My public VPS is now only accessible via SSH from my tailnet. One more possible attack vector less.
In Alpine Linux I switched to the linux-lts kernel, installed Tailscale from the edge-community repository via repository pinning, removed the rule to allow SSH from the Hetzner cloud firewall and finally set the Tailscale ACLs to not allow access to my other Tailscale devices from the VPS.
Finally sleeping better 😴

I have a very light sleep. The first brightness in the morning makes me wake up, noise from the neighbors in the evening does not let me fall asleep. No matter how late or early I go to bed, no matter how little I slept in total.

I recently moved my emails to Purelymail. And since I also used the contacts and calendar synchronization feature of my previous email provider, I also transferred the contacts and calendar entries to Purelymail via WebDAV using WinSCP.

My blog(s) just got a new feature: A link to the current day archive (🇩🇪). There it is possible to see posts on today’s date in earlier years. Even more features are linked on my More (🇩🇪) page, by the way.
Hopefully OneUI 4 will extend the life of my smartphone

Last year I wrote about how I check the battery health of my smartphone. The app I used for that shows a notification when a certain charge level is reached that you can unplug the smartphone so it doesn’t charge to 100%.

Let’s see whether the DSL provider change goes smoothly tonight / tomorrow morning, or if I have to use my mobile hotspot tomorrow.
Update: Everything works fine.
