Judging from the grammar in this comment, I’m guessing there’s a lot you haven’t readed.

This isn’t where you post about general FOSS stuff.

I would say that finding that balance is up to the individual admin and application, really, which is where the defense in depth comes in. Yeah, it’s rare, and if those exploits are being used it means you’ve got the attention of someone you probably can’t really stop, but it’s something to take into consideration. Bad configs can cause data leakage across container boundaries, too, so without knowing the admin’s skill level, I tend to recommend against sharing that hardware with something that might have something valuable on it. AI has made it easier for script kiddies to find zero-days and exploit APT-level vulnerabilities, too.

I would NOT host a Lemmy instance at home unless you’re going to obfuscate your IP address. If you make it public, you’re inviting any whackjob that sees your username to find your physical location. Additionally, I wouldn’t host it on a PC that you actually intend to use for day to day stuff, just in case the instance gets hacked and someone manages to escape the container it’s in. If you wanted to do this, I would put it on its own box with Cloudflare in front of it, otherwise you’re inviting trouble where there doesn’t need to be any.

I’ve gone back and forth on Creality. I had a first-gen, non-pro Ender 3 that I got new for like $230. I spent so much time trying to get it to work that I feel like I could build an entire printer from scratch at this point, firmware included. That experience was valuable, though, and it made me really appreciate the performance of my CR10 v3 when I got that. Sure, it’s slow compared to modern printers, but it’s huge and takes standard parts for literally everything. Plus, I’ve only had it fail maybe 4 times in the 3 years I used it. Moving to a P1S was a great choice for me at the time, but now that Bambu has gone full Orwell, I’m looking for another alternative for my next machine. Hell, I’m considering going back to my CR10 in the meantime just to keep the prying eyes away from my prints.

Unfortunately, a lot of large companies have endpoint protection as a compliance requirement, regardless of OS.

Not for things like check deposits, unfortunately

I dig it. I know it’ll kill performance a bit but on beefier machines it probably won’t be noticable.
