Cyberdeck Cyberwhat Selfhosted VPN networks and is Wireguard Hard

Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom,

Linux prepper.

Welcome back to Linux Prepper.

I'm trying things a little different today.

I decided to try recording outside for a change.

So you may hear the sounds of nature

or a squeaky chair or a car driving by or a bird or whatever,

but we'll give it a go.

So yeah, welcome back to episode 13

of the Linux Prepper podcast. Linux Prepper, of course, is a self-hosted show about us trying to do everything we can

ourselves using fully open source hardware and software.

It's all about just trying it.

And if we fail, it's okay.

No judgment.

It's just about seeing how far we can go.

Also want to take a quick moment to thank my sponsor.

My sponsor for the show is, of course, Ameradroid.

That's Ameradroid.com, the US-based distributor

of single-board computers and things for home automation.

I would say most famously, hard kernel

and their O-Droid series.

But I noticed that they've also started offering

third-reality devices.

They're like Zigbee matter controllers.

They have a power management switch,

which I use all the time.

I've been buying third reality stuff

over a period of years from various places,

but I'm happy to see them selling third reality.

I've never had a problem with them,

but they have basically a wall plug,

which you can then control over Zigbee.

But the thing I like about the wall plug

is it still has a physical button on it

to turn it on and off.

And it has a little ring light

so you can see if it's on or off.

And I use those all the time

just for turning off different devices in my home.

So I can definitely recommend them.

It's like 15 bucks.

And yeah, I have about a dozen.

So I definitely like them.

Been running them for probably three years.

But I'll leave a link for Maradroid and their third reality device. They have tons of customer

service options and shipping options all over the world. It's much easier than shipping

directly overseas. So check out Maradroid.com and thank you to them for sponsoring the

next Prepper podcast. That said, let's give a quick state of the podcast. It was recently

brought to my attention that the podcasting 2.0 support wasn't there for

this show.

So I have now put up my own self-hosted Albie Hub node.

That is a self-hosted lightning node that allows people to send lightning donations to

the show.

So that is now working.

And I want to thank the people who sent me in little messages and donations through podcasting 2.0, just in the last couple days of it running. I appreciate that a lot.

And thanks for telling me that it wasn't running properly. It's all good to go now. As part of that too, I have started having a presence on noster. Noster is a decentralized tool that also uses lightning nodes to basically

allow people to run their own relays of messages between each other and kind of have this,

you know, fully open source decentralized tool built around cryptocurrency. Whether that's something that interests you or not is, I don't know, but I mean, I can do it,

so I might as well try it. I think it's, you know, it's worth at least checking out. So it's there.

And feel free to interact me on it and kind of continue to see how it goes. If you're curious

about Noster and you want to try it, I recommend looking at the web

client tool called iris.2.

I'll put a link to it in the show notes, but you can create an account on iris.2.

You can also plug that account into your own node wallet that you run yourself using something

like Albiehub, which is what I'm running.

I'll put a link to that in the show notes as well.

And you're welcome to get yourself set up on an AlbiHub node.

The good news is it's easy to run on a Raspberry Pi-styled

device or in Docker or similar.

And you can just basically spin it up wherever you prefer

to run it, and you don't need to do any kind of port forwarding

or anything, which is nice.

So nothing stops you from accessing it over a VPN.

And you'll be able to make the transaction data you need

without having to actually expose anything

to the broader internet.

The only caveat of running your own node,

if this does interest you,

is you'll need to keep it online.

So if you're running on a Pi and it goes offline,

it's not gonna work.

So that's just is what it is,

but self-hosting is self- to work. So that's just is what it is. But you know,

self-hosting is self-hosting. So if that interests you, I'll leave a link for Albie Hub,

but so far so good. It's worked fine. Coming up, I will be at Segal. That's going to be

November 7th and 8th. I'll be tabling for this show. And I have some printed goodies that I'll be offering

there. This includes buttons and shirts and some other fun

things I had collaged a little display that I'll be having

there. And if you want to come and see it in person, you can

also be giving a presentation as part of Seagull. This is the

Seattle GNU Linux conference on all things fully open source

at the University

of Washington on November 7th at 5pm and I'll be giving a presentation on how I make physical

theater performances using open source tooling.

And I think it'll be really fun to show people things like I'm guessing I'll probably be

presenting a laser cut shadow puppetry that I put together as well as

Pantomime variations of the same kind of thing that I've done when I didn't have access to the shadow puppets

I just use my body and

Other iterations of the same kind of things

So I think it'll be a very exciting and fun and totally unique

Presentation it'll be the first time I've given

presentation about my theater shows time I've given presentation

about my theater shows, which I've been making for,

I don't know, a decade plus and touring.

So yeah, you can look forward to that.

I'll leave a link to the event and the show notes.

I will not be streaming it online.

This is my original material that I make

and it's, I don't wanna present it in any way

that I don't feel it is good enough. And so live stream, I don't want to present it in any way that I don't feel it is good

enough. And so live stream, I don't trust, which means it's going to be in person only.

Sorry about that. But you'll have to be there in person if you want to see it. But it'll

be the first time I've given this sort of presentation about the work. And so I'm excited

about that. But that'll be fun. That's coming up. And this issue will be talking about Cyber Decks and the new PI 500+

in addition to the previous iterations and kind of asking like,

"Who are these things for?"

And, uh, because I don't know.

But I think it's interesting.

I also wanted to take a moment to shout out some self-hosted tools

that I think are interesting for

people wanting to run their own VPN because it raises a question in my mind. Let's talk about

self-hosted tooling for a second specifically to access your own local services. So things like

the aforementioned Albi Hub. If you're going to run your own note of something and access it over a VPN.

Is WireGuard actually hard to use?

This is an open question. I want people to write into the show,

tell me, is WireGuard hard to use?

And I don't know, maybe, you know,

our experiences are colored or whatever,

I'm sure they are, but it's like,

'cause you use something you get used to it

and it's like not a big deal, you know?

You're just like, yeah, this is great.

But is WireGuard hard?

Like, for real?

When you use it, or you're like, oh, this is so hard.

Yeah, let me know.

Because there's all these spin-offs, right?

These authentication services built on top of WireGuard,

and I wanted to give a shout out to some

specific ones that are self-hosted.

And let me start by going, let's see, we'll start with NetBird.

So what is NetBird?

They describe themselves as NetBird allows you to connect your devices into a secure,

wire guard based overlay network with single sign on multi-factor authentication and granular

access control.

So you can actually use Netbird through them, just as you would, tail scale, it's like exact

same kind of thing for a hundred devices or whatever.

It's a hosted service, but they also allow you to self-host every aspect of Netbird.

So if you want, you can transition from hosted to self-hosted or whatever.

And it's easy to check out. And the fact that it's entirely self-hostable by default in every

aspect is very appealing to me. So I want to shout it out on the show. Similar to in that vein

is head scale. Head scale. What is head scale? That main objective of head scale is to provide

a corrected implementation of the tail scale protocol

and control server for hobbyists and self-hosters

to run themselves.

This acts as a replacement for the tail scale

listening servers.

It allows you to continue using your existing client

applications from tail scale.

And it also adds things like funnel functionality

and beta access.

So what is a funnel?

Well, a funnel in this case is exposing a local resource

to the internet through a unique URL.

And the funnel is allowing you to share access

to the resource, right?

That would otherwise be in your cryptid tunnel

to the broader internet.

So it's a way to give Joe Schmell access to a specific service.

And head scale supports this in a beta level.

So that's one thing to keep in mind is it supports it, but it's kind of still in development.

But the main caveat of head scale is that it does not include a web UI by default.

Now I'm going to leave a link to their actual list of various web UI implementations.

And so you can add one.

I think they assume you're going to be doing this in a Docker compose container.

But head scale does not include a UI.

So maybe some people think this is a good thing because then you don't have the ability

to jump in on somebody's web UI.

But if you're expecting to have that functionality, which I think people are

if they're coming from tail scale, um, something to be aware of.

So yeah, head scale project, you can check out.

And I want to offer one more suggestion, which I find very interesting.

And this one is called pangolin.

So what is Pangolin?

Well, Pangolin is a little bit of a different take.

It's a self-hosted, tunneled reverse proxy server

with identity and content-aware access control.

It's designed to expose and protect applications

running anywhere through WireGuard.

Penguin acts as a central hub and connects isolated networks,

even those behind firewalls through encrypted tunnels.

So allowing you to access remote services

that opening ports or requiring any specific VPN even.

So what you have is you have basically

traffic reverse proxy with single sign-on and wire guard.

And it's designed to be self-hosted.

So you have the same funnel functionality,

I believe CloudFlare calls it tunnels,

where you are exposing a service.

And in this case,

Penguin offers you to do this with a pin code,

a temporary expiring link, or a password link

that can be sent

to others so they can access services.

And it's designed to be drop dead easy.

All these services are designed to be ones you can spin up and use easily.

But I like the fact that Penguin is expressly encouraging people to install their tooling

on the cheapest, possible VPS.

They recommend RACNARD, which is a VPS service

that I've personally been playing with

over the last couple years.

And I recommend Rachnerd.

I'll leave a referral link.

I have no problem with them.

I found them through Low End Box

and they're a well-received company.

They have rock bottom pricing.

But if you use the referral link,

just click reveal deals.

You'll see it right there. And you'll see VPS annual subscriptions and they start at $11.

For some reason their pricing has actually gone down from when I did it a couple of years ago.

So pretty cool. Main limitation is they're in fewer geographical areas. So Los Angeles and Jose Seattle, Chicago, Dallas, New York,

Ashburn, and then they have Toronto, Canada and Strasbourg,

France. And they described their Los Angeles DCO2 as being

specifically designed for use by people in Asia.

So Rachnerd is, is all around good.

I mean, it's like a super duper cheap deal. Rachnerd is all around good.

It's like a super duper cheap deal

and you can just buy the cheapest one for 11 bucks

or the second cheapest for 17 bucks

and basically you get like a gigabyte,

two gigabytes of RAM, a couple terabytes of traffic

which is plenty because all you're doing

is you're using one of these self-hosted VPN overlay services to add that

authentication layer to your VPN services. So it's not really doing anything other than

giving you that authentication. But yeah, net bird, head scale, pangolin, I especially

think pangolin's interesting. I like, I like all of them. I like the design of trying to add support for single sign on

and multi-factor authentication, especially from other tools,

like a Thalia key cloak.

So check out all these tools, links in the show notes.

But yeah, and feel free to reach out to the show and tell me,

"Is WireGuard hard to use?"

I don't know. And if it is hard to use,

are you doing something complicated with it? Because, uh, yeah, right into the show and tell us.

Some of you, of course, have listened to the show because you were assuming that you were

going to get the second part of the next cloud interview with Marcel and Tobias.

I'm putting that off for an episode just because I'm a little bit small to work.

But as an in-between,

I would like to give a self-hosted recommendation

for when your next cloud's not available.

So say your next cloud server goes offline

and you need to share files between a couple computers,

a couple devices,

then you can use Sync Thing.

That's right. Sync thing.

What is Sync thing?

Sync thing is a peer-to-peer file synchronization utility designed to sync files between devices on your local network or between remote devices over the internet.

It's equally usable on your local network or through VPN, whatever.

Runs on Windows, Mac OS, Linux Android, iOS, wherever.

It is free, open source software, and it is written in Go.

Sync thing is a fantastic tool.

I've been using it lately for doing audio recording between multiple computers.

Honestly, I use a pretty limited next cloud myself, my server.

I keep it small in size because I don't want to be syn sinking a lot of stuff to my phone and that includes these audio recordings.

So what I decided the last couple of episodes, like the big interview, is I did all my editing through sync thing.

All you have to do is install a client on computer A, install it on computer V, and then when you start sync thing,

it will basically pop open a little web UI interface on the local

machine and you just tell it what other computer to look for. And it can be on a network of VPN

doesn't matter. Sync Thing doesn't care. It'll connect to it. And then you can sync your files

back and forth. You can send by directional. You can send one way only. You can send to an

encrypted destination. It has all kinds of useful functionality as

a syncing tool that go beyond say next cloud. Obviously it's just for syncing, it's not

for anything else. But for a basic sync tool, syncing works awesome. And since you can run

it on your devices, you do not need a server. And any server of Sink thing can be hosted yourself.

So I've had a lot of happiness with Sink thing, works really well.

I want to encourage people who think, "Hmm, maybe I do want Sink thing, like I don't need

a big server, but I would like a web interface."

Well, I have a couple recommendations for that.

One is the project file browser.

It's been around a long time.

Gives you a nice little friendly web UI.

The other is file stash.

File stash is really cool.

They just added ARM support for Pi type devices.

File stash is literally a web client interface

that it describes themselves as being like Dropbox.

The person literally designed it

because they were frustrated with Next Club. So file stash just acts as the web client. It supports SFTP, S3, FTP, WebDav, Git,

mini L, LDAP, CalDav, Cardab, SQL, backblaze, whatever, NFS, Google Drive, all the stuff.

And it's fast, man, it's just designed to be as fast as possible. And it works well, it's coded in Go.

So if you just want to throw a web UI on something,

FileStache is a good choice.

Also, SFTP Go recommended it previously on the show.

I used it, liked it, worked well.

All of these are great tools.

Obviously, we're just talking about sync thing in terms of sharing files between computers.

But if that's your only goal and you're sharing large amounts of files, it does the job exactly as you would expect.

So I can recommend that to anyone needing basic file sharing services, even as a backup to NextCloud itself.

If you're more of just a home enthusiast self-hostor on a

few machines or whatever, seeing things got you covered, check it out, link in the show notes.

Please do look forward to the rest of the NextCloud interview with Marcel and Tobias

coming up. You can listen to the last episode to hear Tobias talk about NextCloud atomic and

immutable take on NextCloud Py, which is in development

currently.

Ways to support the podcast.

The number one way you can support this podcast is to share it with other people.

This is a really small show.

So if you're listening to it, congratulations.

You're one of the few.

If you want to share this with other people, I would really appreciate it.

I need to do a better job of sending things to social media because I'm effectively not. But I just want to focus

on the project side of things and making the show as well as I can.

So if you want to help me with sharing this show with others, I'd really

appreciate it to whatever social networks you're on. That would be awesome.

I'm also still giving a Steam key giveaway through the end of the month.

So if you want to leave a review for the podcast on whatever podcast host you have,

it could be, you know, the Apple podcasts or podcast index or whatever.

You can just drop me a link. I'll, I'll give you the rule link.

But it's basically just don't leave one word answer, you know, like cool or something.

I just ask you right, whatever you think about the show, it could be a sentence, but just be honest, I don't care what you write doesn't have to be positive or

negative, but just post something and it would really help with visibility for the show. That

will be awesome and it'll put you in a steam key drawing. So that would be great. You can also send

me donations directly on PayPal. I'll have a PayPal link and thank you to people who do that.

directly on PayPal. I'll have a PayPal link and thank you to people who do that.

Or you can also now send me donations on

Noster or as podcasting 2.0, let me donation.

I'll have a link for that as well.

And thank you to the people doing that.

So yeah, those are all ways to support me.

And thank you so much for listening.

Really appreciate it.

Now I'd like to do a little section I call are you into cyber decks, bro? What's a cyber deck?

Well cyber deck is a portable computer device

It's associated with the cyberpunk genre of like the 80s

complete runner times

It's basically a terminal like computer that hackers or netrunners or whatever would use to access other networks,

which is really what we do today with the average computer, right? You're just accessing some

other cloud computer, whatever. So cyberdex are still a thing. It's basically some kind

of physical keyboard interface that then also has a touchscreen. So it's basically a modern

cell phone equivalent. But there's different iterations of cyber decks. And one that jumped out at me and I looked them up

recently is Cyberdoor 2064. It looks like a sort of Palm Pilot blackberry device. It's

tiny. And you can 3D print it yourself using a Pi zero and a Pi Pico, and a little screen and stuff, and it just has like a rotary knob,

and it's cute.

So that's the Cyberdoor 2064, little tiny handheld Cyber Deck.

Or people are using the new Raspberry Pi keyboard devices for Cyber Deck type purposes.

And that was what I kind of wanted to talk about was there was a recently a new version of the Raspberry Pi keyboard released the 500 plus. So I thought maybe let's talk

a little bit through the history of these devices and kind of understand a little bit

more of who therefore. So first we have the Pi 400, which is still for sale. I looked

it up. It costs $66 US, another $20

to add the accessories, power supply, mouse,

things like this, SD card.

So all of these keyboards have an awkward GPIO access

in the back, right?

It's basically you're taking a Pi,

so in this case the Pi 4,

and you're actually building it into a keyboard.

And I'm not talking about the compute module version

of the Pi or, no, they actually took the device,

rebuilt it so that the keyboard itself

is also inside this giant aluminum spreader,

which greatly improved thermal performance from the Pi 4,

which kind of had really bad,

really bad power, Oh my gosh.

The Pi 4 was not known for having excellent thermal performance.

So the Pi 400 helped correct this just by the sake of having this large

thermal plate, right, to help dissipate the heat definitely is an improvement.

But you do lose a couple of things.

You lose one USB

port so it has two USB 3 and one USB 2 instead of having two of each. You also

lose a dedicated camera port, you lose the dedicated touchscreen port and you

have some just you know limitations in the design. So pi 400. It's nice. 4 gigabytes of RAM in 2025 now, of course, is not good

because I think it kind of ideas you'd write plug in a HDMI display or something, use it

as an actual computer. I would say 4 gigabytes of RAM isn't really even cutting it to run

a web browser. So, but obviously it does work and it can be used as a

Bluetooth keyboard and I think most interestingly you can actually use the Pi 400 itself as a

keyboard and I'm going to link Pi 400 KB but it actually makes the Pi 400 get treated as a generic

USB keyboard device. I mean if you're going to have a keyboard computer, why not use it as your keyboard?

So keep in mind the Pi 400 and 500 have just like that.

Chicklet clicky keyboard kind of design, right?

Which I personally don't like, but plenty of people find them fine.

So I think it's kind of cool to use this as a keyboard.

But do keep in mind if you do want to to use this as a keyboard. But do keep in mind, if you do

want to use this thing as a keyboard, you will need probably a USB-C splitter, I'll link to one

in the show notes. But the reason for that is because you want to be able to plug in the USB

from your existing computer for the keyboard. But also it's requiring power, it normally thinks

it's getting power from that USB port. So you need a USB-C splitter to get the power from your regular power supply while the USB

Connection is also happening to your computer from the Pi keyboard

right I

Think there was also interesting project called orthopi to convert the Pi 400 into a mechanical keyboard

using a Gerberboard and actually a rotary encoder

and getting the board the Gerber printed is about 20 bucks. It does double the height of the keyboard

though you're basically laying a PCB sandwich on top of the existing aluminum plate and Pi so it

becomes taller you know once you add in the mechanical chicklet keys, right? And I just wonder how comfortable is this thing to type on? How comfortable is it in the chicklet keys?

How comfortable is mechanical? I don't know. I haven't been able to use one.

I also noticed the Gerber has kind of disappeared from the way back machine. I'll drop a link though and

things interesting

interesting

project and

adding to the Pi 400 on the display side of things, you actually

have a cyber deck hat, which is produced by Adafruit.

And it's basically a $9 angled adapter that plugs in to the GPIO because the placement's

weird.

And it allows you to take a 3.5 inch style touch or non touch display, which is another

30 bucks and stick it on the back and you'll be able to look at it non-touch display, which is another 30 bucks, and stick it on the back,

and you'll be able to look at it like a little display, you know, popping out of the back

of the keyboard, which is cool.

But it is kind of chunky.

So I think even cooler than that is the Cyberdeck Bonnet hat they released.

And what that is, is it's the same concept you're taking a little angled adapter, but

instead of adding a larger display, you're

just adding a little eink or small OLED display. And it's basically the length of the GPIO,

right? Size of a Raspberry Pi, which is, you know, three inches or something across tiny display.

And I think that's pretty red. So as far as like having a little display that gives you useful

information, like you got mail or something, that's pretty cool. So cyber deck bonnet.

Nice.

And so then we've got moving along, we have the Pi 500, right, which had improved thermal performance relative to higher specs. Now we've got 8 gigabytes of RAM for uses an actual keyboard.

8GB of RAM for use as an actual keyboard or even just as an actual computer. It's like the same chocolate style keys, but you have 8GB of RAM.

So I would say at least it's functionally useful with the web browser.

It's still going to be crappy.

If you run a lot of tabs and watch YouTube or something, you're going to run into problems.

Ask me how I know.

I actually have an 8GB of RAM old laptop and I run to that problem all the time

But now the price is greatly like slightly increased by a third so now it's $90 for the basic

Pi 500 another 30 bucks for the accessories

So it's like yeah, that's good

and

Then now we have the Pi 500 plus and the 500 plus is actually making this into a mechanical

keyboard device. So you've taken the Pi 500 and with the new plus you added mechanical keyboard

that's RGB backlit. Not strictly necessary, but it's cool. But most importantly, this actually adds an M.2 slot, which means it includes NVMe storage.

But they do give you the NVMe by default.

It's a 256 gigabyte NVMe.

This raises the overall cost of the device now.

Base device from $90 in the Pi 500 to $200.

If we could have skipped that 256 gigabyte NVMe,

we probably could have dropped the price,

you know, 30 bucks or something.

But it's definitely a price increase.

So I think it is cool, but it's something to consider.

The other thing is now the power needs of this device

have jumped to five amps.

And Raspberry Pi claims that their charger

is the only one that will support the device,

which means you have to buy the accessories for an additional $30.

So that raises it to $230 for the base Pi 500 plus,

with included 256GB NVMe and the power accessory little mouse.

So it's cool at a glance,

but it raises a question in my mind,

which is also, is this thing comfortable to type on?

I haven't used one if you've used one right in the show,

but I wanna know, is the Pi of 500 plus mechanical keyboard

if you own it comfortable to type on?

It's thick, it's notably thicker than a normal keyboard and as anyone who uses a computer knows the keyboard feel is critically important

right like chick like keys have been popular for the last decade plus

Because of the fact that they feel like they're like so thin right?

It's it's as thin as possible, like the ultimate thinness,

the least travel.

And that's the thing is like touch typey,

chicklet keys.

And now we have this device that has mechanical keys,

but the whole device is really, really thick.

And it just makes me wonder like,

do I actually want to type on that?

I don't have an answer for you.

I noticed the 500 plus is not fully supported

by the pi 400

keyboard project to just use as a regular keyboard.

But maybe people don't care about that.

I just feel like if you're going to buy a keyboard computer, why not use it as

your literal keyboard?

That's just me.

So yeah, I am just curious, like, is this uncomfortable to type on?

Um, do people care about that?

I don't know.

But there is questions in my mind.

So let's just talk about you like this idea of having this like, you know, RGB mechanical

device, but let's say you're like, you're still interested in this, but you don't actually

need the keyboard.

Well, what I ended up buying personally,

and I've got here is the Kibo 2040.

It's a Pi Pico based RGB lit mechanical 12 key keyboard.

So it's kind of like one of those Steam decks.

It's just Python programmed over USB,

plug it in as a USB device.

It shows up as a file, you edit that file,

and then it'll do whatever you set.

My issue now is I just don't know what to do with it, but it was basically $60, so more

or less the same price as the original Pi 400, which is $66 without the accessories.

So, keyboard 2040, Pi Pico, it's tiny, it's the size of my wallet, and it works. It's easy and it's

well made, it's a little PCB sandwich, and I like it. I'm not sure what to do with it. What should I

do? Let me know. I also wanted to offer a keyboard suggestion in general. If you just want a bomb proof cheap keyboard, I would recommend the

Dell SK8115. It's been a standard for 20 plus years. And the Dell SK8115 turns up at Goodwill

and thrift stores a lot for like a buck. I looked it up on eBay, it's around $12 to maybe

20, including shipping retail.

It's $60.

They still sell them.

But this is a bomb proof.

It raised key keyboard.

It looks nice.

It's USB and it literally will last for decades

of nonstop abuse.

It's meant to be spilled on and damaged and beaten

for years and years and years.

But I have one.

I've used one,

I've seen them in libraries and schools for many years

and I can highly recommend the Dell SK8115.

If you just want a keyboard and you don't care

if it's mechanical, the Dell will get it done

for the lowest possible price

and it will last you for as long as possible

and it's great keyboard.

So it's a typical wired USB keyboard, but it works well. And those are my

thoughts. I'd be curious what your thoughts are on cyber decks, the pie

keyboards. Is it something that makes sense? Do you use it? Or is it

something where you plug it in? And then you like, you kind of like

leave it in a corner somewhere, even though there's a keyboard on it.

But then it's like, why not just get the regular pie where you don't have the keyboard?

I don't know, man.

Thanks again to all of you for listening, supporting Linux Prepper podcast.
