• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare is down this morning ⁩ ⁨⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  A statement from cloudflare blamed “a spike in unusual traffic”, but I guess the actual cause of the outage was a config file generated in response exceeded the max size

  cnbc.com/…/cloudflare-down-outage-traffic-spike-x…

  Technically a DoS, but not in the most common sense

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cloudflare is down this morning ⁩ ⁨⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  Preliminary articles say this was a DDoS.

  They already tried it with Chromebooks.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Android really the next big desktop operating system?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Betteridge’s law

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Gaming Laptop with Linux Preinstalled and 32GB+ RAM?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Dell offers Ubuntu on some models.

  You might get better answers in a Linux community, since that’s the focus of your question.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cams, anyone?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Can we pin one of these posts? The same thing gets asked even few days and the answers don’t change nearly that frequently

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

  Especially because jellyfin is not designed to be on the Internet. There are several known unresolved security issues, and probably more unknown. I strongly recommend using a VPN for access.

  Gearing up? They already do. The DGX series is available for purchase right now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is Perplexity the first AI unicorn to fail?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It wasn’t even removed from deepseek. Ask it to tell you about it in Spanish and it will. It’s only filtered on the output side, and only in English and Chinese, as far as I tested.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Fediverse and WordPress Should Be Better Friends, with Evan Prodromou⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Sure. But as long as Matt Mullenweg is still in charge, WordPress is toxic.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I recommend ComfyUI. It makes running everything trivial, and is very easy to learn, use, and extend.

  I also recommend supporting artists directly and learning to draw.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Self hosting Sunday! What's up, selfhosters?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  In fact you must use the fork. The old one no longer works with recent Docker, due to API versioning. I found that out last night when I brought up my compose stack and traefik wouldn’t start, because it too needed an update.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Introducing SlopStop: Community-driven AI slop detection in Kagi Search⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Running services costs money.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is cracking down on illegal streaming on its Fire TV Stick⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  For that I think you need Chrome. I haven’t done it in a while, because from my phone I can use Jellyfin or Web Video Caster.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is cracking down on illegal streaming on its Fire TV Stick⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It doesn’t require Chrome. No idea about Miracast, because I just use the Chromecast in-app connection on my phone.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Amazon is cracking down on illegal streaming on its Fire TV Stick⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve just been using a Chromecast and my phone for nearly a decade now.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨virtualizing OPNsense is....not going great⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yeah, pci passthrough would probably do it. I assume you used the best-supported virtual adapter and drivers in the guest. But failing that, you could also try USB passthrough. You should still be able to get full gigabit (i.e. ~800Mbps) on one of those, even with passthrough.

  But I still don’t recommend it, because if your host has issues, your firewall and router do too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nginx Jellyfin, both Docker containers⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, those do different things. Expose the VPN, connect via your domain name.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, that’s why I wrote “innovation” and not innovation. I’m not sure if there’s something that better communicates the Dr. Evil air quotes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  They used to be called service packs.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  “Innovation” is part of profit.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨German court: ChatGPT violated copyright law by ‘learning’ from song lyrics⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Unless you are performing it for others, or for profit, they generally don’t care.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Stop cramming everything onto one Pi: treat your home lab like a tiny ISP - hardware, stack, backups and an update plan⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Does it have multiple PSUs? A single chassis can still be a single point of failure.

  I mean he quit working for Microsoft and started Valve because he disagreed with their direction.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit mod jailed for sharing movie sex scenes in rare “moral rights” verdict⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  In what way?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Reddit mod jailed for sharing movie sex scenes in rare “moral rights” verdict⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Same reason you can’t turn someone’s social media photos into a porno mag for sexual gratification. It’s unethical and exploitative.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nginx Jellyfin, both Docker containers⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re trying to run before you can walk. Run a “hello world” HTTP container, no cloudflare or proxy, and make sure you can reach it. But test it with your phone on mobile data, or downforeveryoneorjustme.com, because it probably won’t work on the LAN without NAT loopback/hairpinning.

  Also, don’t put jellyfin on the internet anyway, it’s not designed for it. If you want external access, use a VPN.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do so many services require email configuration?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  You should probably ask the developers then. But the answer is probably to support things like password resets in environments with multiple users. It’s less development effort to implement it this way than to maintain multiple code paths with varying levels of account management.
