  • The AWS outage hit us during the day in Australia. I didn't notice because I run my own server, btw

  • well what’s the name for people who don't think there is a doomsday coming but feel like its not a bad idea to keep a tanks worth of petrol some canned food and a few blocks of water in the garage? I don't think the internet is going to stop anytime soon either but if it did I'd be able to access Wikipedia, watch a few movies and my security cameras and smart home would still work.

  • Either you are splitting hairs or do not understand how precarious our way of life is.

    Running out of food, water or fuel is not some hypothetical future bad thing. It happens all around the world, sometimes even in western countries.

    In Australia we had a fire at one of the gas processing plants in the 90's and the whole state was without gas (actual Liquid natural gas, for cooking and heating) for almost a month, back then literally everything was run on gas. hot water, ducted heating, ovens, many cars because it was so cheap and plentiful). It seems ridiculous considering we are one of the biggest producers in the world.

    You think you are tacking 'real' issues with your servers, but to the average user you seem just as crazy as a guy with a basement full of beans and piss jugs, screaming about the government is watching us constantly.

    But now we know that they are watching, and pushing people towards specific ideas using social media and many other things we though were just crazy talk.

    I'd have a bit more sympathy for the preppers if I was you.

  • Even if I didn't run my own DNS, the cache on the local devices would have been enough to let me access things like plex or nextcloud. Or just type the local ip in directly

  • depends what the bad thing is in your opinion, i guess.

    If you mean "losing any semblance of control over the things we need survive (digitally)" then I'd say its the same a prepping.

    You can quite comfortably exist in the digital space and access everything you need via others if you want.

    Just like you can exist in the real world, using fuel, food, power and other goods and services, supplied by others.

    Both scenarios work well right up until they don't.

  • I mean I don't agree with it but they get to set their own standards on their own TV stations.

  • Yeah but at at least they never sell information about who you have been calling!

    You've had "security though obscurity" now try "security though inability"!

  • I'm not sure why anyone would be against hard links and atomics moves (which are basically the same thing) I can't see the point of storing the files twice (once for torrent seeding and once for viewing) it saves space, it saves time.

  • That was the original reason. Ni-cad batteries develop a “memory” if they aren’t fully discharged loose capacity.

    Unfortunately the average security enthusiast is a frothing conservative but they tend to keep their politics to a few dedicated threads, they are very helpful other than that.

    If you want good performance in the dark keep your sensor size in the green on this chard

    I currently run frigate on my server and just add cameras I find with the right sensor ratio for a good price. I have a couple of older 2mp wiz nets that would have been $500-700 new that I got for $70 each that see outside at night great.
