Basically why i feel more comfortable with LXC than docker for my home lab services. It feels more like a VM in management.

We run a good mix of docker, vm’s and bare metal at work; no containers are auto-updated

I know of at lest Nordic languages, german languages, slavic languages, Urdu, Yiddish

Some are not literal translations, but have the same meening. Like silly as a goose - not stupid. Or just beeing refered to as a goose implying simplicity, stupidity or sillyness.

The word goose by itself has extensive use un english https://www.reginacoeli.com/blog/goose-idioms.html

It’s a common insult in many languages - with a lot of theories about origins.
You can track medival usage of this all over Europe, but I have no knowledge about other continents.

Insults in general hold more power in honor-cultures. Your grandparents might have reacted the same way she did, while you might not feel the same.

Stick to strong keys and keep it on 22 for ease of use

No - ssh is very easy to secure, while an exposed web-service is very hard to secure.
Theres no difference in the security of ssh without password and for example WireGuard.

It can be done with guns or it can be done without. Can is the magic word here, and guns are optional.

Oisteink , 10 days ago to Selfhosted in Is it practically impossible for a newcomer selfhost without using centralised services, and get DDOSed or hacked?

A reverse proxy is used to expose services that don't run on exposed hosts.
It does not add security but it keeps you from adding attack vectors.

They usually provide load balancing too, also not a security feature.

Edit: in other words what he’s saying is true and equal to “raid isn't baclup”

All reverse proxies i have used do rudimentary DDoS protection: rate limiting. Enough to keep your local script kiddy at bay - but not advanced stuff.

You can protect your ssh instance with rate limiting too but you'll likely do this in the firewall and not the proxy.

Oisteink , 14 days ago to Selfhosted in Anyone self hosting on Mac mini M1/M2?

IMO venturing out in the unknown using fringe case hardware/software is a hobby by itself. It’s my 2nd hobby besides self hosting. Being more about experimenting than stability and ease of use, it’s not compatible with self hosting so I keep them separate

They claimed to use the same protections as others. Is there a more accurate article about how their lending was faulty?

No - they haven’t

It’s a great way to remind people of the disaster ahead, and force people to mention it. Even if in a bad tone, they still have to remind themselves that it exists .

Oisteink , 16 days ago to Selfhosted in A guide to passing GPUs through to Proxmox, XCP-ng VMs

I still dont understand broadcom’s move except for short term profits.
All the kids used to use it, and now they’re on proxmox.

I work in public sector and we’re transitioning away from VMware now, as the people we recruit know proxmox and not VMware.

Just like adobe lets the kids get away with pirating - as that builds following - VMware was giving away single-seat.
