it’s heavily biased.

He can use the app without leaving a review.

You talk about vibecoding buddy, you think they SSH into anything?
