Ah yes that makes sense. I was taken aback by my latest install of freepbx. I feel it wasn’t as aggressive during the Digium days but it definitely left a bad taste in my mouth.

I heard good things about free switch, although it seems like a paradigm change. I’ll have to check it out.

Interesting - why avoid asterisk?

I looked into fusion to play with but I’ve been using asterisk casually since like the 00s with no issues.

You may have facts but there are like 10 people here saying they won’t buy a Tesla so…

I wound up with gollum. Git based with a wiki format. Works well enough for my limited use.

Excellent! Nice work.

I don’t know what dns rebind is but once DNS A records are pointed to the right place then it’s just a matter of setting up the rest of your stuff.

Is that expected? Otherwise check to make sure DNS settings for the domain are correct (eg ns records dig NS example.com IIRC).

First off - you don’t explicitly say so I just want to double check - you’re not using example.com as the actually domain correct?

If not the next thing to do would be to check out what DNS is doing. You can use the dig command to see what IP address is being returned for the domains you’re trying to hit.

dig +trace may be useful as well.

When you copy /home make sure you get the “hidden” files. They start with a “.” and some programs ignore them by default. That’s also where most configuration files are.

Check out rsync -avz

I like monit. It’s simple to setup and pretty flexible.

I got a little curious too and just did a small amount of digging. The DHS latest report (Q2 FY 2023) can be found here:

https://www.dhs.gov/immigration-statistics/special-reports/legal-immigration

“About 11,700 refugees were admitted to the United States in FY 2023 Q2 (Table 2), a 113 percent increase from FY 2022 Q2, when only about 5,500 refugees were admitted.”

So about 4000 a month, 1000 per week and 150 per day.

That includes countries other than South America:

“76 percent of refugees arrived from the top five countries of nationality: Democratic Republic of Congo, Burma, Syria, Afghanistan, and Colombia“

I haven’t found a great source on illegal immigration yet.

Edit: I got also got curious about the scale of this number so I looked up births per day (from some random sites) in the US and it seems like that’s about 10,000. Number of deaths per day seems to be around 8,000. So a net of about 2,000 people are added to the US per day “naturally”.

Last edit: Found some info by the cbp: https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/nationwide-encounters

Looks like an increase but nothing crazy. I don’t know what an “encounter” is either.

I’m here kinda often - looks like orange site is yc. Never seen the hostility displayed by OP towards it here though. In fact the only time I see links there tend to be via the mirroring bots.

No man. McDonald’s used to be cheap, fast and decent. The original burger in 1955 was 15 cents, or about $1.75 today. Don’t forget how far things have fallen lol

Man I went to the drive through after work one day, got a few things, and holy shit how is it almost $30?!

Unfortunately these days to get the old prices you have to use their app. Fortunately (at least for me) it works pretty well and it might actually be better value than it used to be.

There’s nothing really bad with PiHole but I moved from it to AdGuard, both on proxmox. The UI brought me in, makes management a bit easier. It also supports DoH right out of the box.

Try em both. See what you think.

I just spent a week evaluating all the popular choices to document an overlay network I’m standing up. All I want is a simple markdown interface to write notes in. My goal was something with a very simple UI, markdown, and very light weight.

MediaWiki, Bookstack, and WikiJS (or JSWiki) were good but they were too much for what I needed. I ended up with stumbling on gollum and really like it. It’s very very simple, fast, and clean. I wrote a one line cronjob and now I’m backed up to gitlab.

In the interest of pedantry; TSLA doesn’t declare dividends.

Yea. Planes can glide. Airline checkrides don’t typically include gliding.

Auditing is nothing more than reading the code. Give it a read and make sure you understand everything it’s doing.

This is a great lesson on trust as well. I can tell you I did an audit and it all looks good but does that really have any value?

Huh…so there’s currently no open source search engine out there? I see a few crawlers, and some UIs the crawlers can use but no one project consolidating the two.

You alluded to this already but ESP32 et al is really awesome but they (and arduino) are microcontrollers, not mini pcs like a raspi which have very different purposes.

You CAN run a webserver on a microcontroller but you’re essentially writing a program to do so. On a raspi you’re installing a full OS and then installing apps (nginx, Apache, jellyfin etc).

Conversely raspi has GPIO which can be used to easily interface with electronics just like the ESP32 but now you’re stuck maintaining a whole os to make your LED blink.
