  • Using Cloudflare CDN to synchronize a clock

    Jump

  • I actually made a similar thing a few years ago, and mostly relied on WebSockets with a HTTP fallback: https://github.com/Steve-Tech/My_Time

    You actually seem to know what you're doing with Workers though, mine was pretty much a half-assed attempt at porting my python code (which again could probably be better).

    Also my desktop is PTP synced to a GNSS disciplined time server, and I've found the My_Time workers demo to be fairly accurate. I also feel Cloudflare should be reasonably accurate given they have database products you're intended to use with workers, but yeah, there's no guarantees.

  • Spent money renewing support license for Blue Iris 6 for the builtin ai image recognition, but it's complete trash

    Jump

  • a low cost subscription for more advanced detection

    It's not just more advanced detection, they will fine tune models for you if you upload images of true/false positives/negatives.

  • IPv6 With ISP That Only Does 6rd

    Jump

  • Most browsers will only use happy eyeballs with a IPv6 UGA, ULAs are just used as a fallback if IPv4 isn't working. You can work around that by using an unreserved UGA as your ULA but that's pretty dodgy.

  • [Solved] What do I need to setup for an email-proxy?

    Jump

  • True, but it's only the sending emails and I don't have to worry about getting my ISP to set PTR records just to pass spam filters. Your domain's MX records still point to your server.

  • [Solved] What do I need to setup for an email-proxy?

    Jump

  • Oracle Cloud has their Email Delivery service, which is basically just a straight SMTP proxy, and it's free. I believe proxies still need to be configured as a sender in SPF and have their own DKIM signing key, but Oracle will still send without them, although wildcard senders will require them.

  • Nicer than a lot of commercial racks I have had to work on

    Jump

  • Usually if they're all managed switches, you can look at the MAC table and map things out that way.

  • What is up with reverse phone number lookups/people search sites?

    Jump

  • For Australians, CallTrace seems pretty good, it's one of the neat uses of LLMs where it will call numbers up and ask what business they are from. Plus I find it hilarious when 2 AIs start talking to each other.

  • I Gave Up on Windows 11. Linux Mint Is Simply Better in 7 Big Ways (PCMAG)

    Jump

  • Also,

    it doesn’t run some major software, such as Adobe Creative Cloud or Microsoft 365 desktop apps.

    I don't use it, but I've heard Adobe CC can work now. Microsoft Office also still works for me with CrossOver, although they've just given up on support for it. Sure, these are much more nitpick things, but I think the author could've at least done some research.

  • Plans to remove ipv4 from the linux kernel.

    Jump

  • Donating gives you Freedom

    Jump

  • I think thanks.dev can do this, it's more designed around donating to dependencies of your own projects, but you can manually specify other projects.

  • Whatcha all working on?

    Jump

  • Currently I'm working on whatports.work in between my studies, basically its an outgoing port tester so that users can test their network's firewall rules. It's similar to portquiz.net, except it has a JS port check, UDP and IPv6 support, and hopefully HTTPS soon.

    I've also thought about getting an ASN and doing some anycast stuff. Especially since it's hosted in Sydney currently, which adds a bunch of latency for anyone not in Australia. Also there's a lot of port scan bots, and the server is doing its best to respond to all of them, with some rate limiting of course, but it'll be good to distribute the load anyway.

  • Collaborate: VPN or Open Access?

    Jump

  • I don't remember which one I specifically used, but theres plenty that show when you DDG "mtls nginx". There's probably others specific to other reverse proxies too.

  • Collaborate: VPN or Open Access?

    Jump

  • I've been preferring mTLS recently. I still use a VPN for management, SMB/NFS, and anything important. But I use mTLS for web services that I'd like to access without having a VPN active all the time. Although, if your web service had a mobile app, usually they don't play nicely with mTLS, so a VPN would be required for me, but Home Assistant and TrilliumDroid do have mTLS support.

  • YSK that uBlock Origin has non-default filters to block cookie consent notices

    Jump

  • FYI, "I don't care about cookies" is owned by Avast, and I can't even find the official source code anymore.

  • How to find reason why linux froze or crashed ?

    Jump

  • Its the same as the Print Screen key.

    Jump

  • Seems weird that you'd sync before terminating and killing processes. I prefer "Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring". Although some distros only enable the S, U, B/O anyway.

  • Ubuntu Will Switch To ntpd-rs As Its Next Rust System Component

    Jump

  • Interesting that PTP is on the roadmap. I find LinuxPTP a massive pain to configure properly since it's split up into phc2sys and ptp4l, hopefully ntpd-rs can simplify things.

  • I'm in.

  • Someone would say something like 'you can unlock a secret page on Facebook, just press F12 and paste this in', and the snippet would upload the victim's session token to the scammer's server. So that they can use the account to promote a crypto scam or whatever.
