The owner brought the TV to the ER, where we are now.

Use Tailscale, for the most part it’s pretty transparent. As long as all the magic DNS stuff is setup correctly, I can access all my internal services by name and it just works.

Seems presumptuous they use an 8 bit byte in middle earth. I’d expect more like 20 bits, but divided between men, elves, and dwarfs. Well, except one of those bits is the one true bit, having spooky control over the other bits. Clearly middle earth computation is quantum.

I use portainer behind tail scale. Easy management anywhere and no publicly available access.

Yes. I used to do that when I had no other option. In my early days I managed to get a worm spread by a susceptible sshd in… red hat 5ish… don’t remember exactly. But the point being: keeping things secure is hard work. And even then it might not be possible.

These days I use tailscale and essentially never leave my internal network regardless of being directly connected to it or not.

Set it up with your own DNS server and tailscale’s ability to forward specific domains to your DNS server and it all just works.

I ran my own server for many years. There was a learning curve to all the fiddly bits (Postfix Configuration, SPF, DKIM, DMARC, SpamAssassin) required to get the world to see your server as worthy. There’s also the problem of finding a “clean” IP that’s not been blacklisted by some spam database. And even then, once in a while you end up in a database for who knows what reason. These things often made the email less useful as sometimes I’d end up in people’s spam folder.

It was a good experience as I learned a lot. But it was also a constant headache. One I felt I didn’t want to keep “learning” that particular thing I just moved to ProtonMail and haven’t looked back.

No. What’s the Web 2.0 version of Embrace, Extend, Extinguish. Because that. Oh, and because that company is toxic waste. No, worse that that. At least toxic waste comes with the promise that enough work would leave it inert.
