I am using Let’s Encrypt. Cloudflare is used for DNS validation.

It is that easy, like you said. And with Cloudflare and Caddy you can get TLS for your internal VPN hosts. I love that.

My Vaultwarden is behind a private VPN, but I’ll still update today. Thanks.

I’ve been doing home networking for many years now and the public Domain + Cloudflare DNS + Let’s Encrypt is the easiest it’s ever been.

There is really no reason to use self-signed anymore. I use Let’s Encrypt even for 10.0.0.0/8 addresses.

It’s a domain with hosts that all resolve to private IP addresses. I don’t care if someone manages to see hosts like vaultwarden, cloud, docs or photos through enumeration if they all resolve to 10.0.0.0/8 addresses. Setting up a private resolver and private PKI is just too much of a bother.

I found options like .local and now .internal way too long for my private stuff. So I managed to get a two-letter domain from some obscure TLD and with Cloudflare as DNS I can use Caddy to get Let’s Encrypt certs for hosts that resolve to 10.0.0.0/8 IPs. Caddy has plugins for other DNS providers, if you don’t want to go with Cloudflare.

I do this. I use Cloudflare as my DNS and Caddy as my server. With the Cloudflare plugin Caddy gets TLS certs even for 10/8 addresses.

I wrote elsewhere that based on everything I read about gender the logical conclusion is that there are only two genders. Male and political.

Everything I’ve read and heard on the topic of gender has led me to the conclusion that there are only two genders. Male and political.

I tried a few alternatives, but the Goodreads import wasn’t working well for any of them and I miss the two people who have very similar taste to my own. Sadly I don’t know them, we just connected over Reddit at some point and it feels weird asking them to migrate.

But that’s just the Mi box with a different name…

I mean, that only says something about the money making part and not the pure usability. For many people the commercial options are a gimmick, sure. But are these options, with a clear focus on milking the customers for money, really the ultimate state for voice assistants? I’d argue they are not. There is a space for free voice assistants that let users control their data and that still provide a value. Beyond users with disabilities that make it hard to impossible to use computers, voice assistants won’t ever do something you cannot do with a computer (which includes smartphones). If that makes you consider them a gimmick then I don’t have an argument. But I think it is nice and convenient to be able to use a computer with your voice while doing something else.

I mean, that’s like your personal opinion and not some objective fact.

I have no numbers, but with the rise in bad actors I assume that at least the larger hosts who have their own data centers do it.

IP spoofing on the internet won’t get you very far. So, no, this won’t work. I don’t even see a scenario where this would make sense.

Cool, I’ll give those a try!

Ah, I looked at Tortoise, but I do not have an nVidia GPU, so I couldn’t try it. Festival I tried and the results were bad. Not so much for the voice, but for intonation and pronunciation.

Yes, but if you compare it to https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech?hl=en (scroll down a bit and you can try it) and the Neural2 model, it sounds like shit. I mean, it’s great to see that there are efforts, but it just pales in comparison.
