    Here's to hoping, but I agree one way or another one stack needs to go :-) BTW: Contact info is in my profile if anyone wants the inside scoop. The project just isn't fully ready f…

    I would agree with you were it not for the fact that I'm personally investing my time into a FLOSS project to make sure the growth does not slow down by making “tomorrow NOT like t…

    I've been really impressed with Mox, an all-in-one monolithinc mail system written in go: https://www.xmox.nl Trivial to setup, guides you through configuring SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MTA…

    A more appropriate solution to the problem of cloned FLOSS apps is establishing a trademark. I mean he says it right before the proprietary apologism, the problem is pointing peopl…

    Sad to say I'm surprised the proprietary vendors are lagging behind here, but there should be no architectural reason you can't deploy a more reasonable firewall.

    Well dnsmasq has --dynamic-host for this use-case. Example: dynamic-host=cafe.dxld.at,::cafe,lan0 Firewalls tend to support DNS, use it :) I know for a fact nftables and pfSense al…

    You can use ip-token(8) on Linux to define a static interface-id, the part of the IP usually auto-generated based on MAC address when using SLAAC instead of making the whole IP sta…

    I found networking/switchdev.txt very approachable. It documents all those different bridge+vlan (aware/unaware) configs you can do: https://docs.kernel.org/networking/switchdev.ht…

    OP's approach looks cool but a bit baroque. I'm also hacking around EDID issues and it turns out there's a nice GUI program to decode and (lightly) patch it: https://packages.debia…

    Hacking the NFC comms is fun and all, but it turns out you can just rip out the orange flatflex PCB under that metal ring with a screwdriver and the brush doesn't care :) Stops it …

    I just use a cron job that calls openssl s_client. The trick is to use faketime to check if the certificate would be valid in the future, like so: check_tls () { # Check two weeks …

    Crazy idea: what if you use a random room ID as an OTP and recognize the user as signed-in as soon as they join that room via an invite or matrix.to link? I'm not sure if this fits…
