That won’t work for me since I have multiple people using this Nextcloud instance, and I also use it to publicly share files. I also have a big network share (currently 5 TB of data) that I would like to better integrate somehow (right now it’s available from Nextcloud read-only in essentially “anonymous mode” with no access to private user files).

I want something with a permission model that works the same when accessed over a network share (SMB, ideally NFS) and access over a web interface. Ideally it would have a Mac File Provider sync client and whatever the Windows equivalent is called as well.

Nextcloud is fine but it’s not that.

Oh my god, this seems really good and closer to what I want than anything yet. Been looking for something to replace Nextcloud and found nothing good so I might take a look at this.

Thanks! I’ll take a closer look at both then and see which I like better.

I am running a Matrix homeserver right now and yeah it’s definitely a mess.

Since you’ve used both, how do ejabberd and prosody compare to another? I was going to go with the former.

I haven’t tried TrueNAS, but I use NixOS for my NAS and my other servers. It’s perfect for servers imo since it’s essentially a Linux system builder that you can customize to add whatever you want to your system.

The downside is that you’ll have to learn a weird functional programming language, especially when you get into writing service modules yourself (for services that don’t have an upstream module). And it’ll take some time to get familiar with it and learn how to effectively write your configuration.

Those people are conspiracy nuts. Don’t listen to them.

Eh, as I said I haven’t been keeping up with it and I’m starting to forget stuff. I should get back into it. I did pretty good though when I was actively learning. I’d say even one of the best in the class that were learning it from scratch.

I went to Russian classes in uni for a bit over one year, and at home I did the exercises in the workbooks we had for the course + studying vocabulary with Anki. Basically the classic way to learn a language in school.

I started learning Russian 2 and a half years ago now maybe, mostly in uni classes. Haven’t done anything in a while though. I generally think slavic languages are cool and would like to learn another actually.

Я начинала учить русский может быть 2 с половиной года назад, в основном в универе, но ничего не делала за учение в последнее время. В общем я думаю, что славянские языки круто и действительно хочу бы учить другую.

Topical minoxidil and finasteride are the main treatments for hair loss and are proven to work.

Estrogen also very likely works well with hair loss this recent, it does for me. And it’s much lower maintenance depending on how you take it. Depends on what you think of the other effects :^)

Supplements and everything else that’s not specifically medication for it* is mostly bullshit unless you have nutrition deficiency (in case of supplements). You can get yourself tested for it by a doctor but it’s unlikely to be the case especially if your father also has hair loss.

* there’s some others like dutasteride but in the end they are all DHT blockers like finasteride as far as I know (DHT is what kills hair follicles)

Okay, to avoid confusion maybe I should use the same term you used, which is sexual preference, and not sexual orientation. This is what I’m talking about (from your OP):

The second part is sexual prefernces. I do not know much about sex or sexual preferences. I am a young adult, and have not had to know about this for any person that I have met yet. I have never had the interest to know about this for someone, neither have I retained this information. I understand that if you are looking out for partner/s, then you would have to share this, so we would have to use some words for it. But why do we have to keep this as a part of gender. As in, why would I want to share this information with my governments (who do census), or for my visa applications. Should this not just be something personal?

The only one who talks about this in the linked comment chain is the other person, and only tangentially.

So, again I suppose, in which way do you think this is part of gender?

Yeah. I think sex as a general classifier is not very useful, both in a colloquial and also medical context. I know that firsthand due to taking HRT, which already causes very medically relevant changes but of course not across the board for all sexual characteristics. But I wanted to keep it relatively short :)

Hm, where? I only saw you talk about gender vs sex, for which there is no difference in my native language either. And they certainly are closely related to the point where the majority of people identify as the gender corresponding to their sex.

However sexual orientation (such as “straight” or “gay” or “aroace” for example) is an entirely different thing as it describes your attraction to other people.

Sexual orientation is not part of gender! In which way do you think it is?

Hm, okay, that does sound like the real client IP will get lost and every connection will appear to come from the proxy then. It would be good if that were passed somehow. My current setup adds the X-Forwarded-For header for example.

Oh interesting, I’ll have to look into that. Is this with that “proxy protocol” I’ve seen mentioned? If not, does this preserve it pass through the client socket address?

Tbf, technically data is still decrypted at the reverse proxy and then re-encrypted. So if someone manages to reconfigure the proxy or read its memory somehow they could read traffic in plain text.

However then since they have to control the VPS, they could also get a new cert for that domain (at least the way I’ve configured it) even if it was passed as is to the real host via a tunnel and read the plaintext data that way, so I don’t think a tunnel protects against anything.

If someone manages to get root (!) access on this VPS it’s over either way.

Yes, you can just use a reverse proxy for IPv4 only and point it to the IPv6 upstream. That is what I do, with a separate DNS record which then combines the two. See the DNS records for id.knifepoint.net (CNAME), http.vineta.knifepoint.net (AAAA, A) and vineta.knifepoint.net (AAAA).

The reverse proxy config and certificate management is set up with NixOS, if it helps: https://git.dblsaiko.net/systems/tree/nixos/defaults/v4proxy.nix https://git.dblsaiko.net/systems/tree/nixos/modules/sys2x/v4proxy.nix

The experimental status is more about that not everything is implemented yet (not that everything can be implemented, for example due to HTML not being oriented around having multiple pages in a document), so you have to write a bit of raw HTML sometimes. This is an example of how raw HTML looks, it’s the shell for my webpage.
