  It’s not so much about the ports, its about what you’re running that’s accessible to the public.

  If you have a single website on 443 and SSH on 22 (or a non-standard port like 6543) you’re generally considered safe. This is 2 services and someone would need to attack one of the two to get in.

  If you have a VPN on 4567 and everything behind the VPN then someone would need to hack the VPN to get in.

  If you have 100 different things behind 443 then someone just needs to find a hole in one to get in.

  Generally ssh, nginx, a VPN are all safe and they should be on their own ports.

  NC is kind of a pain to run and tries to do far to much. I’d pick different software to run than adding addons to nextcloud.

  That being said, I add contacts and calendar and use it to sync to my PC/Phone

  To you test public WiFi with ZeroTier at all?

  I ask because there’s a few public networks where WG won’t connect and I’m trying to find ways around it. I could always use cell data but this is more fun to me.

  I know this doesn’t answer your question but I’ve never had this kind of problem with Usenet. I pay $35 USD a year and bought a couple “lifetime” memberships 6 years ago.

  What others have said should help solve the problem with torrents. If you can, it might be worth getting an account with a private site.

  In my case, 10+years ago I had 6 * 3tb Seagate disks in a software raid 5. Two of them failed and it took me days to force it back into the raid and get some of the data off. Now I use WD and raid 6.

  I read 3 or 4 years ago that it was just the 3tb reds I used had a high failure rate but I’m still only buying WDs

  Looks like you got it! Congrats.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ELI5: How to put several servers on one external IP?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Router gets the public IP. Login to it, find port forwarding option. You’ll pick a public port. IE 443 and forward it to a local IP:port combo, IE 192.168.0.101:443.

  Then you can pick another public port and forward it to a different private IP:port combo.

  If you want a subdomain, you forward one port to one host and have it do the work. IE configure Nginx to do whatever you want.

  Hang on, why not open the port to jellyfin to the internet?

  I have a lifetime Plex pass so its not urgent but I have a containers running emby and jellyfin to check them out. When I decide which one I planned to open it up and give people logins.

  I’m guilty of all these. I’m dyslexic and have a hard time spelling. At some point the personal dictionary on my phone learns words and I don’t get the warning anymore.

  The Nintendo GameCube (GCN) Controller – Nintendo Classics will be exclusively available for Nintendo Switch Online members and will initially only be offered to those invited to pre-order a Nintendo Switch 2 console

  Does this suggest I can buy it later or am I going to have to pay scalper price if I want it?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch 2 Launches on June 5th Worldwide; 1080p Screen With 120 FPS and HDR Support, Docked Mode 4K Resolution Support Confirmed⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The en-ca in the URL means nothing as I’ve bought from .ca websites and been charged in USD before. To be fair, it wasn’t a large company like Nintendo but it still happened. Fastest cancel I’ve ever done. So, Unless it’s explicitly called out next to the price or I’ve bought something from there before, I usually assume it’s USD.

  Looks like $629.99. Never sure if it’s CAD or USD but my Nintendo account is Canadian.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you like to transfer large files between friends across the internet?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I host pingvin for people to send stuff to me. To send, usually I’ll just move the file into a folder that exposed to Nginx with indexing and send that link. Otherwise I’ll also just use my pingvin instance.
