- Comment on Randy Pitchford asks fans if they'd swallow future Borderlands exclusivity deals, almost 10,000 people say just put your damn games on Steam 19 hours ago:
I wasn’t disagreeing with you, just pointing out your example was a bit wild. I fully agree with your other point. Although I would also point out that the early exclusives were that simply because it just didn’t occur to devs to release a game on more than one console.

There were two options for “just put it on Steam”. You didn’t read the article, or you didn’t understand the difference between the two.

While deals weren’t really a part of it, exclusivity has been a feature of console gaming from the very beginning.

I mean, the majority chose the option that said exactly that.

- Comment on Cloudflare blocking AI crawlers 2 days ago:
Well, they have access to logs showing who connects to 24 million websites, how they use those websites, and for how long. So if there’s anyone who knows what traffic is crawlers, and which crawlers are AI, it’s Cloudflare. There’s no way they wouldn’t know, they have all the data they would ever need to figure it out. In fact, there’s nobody on the internet who is better positioned to be able to identify AI crawlers than Cloudflare.
- Comment on If government hackers can infiltrate big companies, why not hack normal people? 6 days ago:
Keep in mind, in some cases it’s harder to hack an individual, especially if they are the slightest bit security conscious. Big corporations often use outdated software, sometimes painfully so. It’s not really uncommon to hear about corporations using software that has been abandoned for decades. Meanwhile, your laptop and cell phone automatically update. Meaning, there’s a chance you are a little more secure than your average corporation.

Nah, I get it. I’ve held on to certain products or services before because I liked them for a specific purpose, even when people tried to get me to switch to others. And it’s not like Karakeep is the wrong choice, it does what you’re using it for very well. Until the whole trademark/copyright crisis recently, I used it too. I only switched to Linkwarden when the future of the project was maybe in doubt.

It’s over man. You’re certified expert yapper but that’s not going to convince me or anyone else here that you know what you’re talking about.
Is this Reddit? When were we supposed to be seeking the validation of random strangers on the net, especially ones who brag about their bona fides like it’s a CoD lobby? You keep saying it’s over, but for some reason you keep coming back here to try to get the last word. If I’m in a position of weakness, why is it you’re the one trying so hard? You’re in a dick measuring contest against yourself. I’m getting second-hand embarrassment.

I ported my data from Hoarder/Karakeep around the time of their copyright crisis, and I’ve loved the software so far.

Why would you say Karakeep is more for data preservation than Linkwarden? Linkwarden has all the features that Karakeep has, and more.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 6 days ago:
Yeah, some random nobody trying to convince people they’re a cybersecurity expert is gonna be what shuts me up.
I very clearly laid out my setup, and how you were wrong. If you can’t even read well enough to understand that, let alone form som kind of actual argument backed up by reality, that isn’t my problem to deal with.
I would say stick to your own day job, but if this is actually your day job then maybe check out whether your local Burger King has openings, you’ll do less harm there.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 6 days ago:
If you were any good at reading, you would know that I said those rules protect the Authelia login page. They don’t protect the Jellyfin service or its login page at all. The Jellyfin instance is not behind anything except Cloudflare. I stated that in my very first message. Removing those rules would have no effect whatsoever on Jellyfin.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 6 days ago:
Whoa whoa whoa. What malicious attempts?
I said it would block all malicious attempts. I didn’t say the people trying to access my services were malicious. Clearly the OP is worried about that. I however, having just the meager experience of, you know, actually fucking running the a Jellyfin server, am not. But I’m also not trying convince people I’m a smug cybersecurity expert with a decade of experience.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 6 days ago:
Yes they are. The idea that they’re not would be a statistical wonder.
Guess I’m a wonder then. I’ve always thought of myself as pretty wonderful, I’m glad to hear you agree.
Are you logging into your Authelia login page 2k times a day? If not, I suspect that some (most) of those are malicious lol.
That’s 2k requests made. None of them were served. Try to keep up.
Well I am an expert with over a decade of experience in cybersecurity, but I’m not acting like an expert here, I’m acting like somebody with at least a rudimentary understanding of how these things work.
Then I guess I should get a career in cybersecurity, because I obviously know more than someone with over a decade of supposed experience. If you were worth whatever your company is paying you in wages, you would know that a rule blocking connections from other countries, and also requiring the request for the login page come from one of the services on your domain, will block virtually all malicious attempts to access your services. Such a rule doesn’t work for a public site, but for a selfhosted setup it’s absolutely an easy option to reduce your bandwidth usage and make your setup far more secure.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 6 days ago:
No, they are actively trying to get in right now. If you have Authelia exposed they’re brute forcing it.
No, they aren’t. Just to be sure, I just checked it, and out of the over 2k requests made to the Authelia login page in the last 24 hours, none have made it to the login page itself. You don’t know jack shit about what’s going on in another persons network, so I’m not sure why you’re acting like some kind of expert.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 6 days ago:
No, people are probing it right now. But looking at the logs, nobody has ever made it through. And I run a pretty basic setup, just Cloudflare and Authelia hooking into an LDAP server, which powers Jellyfin. Somebody who invests a little more time than me is probably a lot safer. Tailscale is nice, but it’s overkill for most people, and the majority of setups I see posted here are secure enough to stop any random scanning that happens across them, if not dedicated attention.
- Comment on Jellyfin over the internet 1 week ago:
My go to secure method is just putting it behind Cloudflare so people can’t see my IP, same as every other service. Nobody is gonna bother wasting time hacking into your home server in the hopes that your media library isn’t shit, when they can just pirate any media they want to watch themselves with no effort.

- Comment on After Israel and USA's bombing, wouldn't any supposed nuclear bombs go off if there were any? 1 week ago:
A nuclear bomb requires precise explosions delivered by shaped charges to achieve fission. You could strap C4 to the sides of a nuke and set them off, and you probably wouldn’t create a nuclear explosion. It’s a very delicate kind of weapon with very sophisticated engineering.
