In-reply-to » Hey this could be good news for self-hosters and folks that want to run their own yarnd? 🤔 Vultr is offering 1 vCPU, 500MB Memory and 10GB Storage for FREE! That's right $0.00 🤣 Media

Did we just discover a way to grow the Yarn.social network? 🤣

Their response:

The bandwidth for our free instances is 2 TB of free bandwidth.

@bender@twtxt.net Is right. Apparently it’s 0 bandwidth. I’m asking them some clarifying questions:

Hi Team,

Just noticed that you offer FREE (as in $0) VM(s) on the vc2-1c-0.5gb-free
plan. however I also note that this has 0 Bandwidth.

I’m a bit confused by this. What would be the point of having a free VM if it has no Bandwidth? How is network bandwidth charged in this case?

cheers
james

@bender@twtxt.net It’s true! This is only a good thing @kat@yarn.girlonthemoon.xyz 🤣 You keep going like this with your own little community of friends, and my twtxt.net (flagship pod) will no longer be 🤣 I’ve always want to see Yarn.social grow, but grow in ways that keep to its truest sense of “decentralised”. That’s one of the reasons I built yarnd not to scale too much 🤣 My own pod has around ~18-20 active users per month (give or take) and that’s honestly enough 😅

In-reply-to » I'm usually comfortable keeping my hardship to myself, most especially AWAY from the internet; an act of kindness of sorts towards others, "Everyone's got their own problems to worry about" kind of thing.. But maaan am I starting to believe creating a twitter account would be a healthy decision 🤣🤦 Read nothin' out there, just a one way echo chamber of sorts to let that shi_ out of my chest. It seem that's what everyone else's been using it for all this time.

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Man I’m sorry to hear this. 😢 Whatever it is you’re going through, things will get better I promise you 🤗

Note for reference I was trying to write and fix this rule (fixed version below):

I’ll try to add a README for caddy-waf soon™ (going back to bed now) at least document the customizations I’ve made to this WAF (which I forked from caddy-coraza)

This is how I build my caddy:

@bender@twtxt.net AS Number:

An autonomous system (AS) is a collection of connected Internet Protocol (IP) routing prefixes under the control of one or more network operators on behalf of a single administrative entity or domain, that presents a common and clearly defined routing policy to the Internet.[1] Each AS is assigned an autonomous system number (ASN), for use in Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) routing. Autonomous System Numbers are assigned to Local Internet Registries (LIRs) and end-user organizations by their respective Regional Internet Registries (RIRs), which in turn receive blocks of ASNs for reassignment from the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA). The IANA also maintains a registry of ASNs which are reserved for private use (and should therefore not be announced to the global Internet).
