  • I think there’s some misunderstanding

    I get how IPv6 works, I got a /48 from my ISP. The problem is that I have some 15 devices here that I have to refer to in DNS and either I have to change their static IPs or I have to change their IPs in DNS if the prefix ever changes (it shouldn’t, because I pay for them to not do that). My laptop, phone and desktop do not get a static IPv6 and use the privacy extension. Is that not how you’re supposed to do it?



  • Very useful, but I don’t understand concept 1, “Don’t pick numbers”.

    If I’m right, it’s basically saying don’t do stuff manually, just let the computer do it. I kind of disagree with this. All of my fixed devices have a fixed IP that I manually assigned and derived from the original v4 schema I also have. For example 192.168.x.y becomes prefix::y

    Am I misunderstanding something?











  • If my ISP didn’t constantly break my network from their side, I’d have effectively no downtime and nearly zero maintenance. I don’t live on the bleeding edge and I don’t do anything particularly experimental and most of my containers are as minimal as possible

    I built my own x86 router with OpnSense Proxmox hypervisor Cheapo WiFi AP Thinkcentre NAS (just 1 drive, debian with Samba) Containers: Tor relay, gonic, corrade, owot, apache, backups, dns, owncast

    All of this just works if I leave it alone


  • I’m going to whip out my 12 hour Oblivion retrospective that I watched in one sitting as evidence to the contrary to support his point: This video is padding, it’s very slow and it doesn’t really get to that many points.

    It is OK to criticize media, even if you enjoyed it. This video seems to be long-form for the sake of being long-form, not because it has a lot of ground to cover. I don’t particularly care, it mostly ran in the background, but it’s a legitimate criticism.

    I’ve also personally noticed that I tend to click off 10-minute videos in 2 minutes if they don’t get to a point or say something interesting, because the trend is that it’s pushing for time to keep you engaged to show you more ads and it’s a huge waste of my time. Whatever that video eventually gets around to saying could’ve been a twitter post.
