  Speedrunning

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI crawlers cause Wikimedia Commons bandwidth demands to surge 50%.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s what ddos protection is for.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ve had dumb vulnerabilities in every single console. Given this one is a refresh, it probably won’t have some huge unpatchable vuln, but there’s always something.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Switch 2 Rollout Was So Convoluted It Made Us Want A Steam Deck.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Almost like they base prices on actual financial accounting and not the feelings of gamers.

  Of course any economist will tell you economics is part psychology and sociology because humans aren’t rational actors, but it evens out at these large scales, and they have to start somewhere.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Switch 2 mouse mode (such potential)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  You really, really want to play Switch 2 games soon

  Or without having to learn to emulate. Or play coop/multiplayer with the joycons.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would there be any potential problem of hosting public and/or private (vpn) services in a school office?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  If authorized by the school IT department and policy, yes. Ask them, not us.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo Switch 2 Game-Key Card Overview⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They’ve been doing that for decades now. Lots of PC games had a box and CD, but the only thing on it was a stub installer to run Steam. Or even if it had the full game, you’d have to download a giant day-one patch to fix all the bugs fixed between the image going gold and the actual release day.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI crawlers cause Wikimedia Commons bandwidth demands to surge 50%.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, but neither of those wrige as cleanly. And both are still prone to fragmenting, even if the fragments aren’t conductive.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI crawlers cause Wikimedia Commons bandwidth demands to surge 50%.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Graphite is conductive. A short circuit and fire are Very Bad.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI crawlers cause Wikimedia Commons bandwidth demands to surge 50%.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  An HTTP request is a request. Servers are free to rate limit or deny access

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What steps do you take to secure your server and your selfhosted services?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  For up to 16 endpoints or something like that, yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What steps do you take to secure your server and your selfhosted services?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t put it on the Internet.

  I have automatic updates enabled and once in a while I scan with Nessus. Also I have backups. Stuff dying or me breaking it is a much greater risk than getting hacked.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨OpenWrt Two will be a higher-performance router with 10 Gigabit LAN and WiFi 7 support - Liliputing⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Routers can run just fine off only one port too: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Router_on_a_stick

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help fixing invalid origin with memos⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You assume there is no vulnerability in the web server itself, or a vulnerability that allows bypassing authentication.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Selfhosting Sunday - What's up?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  What’s in the radarr log? You have your downloader configured, enabled, and tested I assume?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Help fixing invalid origin with memos⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Stop exposing services like these to the Internet. If you need remote access, use a VPN.

  You don’t need to own a domain either. Use a free dynamic DNS provider.

  And if you don’t need remote access, don’t bother with that at all. Just run a local DNS server with records for these services with anything under the .internal TLD. Or even just IP address.

  HTTPS can come later. It’s really not important for traffic that’s not sensitive, like no passwords or whatever.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The fediverse has a bullying problem⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  And because you can’t punch me in the face over the Internet (yet).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Logitech is dropping support for its oldest Harmony remotes⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Often, these include code that they don’t have the rights to publish.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Have you tried tracing the issue? What is uptimekuma using for DNS? What do the logs on that server show?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Putin threatens US over Greenland ambition: ‘We will not allow encroachments’⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oh he just wants a cut. I thought he was actually threatening for a minute there.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨samba docker compose help ver2⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Does the docker user have permission to that folder?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I fit a network card with a physical x4 slot into an x1 slot?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Cut the slot? Or desolder it and replace it with one with an open back.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨ServerPartsDeals Hardrive failure after 3 days? looking for advice,⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Personally my threshold for “probably too old” is 40k hours, but if they show very few start/stops and they test out, they’ll probably be fine.

  But failures can happen at any time, even right from the factory. Just get the replacement. You should always be prepared to replace drives, if you want high uptime and low data loss.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨SEIM⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wazuh if you want a product instead of building it from scratch.

  I’d give Greenbone a try too, I think it’s most analogous to Nessus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨samba docker compose help⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Does the docker user have permission to that folder?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meta rolls out a pilot program on Instagram designed to let US schools flag any potentially rule-violating post or account for prioritized review.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  And they’re still going to do jack shit about it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Upscaling is actually good (as an option)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If I really need upscaling, I just let my monitor do it with bilinear scaling or whatever. No fancy hardware required.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Combining Netbox and Ansible⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  The latter. Ansible isn’t for storing configs, it’s for applying them.
