• The only reason why I hesitate to recommend Ubiquiti cameras is even their cheapest offerings are kind of expensive.

  And although you can run isolated from the Internet, managing updates is a bit painful. (Ask me how I know)

• They gave POE cameras that will just work with an Ethernet cable (although they gave weird POE requirements). Their USB powered ones are wifi connected.

  Source: I’ve had them for years and am happy with the setup.

• I have a dedicated IOT ssid and vlan (when my Orbi goes, I don’t know what I’ll replace it with…).

  Each wifi node on that ssid is in client isolation mode and I carefully monitor where outbound traffic from that segment is headed.

  It’s a lot of work, but it makes me feel slightly better about a thermostat, self-hosted security camera setup, and home assistant setup.

• I finally broke down and bought a second hand PS5 last summer. My gaming rig was showing its age and I wanted to play Clair Obscur with decent graphics. I had been saving for a bit because I also wanted to play Spooder-Man 2 and Astro.

  I made sure to buy the drive separately so that I could also play what limited Blu-rays I own.

  Now I’m pissed they got my money for the games and drive add-on.

• so I picked up an Oculus quest 1 - any idea how to actually get it to connect to steam? Looks like the steam link app only supports later versions.

• Okay, so having done some data center work in my time - how are you going to have robots do things like rack and plug in servers? Troubleshoot physical motherboards for issues?

  Most DCs I’ve worked in are packed to the hills with racks, not many were standardized or logically laid out. If zuck wants to have his data centers built from the ground up with robots in mind, maybe this could work. But dumping them in existing places would be super challenging.

  Oh, and I’ve never seen a dc like the post picture. That’s waaaaaay too much inefficiently utilized floorspace.

• You could either set up DNS overrides on your inwards facing DNS server, leaving external resolution to something like cloudflare (with DDNS), or you have a second internal domain for internal resolution.

  I chose the latter for my homelab - it’s service.lan.fqdn inside and service.fqdn on the outside. Since I use a wildcard cert, it’s still protected with TLS if I access it internally or externally.

  Edit: this also solves hair pinning as your internal resolution will go to your LAN network, not your public IP

  on My domain is accessible from external networks but not from my internal network. Might anyone know why? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world · 30 Aug 2026

  If anything, this shows just how bad people (and companies) are at cyber security.

• For me, I have multiple OIDC compatible systems (Proxmox, Netbox, Synology, Zabbix, Vault, etc).

  So keycloak offers a SSO option to make my life easier with a single account to worry about instead of individual ones.

  Plus MFA because it’s cool?

  If you’re like me and only using it internally on a homelab, the risks are lessened, but if you expose keycloak to by the Internet - boy howdy

• In our car, there’s three levels of lane assist.

  1. Hey, try to stay in the lines. If you start to veer, the steering wheel will do the smallest corrections and vibrate a lot.
  2. The car will actively help keep you in the middle of the lane. (I mostly turn this on if I’m swapping my prescription glasses for sunglasses, then it goes right off again).
  3. Same as #2, but if you put on a turn signal to change lanes the car auto changes when it’s clear. (If you put your signal on with all this off and a car is in your blind spot it freaks out with beeps and vibrations).

  I fucking hate #3. The only good part is it forces you to turn on the turn indicator. It both wants your hands on the wheel for the maneuver, but also will cancel the change if it feels any “driver correction”.
