requiem.<p><strong>A Self-hosted, BSD-native Gemini Protocol Server Stack</strong></p> <p>For those who are adventurous enough to explore the non-http corners of the Internet, the Gemini protocol is a delightful experience to use. It has been around a number of years, making the biggest bang around the time when discontent with the web’s general demise started to reach current heights (so maybe around 2022).</p> <p>My “capsule”, Vigilia, is self-hosted, and has been since its inception.

deliverator<p>I have an older nest 2nd Gen thermostat that's going EOL (won't work remotely anymore). Remote access is a handy feature I'd like to keep.</p><p>I don't mind having to use VPN ( <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/tailscale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tailscale</span></a> ftw here), but it seems like the non cloud integrated options are zigbee or z wave, which involve getting a 'hub' and probably venturing down the <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/homeassistant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>homeassistant</span></a> rabbit hole.</p><p>Got an offer from borg aka Google for a decent rebate on nest 4th Gen.</p><p>So do I inflict (more) home IT tomfoolery on myself and family?

In my network I run a few services, some of them are on tailnet, some of them aren't. My clients are mostly on tailnet, but some aren't. I don't have DNS server for local name resolution - I just use <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/headscale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>headscale</span></a> DNS extra records to point clients to most important services. </p><p>Now, I want <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/pihole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pihole</span></a>. How to make it available for both Tailscale and non-tailscale clients? Am I reading correctly that I'll need another DNS server to resolve local names?</p>
