Global South cities lack cooling green spaces
  • Yeah, I hate this. I remember when I was a kid (almost two decades ago), there used to be giant trees all over the city. Now, when you look out the window, it's just an endless sea of grey.

  • Emacs Face Line Spacing / Margin / Height

    I've been theming emacs, trying to get it to look just right, but the lack of a per face line spacing is making it kind of difficult. I've tried to use :box as a hack to add invisible spacing, but that started to look weird when the region is highlighted. Does anyone know why there doesn't seem to be much interest or discussion on this topic? I'd love to be able to just add a top or bottom margin to headings like in css.

    Help with IPv6
  • If it's any use, here are the WAN IPv6 options (auto, manual, or IPv6CP Extension) for the ZTE-ZXHN-F670, it's set to auto right now:

    And these are the available LAN settings:

  • I'm located in Vietnam; the ISP is Viettel (probably not useful information, but hey, why not).

    Is it possible to send the hint from OPNsense itself? I mentioned in the original post that OPNsense is behind the ISP router (ZTE-ZXHN-F670) which I kind of don't want to touch due to the fact that the terminology is quite different and that the ISP people come over to run tests on it whenever there are service issues. Either way, I've already tried to search through the settings and couldn't find any options for setting the prefix hint on the WAN side. I'm open to digging though those settings again if you're familiar with the router.

  • Help with IPv6
  • I'll try this when I get a chance. Off the top of my head, why did you set the prefix to 0x1? I was under the impression that it only needs to be set if there are multiple vlans and what are your rules for the WAN side of the firewall? My LAN interface is only getting an LLA so maybe it's being blocked from communicating with the ISP router.

  • Help with IPv6
  • I did forget to mention that. The IP addresses of the devices on the LAN do not share the same first half of the address as the IP on the ISP router. I have the OPNsense LAN set to track WAN interface, but the DHCP server is stuck saying "No available address range for configured interface subnet size.". I also noticed that my WAN for OPNsense has a global routable IP starting with 2402 as well as a LLA starting with fe80 but my LAN only has a LLA.

    Which routes and firewall rules should I be checking?

  • Help with IPv6

    My ISP recently made IPv6 available and I'm trying to figure out how to make it work with my network. The setup I have is an OPNsense box connected to my ISP's router and I'm using it to isolate my homelab from the rest of the network. However, the machines on my OPNsense LAN aren't being assigned IPv6 addresses that allow them to connect to the internet.

    I can ping IPv6 sites from my OPNsense box and I see that it's being assigned a /64 prefix from the ISP router. If I use my laptop to connect to my ISP's router, I can visit IPv6 sites just fine as well. My devices in the OPNsense LAN also have IPv6 addresses and can ping each other using IPv6 but not the internet.

    Are there special settings that I need to set for OPNsense to make this setup work? I've tried reading up on the different modes like SLAAC but I'm not quite grasping the concepts.

    Silverblue vs uBlue
  • One thing you can check out is quadlet, which is podman containers running as systemd services. You just basically put the .container files in the right directory and sytemd will pick them up and run them for you. I have syncthing and zerotier running like this.

    I don't really think you need to layer anything unless you're doing virtualization, but I haven't really looked into that yet.

  • Best way to have file sync on a local network?
  • I ultimately did go with Syncthing and uploading my files encrypted to Google Drive for backup. It's been working great for months. I've also been using Zeroteir to make this work with my laptop too while on the go.

  • Best way to have file sync on a local network?
  • Duplicati looks very promising, but from a cursory glance it's more for backups? Since the files are split into chunks, I would still need to use a NAS or local cloud storage and have Duplicati do the final upload to GDrive.

  • Best way to have file sync on a local network?

    So I have a NUC with Proxmox as the primary OS and OPNsense in a VM for my home network. I've been trying to move away from Google services but would still like to use them as a back up solution. Would it make sense to use Nextcloud in a VM as a replacement and use Rclone to encrypt and backup my files to Google Drive? Or should I use a NAS OS like Open Media Vault instead?

    I'll also mention that I have an empty SSD that I can passthrough and that my primary draw to Nextcloud is that they have a Windows desktop syncing app like Google Drive does which makes things familiar and convenient. I don't plan on having my Nextcloud instance exposed to the web but might setup a Wireguard tunnel into the local network in the future.
