I don't have an alt account yet but my blocklist is about 50+ communities long now, so much porn already when you sort by new on all.

i didnt have a problem with network ports (I use a switch) what I shouldve considered during purchasing was the number of drives (sata ports), pcie features (bifurcation, version, number of nvme slots)
I need to do high IOPs for my research now and I am stuck with raid0 commodity SSDs in 3 ports.
Depends on what kind of service the malicious requests are hitting.
Fail2ban can be used for a wide range of services.
I don't have a public facing service (except for a honeypot), but I've used fail2ban before on public ssh/webauth/openvpn endpoint.
For a blog, you might be well served by a WAF, I've used modsec before, not sure if there's anything that's newer.
Fuckin beautiful
How did you get started?
I'd check high I/O wait, specially if your all of the vms are on HDDs.
one of the solution I had for this issue was to have multiple DNS servers. solved it by buying a raspberry pi zero w and running a 2nd small instance of pihole there. I made sure that the piZeroW is plugged on a separate circuit in my home.
Thanks for this visual. I'd extend the question to:
Will facebook be able to create dummy instances that would federate with the large/established instances and take our information?
I know fuck all about this.
I should've been more clear about my question, how would I, as a lemmy user, know if an instance has gone rogue (taken over by another entity, meta/fb/ig).
My actual worry is about an instance stealthily created by meat/fb/ig that is not identified as a threads instance/service. Say you have deferedated the fuck out of all known identified Meta created instance so they cant push trash content, then as an example:
an instance owner gets bribed and creates another instance to federate with established instances and gives control of it to FB. At this point fb/ig/meta know they'd just be kicked out again if they even peeped that they now own the inatance.
What is the trust model between instances, where/when does it break?
if the instance that meta now owns doesn't push out threads-content, they still have access to our data and I'll just be unaware of it and next thing we know we getting profiled from what we post in our private instances.
Edit: **this will make your oci instance less secure **and will break integrations with other oci services. Do not use this in production, but ONLY for testing if the host fw rules affect your app.
I'm currently using oraclecloud for my bots. I work in the space (cloud/systems engg) and the first thing that got me was that the oracle ubuntu instances have custom iptables in place for security.
I'm not sure if it still has, but last i checked a year ago I had to flush iptables before I was able to use other ports. I didint really want to deal with another layer of security to manage as I was just using the arm servers for my hobby.
It might be something worth checking, it isn't specific to lemmy though.
I found it unintuitive because other major cloud providers do not have any host firewall/security in place (making it easier to manage security using SG/NACL, through the console).
I'd make my own nas.
As for me this is what I can't follow too, i understand that fackbook cant be trusted, and the federation is based on trust between instance admins to not do something fuckey.
So our data and rights (my country was victim of CA) are unsafe when federated with threads, these are what people are saying.
what is stopping facebook from creating a dummy instance, not disclose it is theirs, and federate with the instances that rejected the known threads instances?
hypervisor: proxmox
vms: rhel 9.2
I use connect for lemmy on android
ex-IT? what do you do now?
I heard so many stories about school IT, I've never been on one though. the most baffling thing I heard from coworkers that came from usual office IT and moved to school IT was that there was no respect for the profession and the amount of entitlement from users are really un imaginable.
Maybe she gets fiber from the dog.

This is what I'm doing since the elsagate scandal, and a recent one where there was an ad of an obese dude jacking off (I'm in the middle east, this happened about 6 months ago).
I just automate the downloads of new youtube videos and let use jellyfin to watch it.
I don’t use youtube much, but I had to selfhost because the youtube kids app is fucking nasty. I have my pihole block youtube domains for my kid's device (firewall does captive dns/redirection of all dns requests to pihole).
My child likes dr binocs and brave wilderness.
The job security.
lemme know if you need some tshooting remotely, if schedules permit, we can do screenshares
Fuckin hell dude. Also, I found the names weird - Elephant butte, truth and consequences.
Shit and vomit inducing wiki for me was rose west's wiki:
hey yeah, no stress!
just lemme know if you'd want someone to brainstorm with.
what kind of thumbnails are you seeing?
I see a good lookin guy pointing at a Black box.
Thanks you!
That's the setup when I started.
I picked up an x230 with a broken screen and used it as a hypervisor (proxmox 5.4).
I used whatever resources available to me at the time and learned weird networking (passing through nics for a router on a stick configuration).
I used that x230 until the mobo gave up.
I'm running a PBS instance (plus networking containers) for 4years now, cc on file for the first 2 years, now on file, but my usecase is operating within the free-forever tier.
My instance has not been deleted by them, though I've rebuilt the multiple times since.
The region you are on might be struggling with capacity issues, I use middle east region and never encountered account/vm deletions (yet). For my case, latency isnt an issue so i dont mind having it ona far away region.
It seems to be an expensive hobby based on my initial searches in amazon. high barrier to entry but I think I can make it work in 2 years.
I do self hosting/de-googling/homelab but my daughter is too young to be involved in it, I think astrophotography would be a good thing for us.
I fell in love with the thought of seeing things beyond, my daughter loves learning about satellites and space trash (I'm not sure why exactly).
Thank you!
I had this issue when I used kubernetes, sata SSDs cant keep up, not sure what Evo 980 is and what it is rated for but I would suggest shutting down all container IO and do a benchmark using fio.
my current setup is using proxmox, rusts configured in raid5 on a NAS, jellyfin container.
all jf container transcoding and cache is dumped on a wd750 nvme, while all media are store on the NAS (max. BW is 150MBps)
you can monitor the IO using IOstat once you've done a benchmark.
I agree with this, what I suggested is not a best practice, I should preface my post with that.
And I feel your pain! I get calls that are extremes, like people putting too much security where the ticket is "P1 everything is down, fly every engineer here" for an nACL/SG they created.
The other extreme is that deliberate exposure of services to the public internet (other service providers send us an email and ask us to do something about it, but not our monkeys, shared responsibility, etc).
I got this step, defederating essentially says to them that I dont consent to them getting my data.
But I'm really missing something here, since any instance that zucc controls that is federated to the large instances just exposes my data to zucc.
Defederating is one step, the instance owners have taken that step now, so far so good, well then zucc will just create a lemmy/kbin instance that they own, they join the fed and not even announce meta's affiliation with it, my data is still zucc'ed.
