For anyone interested, I made a very simple WebFinger responder
https://github.com/nikdoof/simple-webfinger
Feed it a OIDC URL and it'll respond back valid responses for Tailscale after adding keys in the 'accounts' dict.
Does the job, very manual twiddling, and at some point i'll get it to read the accounts out of Authentik itself.

I had a vauge failure message when trying to login to #tailscale with my OIDC provider via #authentik
After a some yak shaving fixing my kubeconfig to get into my cluster, fix the broken webfinger implementation to work correctly again, and it turns out that the signing certificate used for the provider in Authentik had expired and needed replacing with a new RSA based cert.
Why is nothing ever a simple fix in #selfhosting land...

Good news, after an unexpected 24 hour chill in the fridge my SSD works. Note to self, a five our Crusader Kings 2 session with the SSD parked on top of the power supply on the hottest day of the year is not a good idea.

If SpaceX can put a base price on their website for a satellite launch, you can put the base price of your f-in co-working space in Birchwood.
No, I don't want to ‘email you for prices' so I'll end up on your crap mailing list. JUST SAY HOW MUCH IT IS.

I really don't want to host my Masto instance at home anymore, as a simple media post will now deluge my connection with traffic (hurry up CityFibre!).
The cost associated with putting it on a VM is too much. I'd love to be able to just migrate my account elsewhere and keep my posts, but I know its not an option.

UTM (https://mac.getutm.app/) uses QEMU and makes use of the macOS virtualization framework so you get some bonus features like making use of Rosetta to run x86.
