The IT paradox :

-“Why am I paying for IT? everything runs fine”

-“Why am I paying for IT? nothing works”

Yeah but these pesky workers cut into profits because you have to pay them.

Not really. If I play a game until 21:30, I am too stimulated to go to bed at 21:45.

If I browse Lemmy, I can fall asleep with my phone in my hand at 20:00.

It looks more like its boiled chicken.

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?

I’ve been with my partner for 13 years and I’d say you still change a lot between 34 and 43, as you put it. The difference is that as we get older, we are usually more accepting of all the little things we used to find annoying.

I find that my core values are stronger, but everything else is less annoying overall. It makes accepting that your partner is changing a lot easier to deal with, so long as their aren’t in contradiction with your core values.

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

I tried to use my phone without a cover, but it’s so thin that I don’t like the feeling. So I went back to my cover only for the added thickness.

It is already just another work. Electronics and software development has never that accessible before.

Grandma can pick up an Arduino, a few components and create a fully automated garden if she so choose, without having prior experience.

Engineers are people like everyone else and some people have no qualms fucking over other people for money.

If it catches on, these seats will be the base price and seated places will become premium. It will impact everyone that travels by plane.

Bernie has put his money where his mouth is for decades and decades.

This is why people give him a pass

Moving is expensive. If you barely scrape by, this id not an option for the vast majority of these people.

LLM don’t know that they are wrong. It just mimics how we talk, but there is no conscious choice behind the words used.

It just tries to predict which word to use next, trained on a ungodly amount of data.

Let’s be real. A company comes in and offer you a life changing, fuck you money that covers the rest of your life.

Very few people can resist that, me included.

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?

People are running in all kinds of bugs with Windows, just look at their forums.

The major difference is that people have been using Windows all their life and they’ve learned how to circumvent their bugs and hiccup.

Switching to Linux means people will have to learn a new flow and it turns off a lot of people, simply by the fact that they have been using the same OS all their life and can’t bother to learn something new.

And that’s all fine. But to go in your direction, when more manufacturers will offer 100-120$ off on Linux computers (because you don’t pay the Windows license), it will probably boost Linux adoption rate.
