It's not about user-led synergy. The personal data market is slurped up by those that already have and are building correlations. Just because a user didn't report anything to their insurer doesn't mean an insurer sure as shit isn't going to want the data if they can link it to the user whatsoever, so long as it will make them more money.
This is hypothetical, of course, but it's the way the market of data brokers works.
You joke, but I guarantee there's a market. Consider health insurance companies that see an opportunity to charge everyone more unless they can prove their good brushing habits via app data.
Options are great, this is what drives the Linux community to come up with great solutions!
That said... Kate is an easy winner for me.
A fatalist take like this doesn't help anyone. Do you lock your doors at night even though you're not be continuously robbed? It's always worth it to try and protect yourself.
What's yours then?! Sounds like something a fed would say...
Also your mother's maiden name and the name of your elementary school.
Love me some graylog

Yes! Qsl cards are very much still alive and well. Some traditions will never die. The special event stations are fun to get cards from.
Super cool anecdote on the telescope thing, I've never heard of that.
I hope you get back on the radio, it's a great hobby. It's a nice stress relief outlet for me these days too.
Love to hear things like that! When I first got licensed the solar cycle was utter trash. We're past the peak now, but band conditions are still pretty good generally. A few watts and a wire will still get you somewhere with CW and some other forward error corrected modes (like FT8). I have a lot of fun with the digital stuff like AREDN, but it's definitely a different ball game and the old school SSB-based radio still has its place in my heart.
False positive what? I didn't give any specific examples of alerts, just simply monitoring metrics. Are you referring to the note on the Dnsmasq memory leak?
For any hams here, maybe this blog post will be up your alley. 73!

I write a tech and radio blog, if that's your schtick. If not, no worries. Post your rss feed when you're done!
They misspelled "backdoors."
This one is less focused on self-hosting a homelab service, but I thought might be interesting for the homelabbers here. I got into this hobby through my career in cybersecurity, and decided to write up a little post about a tool I frequently use, mitmproxy!
Leverage podman containers to force TLS traffic through mitmproxy for content inspection inside the encrypted transport. See application traffic in plaintext!

How to deploy and configure your own Identity Provider using Authelia to support OIDC single sign-on for self-hosted tailscale using headscale, all with Podman Quadlets!
cross-posted from: https://infosec.pub/post/28466166
If you've followed any of my self-hosted headscale with Podman series, I wrote up another "bonus" post talking about OIDC configuration with Authelia. Took some trial and error, so I figured I'd document it in the public notebook.
The OIDC settings in the Authelia config reference were the most nebulous to me, but they weren't entirely stumping. The hard part was interpreting whether my errors stemmed from an issue on the client application side or on the Authelia side.
I would imagine you could likely extend the config snippets from my post to work in your situation with a few tweaks. The big lift, the OIDC provider is covered, so I'd be curious to hear what else you have to tweak!

Why the hell is the text tilted? Am I going crazy?
I rely heavily on grafana and Prometheus for metrics, but am not familiar with suzie-q, so I'll have to check that out. Agreed though, LibreNMS is great, even if a bit old school.
Hey good for you, that's awesome! My home network is also dual stacked.
You're right about the apples to oranges comparison, but it's not so wildly off, because the commentary is on adoption of new standards, regardless of bolt-on "fixes." Unauthenticated SNMP went through three revisions prior to adding authentication and encryption support.

Display OPNSense firewall logs with GeoIP enrichment using data passed via Grafana Alloy and Loki
For those that were interested in my PART 1 post of the Grafana Loki OPNSense firewall log monitoring, I present you: PART 2! This one is the good one (albeit less technical) where we get the eye candy after getting the log ingestion pipeline already setup in part 1.
How to configure Grafana Alloy and Loki to ingest, normalize, and enrich OPNSense firewall logs

My first blog series on headscale with traefik through podman quadlets was pretty well received on here. I'm just getting started with this blog, and thought the second topic I recently worked on might be popular in this crowd too: a lower resource method of centralizing logs for OPNSense with Grafana Loki (and Alloy) including geoIP!

5g issues on mint mobile pSIM
About a month ago I switched from Google Fi to Mint Mobile. I figured since they were both T-Mobile MVNOs the service would the same, and it was a way for me to move away from the Google Fi app requirement, and this the play services requirement on my graphene pixel 8 pro. Everything initially seemed to be working great, then I realized I only ever have LTE. I've tried all the APN settings, auto discovered, manually configured in accordance with the mint documentation, and the T-Mobile APN. They all give me good service, but only ever LTE. Previously on both T-Mobile and Fi, on the same cell towers, I had 5g, so I know it's not a service issue. Mint support is the worst thing I've ever encountered in my life and they're useless as far as troubleshooting. Notably, the other phone on the plan is a stock pixel 7 pro and has the same issue, so I think it's a provisioning issue not a graphene issue, but I figured I'd ask the crowd here because of the general level of aptitude.
My strategy for self-hosting a tailscale control-plane server using headscale, deployed with podman quadlets (Part 2)
Part 1 of my Headscale and Traefik blog post seems to have gotten some good traction, so I just wanted to share with the community that I just published part 2!
Traefik with Socket Activation via Podman Quadlets
My strategy for self-hosting a tailscale control-plane server using headscale, deployed with podman quadlets (Part 1)
Shameless self-plug here. I wrote a blog post to document my methodology after having some issues with publicly available examples of using Podman and traefik in a best-practices config. Hopefully this finds the one other person that was in my shoes and helps them out. Super happy for feedback if others care to share.
