  • How to selfhost with a VPN

    Jump

  • LOL. On the scale of risky things I've done today, visiting this guy's http website barely rates a mention.

    Someone posts about something they've learned and the best you can do is dump on them about whatever thing in order to demonstrate to everyone your superior knowledge.

    Everyone starts somewhere.

  • Trump Spotted After Widespread And Giddy Speculation He Is Secretly Dead Or Dying

    Jump

  • somewhat perhaps, but I still think most strokes are either unnoticeable or catastrophic.

    If he was effected they wouldn't let him shuffle around tripping over stairs and what not.

  • It would certainly mitigate the impact of his crimes on his many victims.

  • Nah, I think there's a pretty narrow window on the "stroke seriousness" spectrum which would allow you to be walking around but still have "stroke energy" just several days later.

  • Most Trump tariffs ruled illegal by appeals court, dealing major blow to trade policy

    Jump

  • Ok well, just going to point out the obvious here - SCOTUS has not yet heard the case, so while they may be the last stop, this issue hasn't gotten to that last stop yet.

  • Backup/Server Options - is Syncthing / Nextcloud really the go?

    Jump

  • Adding to what everyone else has already said, you want sync and backup.

    Sync to a central location and backup from there.

    For sync, you want syncthing or nextcloud. I would lean towards syncthing for media. If you had a million files in a complex folder structure and a dozen users with different access requirements and instant sync and collision protection is important then nextcloud might be the go. Otherwise syncthing is much more manageable.

    My recommendation with syncthing, which is not obvious, is to set up a single hub which each client syncs with. By default you end up with a mesh where everything is connected to everything. It's very difficult to manage with a lot of folders and devices. Turn off discovery and input the server / hub details manually.

    For backup, if you have a lot of media you want deduplication. If yesterday's backup included ABC and today's is ABCD you only want to transfer D. This is similar to an incremental backup, but the subtle difference is that with deduplication the most recent backup is the "full backup" with the "diffs" going backwards in time, allowing you to purge old backups. I like borgmatic but there are others.

    I would also consider carefully exactly what is worth backing up on what service. I don't backup movies and tv series at all.

    My final recommendation is, it's critically important to test deploying your backups regularly.

  • Trump Proves He's Alive by Complaining About 'Stupid' White House Contractors

    Jump

  • It doesn't, but we all know the rumors of his death were exaggerated.

  • Most Trump tariffs ruled illegal by appeals court, dealing major blow to trade policy

    Jump

  • The appeals court made a ruling. They said it won't apply until October 14, knowing that the Trump admin would ask SCOTUS to hear the case.

  • Most Trump tariffs ruled illegal by appeals court, dealing major blow to trade policy

    Jump

  • The context line for the article says:

    The appeals court stayed its ruling until Oct. 14, giving the Trump administration time to ask the Supreme Court to hear the case

  • Most Trump tariffs ruled illegal by appeals court, dealing major blow to trade policy

    Jump

  • Same as always. They'll just appeal and delay and keep repeating that until they get a judge that will toe the line.

  • Context: Docker bypasses all UFW firewall rules

    Jump

  • Sure but thats an angular app, and you already know how to manage its environment.

    People self host all sorts of things, with dozens of services in their home server.

    They dont need to know how to manage the environment for these services because docker "makes everything so easy".

  • Context: Docker bypasses all UFW firewall rules

    Jump

  • I dont really understand the problem with that?

    Everyone is a script kiddy outside of their specific domain.

    I may know loads about python but nothing about database management or proxies or Linux. If docker can abstract a lot of the complexities away and present a unified way you configure and manage them, where's the bad?

  • Context: Docker bypasses all UFW firewall rules

    Jump

  • Not really.

    Both docker and ufw edit iptables rules.

    If you instruct docker to expose a port, it will do so.

    If you instruct ufw to block a port, it will only do so if you haven't explicitly exposed that port in docker.

    Its a common gotcha but it's not really a shortcoming of docker.

  • Trump fires CDC Director Susan Monarez after she refused to quit in dispute with RFK Jr.

    Jump

  • I don't think it's going to be them doing the dying?

  • CDC Staff Stage Mass Walkout in Support of Officials Who Resigned in Protest | "We need congress to intervene," said one of the CDC officials who stepped down this week.

    Jump

  • All three officials came to the CDC headquarters to clear out their offices and, as they left the building on Thursday afternoon, were followed out by hundreds of workers who cheered them and thanked them for their work at the agency.

    What does this actually mean?

    They followed these guys out to the car park and then turned around and went back to their desks?

  • Meanwhile the entire "wellness" industry is applauding Kennedy et al.

    Of all the shit these guys are shovelling this vaccine stuff has the greatest potential for harm IMO.

    It's going to be a very bitter feeling when the idiocy of these measures is revealed by the body count.

  • Top Florida official says 'Alligator Alcatraz' will likely be empty within days, email shows

    Jump

  • It's just another shit show arising from the assumption that the population would not elect or support an administration which is hostile to the rule of law.

    Like the assumption is that when a judge says "hey you can't do that, scumbag" the adminstration would spend the next 10 years being embarassed and doing their best to avoid any similar faux pas.

    With this administration, it's the opposite - they knew what they were doing was illegal, and that it would be shut down when the judge got around to it, so they have several back up implementations ready to go for when the judge shuts down the first one.

  • JUST IN: Judge Temporarily Halts Kilmar Abrego Garcia’s Deportation to Uganda

  • Wait what?

    So he came back a minute ago and they tried to ship him off to Uganda?

  • I suspect you know far more about warfare generally than myself.

    I agree that the Trump administration doesn't care for small unsexy details like logistics, however I'm certain that the US army cares a great detail about it, and has the requisite knowledge, infrastructure, and culture to get it right.

    The national guard troops in LA example isn't really indicative of what would happen in a civil war. It was a temporary issue.

    Your expectation that the Blue States might win a prolonged war based on their attention to the mundane might be sensible if both sides command relatively equal air land and sea hardware. However, it seems much more likely to me that such a conflict would be fairly short lived. If one side had a majority of the armed forces line up behind them then they're the winner before you even get started really.
