Yeah, my plan will be to use a domain that I don’t actually use for my email to start with, make sure that I can reliably send and receive mail with it. Then add my normal email domain for sending-only to start, will just need to add it to my spf and dkim records. Once I test with that and verify that I can reliably send mail then I can fully switch things over.
Still trying to decide what do do about full disk encryption.
Thinking that maybe I can host a decryption key on private github repo, have the preboot environment use a local key to download the decryption key to ephemeral storage and use it to unlock the disk. This doesn’t make it truly secure because anyone with access to the boot partition could figure out what is happening and do it manually. but it would make it difficult enough that a bored sysadmin at the vps provider couldn’t just browse me data easily.
I’d really like it better if I could have it send me a push notification to my phone to authorize the unlock. Maybe I can set that up with how ever I decide to host the decryption key.
Toying with the idea of running my own email server. Lots of people say this is a bad idea.
Been doing lots of research. I have a VPS for it already and want to set it up with postfix, dovecot, roundcube, and mariadb.
I don’t want to host locally because I don’t want it to depend on my internet connection and because my ip address will likely change at some point and most residential IPs are blacklisted.
But also don’t want to host it on someone else’s machine unless I can totally encrypt the drive. I have been looking at how to do full drive encryption on a vps hard drive by adding dropbear ssh to the initsys so I can ssh in and enter the decryption password when rebooting.
This also doesn’t seem ideal, because it would require me to be available to do this for every reboot.
So still researching to see what other options there are.
Doesn’t turn 2fa into 1fa?
I like to know that even if someone got into my bitwarden vault they would still not be able login to my most important stuff.
I had a dumb tv that I was using with a Roku streaming box. The TV became no longer supported because of the HDMI version that shipped with the TV. Roku stopped supporting certain versions of hdmi to prevent piracy.
Even if you have a “Dumb” device, newer tech may just say no.
On the days I go into the office:
Tennis shoes, Jeans, Button down short sleeve shirt, or Polo shirt.
Work from home days:
Same thing except I wear a t-shirt.
TBF, if a potential partner is super excited about something you never heard of, looking into it is a good thing.
Conservatives, and other assholes, are good about hiding their crazy behind seemingly innocent things, like pepe the frog.
I do mostly, I turn it almost all the way off with a valve on the shower head.
The running stream is thinner than a pencil.
If I turn it off all the way, it is cold when I turn it back on.
I bought a 21 inch 1080p Viewsonic monitor from a thrift store just the other day for $6. I got it just for this use case.
I had a spare for this purpose up until about a month ago when the backlight went out on one of my daily drivers.
Also, a couple of days ago I got a pretty nice steelcase apex 3 keyboard with RGB lights for $5.
Well now I want an old ugly bike. Where do you park yours? 😉
I use Debian everywhere but if I need a Live Linux environment to recover files, clone a drive, wipe a drive, or really anything else I use ventoy and a Linux mint iso.
I'm a cool grandpa with old hardware.
I'm using servicenow. First time and it's pretty bad. But I hear that it is actually worse than normal because they customized the hell out of it trying to make it match the previous solution.
When I started working at NI they were still using Lotus Notes. 🤮

One of my favorite snacks lately is tamari almonds and a slice of smoked provolone cheese.
That's what we assume.
