Solutions for remote access?


I've been setting up a music server on my home server recently, looking to move away from private hosting options like iBroadcast, but I've hit a bit of a snag when it comes to actually accessing my server when away from home.

The two most common recommendations I've seen are Cloudflare and OpenVPN. My router supports OVPN access, so I gave that a try, but couldn't ever actually make it work. I don't know for sure, but I think it's probably something with my ISP that I can't really easily work around. As far as Cloudflare goes, setting up a tunnel requires you to have a domain set up with them even if you're just using Warp, and since I don't have one, that's not an option.

What other good options are there for remote access? I'm running Open Media Vault as my server. Thanks.

Edit: Based on responses, it looks like Tailscale is the way to go since it's all private to me. Thanks everyone!

For new people, for ongoing domain registrations people should also consider the renewal costs. There are some registrars with somewhat predatory pricing schemes that end up being very expensive long term (e.g. the trendy .io TLD).

Dot com and dot net are some of the most stable ones, even though they might not appear as such at first glance. Almost anything less costly on initial costs will cost you in some other way (might not offer whois privacy (.us iirc) or be limited to residents or people with legit business on that country (.ca) or have a mixed reputation with being labeled spam (.xyz - although I believe this last one has been kind of proactive in clearing that up).

Sorry to highjack the comment, but I wish someone had warned me to look, not all TLDs are administered the same.

That is a consideration. I've never really had any issues with anything I've purchased from NamesCheap, and I've used them for years. True, my less than $5 original cost will be $11 to renew but that seems to be the standard introductory pricing scheme most everyone uses. The domain name came with whois privacy included. I hear about PorkBun a lot, but I've never used them. I'm sure there are horror stories for NamesCheap and that seems to vary from person to person. However, it is good to be well informed before making your selection.


[Canada's] Liberals Fear Closing Arms Export Loophole Would Anger U.S.


cross-posted from: lemmy.ca/post/56424420

A recent report, co-authored by the Palestinian Youth Movement, Canadians for Justice and Peace in the Middle East, Arms Embargo Now and World Beyond War, identified hundreds of shipments of Canadian-made F-35 fighter jet components, other aircraft parts, and explosives and flammable materials to U.S. facilities that supply the Israeli military.
The report also highlighted 433 shipments of Polish-made TNT routed through the Port Saguenay, Quebec to U.S. army ammunition plants that make bombs used by Israel in Gaza.

The report stated that “by deliberately exempting U.S.-bound arms from export regulation and allowing Canadian infrastructure to transport weapons, Canada is circumventing its obligations under international law.”

What sort of anger? The type that could be soothed by sending the White House a peace prize from a Poutinery?

UK IVF couples use legal loophole to rank embryos based on potential IQ, height and health


British fertility clinics raise scientific and ethical objections over patients sending embryos’ genetic data abroad for analysis

Couples undergoing IVF in the UK are exploiting an apparent legal loophole to rank their embryos based on genetic predictions of IQ, height and health, the Guardian has learned.

The controversial screening technique, which scores embryos based on their DNA, is not permitted at UK fertility clinics and critics have raised scientific and ethical objections, saying the method is unproven. But under data protection laws, patients can – and in some cases have – demanded their embryos’ raw genetic data and sent it abroad for analysis in an effort to have smarter, healthier children.

Dr Cristina Hickman, a senior embryologist and founder of Avenues fertility clinic in London, said rapid advances in embryo screening techniques and the recent launch of several US companies offering so-called polygenic screening had left clinics facing “legal and ethical confusion”.

They think of it as just giving their kid the best chances in life. They really need to listen to people like Vivian Wilson talk about what it's like to not live up to selected for traits in IVF.

We cannot ignore the fact that once the capacity for choice is introduced something essential is changed. I don't think there is an easy place to draw the line, I expect it is only degrees of gray past a certain point with preventing poor quality of life/debilitating disabilities but on the other hand it is very clear to me that there are very very very BAD places to draw the line and I absolutely do not trust the structures of society nor the choices of individuals not to violate basic human decency here. I am not an extremist on this, what I am is very worried about how I see a desire in people to choose their children in a way that would never be healthy even if they could.

What really gets ugly is that I could see this becoming a genetic arms race among nations. Sure, some nations can choose not to do it, but others will choose to proceed. This is why, as many downsides as AI has and despite all the groaning, we (as a society) can't really just opt out and halt development because our adversaries won't.

The fact that something can be done means that someone will do it if it conveys a competitive advantage.

This is a dark road to head down.

in reply to supersquirrel

For that reason, I don't think a line should be drawn. Much like abortion, it should be a choice.


New to calckey.world. Can someone give me a few hints/directions?


  1. What is an Antenna?
  2. Can I myself create a Warning to post at my profile?
  3. Can only the channels creators post on them? Because for what I een, others can comment on them.
  4. What is a play?
  5. What is a page?
  6. What is a Clip?
  7. Is there something alike tags to posts? I liked that on tumblr.
in reply to Meow-Misfit

I'm on a Sharkey instance too so I know the answer to a few of these:
1. An Antenna is a way to follow tags or keywords, you can create a single antenna with all the tags and keywords you care about and then check the Antenna feed/timeline just like you do the others. You can also create multiple antennas and each of them will be a separate feed/timeline that you can access from the antennas icon.
5. It's a custom web page that you can link to from your profile or posts, this was also a thing on tumblr.
6. It's basically a bookmark - there's also favorites which is basically the same functionality
7. You can add tags to posts, however do not add spaces to your tags - most of the other fediverse software doesn't like that. 2 ways to add hashtags: add the symbol to your post like a twitter post or add it at the end, or use the hashtag button at the button of the create post and then you don't include the hashtag symbol.


Bombed Chornobyl shelter no longer blocks radiation and needs major repair – IAEA


Drone attack that Ukraine blamed on Russia blew hole in painstakingly erected €1.5bn shield meant to allow for final clean-up of 1986 meltdown site

The protective shield over the Chornobyl disaster nuclear reactor in Ukraine, which was hit by a drone in February, can no longer perform its main function of blocking radiation, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has announced.

In February a drone strike blew a hole in the “new safe confinement”, which was painstakingly built at a cost of €1.5bn ($1.75bn) next to the destroyed reactor and then hauled into place on tracks, with the work completed in 2019 by a Europe-led initiative. The IAEA said an inspection last week of the steel confinement structure found the drone impact had degraded the structure.

The 1986 Chornobyl explosion – which happened when Ukraine was under Moscow’s rule as part of the Soviet Union – sent radiation across Europe. In the scramble to contain the meltdown, the Soviets built over the reactor a concrete “sarcophagus” with only a 30-year lifespan. The new confinement was built to contain radiation during the decades-long final removal of the sarcophagus, ruined reactor building underneath it and the melted-down nuclear fuel itself.

in reply to MicroWave

Yet another example of Russia being the war crime committing aggressor in the war.

People who take Russia's side embody values far closer to the Nazis than Ukraine ever has.

in reply to TheEighthDoctor

the US wants a peace treaty that wipes all the war crimes clean


And gives the invaders all the land they stole, while giving the victims of that invasion nothing but an empty promise to not do it again.

in reply to MicroWave

Bring in European/NATO country civilian aid to fix it. If Russia strikes again, you now have a reason to escalate support for Ukraine (including interpreting this as an attack on non Ukrainian assets). If they don't, the sarcophagus gets fixed. Which is the main goal.


Am i cooked? SAS or SATA


Very new to self hosting and truenas.

Got an old dell with 6x4tb of storage. Turns out they are all SAS drives and turns out hardware raid is the old thing now. Knowing none of this before what can I do with SAS drives connecting to my raid card (in photo) knowing that this is just a home NAS, SAS drives are more expensive and better to just go SATA.

What do you think?

Get a pcie to data, sell all the SAS drives and save up for 6x4tb of Seagate data drives?

What would you do with a dell server with old SAS drives if the end goal was a dependable home NAS for important home files?

I'm new to this so any input helps, thanks!

in reply to Possibly linux

Hardware raid is fine as long as you can still get the same hardware RAID card or Motherboard.
in reply to BCsven

I would argue that even then it's not great - at least for homelabs.

Raid controlller died?
Now you have to get the same one again to get your raid up again. This would be a good moment to upgrade to something more modern usually.

"alleging"

Nah, he was murdered. No question about it. Same with every other person in the boat strikes.

Just because it's done with a drone or a bomb doesn't make it any different, even if they were involved in drugs or not.

If you had a guy walking around with a bunch of heroin somewhere in the states, and a cop just shoots him down with a sniper without any reasoning other than the guy had heroin, the cop would go to jail for murder.

Well, if the system weren't complete corrupt that is.

in reply to Pyr

Just to add a little more to what you're saying. They guy is "allegedly" walking around with heroin when he gets taken out.




I asked the Pentagon about Pete Hegseth's mentor. Then the threats started.


Six weeks ago, Jack Posobiec asked me to comment on whether I have a “creepy fetish for Asian women.”

That was one of several false and wildly personal allegations that the far-right pundit and newly minted member of the Pentagon press corps said that he planned to include in “a story that I’m writing about you.”

I immediately understood his October 28 email to be a threat, though it was not made explicit. The day before, I had sent the Pentagon press office a series of questions concerning Eric Geressy, a senior Pentagon adviser to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth. Geressy, who served with Hegseth during a tour in Iraq in the mid-2000s, is part of the Pentagon effort to instill a “warrior ethos” within the US military. He now leads a team reviewing the role of women in the armed forces.

Calling Geressy “my toughest critic and my best mentor,” Hegseth in March presented him with the Distinguished Service Cross, the Army’s second-highest award for valor, for Geressy’s conduct following an ambush in Baghdad in 2007.

I had discovered that Geressy’s email address was linked to a public Goodreads page with a “currently reading” list that included various books featuring stories about “Asian wife sharing.” These pornographic works, with titles such as “Asian Wife Went With Her Dad’s Friend: A Cuckold Story,” appeared on the list alongside two books by Hegseth and a handful of military histories. They contain detailed descriptions of cuckolding, group sex, and scenes involving “ladyboys”—a term used to refer to Thai transgender women. The page, active since 2021, was taken down the day after I contacted the Pentagon and Geressy about it.

I also asked about a 1997 domestic violence allegation against Geressy, about his dating habits, and past relationships with foreign women. I inquired if the Pentagon had assessed those relationships as part of Geressy’s security clearance process, and, more broadly, if his personal life might create concerns about his susceptibility to foreign influence operations.

The Pentagon repeatedly asked for more time to address those questions. Eventually chief Pentagon spokesman Sean Parnell responded, in part: “Geressy has served for 38 years in the government, has been vetted numerous times by the relevant agencies, and has never posed a security risk or engaged in improper behavior as this piece tries to suggest. Mother Jones has stooped to a new low with this shoddy hit piece and should be ashamed of itself.”

Posobiec’s email arrived the day after my initial inquiries. The false claims he asked about, particularly the Asian fetish thing, seemed to mirror my questions. Posobiec, who in 2016 promoted the bogus Pizzagate conspiracy theory, gave me a deadline, 5 p.m. on October 29, that was the same as the one I had given the Pentagon press office. A Pentagon spokesperson and Posobiec both denied coordination. Geressy declined to comment. But considering the questions, timing, and Posobiec’s links to Defense Department officials, the situation seemed clear. This was either an incredible coincidence or a deliberate message: Publish your article and get smeared.

Rep. Ilhan Omar says Stephen Miller’s rhetoric echoes language used by Nazis


The Somali American lawmaker's comment comes after the noted racist and Homeland Security adviser essentially said migrants are ruining the U.S.

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) said on Sunday that the dehumanizing language used against immigrants by noted racist and Homeland Security adviser Stephen Miller is similar to how Nazis spoke of Jewish people.

Miller, who was the architect behind the Trump administration’s immigration policies, used such language last month in response to a Wall Street Journal op-ed urging Americans to refrain from demonizing all Afghan refugees, after one allegedly shot two National Guard members in Washington, D.C.

“This is the great lie of mass migration. You are not just importing individuals. You are importing societies,” Miller said on X. “No magic transformation occurs when failed states cross borders. At scale, migrants and their descendants recreate the conditions, and terrors, of their broken homelands.”



Lawmakers Pave the Way to Billions in Handouts for Weapons Makers That the Pentagon Itself Opposed


For the better part of a century, there was one thing even the U.S. government would not do to pad the profits of defense contractors.

Now, more than 80 years of precedent may be coming to an end.

On Thursday, lawmakers in the House approved a “pilot program” in the pending Pentagon budget bill that could eventually open the door to sending billions to big contractors, while providing what critics say would be little benefit to the military.

The provision, which appeared in the budget bill after a closed-door session overseen by top lawmakers, would allow contractors to claim reimbursement for the interest they pay on debt they take on to build weapons and other gadgets for the armed services.

Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar says her son was pulled over by ICE


Democratic Minnesota Rep. Ilhan Omar said federal immigration agents pulled over her son on Saturday and asked him to prove his citizenship.

"Yesterday, after he made a stop at Target, he did get pulled over by [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement] agents, and once he was able to produce his passport ID, they did let him go," Omar said in an interview with Esme Murphy on WCCO Sunday Morning.

The congresswoman said her son "always carries" his passport with him.

Omar said ICE also previously entered a mosque where his son and others were praying, but left without incident. After that, she said she "had to remind him just how worried I am, because all of these areas that they are talking about are areas where he could possibly find himself in and they are racially profiling, they are looking for young men who look Somali that they think are undocumented."

Climate change impacts every aspect of life on planet Earth




Why floods threaten one of the driest places in the world | A Washington Post investigation found that in one of the planet’s most arid regions, extreme rain and floods have become frequent and deadly


But as the climate has warmed, and offshore storms soak up more moisture from heated seas, the amount and distribution of rain is changing. While the number of rainy days has decreased, extreme events occur more often, pushing overall rainfall totals higher. The Post’s analysis found the strongest moisture plumes have greatly increased the chance for heavy rainfall across Oman, and have intensified over the last three decades. These wetter storms are dropping more rain into wadis, leading to more flash flooding and destruction.

Rain and rubble: Gaza families face a double threat in makeshift homes


By Ahmed Dremly in Gaza City, occupied Palestine
14 December 2025 12:47 GMT

Since winter began, Saber has lived in constant fear. Their fragile tent offered little protection from rain or wind, and he knew it could collapse at any moment.

Two weeks earlier, rainwater had already flooded the tent, reaching nearly 30cm. His daughters fell ill with colds that lasted for days. Desperate to prevent it from happening again, Saber borrowed money from one of his relatives to buy a plastic tarpaulin and reinforced the tent with wooden poles.

But when the latest storm hit Gaza a few days ago, his efforts proved useless.

“I spent the first night of the rain holding the tent up with my own hands as rain poured in from every direction,” Saber told Middle East Eye.

“It felt like I had done nothing at all. The tent collapsed on us in the first hours of the rain.”

Detalhes de uma delação inflamável


Beto Louco, investigado em fraude dos combustíveis, quer relatar à PGR pagamentos pedidos a Alcolumbre para bancar show de Roberto Carlos – uma parte dos milhões que diz já ter desembolsado para o senador

O Amapá celebrou os últimos dias de 2024 com uma programação que incluiu shows de astros da música como João Gomes, Alceu Valença, Pablo do Arrocha, Alok e a maior estrela, Roberto Carlos. Em um texto de divulgação, o governo do Estado celebrou o próprio governador, Clécio Luís, do Solidariedade, e o senador Davi Alcolumbre (União-AP). Dizia: “O trabalho sério e com responsabilidade de divulgação do Amapá feito pelo governador Clécio, com apoio do senador Davi, vem chamando a atenção da iniciativa privada e garantindo investidores para os eventos”. Não há detalhes de como o parlamentar, que não tem nenhum cargo no governo do Amapá, participou dos preparativos.

Uma versão muito menos congratulatória está detalhada em uma proposta de colaboração premiada apresentada à Procuradoria-Geral da República. Os candidatos a delator são dois investigados em fraudes bilionárias no setor de combustíveis: o empresário Roberto Leme — conhecido como Beto Louco, controlador da Copape, fabricante de gasolina — e seu sócio Mohamad Hussein Mourad, o “Primo”. A dupla propõe revelar como abasteceu boa parte do panteão do Congresso Nacional com dezenas de milhões de reais em troca de influência, entre 2021 e 2025, com destaque para Davi Alcolumbre, presidente do Senado, e Antonio Rueda, presidente do União Brasil.

Projets Libres rejoint LinuxFr.org !

Annoncé en grandes pompes jeudi 11 décembre lors du temps fort associatif d’Open Source Experience, Projets Libres devient le podcast de LinuxFr.org. Depuis avril 2023, le podcast Projets Libres vous apporte un éclairage sur les projets, communautés et les individus qui composent l’écosystème libre et open source. Les épisodes sont régulièrement promus sur LinuxFr.
Logo du podcast Projets Libres avec mention du rattachement au site LinuxFR.org
Tout en conservant son nom d’origine, il s’intègre désormais à la galaxie du site LinuxFr pour proposer, en plus des dépêches, journaux, liens… un format audio régulier consacré au logiciel libre, à ses actrices et acteurs et à ses projets. Ce rapprochement ne changera pas la ligne éditoriale du podcast, mais inscrit ce travail dans le temps long. À court terme, il inclut un nouveau logo et générique pour le podcast, et un lien d’accès au podcast depuis LinuxFr.org.

LinuxFr.org, de son côté, n’a plus vraiment besoin d’être présenté ici : le site communautaire francophone consacré au libre depuis 1998 regroupe dépêches, journaux, liens, forums, sondages, tribunes et autres contenus publiés par la communauté. L’arrivée d’un format audio s’inscrit donc comme une évolution naturelle pour enrichir encore les contenus mis en avant. Mais si vous voulez en savoir plus sur LinuxFr.org, sachez que nous avons eu droit à notre épisode dédié il y a deux ans et que nous vous invitons à l’écouter !

Pourquoi ce rapprochement ?

Sommaire


Le podcast a connu une accélération en 2025, et le besoin d’avoir une entité légale s’est fait sentir. L’idée étant de récolter des fonds pour financer notre travail, mais aussi de préciser le but non lucratif et les motivations de l’équipe. Plutôt que de créer une n-ième association dont il allait falloir s’occuper, au détriment du temps passé à la réalisation de podcasts.

De plus, nous pressentons clairement que les deux communautés se recoupent et aiment découvrir des projets libres en écoutant des retours d’expérience, des interviews ou des discussions techniques… et LinuxFr.org dispose justement d’une communauté intéressée par ce type de contenus. Le rapprochement permettra :

  • d’augmenter la visibilité des épisodes existants et futurs ;
  • de favoriser des synergies entre la rédaction des dépêches et la production audio (interviews associées à une dépêche, compléments audio d’articles, discussions prolongées, etc.) ;
  • de proposer un point d’entrée unique vers le contenu éditorial écrit et audio du site.

Pas d’inquiétude : le podcast garde sa ligne éditoriale, son nom et son style.

Concrètement, ça va se passer comment ?


Un nouveau générique et un nouveau logo vont très vite faire leur apparition, mais pour le reste, pas grand-chose ne change pour les personnes qui écoutent déjà Projets Libres :

  • les épisodes restent disponibles sur le site historique du podcast ;
  • le flux RSS existant continue de fonctionner dans vos lecteurs de podcast habituels ;
  • les archives restent accessibles.

Côté LinuxFr.org,

  • Un lien dans l’en-tête va apparaître aux côtés des Dépêches, Journaux, Liens, Forum, etc.
  • Chaque nouvel épisode fera l’objet d’une dépêche un peu plus étoffée permettant de continuer la discussion
  • La création d’une liste de diffusion dédiée

Le tout reste sous licence libre ou ouverte, dans la continuité de ce que pratiquaient déjà LinuxFr.org et le podcast.

Et pour la suite ?


Nous allons travailler à une intégration plus poussée, mais elle reste encore à imaginer. Et comme tout ce qui touche à LinuxFr.org, ce rapprochement se veut avant tout communautaire. Vous avez une idée de sujet ? Vous maintenez un projet libre et souhaitez en parler au micro ? Vous aimeriez participer à un enregistrement, proposer une chronique, ou simplement donner votre avis ?
N’hésitez pas à le signaler dans les commentaires, ou à contacter l’équipe du podcast.

Bonne écoute, et à bientôt pour un nouvel épisode ! 🎙️
