Because modern journalism is ad supported, and advertisers don’t want their ads next to anything related to sex.

I’ma be honest, I suspect that these users are trying to gain a “reputation” and at some point try to promote some onlyfans creators.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How to get a phone notification if my VPS goes offline?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
There’s a lot of options. There’s countless paid services that offer exactly that.

If you wanna build something yourself for free, you could probably set up a site accessible via HTTP on your server and create a script on your phone that pings it every 30 seconds or so. Afaik, termux has a termux-notify function that lets you send a notification.

Pseudocodelike, it would look somewhere like this I think:
```
#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Config 
NOTIFY_TITLE="Server Alert"
NOTIFY_MESSAGE="Server returned a non‑200 status."

HOST="funnysite.com"
PORT=8080
PATH="/healtcheck"

URL="http://${HOST}:${PORT}${PATH}"
# Config

HTTP_CODE=$(curl -s -o /dev/null -w "%{http_code}" "$URL")

if [[ "$HTTP_CODE" != "200" ]]; then
    termux-notify -t "$NOTIFY_TITLE" -c "$NOTIFY_MESSAGE $HOST:$PORT → $HTTP_CODE"
fi

exit 0
```
Afaik, termux doesn’t ship the cron daemon, but you can install cronie or use an external task scheduler. There, just set to run the script every 60 seconds or so. Whatever you need.

I haven’t tested anything of this, but in my head, it sounds like it should work fine.

Wildlands was genuinely a good game. Like, story wise and shit, irrelevant, but the open world roaming in coop with my brother was probably some of the most fun we ever had in any ubisoft game.

However, this doesn’t surprise me at all considering that ubisoft is creatively bankrupt for years now.

I don’t think there’s any irony in people trying to make money with their work. And I’d much much MUCH rather have them insert multiple sponsors in a video that I can just skip over than worry about ads and their constant tracking.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dashboard for my servers⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Heimdall or Dashy are the first things that come to mind. However, what I would do in your case is using local URLs that you can resolve via a local DNS like pihole. That way, you don’t have to remember IPs and ports, but just services. If you need different ports, you might need a proxy in between, which is also set up fairly quickly with nginx.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Popular self-hosting services worth running⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

You’re still querying search engines with your IP

IP in itself might not be as much of a problem, unless you have a static IP, which most consumers don’t. And even if you do, you are also hiding a lot of baggage relating to user agents or other fingerprintable settings. IP alone is rarely used as a sole point to link your traffic to other datapoints. On top of that, you can still just decide to exclude google, bing etc from your search results and rely more “open” ones like DDG or ecosia.

Another huge upside of searxng is the aggregation of results. The search results of google are all up to, well, google. Same with bing, which is controlled by microsoft. If these companies now decide to “surpress” certain information, people using only those engines directly would no longer see those news. However, if you get your results from multiple search engines, you are not - or lets say less - affected by that kind of nonsense.

As always with news and information, the truth usually lies somewhere in the middle. And that’s where searxng helps out tremendously.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard! - arthurpizza⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

simply don’t have time

Sorry, but that is no reason. That’s a bit akin to having a dog and saying: “Nah I don’t have time to walk the dog now”. Selfhosting something that is publicly available (not as in “everyone can use it” but “everyone can access it") bears some level of responsibility. You either make the time to properly set up and maintain it, or you shouldn’t selfhost stuff.

I would add searxng - a bit finnicky to set up but very powerful and customizeable.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard! - arthurpizza⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Adding certificates is a 5 step process: Settings -> Privacy and Security -> View Certificates -> Import -> Select file and confirm. That’s on firefox at least, idk about chrome, but probably not significantly more complex. With screenshots, a small guide would be fairly easy to follow.

Don’t get me wrong, I do get your point, but I don’t feel like making users add client certs to their browser storage is more work than helping them every 2 weeks because they forgot their password or shit like that lol. At least, that’s my experience. And the cool thing about client certs is they can’t really break it, unlike passwords which they can forget, or change them because they forgot, just to then forget they changed it. Once it runs, it runs.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard! - arthurpizza⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
The “average user” shouldn’t selfhost anything. Might sound mean or like gatekeeping, but it’s the truth. It can be dangerous. There’s a reason why I hire an electrician to do my house installation even tho I theoretically know how to do it myself - because I’m not amazingly well versed in it and might burn down my house, or worse, burn down other peoples houses.

People who are serious about selfhosting need to learn how to do it. Halfassing it will only lead to it getting breached, integrated into a botnet and being a burden on the rest of humanity.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard! - arthurpizza⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

And I kinda don’t want to know if complex passwords and low retries before an account gets locked out are enough.

I’ve created a custom cert that I verify within my nginx proxy using ssl_client_certificate and ssl_verify_client on. I got that cert on every device I use in the browser storage, additionally on a USB stick on my keychain in case I’m on a foreign or new machine. That is so much easier that bothering with passwords and the likes.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard! - arthurpizza⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
People who don’t care about security are the cancer of the selfhosting-world. Billions of devices are part of a botnet because lazy owners don’t care about even the most basic shit, like changing the stock password. It’s insane.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨They Said Self-Hosting Was Hard! - arthurpizza⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
As long as you don’t directly connect it to the internet, it’s not hard.

When you do, it does become hard.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An old excuse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

the country that invaded, couped and otherwise subjugated the majority of the world

Correct. That one. The chechen wars, the georgian wars, the war for transnistria, the invasion of ukraine … and that is not even mentioned all their support in the middle east.

the country with almost countless military bases around the world

Yes. True aswell.

While america certainly has more, let’s not pretend that russia has little or even none. They have a heavy military presence in africa, the middle east and the occupied regions south of russia.

the country of Native genocide

My man, after the georgian wars, there has been an ethnic cleansing of georgians in the affected regions, most noteably abkhazia and ossetia. Now, I don’t know the total numbers and could only find total death tolls, but it’s still an ethnic cleansing on a large scale.

gunboat diplomacy

True, russia isn’t doing that - because they are just straightup invading the country instead.

three letter agency destabilisation

Yes, the FSB (the direct successor of the KGB) is certainly not engaging in any destabilization around the world. They would never bomb their own people and blame chechen insurgents for it so they can break the peace treaty and attack again … ah wait. That’s exactly what they did.

You’re dipped head to toe in propaganda

Nah. I know exactly that america is a shitty country, especially under trump. But when putting all their misdeeds side by side and looking at it from a neutral point of view, russia has been way more harmful to the world than america. That does not mean that america has been a net-positive btw - both are shit. But russia is way worse.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨An old excuse⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

It’s very hard for me to understand how russia is not on that list in the first spot ngl.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨"We don't use it, we have no interest in it" Romeo is a Dead Man's Suda 51 dismisses AI development tools, says AI images and videos "feel kinda 'off'"⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
I wouldn’t say there is “no” use case.

For example, a friend of mine is landscape gardener and he regularly uses AI to basically help customers understand what he plans and how it would look. I made him a small webapp where he can simply snap a pic and writes a prompt like: “To this garden, add a small, round base filled with pebbles in the middle, add a bench and two metal poles left and right”. AI generates the pic, he rewrites the prompt a few times and once he’s satisfied, can show it to the customer who then exactly knows how it looks. He used to do that with photoshop himself which took him a lot longer and customers were more often unhappy with the outcome because the picture didn’t show it as clearly as the AI generated pictures do, so he had to do some adjustments, which obviously eats into the profits.

So yeah, there is actually a good amount of use cases. However, none of those use cases requires literal trillions being pumped into the AI industry.
