@zhenech at least that's in the direction of a server that you care about!

"care" might be a bit far-fetched, but yes, the one I want to talk to in general XD

but also, wasn't that code of yours trying to get the "default", so shouldn't it be using 0.0.0.0 as target?

@zhenech it wasn't my code, that's gitea's code :)

heh. it gives me 127.0.0.1 as the IP for 0.0.0.0 target tho, so maybe there is some "truth" in using a "real" target.

@zhenech `hostname --ip-address` is sitting right there (or the underlying tactic of gethostbyname'ing the local name

on the other hand (well, phone, really), hostname gives me 127.0.0.1, exclusively, while the socket trick works "just fine".
And then there is:
% hostname --ip-address
hostname: illegal option -- -
usage: hostname [-f] [-s | -d] [name-of-host]
(I should be happy it did not set the hostname to `--ip-address` I guess?)

*udp* port *80* (not a thing on 8.8.8.8) to get what I assume they intend to be the IP for the interface with the default route on it - this code doesnt even need a return packet, just the local addr

@silverwizard not even to mention ipv6 only networks, or boxes dual homed where the route to the gitea instance is on an interface that's not the default route

then I wouldn't be using two different VPNs and different routings for WiFi and wired networks? :)

@zhenech i deleted my snarky toot which I assume this is in reply to - but yeah, shit's hard and turns out assumptions can cause crashes! 😢

yes, it's the reply to the snarky hard truth.
