Wow gross. Glad you got out, I doubt many of your colleagues did well from the buyout.

Well post the call recording on LinkedIn if you do

Yes, I attribute security significant misconfigurations to a lag between new service deployments and a relevant review by network security (in a business environment. At home it’s just me.)

So I’m running Milestone VMS, Synology NAS and maybe in a day a minecraft server for the kids, which should all be available outside my home. I’m using the mikrotik HexPOE which is my main router/firewall.

Very little is changing over time… I have a proliant salvage server running proxmox with some hosts and the router only port forwards to an NGINX proxy manager instance for the web interfaces on those hosts. I run a synology NAS separate from the proliant hardware that runs through the proxy.

I know I don’t understand it all, and i’m open to suggestions.

Fun fact I made my sales team standardize on Omada for all network hardware we are providing (highrise security systems, so SDN is usually out of scope) I was considering replacing my ubiquiti AC Pro soon, but I didn’t settle on a new model of access point yet. What are the mikrotik wifi APs bad at? if it’s meshing I will only have one.

I didn’t look at The Dude before, but it doesn’t seem depreciated?

forgotten

that’s why that guy seemed so unburdened! I understand him better now

Years ago, another trade worker on a construction site was using their wifi stuff, and mentioned using it at home. I went and picked up the hexPOE router and i’m pretty happy with it, but all i’m doing is port forwarding and I set up a rule to capture all DNS requests and shunt them into my pihole.

The documentation is pretty spiffy and public.

I’m not really sure if this seems good because I don’t know any better, or it’s good because it’s good.

edit Gli-net seems nice, but i’m a stickler of using a WAP separate from the router. I know I pay more.

Any opinion on Mikrotik?

No but I want to

I miss my q6600 sometimes.

Amazing

I like step 18

didn’t just cut out some harmless turn of phrase written into the covenant that actually has no racist meaning

I gotta say, because of the nature of systemic racism turns of phrase that are ambiguous or are explicitly neutral can be prejudiced or discriminatory is different ways.

We can’t rely on a statistical model to tell us what is infringing on right. We have to be critical.

Twenty years ago when I was 13, I started doing web stuff. This was back when everything was super simple, so everything to get a webserver up was super manual. I’ll mention port forwarding at my current job and there’s this slice of people that are 28-40 years old that know what I’m talking about.

A burner phone with a hotspot would have been cheaper.

Oh damn

I guess you’re normal

Hey don’t be so hard on yourself

You can also use it to fool the rubes around you

If I owned a bar I would have a bonus for any of my employees that kicked me out, deserved or not.

That’s awesome
