I am currently switching over from Debian/rocky lxc containers on proxmox to declaratively creating vm via opentofu, then running nixos-anywhere and then running colmena for updates etc. works great and I should have done it sooner.
Problem Tailscale. I encrypted the authkey via agenix but the new nixos hosts can not read the file and fail to login. The file is available but I think the vms can not decrypt it. Needs further investigation
Air Tag Alternative
Hello selfhosted community, I need a privacy respecting alternative for an Apple AirTag. I recently bought my first expensive bike and i would like to know where it is, as it will be used by multiple people. I know gps service costs something and I am willing to pay for it but I do not want any location data ending up somewhere it shouldn’t. Thank you.
Could be an option
I use AI as a sort of junior developer, I know the problem domain but a bit to lazy to write all the code. I develop on a remote Linux VM with tmux, nvim and opencode. Have the ai tmux session and my development session on a different project. Make sure to have a clean git tree and then I detach from one session to the ai session and check the progress.
The ai makes mistakes so a cautious review of all the code is needed.
I mostly use Claude and I can NOT recommend any kimi k2 model. If you need something okish and cheap use open router gpt-oss 120.
AI is a power tool if you don’t know what are you doing you get burned.
Tailscale Caddy Docker
Hello, I currently run a few services on my own hardware and I came across the following problem. Most of the time I use proxmox lxc containers and raspberry pi’s to host services and everything is connected via tailscale and my setup most of the time is: on the host - tailscale with permission for caddy - caddy reverseproxy with a Tailscale domain (xyz.mydomain.ts.net [http://xyz.mydomain.ts.net]) In docker (1 service per lxc container) - tandoor Is there a way that I can create a docker compose file with Tailscale, Caddy and a service? Thank you
