Ah yes that makes sense. I was taken aback by my latest install of freepbx. I feel it wasn’t as aggressive during the Digium days but it definitely left a bad taste in my mouth.

I heard good things about free switch, although it seems like a paradigm change. I’ll have to check it out.

Interesting - why avoid asterisk?

I looked into fusion to play with but I’ve been using asterisk casually since like the 00s with no issues.

You may have facts but there are like 10 people here saying they won’t buy a Tesla so…

I wound up with gollum. Git based with a wiki format. Works well enough for my limited use.

Excellent! Nice work.

I don’t know what dns rebind is but once DNS A records are pointed to the right place then it’s just a matter of setting up the rest of your stuff.

Is that expected? Otherwise check to make sure DNS settings for the domain are correct (eg ns records dig NS example.com IIRC).

First off - you don’t explicitly say so I just want to double check - you’re not using example.com as the actually domain correct?

If not the next thing to do would be to check out what DNS is doing. You can use the dig command to see what IP address is being returned for the domains you’re trying to hit.

dig +trace may be useful as well.

When you copy /home make sure you get the “hidden” files. They start with a “.” and some programs ignore them by default. That’s also where most configuration files are.

Check out rsync -avz

I like monit. It’s simple to setup and pretty flexible.

I got a little curious too and just did a small amount of digging. The DHS latest report (Q2 FY 2023) can be found here:

https://www.dhs.gov/immigration-statistics/special-reports/legal-immigration

“About 11,700 refugees were admitted to the United States in FY 2023 Q2 (Table 2), a 113 percent increase from FY 2022 Q2, when only about 5,500 refugees were admitted.”

So about 4000 a month, 1000 per week and 150 per day.

That includes countries other than South America:

“76 percent of refugees arrived from the top five countries of nationality: Democratic Republic of Congo, Burma, Syria, Afghanistan, and Colombia“

I haven’t found a great source on illegal immigration yet.

Edit: I got also got curious about the scale of this number so I looked up births per day (from some random sites) in the US and it seems like that’s about 10,000. Number of deaths per day seems to be around 8,000. So a net of about 2,000 people are added to the US per day “naturally”.

Last edit: Found some info by the cbp: https://www.cbp.gov/newsroom/stats/nationwide-encounters

Looks like an increase but nothing crazy. I don’t know what an “encounter” is either.

A little bit of a different tack but check out getting into ham radio. There are a lot of kits out there that are reasonably easy to assemble and provide some good documentation on what you’re assembling.

And when you’re done you can talk to people all over the world with what you made!

No man. McDonald’s used to be cheap, fast and decent. The original burger in 1955 was 15 cents, or about $1.75 today. Don’t forget how far things have fallen lol

I did 1300 queries which I think would put it at .007 cents per query. Sounds reasonable to me.

I always fear it comes across that way when I recommend it to people here. I’m just a very happy user and want to see them succeed.

They now have unlimited searches for $10/mo. That’s what got me to try it out.

You are correct though. I really do not like having all of my search history tied to my credit card (and then me). What helps me justify that is that instead of me being the product like google, by paying I’ve become the customer. Hopefully that incentivizes keeping them on the up and up.

I did come across searnxg in this thread. It looks like that can be self hosted so I’m gonna give that a try as well.

Come on over to Kagi! You do have to pay but I use a search engine dozens of times per day so I’m not too bothered by it.

There’s nothing really bad with PiHole but I moved from it to AdGuard, both on proxmox. The UI brought me in, makes management a bit easier. It also supports DoH right out of the box.

Try em both. See what you think.

I don’t know for hosting but if you want to get something running quickly Hugo has theme support:

Otherwise you could whip up a few html pages and use tailwindcss to help make things look a little nicer.

Or just do everything manually :)

It’s a shot of espresso which is only about 2oz (60ml). A normal serving would be one or two shots.

I’m guessing people are ordering a latte or cappuccino or something similar which is milk and coffee. The extra shot will make the drink have a stronger coffee taste.

Edit: here’s more than you ever asked to know about espresso drinks lol:

I just spent a week evaluating all the popular choices to document an overlay network I’m standing up. All I want is a simple markdown interface to write notes in. My goal was something with a very simple UI, markdown, and very light weight.

MediaWiki, Bookstack, and WikiJS (or JSWiki) were good but they were too much for what I needed. I ended up with stumbling on gollum and really like it. It’s very very simple, fast, and clean. I wrote a one line cronjob and now I’m backed up to gitlab.
