The ip shouldnt change unless the server is down for a period of time and the ip is dynamic.

If it is returning OK then it sounds like duckdns is working as intended

I have been using duckdns for a few years without issues. It should be simple enough , just set up a cron job with your details as listed on their site where you configure it. This keeps your dns entry up to date.

If you want a quick and easy way to share the odd file you could set up a syncthing shared folder and COPY things in to it that you want to share. When the other side MOVES them out of the shared folder they will be removed from the shared folder on your side.

The advantage of this is security. No access is given to your system. If your friends box is compromised you dont have an nfs mount or ssh key on their machine. The worst that can be done to you is copies in the shared folder are removed or malicious files are placed in the shared folder but they wont be able to execute.

You also dont need to open any ports for syncthing , it will use relays if it cant make a direct connection.

You can use a ddns such as duckdns or host on github pages with jekyll or something

I have something similar . I have WG on the host to access my services and gluetun in a container using openvpn for specific services.

In my case I have the host wg pass through connections to the outside via iptables rules but I’m not forwarding the connection to gluetun. I have the ip of my server as my ip.

In your case as you want a commercial vpn ip as your exit ip you would need to use iptables to pass traffic between the 2 networks .

Apply with a load of shit ones and let the AI scan them and just opt out with your real one

I agree with the measures I hope they address companies doing it too as it could be a loophole.

We were thinking about a move to Spain soon and in years to come possibly renting out the home we buy and live in South America to be closer to family.

I imagine in this case , as a non EU resident despite being an EU citizen the tax would apply.

Shower and a cup of tea or coffee

Syncthing ?

No I already have a full time job.

I just have a finished one where I move them after I finish the story or I’m done with a game.

As an engineer, I hate having to repeat the same thing again and again so take notes and make sure you understand them.

Secondly know the product or project intimately relative to your level. For example if I work on the project and I know it from the code and infrastructure and everything else in addition to how it works for the end user then the least I expect is that the person asking the questions has used the software with a demo account on UAT or something so that my answers will not go over their heads. Knowing the product will also allow you to talk to clients better and you will know what it can and can’t do.

I’m ok with someone if I see they are willing to make the effort regardless of their level, if someone is coming to me to do their work for them , then I lose my patience fast and will very soon be less helpful and prioritize my actual work over their bs.

Finally as I said we are often overworked and not looking to have more things to do. We are the ones that have to stay late to fix someone’s mess or get called to patch an emergency zero day in some software used by the company on a weekend. In addition we support everyone else as without us there is no product and no jobs for the rest of you. We are at the bottom of the pyramid holding the rest up with the CEO being the prick at the top.

Finally dont just engage when you need something, get to know them and see if you can help them with something. Maybe a heads up about a project or client to avoid or some thing.

It is good that you want to bridge the gap and I wish more in your position would do so.

+1 for an actual tech focused community. I think it has to be focused on software or hardware as a rule. News about stocks, CEOs, rebranding etc should not be allowed. Maybe put them in tech_news or something.

I want to read about what new feature the openbsd folks are working on or innovations by the quebes os team or a new RISC based laptop or the raspberry pi 420 that can play half life 3.

Haha thanks, I was playing mass effect Andromeda at the time I though of it.

Its fine when they do it and we get fined when we do it

At one time searching for linux was enough. https://www.eweek.com/security/linux-lands-on-nsa-watch-list/

They weren’t joking with “collect it all”.

As late as possible, if I’m actually needed, then I join a minute later to not have to pretend with bs small talk

Horrific , that sack of shit is no husband. It reminds me of the recent french case, i suspect this one probably won’t be as big as it’s in a non western country.

None of us are free unless we are all free.

Getting rid of meta is good for democracy. Mario where you at ?

3-4 days fully remote would be ideal. Flexible hours too, define a core block of time for people to have meetings if needed.
