  • LG TVs and monitors said to surveil users and install bloatware without asking

    Jump

  • I can't remember the specifics right now, but in Gamers Nexus video from yesterday, according to LG ToS you must disclose something regarding spying and wiretapping laws to your family and anyone visiting your house

  • Privacy respecting registrars

  • I live in the US and they asked me for id when I tried to sign up a couple months ago

  • So if I am understanding this correctly, Steam Proton games such as Marvel Rivals and Dead By Daylight CAN spy on you?

  • Supported kernel level anti-cheat (EAC and Battleye) are not actually kernel level under proton on Linux. They run only in userspace, which makes them less "effective" than on Windows. However, you said yourself that wine are proton are not designed to be secure, and while I'm far from a professional who can point to anything specific, I'm sure that there's still plenty of non-kernel-level info that they're able to suck up and send back.

  • Recommendations for music-setup?

    Jump

  • For a navidrome Android client, I use Symfonium, but it's a paid Play Store exclusive. If you want FOSS, I've tried Tempus and it seems fine, the only reason I don't use it is because I already paid for Symfonium

    I use slskd (docker container for soulseek) to download music and Lidarr to automatically move it to an organized folder structure. Lidarr doesn't natively connect to slskd, so you have to use an extension (which I forget the name of atm) to get them to work together. No part of this assumes that music has any metadata or that you want it, but Lidarr can be setup to automatically retag imported downloads with metadata from musicbrainz. I don't do this, I prefer manually retagging with Picard

    I don't know what your experience with self hosting is, but I will say that I don't think setting up a navidrome server is any more difficult than setting up a jellyfin server for shows and movies. Maintainability is pretty easy, just make sure that everything is updated every once in a while and you should be fine

  • looking to build a mid range pc for under $500 usd

    Jump

  • If you can find a good deal, the 1080ti the other guy mentioned would do you good. If not, the 1660ti (or 5600xt if you prefer AMD) go for not much more than the 580

  • looking to build a mid range pc for under $500 usd

    Jump

  • I quickly threw together a full parts list. The RX 580 is not actually $250, one can easily be found for $50-$100 on eBay, bringing the total price down to $475. It's certainly not ideal performance, but $500 doesn't go as far as it used in this RAM and SSD market. You might knock the RAM down to 8gb or the SSD down to 512 if you still need room in the budget for a monitor and peripherals

  • Proton has respond on reddit

    Jump

  • For a VPN? I use AirVPN but I think Mullvad and IVPN are generally considered best in class for privacy, all of which get down to $5/month depending on the plan you choose.

    For password manager I use Bitwarden, but they went through their own controversy a couple weeks ago, so.

    This is malicious

  • FML it's the worst time to get into a high end PC, but...

    Jump

  • I think I mostly agree with the things everyone else is saying here. The only thing I'd change from your PCPartPicker list is to bump the CPU down to a 9800x3d and upgrade the GPU to a 9070xt

    I see you have some questions about PSU. Here's the PSU tier list. For the level of machine you're aiming for I would only recommend A tier. For wattage, take the expected wattage from PCPartPicker and add a couple hundred. With the changes I suggested that's a minimum of 750w for you, but I think I wouldn't go lower than 850w

  • The 7950x3d is AM5. I would double check all your system specs if I were you

  • Android adds a feature to stop you from doomscrolling

    Jump

  • it could potentially be abused by work, carriers, governments, malware, etc. to control what you can and can't easily do

    It's a feature, not a bug

  • What's Debian going to name their releases after when they run out of Toy Story characters?

  • Too late. Forky is already the name for Debian 14

    Registrar recommendation?

  • Looking for information on setting up a VPS to forward traffic

    Jump

  • I just recently set this up for myself. I used Racknerd (they have crazy deals you can find on racknerdtracker which, to my understanding, work because any unclaimed deals they've ever offered don't expire). If you're only using it as an access point for stuff you're hosting at home, you can get a cheap 1 core kvm with appropriate speed and data limits, and connect with wireguard (or as other people have said, pangolin or similar services)

  • Did you mean to say you recommend against exposing services?

  • Is *arr stack a real Netflix replacement?

    Jump

  • I don't have any links on hand, but there a post either in this community or !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com that explains how to setup a full arr stack in docker. I'll see if I can find it in the morning.

    Here's a quick and dirty explanation for your other questions. Sonarr and radarr manage your media. Sonarr handles TV, radarr handles movies. That is the only difference. Without a download client (e.g. qBittorrent) they don't do anything. Jellyfin is how the downloaded (qBittorrent) and managed (*arrs) media gets played on your screen.

    I'm foggy on the details, but jellyfin has specific vulnerabilities that make it not recommended to expose publicly. If you must watch remotely, set up a VPN. If you don't to manually setup wireguard you can use tailscale, which itself uses wireguard, but it does the hard part for you

  • Don't worry I intend to. I'm probably gonna take it back it to that shop and see if it miraculously still works there, and if it does, stress test it this time. The fact that the RGB and fans turn on is still a good sign at least
