In-reply-to » I disabled the compression of logs on my edge, which I'm hoping will fix the "instability" I see every now and again where my edge network just "falls off the face of the earth". Some folks don't really appreciate / understand this, but Disk I/O can kill your application(s) no matter what. I/O Wait is a real thing.

@bender@twtxt.net Okay 👌

In-reply-to » Warum erfahre ich erst im Jahr 2025 von Server-sent events (SSE) 🤔? Das Zeug scheint für die webbasierte Server-Client-Kommunikation in JavaScript ideal zu sein und ist sehr einfach umzusetzen.

@arne@uplegger.eu Yeah SSE + HTMX is basically all you need really. The whole complicated/complex JavaScript ecosystem is overkill.

In-reply-to » Intranets have been around since Jesus times (well, not quite 😂, but you get the idea). They are fun to play with, but that's about it. I mean, the "fun" of the Internet comes from its variety.

@bender@twtxt.net Is dealing with spam fun though? DDoS attacks? DoS attacks? Scans for all kinds of stupid shit™? Malware? Advertising? Tracking? Spying? ..

In-reply-to » 🤔 💭 🧐 What if, What if we built our own self-hosted / small-web / community-built/run Internet on top of the Internet using Wireguard as the underlying tech? What if we ran our own Root DNS servers? What if we set a zero tolerance policy on bots, spammers and other kind of abuse that should never have existed in the first place. Hmmmm

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I wouldn’t consider this a “dark web”, no. It’d just be a new web on top of an already existing “physical” infrastructure, where the web that grew out of that is total garbage.

I keep getting this email occadionally:

Your iCloud storage is almost full

Now for various reasons, I don’t want my children to be using iCloud to store data, files, photos or any of the sort. They’re free to use iMessages, and other Apple services like the App Store, etc, but not storage.

So I’ve set about blocking iCloud Storage API(s) via AdGuard Home tonight as well as ensuring that my local network (client users) cannot bypass DNS policies and get out other sneaky ways, because some applications will just use other DNS servers, or DOH or DOT.

In-reply-to » Today, I experimented with Linux Capabilities as a continuation to my Unix Domain Sockets research from a few months ago: https://lyse.isobeef.org/caller-information-via-unix-domain-sockets/#capabilities

@lyse@lyse.isobeef.org Cool! 😎 You might be interested in my own learnings and toying around with building my own container engine / tooling (whatever you wanna call it) box. I had to learn a bunch of this stuff too 😅 Control Groups, Namespaces, Process Isolation, etc.

In-reply-to » I got the magpie again this morning: https://lyse.isobeef.org/elster-2025-10-05/ 02 is at takeoff.

@bender@twtxt.net See the problem is you don’t live in the “busy” enough 😂 There are roaches everywhere here! 🤣 LOL snakes too! Plovers, Magpies, Crows, Spiders, even Deer for fucks sake 😂

@bender@twtxt.net We have quite a few that are basically part of our friendly neighborhood. They knew we won’t chase them aware, scare them, etc. In fact some of us find little cockroaches to feed them, tose ‘em up in the air and watch them sweep in and grab the little suckers 🤣
