Howdy! 👋

I’m level 27 web dev from đŸ‡«đŸ‡ź Finland. Full stack developer by trade but more into server side and sysadmin stuff.

A furry or something. Why be yourself when you can be fluffy raccoon on the internet?

I’m also on Mastodon: @jakeRaccoon@mastodon.social

Sure. I’m not recommending anything, just stating what has worked for me. For simple use cases, I think most of the DDNS services are pretty much the same anyway and it’s easy to switch to an another one if one stops working for some reason.

I’ve been using No-IP free plan for years without issues. Inputted the credentials to my routers DDNS client and then basically forgot about it. Free users need to confirm their account once a month via email but that’s just one click.

If your domain registrar happens to have an API to update DNS entries, you could implement DDNS yourself by writing a simple automated script to check the external IP (e.g. via ipify.org) and if it’s changed from the last check then call the API to update the DNS entries.

MistĂ€ uudempien ydinvoimaloiden polttoaine tulee ja mitĂ€ eroa niillĂ€ on? Mun tietĂ€mys ydinvoimaloista on tasoa “sisÀÀn menee uraania ja ulos tulee sĂ€hkĂ¶Ă€â€, joten siksi kyselen tyhmiĂ€

Varsinkin kun pikkukunnissa monessa asiassa edetÀÀn otteella “poikien kanssa tĂ€ssĂ€ vĂ€hĂ€n puuhaillaan”, eikĂ€ ison maailman hömpötykset paina.

Todettakoon kuitenkin, ettÀ se PerÀhikiÀn kunnan vesihuolto ei luultavasti ole sabotöörien ykköskohde, kun mahdolliset vaikutukset olisi aivan mitÀttömÀt. Mutta tÀmÀ ei tietenkÀÀn ole syy jÀttÀÀ varautumatta

Työpaikan kahvipöydÀssÀ kuulin, ettÀ niksi on tehdÀ numeronsiirto kilpailijalle ja odottaa, ettÀ nykyiseltÀ operaattorilta tulee ns. winback-tarjous, yleensÀ tekstiviestillÀ. Mutta ekaan tarjoukseen ei kannata vielÀ tarttua, vaan odottaa ettÀ tulee vielÀ parempi tarjous tai soittavat perÀÀn. Ja tÀmÀ sitten uudestaan joka kerta kun tarjoushintainen kausi on pÀÀttymÀssÀ.

ItsellÀ ei kyllÀ todellakaan ole mielenkiintoa moiseen rumpaan.

My main issue with CVEs nowadays is that it seems one gets generated even when 99% of the use cases for the software in question are not vulnerable as the vulnerability requires a very specific configuration/circumstances/etc. to be exploitable. In large projects with lots of dependencies this adds a lot of noice and there’s a risk that actual important CVEs go unnoticed.

I was going to give the example of the Carnival cruise ship that sank in the 2010s (I think) largely due to the captain’s incompetence[
]

That’s Costa Concordia. It received extra media attention and is mostly known due to the awful behavior of the captain who first directly caused the accident and then fled the ship before most of his passengers.

Well, just by looking at responses in this thread, the controversy most definitely still exists. Some seem to like it and others hate it fiercely.

Cool, thanks for the explanation.

a single application that gets bundled with all necessary dependencies including versioning

Does that mean that if I were to install Application A and Application B that both have dependency to package C version 1.2.3 I then would have package C (and all of its possible sub dependencies) twice on my disk? I don’t know how much external dependencies applications on Linux usually have but doesn’t that have the potential to waste huge amounts of disk space?
