Yeah it kind of surprised me too. HDMI and USBC is good for modern servers, but we have plenty of 15-year-old servers in production and even a lot of new servers still use VGA.

I used to use .local but mDNS can get confused, .home has been fine though

I’m curious how you normally deploy since there’s a couple of ways to do it, I’ve mostly dealt with requesting a number of prefixes from the upstream router and delegating to each subnet/VLAN as appropriate, and each time I’ve done it it’s been a breeze

Even if you need static addressing you can just set it manually and DAD will handle it if it ever conflicts with a DHCP address, at least in my experience

You shouldn’t need to remember IP addresses, they invented DNS to solve that problem lol

Even so, the addresses can be even easier to remember because we get a-f as well as digits, my unique local subnet is fd13:dead:beef:1::/60 cause I like burgers haha

Make an uber-pwnagotchi that can hash at it’s own pcaps

I love how straight up this is and how Linux allows it so easily.

My ISP blocks the email protocol ports inbound to me so I whilst I have my own domain and email server, I can’t actually use it.

Can’t wait to get off this body-corporate mandated internet, I’d go with another provider but I don’t have any other choice.

The moment you start charging for access to your hardware you have to start signing SLAs, have documented backups available, have a support team on hand, it’s just a nightmare. Would not recommend.

Yeah great but what about when he dies and nobody else knows how it works? I’ve had to deal with that more than once (creator of Blackboard and creator of IP Office Contact Center, when they died so did the product)
