ChrislyBear , to selfhosted in Q: Docker container joining existing network with fixed ip (via docker compose)

I have never cared about the IP addresses of my docker containers and never will.

Why do you? There is a docker internal DNS, you can just resolve IPs by service name/container_name.

MoogleMaestro ,

There is a docker internal DNS, you can just resolve IPs by service name/container_name.

Yes, and you can also control that as well by messing with docker network groups. I find the ability to network into docker servers from the host to be super simple.

What I haven't figured out yet is whether or not I can give my docker services their own IP on my router for access from another system on a fixed or reserved IP.

ChrislyBear ,

I see. Sure, that’s a valid way to manage networking. I personally don’t like to do this manually anymore, just like I don’t drive stick shift anymore.

If you want to expose a service to the WWW I’d recommend using a reverse proxy. E.g. I use Traefik 2; it gets the config needed automatically from 5-6 labels per container and I don’t need to bother with IPs, certificates, NAT and what have you. It just creates virtual hosts procures a LetsEncrypt certificate and directs the traffic to the target container completely on its own.
Spinning up a container and trying it out with its own subdomain with correct SSL certificates immediately never has been easier. (I have a “*” DNS entry to my Treafik server).

You also could try installing cloudflared and create a Cloudflare tunnel. This way you don’t even have to forward any ports in your router.

Just some tips, if you want to explore new things :)

NewDataEngineer ,

What I haven’t figured out yet is whether or not I can give my docker services their own IP on my router for access from another system on a fixed or reserved IP.

You can. You have to set up a macvlan on your network and then assign an IP to your container that sits on your router’s subnet.

I can only use traefik with a macvlan because Synology DSM uses ports 80 and 443. I assign traefik its own IP and use pihole’s DNS to route wildcard subdomain to it.

I wrote a guide in my trillium notes. If you’re interested I can share.

db2 , to nostupidquestions in What is Reddit account scrubbing/washing?

It’s where every post and comment get edited with something (random text, “fuck /u/spez” or similar) and then usually deleted.

dickbutler ,

Why delete? Why not just replace all messages with ”fuck spez”?

chinpokomon ,

For a long time, before the current snafu, editing your comment before deleting it was the only way to expunge it. Probably no real guarantee, because archiving the database was already a thing, but applying the edit used to also update the archive, supposedly. If it was just delete, then it would linger after you deleted your account. Modifying your comment or post, then deleting your account, that leaves the modified comment even though you now can't go back and make changes or delete it. The suggestion I believe is to modify the content, then just delete the account. Deleting the comment isn't enough supposedly, because some people have said that their deleted comments have been restored.

shawn , to linux in What was your first experience using Linux? How old were you? Stick around or did you go back to windows before eventually circling back to Linux?

After reading this question, I got strangely excited the thinking I had a relatively older and/or unique experience. Nope, most all you guys are as old as me. Late 90’s, early 2000…got a red hat CD in some literature…installed it. Now only use Windows if I need to for work which I haven’t needed to for over a decade.

eric5949 OP ,

I’m starting to think all the older folks are the ones who left reddit lol. Between stuff like this and the old memes, I’m definitely on the younger side of people here lol.

Pretty well, it lets me do things Jesus frowns upon and actually enjoy my life instead of being a spiritual slave to a human invention.

memfree ,
@memfree@lemmy.ml avatar

I can’t think of anything I do that Jesus would frown upon. Leviticus? Yeah, I eat shellfish and the like, so probably he’d frown, but I think the main complaint from Jesus would be that I haven’t given up all my worldly goods and helped the sick and poor enough – and I don’t think he’d be all that mad, regardless. It’s not like I’m trying to make profits off money-changing in front of the temple.

I agree, I don’t need some 2000 year old book to dictate how I live my life.

I will live my life on my own terms and if someone has a problem, they can respectfully leave my life.

Doesn’t doing all of the things you want to do still make you a slave, spiritual or otherwise, to a human invention? Your desires are created by yourself or others.

That’s not what being a slave means, at all, so no.

Last I tried, 1-2 months ago, voice navigation was not working properly for me, somehow very rudimentary output like just saying “next left” or something.

Also since I don’t have a phone holder I don’t look at the screen while driving in the car, so I turn of the screen and Organic Maps does not give any voice output anymore then.

Osmand+ works better in both cases.

@OptimisticPrime @mp3 I love organic maps. Only downside is no voice navigation and no live traffic but I just peep my screen every now and again

purpleferns , to android in Discussion: What Android devices are you using?

Samsung Galaxy A51 5G. Had it for a few years and it works great, just wish it had more internal storage.

JackGreenEarth , to nostupidquestions in How should one start using peertube if they want to make videos?

Peertube is the fediverse equivalent of youtube. So like Lemmy, you pick an instance, follow their rules, and post content. Like Lemmy, you will reach a smaller audience than the proprietary platform (in this case, youtube).

If you want to remove google from your life, or can’t be bothered with the anti consumer bullshit of proprietary platforms like youtube, then use Peertube.

If you don’t care about the above, and just want to reach a larger audience, use youtube.

You can always upload to both.

PorkrollPosadist ,
@PorkrollPosadist@lemmy.ml avatar

I feel like PeerTube hasn’t broken through yet in the way Mastodon has, and Lemmy is kind-of broaching on. Mastodon itself is heavy for what it does. I need 8GB of RAM, >600GB of storage, and 2 CPU cores to run a 100 person instance. Lemmy is leaner (as well as some microblog style alternatives to Mastodon like Misskey / Pleroma). Peertube, on the other hand, can only get so lean. Hosting video content is orders of magnitude more intensive than hosting a text-based message board. It is much more costly to do this, and to compete with platforms like YouTube, it is not sufficient for just spin up a single instance. You also need to work out CDNs, caching, load balancing, etc.

Like Jack said, I’d just find an instance you vibe with and post stuff there, but it will take a lot of resources to grow the network as a whole.

Dirk_Darkly ,

I have confidence it’ll get there someday. Remember that YouTube started out as a small, unknown service in the days before ubiquitous cloud computing and storage providers. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.

rufus ,

I wouldn’t be so sure. I too, hope it will get there some day. But honestly, many creators are trying to make money with their videos or earn a living by making videos. This isn’t possible on Peertube and there is no simple solution. (Patreon seems not enough and advertising is difficult and not liked in the fediverse).

This means all those video creators and hence their followers have no benefits from switching to Peertube.

Dirk_Darkly ,

Perhaps, or perhaps it will be like Lemmy/kbin where people are reinvigorated to create simply for the pleasure of creating, whereas they only preciously scrolled anonymously. You may not remember, but there was a time where YouTube was new, you were not making any money from your videos and yet people made all sorts of things. There was also Newgrounds and eBaum’s World and I’m sure a few others I forgot.

Sure, if they gained traction, they’d make a business out of it, but there was no algorithm to worry about or analytics to monitor. The current corporate options are far from the only possible solution and it will fade in time just like everything else has.

rufus ,

The Linux Experiment did a video on this: tilvids.com/w/99oSPPBJb3tkdVLc3fsSe5

Well, i remember those times. I’d miss a few people who earn money and make entertaining stuff, like ElectroBOOM or Mark Rober doing squirrel mazes or annoy porch pirtates, Maker’s Muse 3d-printing puzzles for wild parrots… People shooting documentaries. We’d lose some of those people, because they’d need to work a real job. Maybe they’d still make a video every now and then… And for some videos you need funding. I think Mark Rober can probably still ‘waste’ 10000$ for a video because he can promote himself and the stuff he sells, but nobody else can. Same for things like people buying things and test and compare them independently. (Like computer components. PC magazines used to do stuff like that, but they also still struggle with earning money.)

On the flip side… We’d get rid of all the content farms at once. All those life hacks that don’t work. All the fake stuff that’s only there because the video takes 5min to make and some stupid(?) people watch it. It would be gone instantly. And all the reaction streamer people, too.

I really love things people create of their own accord. Like old youtube videos. Or art like music, published under a creative commons license. Cory Doctorow publishing novels you can download them for free. The funny Sysadmin stories from usenet times. All the free software out there. I really (figuratively) have no clue why people use something like windows instead of linux. it’s really awesome. I prefer the free software video editors like Kdenlive. I wouldn’t want to use some proprietary one.

There is great stuff out there, that isn’t based on the business model of selling something now. Or tracking people and advertising stuff to them. I’ve lost track of what i was trying to say. The world would be kind of a different place. I don’t know if better or worse would be correct categories. But certainly different.

Chozo ,

Yeah, PeerTube is currently only accounting for about 3% of Fediverse use right now, per https://fedidb.org/

EDIT: Added a link because I don't think LemmyWorld shows attachments from Kbin for some reason.

rufus ,

well, the nice thing about peertube is: it’s supposed to be peer to peer, like torrent. you don’t need to work out CDNs, caching, load balancing etc because all the viewers can help sharing the videos. (other instances can, too but you need to enable that redundancy per video or instance)

of course that has limits and doesn’t scale in some circumstances. but that’s the idea.

sparklecherry , to nostupidquestions in Does not having any social media presence have any negative impact on a person's social life?

As an introvert who never wanted my business to be out in the open with my real name attached, no. Was always told never use your real name online and how many times people these days had themselves bitten for doing the opposite it should be obvious by now. Not really the masses fault but the standard from Facebook years ago.

Anticorp , to linux in What was your first experience using Linux? How old were you? Stick around or did you go back to windows before eventually circling back to Linux?

Oh gosh, it must have been 1999? 2000ish? I have no idea what distro it was or if distros were even a thing. It took me 3-4 days to get all of my driver’s working. I clunked along with it for a week or two until an update borked the system and I didn’t know how to fix it, so I went back to Windows. I tried many more times over the following decades, usually with similar results. About 6 years ago I really learned a lot more about Unix servers and therefore about Linux itself. So I installed it again and I’ve had it on at least one computer in the house ever since then.

Well, anecdotally I have no mainstream social media, and also no real friends where I live. But that might also be the Persistent Dysphoric Disorder’s fault. Also, people suck and I’m fine spending most of my time with my wife.
