Wireguard works best for private traffic, but you can't host a public site with that.

Of course you can! Nginx and wireguard on a VPS and actual services wherever you want.

If you can dedicate some time to constant keep up - pick a rolling distro. Doing major version upgrades has never not had problems for me. Every major distro has one.

My choice is Gentoo, but I'm weird like that. Having said that - my email server has been running happily on Arch for just over 5 years now.

The lemmy instance I host is on Debian testing - Gentoo was not available on DO - no issues so far.

Even when it's mostly containers - why waste time every n years doing the big upgrade? Small change is always safer.

Is this the repo of the tool?

Never had a chance to give syncthing a shot, but nextcloud works very well. On top of that, if you ever want to ditch apple/google - it will also happily sync your contacts, calendar, etc, as well as more niche stuff like bike rides. It can become chonky, but that really depends on how much stuff you're asking it to do.

If not for an occasional comment like yours - I would never remember I've defederated them. Thanks!

@Weslee has already answered, but in general - you can see [de]federated instances at an <instance url>/instances. In my case that would be lemmy.cafe/instances

Precision guesswork here, but I've had nginx (not on opnsense) redirecting me to the default host quite a few times recently - all times it was me cocking up its config. It could be that nginx is waiting for the actual target until it times out and then just gives a your opnsense gui as the most reasonable response.

I'd start checking its config. Or pasting it here, after removing secrets, it any.

tar was nearly and adult when zip was born.

Illecors ,
@Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

The link does not load for some reason, but tar itself does not compress anything. Compression can (and usually is) applied afterwards, but that's an additional integration that is not part of Tape ARchive, as such.

I think this is a legitimate email. What it's saying is that your google password is compromised. Google blocked the login attempt for other reasons, but please change your password.

I've been occasionally giving Linux a shot since bubuntu 5.04 and it would never stick. I guess many things aligned at some point in 2017-18 when I just gave up on windows and microsoft in general. I've been sticking to my beloved gnome, fighting it to do things it wasn't built to.

And then came 2019 and sway 1.0 got released. It felt like reddit imploded. Decided to finally give this "tiling nonsense" a try. A week or so later it finally clicked and I've not been fighting my system anymore.

Fast forward a few years and I'm now a Gentoo, OpenRC, OpenRC-init and Hyprland nutter :)

Double check if you have the -modules and/or -modules-extra installed for that version of the kernel. Literally had this issue at work on a 14.04 (sigh, I know) box.

Wait, there's someone here aware of hardened gentoo? Well I'll be damned! Come out of the shadows, fellas!

@Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

Excuse me, sir, it's the Gentoo bits that are supposed to be hard, not yours.

On an unrelated note - I'm building a binhost. Currently stuck on trying to figure out a way of building packages without instaling them and not using quickpkg>

Illecors ,
@Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

Because that requires actually understanding the way a computer works.

@Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

Thanks for giving a genuine smile :)

No it won't. That's such a stupid thing to write about. I don't remember tomshardware being this clickbaity.

You can run

apt install package=version

to be explicit about it.

Illecors ,
@Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

Nothing is ever gone. You can always install whatever bug-ridden version you want of anything.

I agree in general, but would like to point out that it is possible to escape. Not completely, but I have managed to set up an environment where it's mostly fine. And by mostly fine I mean not perferct, but using somebody else's device makes my eye twitch.

    Technically, I guess. Any country that's not US will do.

    Illecors ,
    @Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

    Yea, these stats don't feel right - no way US is only 57%.

    I'd been running OPNsense in a VM for some time. I used xen as a hypervisor, but that shouldn't really be a requirement. Passed the nics through and it was golden! All the benefits of a VM - quick boot-up, snapshots on the hypervisor - it's truly glorious :)

    Dunno, worked well for me. Give it a shot and see if anything needs to be disabled.

    Threads is automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed (mastodon.social)

    For anyone wondering if Threads and Facebook at large will be a fine neighbor in the space and compatible with other apps/services in the fediverse: they’re already automatically hiding comments that mention Pixelfed https://mastodon.social/@dansup/112126250737482807

    I don't have your requirements, but nextcloud with Memories works well enough for me. Nextcloud does the file things, including auto upload from phones. Memories then displays those photos.

    Never had the chance to seriously look into libressl. Do you think it would work fine if most of the world was running it rather than openssl?

    I think this is a fruit of the labour that was done by some guy reverse engineering gta vc. It got shut down by rockstar, but the source was public, so it lives on.

    Illecors ,
    @Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

    It is! People have been burnt by others and have now settled for mediocrity. Nothing wrong with that, I suppose; nothing right, either.

    I've already made the decision to defed .ml for their commie registration form stunt. Hearing shit like this makes me want to start my own world news sub. Blackjack and hookers optional.

    NFS comes to mind, naturally.

    I remember some years ago scp had a big issue, can't recall what, though. But that made me have a look at rsync, and I've been using that ever since. Flags are a bit atteocious, but I've aliases rsync -avz status=progress to copy and it's been happy days. One other benefit - incremental copy. Helps in cases where a copy procedure had been stopped for whatever reason.

    @Illecors@lemmy.cafe avatar

    This should be obvious, but lemmy tells me otherwise.

    Yea, lemmy's biggeat issue is that it's chockful of delusional kids.

    The only part I disagree with is sharing such things with c suite - too much of a potential to backfire.

    Does importing the ca not help?

    I did mean your android system. I'm not on jellyfin, yet, so not familliar with uts quirks.

    This sucks. YT kids does not have ads, the main client does!

    The article is crap, but it is correct in that you don't need to use airplane mode. I would, however, advise to still use it purely to preserve battery life of your device as otherwise it will very aggressively keep scanning for networks and drain it.

    What is a recommended SSD nowadays? I don't really have a criteria other than avoiding the noise - sata works well enough for me.

    This is ridiculously good :D

    The issue with matrix is it's unreliable. Text works, because it doesn't really matter if it arrives a minute or so late. Everything else kind of really sucks. The inability to decrypt my chats on all devices every now and then just straight up pisses me off. And they're not newly added devices - all of them have been signed into at the time of messages getting delivered!

    Well, you bastard. You're doing well!!!
