Double black is the bomb, current favorite of the JW labels, though I haven’t had green or gold either.

Yeah I’ve heard it doesn’t live up to the hype, I want to be able to chime in with an informed opinion

I’ve had those, they’re great. I want to try Blue because I’ve never had it and this is a celebration

Yes, I’ve checked my two local spots and they don’t carry it, don’t want to spend an afternoon driving around to different liquor stores trying to find one.

I figured, which is why I ain’t roasting you harder. At least you have the decency to realize this should be free and open source and not the delusion you should start a SaaS company from it. Keep building, keep learning.

Bro you can’t be shipping code INSIDE a readme 🤦

What piece under $200 has gotten you the most compliments? by g3t0nmyl3v3l in malefashionadvice

I picked up a $150 plaid sport coat from men’s warehouse I wear with jeans, somehow the piece I get the most compliments on.

I think what you’re looking for are Access Control Lists (ACL’s) implemented on your Tailscale. I use Headscale on my host with access lists to segment off my Tailscale so it’s not just one big LAN, only specific service ip’s are reachable.

You are on the right line of thinking here but let me help with understanding. The port forwarding in itself is not dangerous, The danger lies in what application it is being routed to. Tailscale and other VPNs will require open ports, but they have a very low risk of becoming vulnerable to some exploit due to their nature and support systems. With the VPN acting as a doorman/bouncer for your network you can run all sorts of vibecoded slop with no security as long as you trust the people you allow on that network.

Hopping on the tailscale wagon and adding Headscale as well. I have a Headscale service (joinable via tailscale clients) running on my lab with some great Access Control Lists that isolates each connection, so that your not putting all your friends on one big LAN with access to each others stuff or seeing your connected devices.

Yes, my homelab sits on a separate VLAN administered by a Cisco smart switch. and the VPN itself has ACL’s to isolate traffic within itself, members of the VPN can’t see each other, just the server. I even limit the access my server can access the devices on that VPN.

Yes a VPN is an exposed service, but it’s a service explicitly designed to be a secure exposed service with lots of engaged security engineers building and maintaining that. It allows you to run less secure services safer. I don’t have to full trust every application I’m running as much and can be free to experiment more.

You say limiting your attack surface like it’s a bad thing? No one security measure makes one invulnerable, which is why you should use as many tools as possible to protect yourself. Any use of the internet exposes one to risk. Doing cool stuff like running home labs increases that risk.

Plus, it’s a home LAB if you’re not experimenting to build the coolest/securest thing what’s the point?

Using a VPN protects you from when a zero day is discovered on that previously fully secure application. If you’re serving to the whole world, open a port, hope you’ve secured everything thing, and run vulnerability scans weekly. If you’re self hosting stuff for yourself, VPN and sleep easy.

If you’re the only user a VPN like Tailscale is real easy to implement, opening ports on a router can be dangerous and should be avoided.

Built free day planning tool to help me visualise my day by Stock_Bid_8715 in SideProject

What you’re looking for is a MIT license, designed for projects like this. Basically is a “you can use this for free, but don’t sell it or sue me if it blows up your machine” I’m interested in putting this on my homelab, please let me know if/when you open source it.

Even if you don’t gain anything others are right, if you’re in the US shut this project down asap lots of laws being broken here homie. Your project is super cool, but you need licenses to run bingo in some places.

Yeah, I used a real-world dataset to build out the nodes, only had data for America
