Also check out zerotier. I've been using it because it has a lot more features that tailscale (although it's been 4-5 years that I have the zerotier network set up).

Pretty damn useful to connect to services in my internal network wherever I go. I have it set up on my router, so I don't need to install it on every single server in the house :D

Does this work for terragrunt as well?

I pressed on the link that is the documentation to support more languages, but I got a 404.

https://stats.dictummortuum.com/#/prices/

I'm doing some work on a website that compares boardgame prices. I scrape about 10 boardgame stores in Greece and save them in a database that I've got in a raspberry pi. Then I try to associate the listings with games that are on boardgamegeek.com and then I put them online.

This has a couple of interesting problems. E.g. scraping data, associating scraped data to a basepoint, so that I can group them with the data from other stores, how to save the data in a website that is basically serverless, etc.

I'm more of a fira sans / fira code guy.

However, setting up the fonts that you want on linux can be a bit tricky and I've lost many hours trying to get a config that does it for me, so good job for the guidance that you provide.

Well, most of the services do not even have a noticeable lag, but nextcloud is taxing!

I've been monitoring what VPSs are an option. I'd like to have something faster, because it'll be cost-effective, but I don't want another headache.

Nice!

I have a raspberry 2b+ with several services: ldap, syncthing, gitea, cups server, minidlna, torrent server, NFS, nginx for PHP stuff like phpldapadmin, phpmyadmin, nextcloud, etc.

I realized that I don't need a public IP. I set up zerotier on all my machines and pointed a subdomain that I own to that IP. OK, other people can't visit it, but I rarely need them to.

It's perfect, but nextcloud is slow :( Maybe an upgrade to rpi 4 will help it be faster.

Zerotier doesn't use wireguard though - which makes a difference. I have a private mesh of my family's computers on different networks and tailscale/wireguard was blazingly fast. I ended up using zerotier though, because it had an android client and availability was more important to me than speed at this point.

You are right. My point was that there is nothing magical in Greek ancestry, but a mixture of great and stupid individuals, as in all societies.

Don't feel envy about such generalities. To give you an example, my hero and fellow Athenian, Socrates, was killed by his own people.
