My #homelab server, which is accessible over the internet, stopped responding today. I walked back home and the server was fine from inside the house. After like five minutes, it was clear what the problem was: my ISP gave me a new lease and my external IP changed.
So today I spent an hour or so and go a bash script running on a cronjob that double check to see if my DNS records match my homelab external IP and updates the DNS if they don't.
Is this high availability? No, this is sustainable technology and owning your own platforms. There is no cloud, there's a macbook pro running #linux proped against a wall.
