Help managing access to multiple VPN services (Tailscale, Wireguard, Twingate)
cross-posted from: discuss.online/post/34942012
I find everyone using different services, so unsure how to best manage (and balance) concurrent access in Ubuntu/Debian to:
- Local network services
- Tailscale services from userA
- Tailscale services from userB
- Wireguard (OpenVPN also option) from userC
- Twingate from userDEach user is wanting to share different services via VPN, and pressuring any to change their production setups to a different style of VPN is not going to happen.
- Management via software
- Possibly up a routing device along the lines of OpenWrt or OpnSense.
- Could even distribute such devices between these friends.Thanks for all thoughts!
Example setup:
- Jellyfin user access from TailscaleA
- Nextcloud user access from TailscaleB
- Jellyfin user access from Wireguard
- Jellyfin user access from Twingate
- Jellyfin user access from local services
How would you manage this in a somewhat seamless manner?
I'm not sure what you'd like here. You didn't give much info.
Did you want someone to literally work out a full config for you in here? We don't know what you're even running.
Personally, I would do this in docker. That way you can have clearer separation between services and networks. But it's not a hard requirement.
I would just do it, as you wrote. For example, on the account of jellyfin server, configure the tailscaleA client, then wireguard client, etc. Set those up as separate user services/processes/system services if root permissions needed and that's it. Then on other services set the needed connections separately.
It might be handy to set up traefik, so things served via vpns can go through the same routes as local traffic, so you use the same path as your users do
When you have a service that serves something on a port, you are not limited to only one connection. It can be accessed through different clients, the only needed part is that those clients connect to their respective vpn networks and pass the traffic correctly
I don't see a need for a separate device for that routing
I never understood why people use Tailscale
I use it for the NAT busting and direct connections. This means that my devices can talk directly to each other, even when there's NAT and dynamic IPs sitting between the devices with no port forwarding. This is not possible with Wireguard alone; usually you end up with a hub and spoke network model.
As for them man-in-the-middling, the client is open source (for Android and Linux at least) and traffic is end-to-end encrypted. If you don't want to trust them with distributing the keys (completely valid concern) then it's possible to configure things such that you must sign the keys of clients yourself for your devices to trust them (see Tailnet Lock).
In my case, because I like self-hosting, I self-host an open-source coordination server called Headscale. So in at least my circumstance I really am only using my infrastructure and open-source code.
AI controls is coming to Firefox
Starting with Firefox 148, which rolls out on Feb. 24, you’ll find a new AI controls section within the desktop browser settings. It provides a single place to block current and future generative AI features in Firefox.
They actually listened to the community, thats very nice.
Claude Code is suddenly everywhere inside Microsoft
Software engineers at Microsoft are now expected to use both Claude Code and GitHub Copilot and give feedback comparing the two, I’m told. Microsoft sells GitHub Copilot as its AI coding tool of choice to its customers, but if these broad internal pilot programs are successful, then it’s possible the company could even eventually sell Claude Code directly to its cloud customers.
Guys? Are we going to have to rename Microsoft products from Copilot to Claude soon?
Microsoft Claude 365?
Claude Code is suddenly everywhere inside Microsoft
Microsoft is increasingly adopting Claude Code, despite selling its own GitHub Copilot AI tool. Microsoft’s developers are now testing out both to compare them.Tom Warren (The Verge)

Wiarton Willie predicts early spring, but Punxsutawney Phil disagrees
Wiarton Willie, along with most of his Canadian counterparts, has predicted an early spring after he did not see his shadow on Monday morning on Groundhog Day.
Groundhog Day is a long-held tradition of watching animals coming out of hibernation to predict whether there'll be an early spring or six more weeks of winter.
Every Feb. 2, groundhogs and even a crustacean emerge from their shelters to see if they see their shadows.
Fuck ICE, both the frozen water and the highschool drop outs who cannot be productive members of society.

Where I live 6 more weeks of winter is an early spring.
Danish Students Face Legal Action and Fines Over Textbook Piracy
After "awareness" campaigns that failed to move the needle for years, Denmark’s leading anti-piracy group is shifting to a more aggressive litigation strategy. The Rights Alliance confirmed it will begin filing civil lawsuits against individual students who are caught sharing even a single digital textbook. The anti-piracy group prefers not to mention the targeted platforms but says it uses undercover monitoring of private groups to gather evidence.

Less Spotify's share, and the record label's share, and the lawyer's share.....and of course they'd give the artists with the most streams a bigger share (they're the ones with the labels who get a big cut).
So about tree fiddy.

Just like the Pirate Bay they will try to find and prosecute individuals behind it and then try and force governments to block the domains. Which they did, all of those guys spent trivial prison sentences (this was early internet and in Sweden, circumstances are not the same anymore), and TPB was down for like... A year I think, before it popped right back up and is going just as strong as it ever did. Because just like these capitalist laws to protect the technofeudal class evolve to protect them, so does the methods by which creative hackers employ tech to fuck them in the ass.

According to the article, $150,000 is the maximum damages allowed per track. So $150,000/track * 86,000,000 tracks is around $13 Trillion. So they are asking for the maximum that the law allows.
They could ask for infinity billion dollars for all it matters; you can't get blood from a stone.

At this point I must cancel my Spotify subscription. Any suggestion on how to implement a somewhat automated music discovery system that can replace Spotify's "radios" and playlists?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Anna's archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata
over a massive music data scrape
So when are you going to sue AI companies?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but Anna's archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata
200gb meta, 300tb music. Just 300tb not released yet. Might be, might not.
So when are you going to sue AI companies?
I think some sue suno and settle for money. And GEMA (germany) sue openai for songtext.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but Anna’s archive is not giving you song downloads, but rather metadata
Were they not going to release the songs as well? They just started with the metadata?
ETA: Yes, this is from their blog post about it:
The data will be released in different stages on our Torrents page:[X] Metadata (Dec 2025)
[ ] Music files (releasing in order of popularity)
[ ] Additional file metadata (torrent paths and checksums)
[ ] Album art
[ ] .zstdpatch files (to reconstruct original files before we added embedded metadata)
Apparently it's legal and acceptable to demand, through a court, enough money to destroy the world economy.
Seriously, if I were the judge I'd throw out the lawsuit until they come up with a remotely realistic number. As it is, it makes the whole lawsuit look like a joke.

Wouldn't it be in the best interests of state sponsored hacking teams to hide or blame other states?
Of course. If I were leading an offencive team at CSIS, I'd do my best to procure machines and credentials in anorher country to launch the campaign from. Ideally a known adversary. That doesn't mean that country isn't executing their own attacks. In fact my charade wouldn't work if I chose a country that has no track record of attacks.
Dude this is notepad++, no one cares, we all know china Russia, employs multiple teams for hacking. But they still get caught and nothing happens, because they all will deny it.
This isn't the chinese Uber team, that plans ahead several months, this is more: oh I found exploit in notepad++, via some tool. It isn't worth the effort, because they are just looking for exploits in the wild.

Kinda sad the flagship instance is the biggest turnoff to wider adoption. Also, I gotta try / switch to Piefed.
Doing an "Orphan Black" re-watch and this scene gets me every time.
Oh, there's an "-ism"
Felix goes to a club and is disappointed to learn there's an "-ism" required to be there.
Piefed is great!
Highly recommended. Now I can donate again without feeling gross about supporting dessalines and nutomic.
Most comments from lemmy.ml range from neutral slightly below average to slightly above, but conversely after someone has blocked Lemmygrad and hexbear, the most batshit insane comments very much tend to come from there. This includes, highly ironically (rotfl), the recent statement that PieFed has a hard-coded block of lemmy.ml, which is laughable!!?!
I do not feel that I am ever missing something by personally blocking Lemmy.ml - and this is based off of months of checking, every time I notice e.g. a different comment count than what I see.
If someone enjoys reading their so-called "content", go ahead and enjoy all you like, but that's not my thing, and I am SO GLAD that I can enact my own personal defederation of it.
You are going to love PieFed, I do believe. Mainly since they are more receptive to feedback and actual code changes than Lemmy is, so your improvements could benefit the entire PieFed userbase regardless of which UI they run. They understand that sometimes no content (of the sort that just pisses people off) is better than highly negative stuff, and e.g. if you block someone then PieFed sides with the person doing the blocking rather than insisting on the rights of the person being blocked to incessantly troll you, able to send you DMs, vote on your content, reply to you, trigger notifications, etc. (some of this refers to "instance blocking", with only a subset but not none of which also applies to "user blocking").
Basically, PieFed places more control into the hands of the individual user, rather than relying upon a single source of authoritarian control (the instance admin, or to a lesser degree the mods).

Not that expensive. Still these moves without addressing the rent seeking (profit maximization) in the consoludated supply and retail chain is a band aid. Minimum wages are also woefully underadjusted but they'd only have positive effect if the grocers can't just jack up their prices to where they think the new market conditions would bear.

in reply to Avid Amoeba • • •list the hospitals and schools you would like to close to subsidize Loblaws.
Avid Amoeba
in reply to SaveTheTuaHawk • • •Zero obviously.
If we assume Loblaws gets 100% of this money and those 12M Canadians get no extra food as a result from it, then I would be 100% against this. However I bet that 12M people will get some more food, probably not the equivalent of 100% of the spend but not zero. Loblaws would get the rest. Hunger isn't lower priority than healthcare. Both are cut-to-the-bone issues and food very much affects health and healthcare. So I think this will provide needed relief in the near term. We all know what happens in the long run. It's very much not the type of policy I would do if I were PM.
Don't get me wrong, I'd prefer an Avi Lewis gov't setup a non-profit public grocer and distributor and have zero money go to Loblaws, which is why I'm getting people to vote in the NDP election. I'm just commenting on the current material reality.

in reply to slothrop • • •A rebate sounds like a positively insane idea. It's just a corporate subsidy with extra steps.
If you want to lower prices, you can't give people money to give to the oligopolies. You have to break up the oligopolies, regulate the hell out of them, and send some people to prison for price fixing.
