Love these guys for VFX but man this video is obnoxious.

Thank you very much for the pointers! There is so much info at different levels out there that it’s encouraging to get recommendations.

Gicen the risk of locking myself out (have been prone to do that even IRL) I may limit firewalling to times where I have physical access.

Reverse proxy sounds intriguing though. I’ve got a domain already, so just missing… well… the rest (:

Actually, I was wondering:

I have used tailscale, and lately netbird, for remote access and it has worked well for Jellyfin streaming, ssh/rsync and accessing other WebUIs. All with non-default passwords of course.

However I have not set up any of the internal network hardening like OPNSense, VLANs or ReverseProxy. Is it safe to configure these remotely or am I risking locking myself out?

This is such a nice overview. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for sharing the song, that was lovely.

Quick Markdown formatting tip: In most flavours you can add 2 spaces at the end of a line to force a line break. Then you can format your block quotes a little prettier without empty newlines:

oh fuck you

fuck you elon, fuck you sam,
fuck you sundar pichai
you said the chance

around 1 in 5 – was that hype?

You’re right, that it doesn’t just work as conveniently out-of-the-box on Codeberg. However you do not have to self-host: You merely have to apply to get access to their hosted Woodpecker instance at ci.codeberg.org.

See docs here if you want to try it out: https://docs.codeberg.org/ci/

Onboarding requires a few manual steps, as to prevent the abuse of Codeberg’s limited resources. You will need to request access by filling out this form. After submitting, a Codeberg volunteer will review your request and grant you access if your use case is appropriate.

Edit: added quote from docs

codeberg.org (which runs on Forgejo) offers a nice ci solution: Woodpecker.

I signed up for a surfing course recently, where I had to enter my phone number as part of the contact info. I was pleasantly surprised that they sent info via Signal after I signed up.

hmm today I’m getting “access denied” instead of a 404 like yesterday. I am in Europe, too but maybe Reuters doesn’t like my VPN.
