  • You can do all of those things with wireguard as well... I'm not seeing any benefit to running Tailscale/headscale.

  • If you don't have a static IP then you will automatically have a dynamic one. You don't need to ask for a dynamic IP as that is the default. And I'm no idiot, I've used dynamic DNS services for for over 20 years.

  • If you're going to do that you may as well cut out the extra server/service and run regular wireguard.

  • Tailscale is a service that relies on a third party to facilitate the VPN connection between your client and server. It is designed for people who don't want to or cannot forward ports. Your server and your client both talk to the Tailscale servers and traffic is routed that way.

  • Dynamic IP is one that changes. I think you meant static IP.

  • Recently commented on a different post about setting up a VPN. Check out firezone

    I don't recommend using Tailscale or anything that relies on a third party.

  • I can recommend firezone as well. Served me well before I decided to host my wireguard server on OPNsense.

    I still miss the super easy client setup from firezone! OPNsense really needs to make it easier.

  • I'll give you the second exception but I've never seen the first one used. However, you are missing the fact that in both of your examples you can use the subject as an action. To lunch is to eat lunch and to prom is the shorted version of promenade. White House is a proper noun and cannot be used the same way as your two examples.

  • Why he is even allowed work in government/politics after the Nixon incident is a huge mystery to me.

  • I wanted to comment on the title of the article and the fact that it is gramatically incorrect. Why didn't they use the word "invites"? The article uses the word in the first sentence. It's hard for me to enjoy journalism when it's filled with distracting mistakes like this. When your profession is writing why are these kind of mistakes allowed. If I made mistakes analogous to this in my career I would not be keeping my job very long.

  • Where do we draw the line? Is a stone chiseled wheel considered technology and could I appropriately post a picture. How about a steam engine? I was under the impression that this community was for news and info about new and upcoming technology. If this is not the community for that could somebody point me in the right direction?

  • Stop downloading all those free-to-play-pay-to-win games. Basically any app that is advertised for but free to use is going to maximize the amount of data they harvest and the number of "notifications"(ads) they send you.

  • It's my opinion that this kind of reporting is equivalent to soft / tabloid news that just feeds peoples carnal appetites. I wanted to post my original comment to gauge what others feel about this.

  • Not to make light of this story - I thought I was clicking on a story about somebody with three arms. Its too early.

  • Stories out of UttarPredesh aren't news at this point, they're just updates in the kill-log feeding morbid curiosities. Maybe this community needs a rule that forbids these murder-stories.

    Once I get home from work this afternoon I will post my docker-compose.yml which has an extra container that automatically deletes the database entry then resets it.

    EDIT: Here is the extra container from my docker-compose.yml

     
        
      icon-fix:
        image: iconfix:latest
        command:
          - /bin/sh
          - -c
          - |
            sleep 10
            # Remove Site Icon - be sure to set your postgres password
            PGPASSWORD=<POSTGRESS PASSWORD HERE> psql -U lemmy -h postgres -d lemmy -c "UPDATE site SET icon = NULL WHERE id = 1;"
            # Refresh Site - replace example.com with your sites domain
        curl -f -sS -H "Host: example.com" http://lemmy-ui:1234 > temp.html
            # Reset Site Icon - Set your postgres password and replace the URL with one that points to your icon
         PGPASSWORD=<POSTGRESS PASSWORD HERE> psql -U lemmy -h postgres -d lemmy -c "UPDATE site SET icon = 'https://example.com/pictrs/image/2cc85182-5739-4c86-b982-94fc913e80d3.webp' WHERE id = 1;"
        depends_on:
          - postgres
    
    
      

    And here is the Dockerfile for building the iconfix image

     
        
    FROM docker.io/postgres:latest
    RUN apt update
    RUN apt install -y curl
    
      
  • This is an issue that has been present for a long time but recently came back worse with the 0.19 update. It is caused by lemmy-ui failing to load the site icon and it typically happens whenever the the docker container is started/restarted while you have a site icon set. The only fix at the moment is to manually delete the database entry which contains a link to the site image.

  • I call you evil because you are making apologies for a Government that kills civilians. You have decided to only listen to the words of their public relations officers when determining intent and have ignored the actions and inactions that reveal their actual intentions.
