Exactly.
I use it a lot on my systems for very simple scripts because I am significantly more experienced in python compared to bash.
I remember getting given a 10k line python script which “was the documentation” for an API i had to interact with using powershell. I hated life so much because of that stupid project.
It’s the best scripting language I know of, but man I hate dynamically types languages. I am so used to rust and C/C++ that reading any large script or program will drive me insane
And the whitespace instead of {} tokens…
Sorry, but you weren’t the type I thought you were all the time
I’ve run into the same problem with an API server I wrote in rust. I noticed this bug 5 minutes before a demo and panicked, but fixed it with a 1 second sleep. Eventually, I implemented a more permanent fix by changing the simplistic io calls to ones better designed for streams
This is why I did a “walkthrough test” when I had to write documentation on this sort of thing. I’m a terrible technical writer, so this shit is necessary for me.
I grabbed my friend who knows enough about computers to attempt this, but not enough about infrastructure to automatically know what I meant when I was too vague.
Took two revisions, but the final document was way easier to follow at the end
I’ve heard wazuh can do authenticated vuln scanning, but since I’ve scaled down my homelab and hardened it to a point that vuln scanning is not currently needed I’ve had no need to do so. I have a friend deploying wazuh at his job so I’m gonna have to reach out to him some time to learn how he is doing it once I start growing my lab again.
I use nuclei for networked vuln scanning, which is all I really need right now. Works well with community rules, but it is a cli application. I really like how I don’t need to deploy it on a dedicated device, I just run it using all rules on the subnets that I want to scan from my laptop, which I have plugged into a vuln-scanning network with open fw rules, and check back in half an hour. Once I get a few more raspberry pis, I’ll have one on such a network that I can just run a scan from.
I use it to pull up a recipe that I’m cooking, If I need to double check a detail. Usually, I have everything on a physical list for practicality.
The issue is large warehouses, like Walmart or Costco or whatever often have bad cell reception, so you might need wifi to reach the internet.

I run two APs, and a Unifi server running on a thin client linux server.
I have the U7, and the U6 extender that goes in a wall outlet
I have a few of their small poe powered ethernet switches, they’re great since I have a poe switch as a backbone I can put it near a group of devices in a room, like consoles, raspberry PIs, etc, and just not have to worry about much setup or powering yet another tiny device.
Highly recommend unifi devices
I do that to my dead drives, but I’ve only had one fail that wasn’t an SSD. Moreso because the washers that separate the platters have a very satisfying ring to them that makes me keep them as a fidget toy.
I use the magnets to hold screws, it works great for that.
Unfortunately, SSDs have less interesting parts, so I just take them apart to destroy the chips after failure
Tailscale, with nginx for https.
Very easy, very simple, just works, and i can share my jellyfin server with my friends
