  • I might be misunderstanding this concept but it seems like extra work, or a recipe for an insecure mess that could become difficult to maintain.

    I run elk stack and log basically everything which has created a centralized point for observability. This lets me granularly investigate and thereby control the state of all of my networks services.

    It’s a little ram hungry, but I’ve got some overhead.










  • You got two options. Both suck.

    1. Call support. Have fun. I’d rather rip out my eyeballs in this scenario because you’re not a paying customer. You will get the shit-tier service, will likely be hung up on, and reexplain the situation to 3+ individuals over the course of 4 hours and ultimately get nothing done.

    2. Resubscribe. Finish the job. The odds of your accounts db being wiped are kinda slim. Sucks because you do what you explicitly sought to avoid: pay Microsoft.




  • I think the bulk of users are running discarded junk and raspberry pis.

    That was me, I built a ~$5k rig and now some of what I’m doing is just nonsense of a typical self hoster, so the point is somewhat valid, but even those like me mostly started out with discarded junk and raspberry pis.

    Docker used to scare me until I tackled a project that required me to use it. Then I realized I learned it without knowing I’d learned it.

    I mean just for the love of God don’t spin up something on your company’s infrastructure that accepts file uploads.

    Just don’t.

    If you’re reading this and going “well, it’s just internal,” or “well, it doesn’t do much it just accepts this exact file type.” My god. Ask your CISA. And if they’re okay with it, cool. That’s on them.

    Unless your whole business is transferring files, don’t. And even then… Don’t.

    And if you’re still confused, the answer is to use another company’s infrastructure for this. Use Azure. Use AWS. Use Google cloud or even g suites. Don’t accept that liability. Let the trillionaires do it.
