  • In general, this is of course 100% based on speculation, but I assume that you can connect to a VPN but you cannot access any resource inside the local network. Just because this is the most basic mistake that beginners usually make. And it’s related to the fact that your pi is not your default gateway. To solve this, you need to enable SNAT on the local Pi interface. There are many guides on the Internet on how to do this.

    P.S. Unfortunately, I have a poor telepathy skill, so it would be good to get a little more background. At least an accurate description of the problem. =)




  • Google and Reddit deal, it’s not like they are going to promote alternatives forums that much

    There is more than one search engine in the sea.

    And that would be an argument if it weren’t for a completely broken CEO headers in the web interface. I can’t attach a screenshot because I changed the web in my copy to the Photon. In general, there are tons of SEO mistakes. At least according to Yandex Webmaster page.

    UPD: for example api don’t have robots.txt method. As result I generate new pages lists for best search optimization with self written script…



  • The industry has not acquired a single standard by now. In this regard, there are many different devices on different protocols. Many manufacturers generally link their devices only to their own cloud.

    Of the popular open standards, I would recommend zigbee. But in order for the device to be correctly identified, its sensors and parameters must be supported by the server. Zigbee2MQTT is a good choice. I use it myself. But the compatibility is not complete and you need to check the support on the developer’s website ( https://www.zigbee2mqtt.io/supported-devices/ ) or buy one device for the test.

    I recommend Tuya company. I have about 12 switches from this company and they work pretty well with zigbee2mqtt.

    The complete scheme is as follows: zigbee device <-> radio channel <-> zigbee coordimator <-> zigbee2mqtt <-> mqtt <-> homeassistant. For connect devices to zigbee2mqtt you need coordinator. SONOFF ZBDongle-E for example. Add zigbee routers if you have big square. If you server not in good place you can use wifi2zigbee coordinator. HamGeek poe zigbee 3.0 for example.






  • the idea is that: all your applications work under the same user. or at least under the same group. because this is exactly how the differentiation of rights is applied.

    A good plan is to create some kind of user in all three containers and run qbittorrent, samba and the third application under it.

    A bad plan is to run everything under a random user with 777 rights, but this is a really bad plan.

    Create a user in all three containers and work under it. That is not hard. Run qbittorent with that user. Config will be there: /home/user/.config . Then set that user for samba. I don’t know third app , but I think you can find how change user in manual.



  • I think that in order to solve such a question, we first need to consider something else. Why, if votes are so important to you, can’t you just create a bunch of accounts and vote honestly on any server?

    As soon as we are really sure that 1 person is 1 vote, and not 10, 100, 10000 or any other number, then it is already possible to build trust checks between servers. Although it seems that this has not been solved even by large social networks.

    The answer to your question in general is this: store the votes by servers and then double-check the result randomly.

    S returns: 50 votes for a post from server A, 30 for a post from server B, 10 for a post from server C, etc. Then you can randomly check on these servers whether the amount is correct. However, there is no way to check the voices of server S, so they either have to be thrown out or still trust the server at its word. It is possible to fully verify server S only if registration on all servers goes through a trusted intermediary.
