Theres no millions to message though. Some of the accounts are the same people, just jumping servers to fine one that works for them.

Could be propaganda as well - why not scare the monkeys with the bad Chinese? Without ESPs the market is so much easier to control.

Note:I use both the ES8266ex and different ESP32s in my projects.

No - i would advocate for not using docker if I need a network interface. But thats my opinion, and others will have a different one.

You can use macvlan networking, and if you need host<->container communication you give your host a macvlan interface instead or in addition to the root nic. Macvlan works “on top of” an existing interface, so theres no routing locally between the underlying nic and the macvlan nics.

If the host have several nic’s you can pass one through to a given container

Seems to work fine for those you listed. They wanted people to use their services directly and that’s what they get. It was never about making money off the api, it was about limiting api usage

There are other solutions than docker for that use-case that I think are better fits. It probably works fine, but for me other drivers including host mode and ipvlan seems to have been introduced to solve the wrong thing. Like how it needs privilege for them to work and how it exposes the containers network interface. For me it kinda breaks parts of why i would use docker.

Its my personal opinion and how i like to work.

You could probably make your setup work but it seems too complicated for me when you introduce a bridge as the root interface. Maybe with macvlan adapters on the host instead or in addition.

Esp-home also works with the older esp-01 - it was released as a wifi module so there are only two gpio’s, but thats enough for a lot of home automation stuff.

Here’s one i have connected to HA, where HA uses rest-api to capture some data from a game called tacticus, and it shows my available tokens for guild raid and arena

Heres the top google link i found: https://randomnerdtutorials.com/how-to-flash-a-custom-firmware-to-sonoff/

Esp-home is available as a HA addin, docs here: https://esphome.io/

Too much fanfare and too little real info shared to be of any value. Sounds more like an ad than infosec

You can already reflash a lot of devices for this purpose. And you could use esp-home to customise once reflashed

I dont get it - are you trying to mimic vm’s with you docker containers? docker works great using the normal way of exposing ports from the internal docker net through the host. Making technology work in ways it wasnt designed for usually gives you a hard to maintain setup

You have a mighty big hand if you reach l and a with the same one

I must have been doing websites wrong for decades by not forwarding through a reverse proxy. I admit a good one like caddy makes tls easy, but unless you have several backends for one site theres no need. The reverse proxy part of load balancer is very similar to a port forward, but on layer 7 instead of 3 or 4

There are other things to consider as well. Nfsv3 is good for large sequential reads/writes. There are no multichannel in nfs3 and no caching , and you should adapt technology to the use-case. For vm storage nfs sucks while for movie storage it works great.

For general file storage I would pick smbv3 for speed and ease of user/security

Multicast DNS uses multicasting (surprise!) so keep your devices on the same network and it just works. Docker is not very multicast friendly but lxc or a vm should have no issues.

If you really want an accurate test go for a mensa test. But you should probaby familiarise yourself on what the test can measure. And to put this into a work context is mostly useless. You do not need 140 iq to be a lawyer. You do not need 120 iq to write code. You do not need 100 iq to do investment banking.
