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.

Makes sense. It sure as shit didn’t have any real intelligence.

Olympic athletes are on strict diets. They no longer have such dietary requirements once they’ve won.

Lucky living?

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

Personally, I think this is a meaningless question. For me it’s all about utility. I’ve found science to provide utility to me in helping understand and, more importantly, predict the world. I’ve not found the same in religion. I choose paths that provide utility.

I’ve not known any. But it also seems like those things have a correlative and not causative relationship.

There’s certainly a history of big tobacco getting actors to smoke on screen, so that’s certainly part of it. But another reason an actor might want to smoke is it gives them a way to utilize body language in a way that’s plausible within the scene. Cigarettes, cigars, pipes, pens, eye glasses… these sorts of props are often almost invisible (as the audience just sort of takes them for granted), but can be used by an actor with intent to convey some unsaid context.

I think we can all agree to lose the keys to that cage, right?

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.

The solution to pollution is dilution. Every sane user and instance weakens the grasp of the insane.
