| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Yeah the overview is mostly showing the dashboard | 13:34:30 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | TIL https://youtu.be/I2_3NE0ouJw | 13:34:47 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | * TIL systemd.network.networks.<name>.cakeConfig | 13:34:53 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | * TIL systemd.network.networks.<name>.cakeConfig | 13:34:56 |
 hexa | yeah, that | 13:34:59 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | IDK what CAKE is tho | 13:35:00 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I know it's a lie, but that is all | 13:35:17 |
| hexa | cake is a queueing discipline for tc | 13:35:45 |
| hexa | it can sort traffic into various buckets and provide quality of service | 13:36:09 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | why is it called CAKE | 13:36:10 |
| hexa | probably because they thought it was funny | 13:36:30 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I had a mini mid-life crisis the other day trying to reverse proxy everything | 13:36:38 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | then I realised this isn't possible | 13:36:41 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | educate me why I should not be worried about letting everyone know my IP | 13:36:57 |
 n4ch723hr3r | why not? | 13:37:15 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Take icecast for example, it cannot be reverse proxied effectively without great effort | 13:37:31 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | it is simply not designed to be | 13:37:35 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | therefore, the simplest, easiest and most effective setup, is to not | 13:37:43 |
| n4ch723hr3r | do you want your icecast instance to be public? | 13:38:22 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Yeah | 13:38:29 |
| n4ch723hr3r | otherwise you could just use tailscale or nebula or something like that | 13:38:55 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I have a nice connection somewhere else that I would rather have used, but it's too complicated to proxy, so I figure it's best just to not give a fsck and just put my public IP into DNS | 13:38:57 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | Cloudflare has created a mind virus that encourages people to think they can hide everything | 13:39:10 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | I don't think this is possible or a healthy mindest on the internet, anymore | 13:39:17 |
| n4ch723hr3r | you could also host it over tor or i2p xD | 13:39:32 |
| n4ch723hr3r | thats public as well | 13:39:43 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | True, but not suitable for broadcast | 13:39:50 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | At that point, it's better to use peertube or some other technology that is more analogous to a real broadcast | 13:40:04 |
| matthewcroughan - nix.zone | instead of the broadcast emulation that is icecast | 13:40:09 |
