Just give it a bullshit email address if you don’t want a receipt.

The term you would search for here is “split-horizon DNS”. Assuming you’re using a real domain name with hosts, you want a DNS server inside that resolves the LAN address, and the outside DNS server for everyone else resolves your WAN address (which presumably you reverse-proxy to inside host).

Even better is to not expose the service at all from the outside, use a VPN like Tailscale, and then use their MagicDNS service on the tailscale network to keep everything behind the firewall.

Every service you expose to the outside is more attack surface.

I had a car dealership I was to add new servers into a new rack and recable it. I walked into a room with about half a dozen servers balanced on a pile of cat5, BNC and serial cables about 4’ high. I spent 3 weeks untangling cables, removing dead cable, decommissioning serial and token ring networks and re-terminating or re-running ethernet that didn’t test well.

Pretty much everything was done by scream test because nothing was marked. I found an ancient server that was still used for manuals occasionally that was drywalled into a old closet in the shop when I traced down a line I disconnected and one of the mechanics asked where his manuals had gotten to. That server was shut down every night when they turned off the shop lights and booted back up every morning for who knows how many years when someone came in to work and turned on the lights.

I eventually got to the point I could set up my rack and SANs/servers, patch everything over from the network rack I mounted on the wall, and get guys going on the workstations.

We had a series of meetings after that with the sales team about getting a technical appraisal before we sold our equipment into dealerships. And every dealership I worked in after that was pretty similiar.

Honestly, it was an amazingly satisfying feeling at the end to look in that room after I was done. I get a little shiver 20 years later thinking about it now.

Oh, don’t forget that now the oil that actually gets through is being traded in yuan and RMB instead of USD, so now the petrodollar is starting to slip away, which is the only reason the dollar can keep it’s strength because it leverages every other countries energy budget to contribute to US GDP.

This was true weapons-grade stupidity for that stable genius.

Poke a hole in it and grease it up. Put it at the end of your driveway with a sign that says “Free Fuckable Mattress, first come, first serve!”

But posting shit like this does make you a twat.

OK, I was having this discussion with the wife. What’s a good used EV in North America, 5-10 years old. Preferably without a bunch of electronic shit and definitely not a Tesla?

100,000 actually.

Do your CCIE and come back to me.

And for what it’s worth, I did my BSc.Eng in Electrical too.

She’s a keeper.

Holy ragebait.

Scepter makes non-smart TVs . They aren’t very high res.

That looks pretty pro.

90s contraceptive.

Damn rights.

Openbooks downloading to Calibre’s auto ingestion folder, all running as a docker compose. OPDS service feeds FBreader on an Android tablet.

Memory bus speed of the Spark is poor and that’s a huge detriment.

None of my fucking business.

Honestly, the NC AIO is the same. I don’t think you even need to change any of the environment options in the compose.

But glad you found something that works for you.
