Networking Witch :neocat_flag_trans:

Loves #Tech, exact topic depends on my current hyper-fixation. I love all things #Kubernetes and #IPv6.

I regularly over-engineer my personal server and networking setup.
If it sounds overkill, I likely want to do it or hear about it!

You aren’t actually running IPv6, until you disable IPv4.

@nprofile…sr9k So true. Numbers are worth nothing, compared to quality connections.
I couldn’t care less about how many people follow me or I follow. It’s all about the few that I have good connections with, enrich my experience and bring a smile to my face :)

How are Boot Environments in #FreeBSD different from ZFS Checkpoints :neobot_confused:

I have no words for this.
These people live in such a different reality, I can’t comprehend how someone can not only think this, but also write it out in an email like that, with a straight face.

@nprofile…g4yp I have another somewhat hypothetical question:
If I run a chatmail server and people use it to write with people on classic email servers, then the chatmail messages are subject to normal spam filtering on the other side.
Couldn't that theoretically create a problem if many people do that at the same time, that the remote provider will think it's spam due to the amount of messages and the chatmail relay will end up getting its IP reputation destroyed?

@nprofile…g4yp Only thing of note is that I didn't understand until half way through setup that the script deploys chatmail to a remote server. So I ended up having the server deploy itself. :neobot_woozy:

@nprofile…g4yp Thank you! chatmail it shall be, then

2025-06-27 07:15:28 UTC

Looking into @nprofile…g4yp and I‘m confused what the upsides and downsides are of using a chatmail server or just an account on my Mailcow server. :neobot_woozy:

@nprofile…vdjy Hi! :neobot:
I am a bit of a networking nerd and love tinkering with all things IPv6 (and shitting on IPv4).
I also like playing with Kubernetes, because distributed compute is cool. Currently trying to build an IPv6-only cluster on some VPSes.
I also do many other self-hosting things and my favorite way to test something properly is to put it into production and see how it breaks (or not), as I've most recently done with some OpenBSD machines (they've been absolutely flawless)

2025-05-14 06:32:59 UTC

Cleaning robot. Call that kubelet, because it also keeps trying to reconcile the state of cleanliness.

2025-05-08 12:41:03 UTC

Why does my OpenBSD UpCloud VM get a different IPv6 address from the one in the web UI :neocat_sad:
What is OpenBSD cooking differently that doesn't want to play nice with their system?

@nprofile…sr9k I am using it to run @nprofile…9lej because I saw your success with running FediMeteo with it, and I can absolutely agree!

@nprofile…sr9k I've had the same feeling ever since I started working, though early one I couldn't properly articulate it.
I am here to find the best solution for a problem, not the one that sells best.
I'm currently reworking a Mastodon deployment at work, which got pushed through the door hardheartedly.
And in the process someone explained to me what they are using it for: Scheduled posts, only outgoing.
So the solution could have been solved in an afternoon with a snac2 install and a cronjob...

@nprofile…sr9k I'll be interested to hear about your experiences with it. I only ever tried Garage, which was nice, but I'm interested in SeaweedFS.

@nprofile…73zh Thank you! The installation was very straight forward and it's been working great so far :)!

@nprofile…73zh I installed snac2 for the first time yesterday and I didn't realize there were version tags, so I installed from master.
Scheduled posts were actually the core feature that I needed and was happy to find, so it seems like I accidentally did the right thing :D

2025-04-15 16:21:36 UTC

What if I served different profile pictures via IPv4 and IPv6, so I can always see which stack other instances used to cache it :JanaThink:

@nprofile…0nz2 Closest thing I know is that Kagi has a Small Web filter, though that is limited to their own index that people can add pages to on Github, so it's kinda limited
https://blog.kagi.com/small-web
And I vaguely remember someone on Fedi creating a search engine which I think had a similar goal, but I don't remember anything else about it anymore, sadly.

I love discovering personal blogs and websites.
No algorithm.
No competing anything.
Just a person, putting out what they want.
It's beautiful.

Why is it impossible to find a good source for DRM free ebooks in English?
I have a good site for German ebooks (Beam Shop), not perfect, but significantly better than any English sites I've seen anywhere...
I don't want to have to read paper books just because I can't find ebooks anywhere, an eReader is so much more convenient :blobcat_not_like_this:

@nprofile…m8mr All of that is amazing! Great work, I'm exited to see it in action!
I assume for it to work either WiFi of WiFi scanning needs to be enabled though, right?

@nprofile…leww How dare you just propose such a simple and logical solution to a problem I've been debating on and off for a while now?

I should finally start doing something with my IPv6 GUA space.

I personally have been pleasently surprised about the level of interaction between everyone, no matter the follower count or similar.
Though I realize that that might be due to the bubble of people I now communicate in and it's not necessarily a universal experience, so that's why its interesting to hear about another perspective.
Though when I used to be on commercial social media, this was probably the main thing that drove me away from them back then.

@nprofile…m8mr Yeah, I'm aware that the desktop landscape is far behind the mobile space.
But I'm not getting around using some desktop system or Linux as a server OS, so I'm currently trying to figure out how to make Linux as secure as possible with the tools available to me, while separating things that need the most protection onto my GrapheneOS phone.
It's interesting to know though, that the ARM Macs are a good option though, at least in stock configuration.

@nprofile…sr9k I first read it as "Today I made a scheduled mistake" and I was very confused, though it would also fit the described situation :D

@nprofile…m8mr Could those improvements you are making to the kernel be reasonably be taken over to a desktop OS? And would you say that makes sense?

@nprofile…kp7t Other people have already mentioned how what you are asking for is possible exactly.
I just wanted to quickly mention, that manual numbering like that is not really necessary or recommended for IPv6.
Each interface will generate one v6 address that is static, based on the delegated prefix + a number based on the interface MAC address. As that address is static, suffix is also static, even if the prefix were to change.
