I miss that too, but sadly there is no easy equivalent. You just have to make local DNS your friend. I’m in the process of going ipv6-only on my home LAN (because I’m a tech nerd). I enable avahi/bonjour on everything that supports it, then I simply connect to <hostname>.local.

Any servers that require a static v6 IP address get something like <prefix>::BABE:CAFE:1 mostly just as a way to remind myself that the address is static and not allocated by SLAAC.

Excellent description, but one point of note; IPv6 has been around for 27 years now, has been a fully functional draft standard for 24 years, and a full-on Internet Standard since 2017. The switch to it and away from IPv4 is long overdue.

Those barbies in the background give the whole thing an oddly surreal vibe…

A bunch of old laptops running Ubuntu Server and docker-compose. Laptops are great; built in screen, keyboard, and UPS (battery), and more than capable of handling the kind of light workloads I run.

Unions have a phrase for that. It’s called “work to rule”.

Is it possible to tag a whole magazine (or lemmy community) as NSFW? That seems like a good mechanism to have. Relying on people to tag individual posts is kinda like expecting everyone to sort their recycling — a certain percentage are going to screw it up.
