  Yep, fair. Those docker-composes which just forward the ports to the host on all interfaces should burn. At least they should make them 127.0.0.1 forwards, I agree.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Hosting multiple services with one IP address.⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  all internal services will be accessible

  What? Only when they are configured to listen on outside interfaces. Which, granted, they often are in default configuration, but when OP uses Docker on that host, chances are kinda slim that they run some rando unconfigured database directly. Which still would be password or authentication protected in default config.

  I mean, it is never wrong slapping a firewall onto something, I guess. But OTOH those “all services will be exposed and evil haxxors will take you over” is also a disservice.

  Well, I just give them a contract for a speech of two minutes, worth 3 million, I guess. Even those politicians will see the appeal in just receiving plain ol’ money instead of jumping through all those hoops.

  That’s why I always want to crowdsource corruption. Everybody who wants something gives 3 Euro/Dollar/Whatever and we just carry those cash suitcases to the morons in charge. What big companies can do, we can do!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Had the same feeling about Horizon. The Open World was not that open and not much to discover. The story kept me hooked though, it is well written.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Sony AI patent will see PlayStation games play themselves when players are stuck⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wait until they discover some remote controller, where you can switch the games that are played according to some schedule. Like some form of game stations. Maybe they could broadcast them for the whole population somehow and talk about the games they played watched last week on their next town hall gathering or Sunday church with Aunt Lizzy.

  Fill the water in bottles behind your generator and sell it at cheaper rates to folks who pay for their water…even more profit!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've never been in a situation where me having a gun would have made things bettter.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe getting chill and more aware is just a function of getting older. I mean, I live in a country where nobody is armed and: I get in less dangerous situations and am more aware than in my youth.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've never been in a situation where me having a gun would have made things bettter.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  You can skew the results if you’re accounting for bad aim.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do you get a certificate for an internal domain?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Idk if I understood the problem correctly, but you can renew with DNS challenge, if the real server is not reachable directly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Setting up VPS (finally)⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I get the same feeling, like, as if three letter agencies from all over the world start targeting your server specifically in 300 ms.

  What happens is, yes, your server is immediately bombarded by ScriptKiddies from all over the world, and if you set up root SSH with hunter2 as password, that thing is taken over immediately. But if you only allow keyfile SSH you’re 98% there already ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

  Then they find this chip, but cannot decipher it, because they don’t understand mathematics not able to divide by 0 😅.

  Do people even still exist who have the arcane knowledge to type in a domain directly?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨CopyParty is kind of a great file server⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  All config with docker is the same, so basically every service is kind of maintained and especially backuped the same.

  Plus, config is just files. If the server is dead, copy volumes and compose files to new machines, two commands, all services up again. No difference in how to deploy some services.

  No, it’s clearly the fault of the buses. So defunding public transport it is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I just saw the news of a new Enshrouded update yesterday and thought about trying it again. Did they change the build system in recent months? While I enjoyed discovering the map, I somehow found the building lacking. My benchmark is the Valheim build system, that is the sweet spot for me. What I crave for is a “survival” game with a Valheim build system AND a reason to build castles/villages/whatever. That is what Enshrouded did well with those characters.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Preparing for the hardware market disruption⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, but storage requirements go up, so it stays the same (at best). It feels more expensive though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Own domain for Jellyfin and privacy concerns⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t even need storage or performance or anything on the VPS, just forward stuff to the homeserver.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Own domain for Jellyfin and privacy concerns⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  But that is about the ISP (and all hops in between). The provider, where you buy the domain does not see the traffic at all. Basically the domain seller just controls tme nameservers for that domain, but doesn’t see the traffic that goes to those domains.

  Basically by buying a domain you buy an entry into the telephone book

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  You can rent a cheap VServer as well and use its static IP to forward traffic. Easiest for it would be SSH reverse tunnel. Or you could VPN it with your homelab (connection established from within your homelab).

  If you don’t want to rely on an external service you could as well establish a VPN server within your homelab and use IPv6 to connect to it, although the disadvantage would be, that if you’re trying to connect from IPv4 networks ‘outside’ that wouldn’t work.

  Just listing some options to research. Welcome to the hobby, have fun 🤗

  Apparenthy Australians three hours at noon www.abc.net.au/news/2025-11-03/…/105965472

  Or if you have one of those fancy new “bill by the minute according to exchange prices” contract in the EU, you might even receive money for using electricity at certain times 😅. But those times are (yet) far in between, so blasting the sweet free energy on crypto is not really viable.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Where do I even start?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How do I learn

  …you say in your OP. Yet instead of learning, you complain “what kind of crap server is that”. You don’t learn by thinking anything is the softwares fault.

  It is perfecthy normal, that you can reach the server IN your home network only when you are connected TO your home network. That is a security feature by your router and thus by design. But in order to learn how to open it up, you would need to be willing to learn.

  But for the beginning: how is that even bad or crap? Like, it saves your photos when you come home and connect to wifi. Awesome, congrats!

  Probably language settings. Depending on your client you need to change those in the Lemmy WebUI. There’s something like preferred languages.

  You put them in a safe and forget about them for some time. Flash is gone, spinning still has data.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is a good self-hosted solution for sharing files with friends?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Webdav is just a http “file system”. You can then e.g. mount the storage space as a webfolder in your operating system.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨hmm breakfast⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, nicotine is self-medication for a lot of undiagnosed ADHD folks. So, there are health benefits. Far outweighed by the health drawbacks though. At least for smoking to get the sweet, sweet nicotine.
