  • So I am in a vicious cycle. I start doing something, notice there is a better way, change my setup and restart. So from just Ubuntu server, I developed to proxmox. From documenting everything manuall in joplin, i am now using ansible. I started with wireguard, then tailscale with selfhosted headscale. I try to get my setup right on the first try, which i notice is stupid as I am writing. It just hinders me to make progress. I think I should rather try to get it up and running as fast as possible (and securely of cause) to make progress and fail fast maybe? And I like all the changes I made, I think they were the right choice, but its a bit tiering. And I like ansible, I just have the urge to automate absolutely everything, so I can redeploy everything right after I installed proxmox. Which is not necessary at all at this stage, idk :D Maybe someone has some tips how to overcome perfectionism?


  • That resolves my confusion. I was wandering what is going on, if its a meme or what. But that’s actually pretty funny. Its a way to gatekeep kernel dev for people who are willing to put in effort, which shows it’s important to them making commits more serious I guess? Like it hinders people to do the AI spam shit that curl reported, on the other hand it also hinders getting into Linux dev a bit by making it more complicated than just a little pull request


  • Caddy is nice and super simple. Only issue I had was: it can’t control domains if its behind a VPN. I use hetzner and they have an API, but the feature is not native to caddy so I would have had to rebuild caddy as an docker image. Rather annoying tbh, because everything else is great about it







  • My friends had about the same amount oft issues with their thinkpad as me with the fw.

    I agree, that there are many issues, but you don’t notice them in daily use.

    The support is very good with most people, I seem to have bad luck, but once I got someone helpful, it got solved super quick.

    I still recommend fw. I wish they would redo the fw13 and improve upon all the little issues everyone had, but mine still goes strong and I hope it will for many years to come
