Can you explain? Is noone in Germany using Facebook and WhatsApp?

I used something like this for a few weeks (using tgtg for home assistant and doing the notification with it). After about 4-6 weeks they forced my account into a 'needs to verify everytime' mode where the tgtg integration could not log in again and I had to solve a captcha everytime I started the app. 😐

It was sarcasm.

But you could ride a bike! Which is really fun! In the winter, when there is heavy snow, or even on rainy summer days.

I don't get that some people just don't understand that it's sometimes just really inconvenient to not use a car, at least for some people. Please let them use cars without blaming them for doing so...? 🥺

You can use DNS-01 with duckdns to get certificates! Here are the docs on how to set that up with traefik.

About the wireguard but no other VPN - that's a phone problem, as it (at least android) only allows one VPN type connection at once. But one could set it up in a way that uses wireguard on the phone to connect to your home network and than use a proxy running there that does the other VPN connection. Also routing all mobile traffic using wireguard on a foreign WiFi network (or something) through your home network is basically the same as using a commercial VPN, if the goal is that the 'owner' of the foreign WiFi does not see your traffic.

So it's their fault your argument didn't work as expected because their job requires driving?

That's why I generally divide people into two groups: assholes and not assholes.

Just use the bus, duh.

'just' 49€, and that's the problem.

I'm not sure who you mean by 'we' but I guess it was not you. Greetings from Germany.

So the rich get to procreate and the poor die out? Genius!

Small dogs are annoying, too, in terms of barking.

I generally agree with you, but I think a lot of people are concerned about the nuclear waste and not the power plants but don't realize that.

It's usually this

Totaly valid choice!

Personally I would create one borg repo for every server I backup. But I also use borgbase, which encourages that by default.

About the backup of the datase - use mysqldump and store that. You can also do it like this:

    
mysqldump [...] | borg create [...] -


  

The - tells borg to use stdin as the content you want to store.

Lastly there is a pull mode in borg, that way you could run one script on one host to backup all your servers. You would need to run mysqldump over ssh then.

Edit:

You can use one repo for all servers, make sure to use prefixes, so that you can use --glob-archives with borg prune, if not you might get old backups cleaned out that you want to keep.

You can selfhost bitwarden, there's also vaultwarden, an open bitearden api implementation. You could host this on an internal-only server. But you also can sync your single password file with a lot devices and use keepass, I just find that a bit annoying. You also cannot share some passwords with your relatives easily that way.

Don't copy your private key to your laptop, generate a new one and add its public key to the same user. Also use a different key for every remote host. (or don't, but that's kind of like using the same password for all your accounts)

No worries! I wasn't judging 😬

Gitlab also has issues, error tracking via sentry and much more. If you want only something nice to host your code go with Gitea, if you also want to manage your project or do auto releases, use gitlab.

Gitlab can be registration only, so noone else can see your code crimes (when self-hosted)
