  • It also means that ALL traffic incoming on a specific port of that VPS can only go to exactly ONE private wireguard peer. You could avoid both of these issues by having the reverse proxy on the VPS (which is why cloudflare works the way it does), but I prefer my https endpoint to be on my own trusted hardware.

    For TLS-based protocols like HTTPS you can run a reverse proxy on the VPS that only looks at the SNI (server name indication) which does not require the private key to be present on the VPS. That way you can run all your HTTPS endpoints on the same port without issue even if the backend server depends on the host name.

    This StackOverflow thread shows how to set that up for a few different reverse proxies.















  • According to Halioua’s post, breeding large dogs for their size caused elevated levels of IGF-1, a hormone that promotes cell growth. Though this hormone contributes to the animals’ great size, it also hastens their aging. LOY-001 reduces the levels of IGF-1 in large and giant dog breeds, extending healthy life spans.

    Would that also cause them to grow to smaller sizes? (I suppose that may depend on whether this drug is administered before or after the dog is full-grown though)




  • I have a similar setup.

    Getting the DNS to return the right addresses is easy enough: you just set your records for subdomain * instead a specific subdomain, and then any subdomain that’s not explicitly configured will default to using the records for *.

    Assuming you want to use Let’s Encrypt (or another ACME CA) you’ll probably want to make sure you use an ACME client that supports your DNS provider’s API (or switch DNS provider to one that has an API your client supports). That way you can get wildcard TLS certificates (so individual subdomains won’t still leak via Certificate Transparency logs). Configure your ACME client to use the Let’s Encrypt staging server until you see a wildcard certificate on your domains.

    Some other stuff you’ll probably want:

    • A reverse proxy to handle requests for those subdomains. I use Caddy, but basically any reverse proxy will do. The reason I like Caddy is that it has a built-in ACME client as well as a bunch of plugins for DNS providers including my preferred one. It’s a bit tricky to set this up with wildcard certificates (by default it likes to request individual subdomain certificates), but I got it working and it’s been running very smoothly since.
    • To put a login screen before each service I’ve configured Caddy to only let visitors through to the real pages (or the error page, for unconfigured domains) if Authelia agrees.


  • The Tasks.org android app (and Astrid, its predecessor) have been my external brain for over a decade now. Reminders which automatically repeat on a configured interval (if necessary) are just extremely useful.

    I don’t use it for actual appointments with other people (dentist, game night with friends, etc.), those go in a calendar app1. But one-time reminders and everything that’s even remotely on a timed interval (household chores, paying bills, scheduling car maintenance2, “check if a new book is out in that series I like”), those live in my tasks list.

    I then use the Todo Agenda widget to show both calendar appointments and tasks in a single overview.

    1: Google Calendar in my case, which is not open source. But something like NextCloud would probably work too.

    2: The task is to make an appointment with my car guy. The appointment itself then gets put in my calendar app.
