Re:Dropping Cloudflare for Bunny.net on Tuesday April 07, 2026 @05:10PM (#47681414)
But 1TB of bandwidth with Bunny costs $10 while you can do tens maybe even hundreds of them for free on Cloudflare. EU,Privacy etc. to side, nothing can beat Cloudflare when it comes performance/features vs. price
Monitoring needs to be: single dashboard << many agents. I have no plan deploying dashboard on every server.
Re:Apple Introduces MacBook Neo on Wednesday March 04, 2026 @10:45AM (#47249193)
And yet same specs iPad + Magic keyboard will cost you twice as much. Sure it's touchscreen but at end of the day If I am "keyboarding" it I am not "touching" it much.
Re:Tarsnap Is Cozy on Wednesday September 10, 2025 @09:51AM (#45197694)
It can be whatever it wants I am not paying $25 to store 100GB. I used to use Tarsnap a decade or so ago but pricing makes no sense at all nowadays.

Looks like much for both Colin and us could be solved moving this away from AWS

Why do hackernews people share links behind paywalls and pop-up's that want me to disable ad blocker ?
Re:Access for Infrastructure: SSH on Thursday October 24, 2024 @05:30AM (#41933780)
Is there anything similar ("central point of SSH access/keys management" ) that is not Cloudflare ? I know about Tailscale and it's SSH but recently it introduced so much latency (even tho they say it's P2P between A and B) that is unusable.

Ideally something self hosted but not hard requirement

Re:Hetzner switches to new billing model on Thursday February 29, 2024 @12:01PM (#39552042)
Please note that Hetzner does this only in couple cases: a) fake account data ; b) previous strikes (unpaid invoices, abuse etc..) with them ; c) in some cases customer is from country they do not do business with. I bet gazzilion OP above is within a or b
Re:Show HN: Ambiphone, no-nonsense ambient music and white noise on Wednesday January 03, 2024 @02:01PM (#38858227)
Yeah, this is even better. Maybe add 'reset' button that will reset all sounds to "not selected".
Re:Show HN: Ambiphone, no-nonsense ambient music and white noise on Wednesday January 03, 2024 @01:50PM (#38858005)
OK to reply to myself, after testing it, this one does work while phone screen is off so this is usable. Thanks

Found similar thing other day [0] but thing is.. If this is not an App it's not usable. People tend to listen this while resting (in bed for example) so makes no sense have this in browser. For example [0] stops playing when screen is off/locked

Re:Outlook/Hotmail is no longer blocking my mail server on Thursday December 28, 2023 @02:19PM (#38797362)
Can I use you as relay to my Postfix for 'regular' emails ?
Re:SMTP Smuggling – Spoofing Emails Worldwide on Friday December 22, 2023 @03:23AM (#38732155)
Anyone have idea for Postfix "workaround fix" on versions prior to 3.5.x ?

For example, Ubuntu 20.04 (LTS) is on 3.4 and 'smtpd_forbid_unauth_pipelining' is not available at all.

Did they "google images" this new name ? It's name for children potty on some languages

Wow WTF is with subscribing me to mailing list and "connecting" with me to LinkedIN just because I used my Gmail to try demo ?
Re:WireHole is a combination of WireGuard, Pi-hole, and Unbound on Saturday October 28, 2023 @02:40PM (#38052294)
I have feeling whole Docker (or application containers) took of when "non Linux people" (read: developers) tried to be sys admins too and failed.

Best thing after sliced bread is apps/software packed in single GO binary. Runs everywhere, you only need to rsync/scp it to million of other places and it "acts" (usually) as normal Linux program/daemon

Re:WireHole is a combination of WireGuard, Pi-hole, and Unbound on Saturday October 28, 2023 @01:48PM (#38051923)
Can you easily debug stuff? Can you tail -f /var/fing/log and see what X or Y does not work (without introducing another container/whatever just for this) ? I know I am minority.. but whole concept This runs X and This runs Y but storage/data is over there having nothing to do with both X or Y is F'd up.

Yeah, you can easily pull and run things but you have no idea how or what it does and when things break whole idea is pull it again and run.

I have nothing against containers.. real system ones (LXC for example)

Re:WireHole is a combination of WireGuard, Pi-hole, and Unbound on Saturday October 28, 2023 @01:09PM (#38051506)
Does everything really need to be Docker these days? Specially "network stuff". I mean, it really makes me want to go and grow potatoes instead doing any "IT"
Re:μMon: Stupid simple monitoring on Monday September 25, 2023 @02:20AM (#37640204)
Monitoring should be: "central" location with GUI/graphs + agents per bunch of servers. Let me chose from dropdown what I want to see.

If I have to deploy this on each machine than it makes no sense. I know SNMP is able to be used like this, but is μMon ?

Re:zrepl: A one-stop, integrated solution for ZFS replication on Wednesday August 23, 2023 @09:38AM (#37235654)
I do not see benefit using this over Sanoid/Syncoid. This smells 'complicated' comparing two
Unfortunately they went full "Vyatta way" or "RedHat Way" by basically giving rolling release for free only. I remember times when Vyatta went behind paywalls Vyos was completely free.

Not sure who would want something rolling on device like router.

Nowdays everyone wanting something good and free go OpnSense way.

Will this soon be available in 22.04 variant ?

Re:Spam blacklisting is out of control on Saturday February 05, 2022 @04:43PM (#30226456)
No one sane is using UCEPROTECT.. I would not even care. If someone is using them as blacklist(s) they have more problems than my mail not reaching them. Spamhaus/Spamcop/truncate.gbudb.net/Barracuda with some "premiums" like Abusix is all anyone should need

Is this Telia (1299) related maybe ?
