cloudflare happened first and I haven't been bothered to change it yet

I switched to it because the ISP blocked ports 80/443. It was good and things actually got a bit faster with them handling SSL certs.

but one thing to note is that the free tier has a 100MB file limit. I got around some of that by using the tail scale vpn with a custom domain entry to point to the local network.

I did these changes (wire guard to tail scale, dns to tunnels, etc) at different times, which is why things aren't very consistent.

probably the only LLM I've liked for searches is Kagi's, because it tries to not answer your question. it figures out search terms for it, then does the search, summarizes or approximates an answer, them gives citation links so you can check it

I try to have 3 places in mind for a change of scenery, and if there's something going on at at least one spot, that can take the pressure off of talking. i try to sit next to the person, like at a bar top, instead of across because that just feels like a job interview or something.

aside from that, engaging conversation. Probe for interest and if they reciprocate, then you can go a bit further until they don't or you're making out.

funny thing though, I started planning some of my outings with friends like I was doing a date. Instead of just going to the bar and "yyyyup"-ing for a couple hours, I try to find a shoe or something going on and then change locations to something else interesting. By the end my buds are commenting about how much fun they had.

so plan the date around interesting things or environments, or just something going on or something to look at. Then just have fun and relax.

Also, I read something from one of the old dating sites where they said that a sushi date is 27% more likely to get a second date. All of my sushi dates have gotten second dates.

filled! I'm looking forward to the results!

if this pic were me, that'd be the biggest pizza I'd have hauled on that bike

the s&p is an index weighted to match the top 500 companies, so the bigger companies get more money put in to their stocks. if most companies aren't doing great and a few tech ones are "holding up the market", then most of the money in your s&p indeed will be with them

i grew up in church, this is part of the curriculum

This hasn't been implemented yet, right?

I really loved this read. thank you for sharing!

this was a fun read! I haven't done much web UI in years, so it was nice to learn about some of the new, nice things that are available. i don't think I'd remember some of the more advanced stuff though.

 

Usually I post updates like these on my gotosocial account, but my computer/server is at my parents house and their modem has been having a moment for the past day and a half and they're not the best sys-admins. I have more posts and updates that would normally be found on mastodon, but again - parents modem haha.

Anyway, for background I've been renting a couple of VPS servers out of the Netherlands and I'm running Talos OS and kubernetes. I'm in the works of standing up some digital-nomad / backpacker oriented instances called "keyboardvagabond.com" and eventually I'll get a landing page, etc. There's still more work to do before going live even though the services are running.

The lates bit of work came after a meetup at my job where no one came for official discussion, so we talked about self-hosting. I was strongly encouraged to get off of using external-dns and dns routing to use Cloudflare's tunnels instead. I had avoided them because I felt a bit intimidated. I got the first test pod running in like 15 minutes and then began migrating all of the application endpoints. I still need to seal off the k8s and talos ports, for which I might use warp.

The adventure part came to me realizing that I wasn't pulling in images on the piefed instance, so I figured that something was wrong. I checked k9s and there was about 50 cron jobs the send queue all in ImgePullBackoff. When I migrated harbor registry, I just went to the landing page, but didn't sign in. It took a bit of figuring things out, but I had to switch the backend in nginx to use https, port 443, and tls no verify, then change cloudflare to use HTTPS with a different host name than a host name for a specific pod (the new one is harbor-registry.harbor-registry.svc.cluster.local:443).

Anyway, it's all working now and the jobs slowly cleaned up, but it's fun seeing that the latest jobs can't be made due to "not enough memory" (crying with sunglasses emoji here). The piefed-worker pod is screaming along at its maximum of 1cpu core and 60% maximum memory, so it's all looking good.

Edit

Event MORE fun in self hosting. The ISP blocked my ports! Thankfully I was talking with my manager about cloudflare tunneling. I just moved my domain names over to cloudflared and everything is back up again. Took about an hour or so to migrate everything.
