Ooooh that looks interesting. I haven’t messed around much with tailscale since I set it up a few years back and hadn’t noticed this. Funny, I was just the other day wondering if they might have something like that, but didn’t look it up. Thanks!

Yeah, what @anamethatisnt@lemmy.world suggested is definitely the easiest thing and super practical - I got family members on my tailnet for this purpose. I am however now also looking into some kind of tunneled, reverse proxied and authenticated way to expose a few of my services to other friends where I don’t want to have to put them on tailscale or potentially expose them to more than needed via that route.

I haven’t started yet, but I am updating my network set up soon to install a dedicated OPNsense router as the edge for my network. From there, the plan is to have a cloudflare tunnel that accesses some of these services via a caddy reverse proxy, with Authelia for authentication. That’s the part I have studied enough to feel confident I can do. I am a little weaker on the networking aspects of this, which is where I need to study some more - like isolating those services that are exposed in my network, while still giving them access to some other needed resources within it, etc.

I was looking for something similar for a while, like something for simple relational data with some GUI for data entry, aka “I don’t wanna write a little web app just for this”. I had used AirTable at work before at work so that’s what came to mind and my searching was basically for “open source or selfhosted alternative to AirTable”.

Came across some decent candidates, can’t remember all the names, but the one I tried, Grist, was pretty straightforward and did the job: easy relational data setup, GUI for all basic data types including file uploads, easy to create input forms, and widgets that talk to the API and you can customize with JavaScript. Setup was easy with docker

EDIT: other names that came up when looking were NocoDB and BaseRow ( I don’t remember why I didn’t try them for my specific needs)

I just started using both recently and it’s great. For the fzf file search, there’s even some extension that can show a preview pane of text files and even images!

Same here, I have chromium installed basically just for teams usage

That’s a thing where I am from. Also, only day where alcohol cannot be sold, as you must do your duty sober. Fair compromise if you ask me: if I already know who I am voting for, I also had the prescience to buy my booze the night before :)

Never heard of mktemp before, that’s need. Come to think of it I never thought about how /tmp is really used by the system in the first place, time to do do studying I guess

That’s awesome. I don’t have one of their products but generally feel a good vibe about the company

One neat thing about swapping the motherboard is that you can easily just 3d print a case for it and use it as a server! I saw a post on the homelab community where FW was selling older model MBs for cheap, and people snapped them up for that. Someone sells a slim case for it, but they also have a printable model for it online

How well this goes depends on a lot of factors: are those languages native to either parent? What language is spoken where you live? Do you have other people in their lives that speak these languages? Are there other contexts in which those languages are spoken beyond the home (social occasions, TV, etc)?

Apparently, for it to really stick, it takes a lot more than just a parent speaking. I recommend listening to this podcast episode with a researcher that runs a bilingual child development lab. TBH, it’s a bit disheartening to hear how hard it is to make it work: https://yourparentingmojo.com/captivate-podcast/bilingual/

The questions I asked above come from listening to that. Another big takeaway is consistency. One parent should stick to only one language talking to the kid.

I live in the US and I am a native Portuguese speaker, and my wife is a native Farsi speaker. We both spoke our own languages to our kid, and at age 2 he would mostly only speak those languages, and would even translate between them naturally (like I would say “go tell mom X” in Portuguese, and he would go and tell her in Farsi). But at age 3 he started just replying in English… Even went to Iran at 4, and could understand all his cousins but only replied in English. Farsi had a better shot because he has more exposure to it than Portuguese, but still… Honestly, it’s one of my bigger disappointments in my parenting because it was really important to me, but I myself fumbled with it: when he started speaking in English to me, I started sometimes mixing it up and responding in English, which is not good for this (I have lived in the US since high school, so it’s honestly a little easier for me at this point too). I was also a little concerned about his development in English and communication with his friends in school, but that’s not necessary, that will come no matter what, so stick with it. My brother also lives in the US and is married to another Portuguese speaker, so his 2 kids born here speak it just fine since it was the only language at home. Their grammar and vocabulary is a little weird, but they can get by just fine.

Edit: sorry for any repetition, when I went to comment I couldn’t see any other comments for some reason and thought I was the first to respond

That would be a very targeted question! Like who would have that as a password reset question? Oh wait, the kind of people who run servers for a living! Damn, that’s clever 😅

Woah, thanks for that bit of history! As someone who went from DOS to Win 3.1 outside of the US, I didn’t even know that was a thing!

IIRC, Azure represents the largest slice of Microsoft’s revenue… And ironically, a fair chunk of that is run on Linux

Right! I was just doing it out of memory, but there’s many other weird ones. I was looking this up many years ago after an Iranian friend told me it’s hop hop there. I remember that for dog, rooster, and I think maybe also pigs and cows, there was wide variation across the world. But for cats, meow was really consistent across most languages. I might be wrong, it’s been a while.

Wow, I generally knew about the vast surveillance apparatus Israel has, but the details are beyond dystopian

Ah, thanks, also, hilarious examples!

What’s DAE?

Coming from the 9000 series, I am wondering what do you like about the 5700 series HAL?

“like diapers or alcohol” lol. That resonates to me as a parent

So that’s funny, but you know what I seriously find to be very strange? How different the onomatopoeias for a dog’s bark (well, any common animals sound) are in different languages. Here are the ones I know from experience, done kinda phonetically in English: American English: woof woof Brazilian Portuguese: ow ow (au au) Farsi: hop hop
