- Comment on Update all your stuff, NOW - again. 6 days ago:
SSH enabled and the SSH port of the container accessible.
- Comment on Time to start over...Thoughts on Umbrel OS? 1 week ago:
It’s always Debian.
And I’m OK with that.
- Comment on It's self hosting Sunday! What's up? 1 week ago:
Upgrading one of my powerhouse Dell R410 proxmox nodes to 128GB of smoking hot PC10500 DDR3 ECC Ram from 64.
Now it’s cutting edge.
- Comment on [AIP] Stalwart v1.0: The Fastest Mail Server on the Planet 2 weeks ago:
What I appreciate about this is the acknowledgement of something called “nuance” that AI can now write viable code and be a tool that improves software and the speed with which it is written. Just because there’s an AGENTS.md doesn’t make code slop. And the more we refine this method, the cheaper it gets in terms of tokens/energy.
I’m not happy about what it means for juniors coming into the field, but we might have to change what we teach in order to build good software, as has been done dozens of times before.
We’ll still have the kneejerk reactionaries that are locking in the KV pair of
AI=Slopbut i guess that’s a constant of the human condition. Conservatives never change their minds. - Comment on For people using OpnSense who want some automatic snapshots. 2 weeks ago:

Set the boot order in PVE. You can also group HA targets to shift as a group. I have a physical nic on WAN and LAN, and the LAN nic is VLANned for DMZ, guest, IOT, etc. As long as you keep them consistent from node to node, I’ve never had an issue.

It’s been amazing. The thing I like the most is being able to live-motion it to another node to upgrade the host then migrate back. Doesn’t drop a ping.
I’m using some ancient Dell rackmount servers for nodes, and a couple times the prime server dropped off entirely because of power issues, and I didn’t notice for a couple weeks that it had jumped hosts. I’ve also had to restore it from backup because of a borked upgrade, and it took maybe 5 minutes.
I thought that it would be a bad idea but I tried it with the original baremetal router that I lift and shifted to a VM then put the source on standby, and 5 years later, I would not go back.

I run my OPNsense as a proxmox VM, so I get high availability, replication, live backup and restore via PBS and update-time snapshots.
I couldn’t recommend this method more, it’s saved my ass repeatedly.
- Comment on For users with public facing services: How does the current explosion of AI-discovered vulnerabilities affect your threat model and willingness to be public facing? 2 weeks ago:
I have my ops agent constantly checking SBOMs against current CVEs and if something triggers, I get a report with severity and repair options researched. I can then decide how I want it to proceed. I’m much less concerned about internal only services. SBOMs are refreshed after updates for future checks.
- Comment on PHP selfhosting list 3 weeks ago:
One I know about that’s not on your list and is very likely to be an exposed service is Mailcow. Looks like the PHP filter isn’t triggering for it, but it’s definitely PHP based.
- Comment on PSA: PHP warns it plans to release 2 emergency patches imminently (today 14:00 UTC) 3 weeks ago:
Nextcloud.
- Comment on [AIP] WebZFS - Modern Web Interface for ZFS Administration 3 weeks ago:
This is well done. Integrates Sanoid/Syncoid, gives a pile of information about what’s happening on the filesystem, some of which I had to research to figure out what it’s telling me.
Haven’t seen anything to set up alarms but maybe I haven’t delved far enough into it yet.
- Comment on Is anyone self-hosting their own AI? 3 weeks ago:
A Tesla V100 is fairly affordable but older and won’t run newer quants like FP8 or attention kernel routines. But it will run a pile of models, even most new models are compatible or usable.
- Comment on 'My own piece of the Internet: Part 1', a blog post discussing the process of getting an ARIN ASN and a /24 IPv4 block for their home setup 3 weeks ago:
I did this back in the 00s, got the /24 immediately. Wish I’d kept it going today.
- Comment on Forgejo v17.0 3 weeks ago:
Might pay to wait a minor or two before repinning your compose file, Forgejo has had issues on the first release of a major.
- Comment on Which domain registry or specific TLD do you prefer, and why? 4 weeks ago:
I have an old .com domain, and a new .farm domain, amongst a bunch of other I registered because they seemed interesting for projects I work on.
Both via Porkbun these days, with DNS via Cloudflare. I always split DNS from the domain registrar so if one goes dark, I can recover via the other.

This was literally just set up in response to this post. Check out the posts earlier from @Xe about 16 hours before yours.
- Comment on What do you use for alerting? 4 weeks ago:
MQTT and a vibecoded flutter app that subscribes to topics and will publish acks so it mutes alerts on other devices in my networks. Nothing I could find on the appstore would stay active well enough to be trusted. This one is pretty bulletproof.
- Comment on Self-Host Weekly (2 October 2026) 5 weeks ago:
YTZero, you mean? It looks like the maintainer is stepping away because of the potential legal jeopardy of dealing with Youtube, so it’s going unmaintained. Which is a damn shame, I’ve used it for a couple months now and love it. I might have to maintain my own fork.
