If you care about bios, you're doing it wrong - new accounts use uefi.

Doer of things, sometimes.
Boosts things if they are generally interesting, since fediverse discoverability sucks.
I'm probably not upset about what you're creating - only about what you're destroying to make room.

mastodon.social is blocked due to the admins supporting antisemitism and the instance containing high levels of antisemitic spam as a result. Use a different instance.

go on, show us the threatening email

@ReverseModule @linux the main feature of Bandcamp is that you can sell music. Selling anything from your own website requires a lot of red tape. That's why these websites exist to get economies of scale on the red tape.

@Tekchip @AndrewZen And the protocol is a million times more complicated and doesn't always work reliably and requires a lot more server resources.

@acastcandream @Neato You do not have to treat people with respect who do not treat others with respect. You do not have to advocate for civil rights for people who advocate for taking away civil rights. You do not have to tolerate intolerance. Tolerating intolerance makes society intolerant.

@hiddengoat @original_reader @walden "I'm too fucking lazy to spend less time making something that also takes less time for my consumers to consume and uses less bandwidth and is more accessible to deaf and blind people"

@Rapidcreek @theangriestbird i saw some numbers somewhere that the majority of them would rather have Hamas than no defense against Israel, but they'd rather have someone else than Hamas.

@RagingNerdoholic @BraBraBra because what they are looking at to determine profitability isn't actual profitability. They have certain metrics and they are making those metrics as high as possible. One might be, for example, ads served per page view.

@mfat @linux "We" means Ubuntu. I can still do this.

@mrbubblesort @gsa32 no, but they'd have to answer with whatever they do have, which is your email address and IP addresses

do you understand what port forwarding is for?

edit: basically, one of two ends of a connection has to have port forwarding, or else the connection can't happen at all.

@TCB13 @linux Everything is systemd in the future. This has nothing to do with systemd. It could as well have been called targetdiskd.

@saplyng @OsrsNeedsF2P It's just Oracle trying to get more Oracle customers as usual.

@starstough @LoafyLemon @alfagun74 this naming thing reminds me again of DeepCreamPy, which was a version of Deep Dream (written in Python) that fills in gaps in hentai

@online @selfhosted I have to say this is the first time I've ever seen anyone ask this

@anthoniix @Recant @hedge I've come to the conclusion that there are no particular rules that can prevent fascism. All that can be done is to continuously fight in whatever way is possible that day.

The fascists firmly control the courts? Pack the courts. The progressives firmly control the courts? Amend the constitution to prevent court-packing. The fascists took them over again? Repeal the amendment. The rules and traditions mean nothing to fascists and they have to mean nothing to progressives as well if progressives are to win. Fascists will always change the rules to help fascists win; progressives have to do the same.

@TrinityTek@lemmy.world @selfhosted@lemmy.world Everything on your server has a URL, like https://your.server.name.example/c/your_community_name. Unless you want all the official public URLs to everything on your server to have a port number in them (https://your.server.name.example:1234/TrinityTek) you probably want to figure this out <i>before</i> deploying anything.

I suggest using vhosts. You can for example run Lemmy on port 8001 and Mastodon on port 8002 (both should be bound to 127.0.0.1 without HTTPS). Then you get two domain names pointing at the same server. Then you install nginx on your server, as your actual web server, and you configure it so requests for lemmy.trinitytek.com gets proxied to lemmy and mastodon.trinitytek.com gets proxied to mastodon

@acastcandream interacting with people does not imply tolerating them. Non-tolerance does not have to mean you instantly kick them out of any space you are in, when that would cause problems for you.

@stopthatgirl7 @politics most conservative gun nuts are itching for reasons to pull the trigger and get away with it

@stopthatgirl7 @politics It will be ruled constitutional because that is what is convenient for Republicans, who have seized power.

@TCB13 services aren't systemd-related just because they are launched by systemd.

@Semi-Hemi-Demigod @Diabolo96 @CowsLookLikeMaps @IsoKiero the power supply was off, but the network connections, power supply and cooling systems were fine!

@TrinityTek vhosts also refers to the general concept. In nginx you configure multiple servers with the same listening addresses but different names.

@fafok20662 @linux Not as long as it's constrained by an open source license, but it's likely going to follow the sqlite model where you take it or leave it, with no feedback. Except it won't be as high quality and alternative-less as sqlite.

@uphillbothways @Molehill8244 The companies: "I have very little sympathy for the peasants that are complaining about the burdens of slave labour. These are orders of magnitude lower than the burdens that ending slavery would impose"

@Harry_h0udini @linux please try to explain better. How did you try to access your hard drive? What happened when you tried it?

@adespoton @TerryTPlatypus I like Social Justice Incorporated

@acastcandream The other guy says "why the fuck would I want to talk to [bigots]?" And that is a good question for you. Why the fuck would you want to? Sometimes you have to, but why would you want to?

@kratoz29 @selfhosted You cannot go much cheaper from $6 per month... there's just not that far down to go. You can save maybe another $3 per month. There's a $3.50/mo plan on Vultr. I have an OVHcloud VPS that cost $100 for 2 years but that was some special promotional deal.

I also stumbled across this one that is $3.40/month (but the $5/month is a much better deal, with 4GB of RAM) but I don't know anything about this hosting provider so it could just as well be a scam: https://bill.alexhost.com/cart/moldova/

@hoodatninja @majestictechie @vis4valentine @Kushan @charles Isn't it obvious? They want many players to have all of the content. Which is possible, because content doesn't run out if one service plays it too much.

@skullgiver @Fonz It is possible; you have to set it up yourself and you won't federate with many places.

Hosting Lemmy or Mastodon on Tor or I2P isn't hard; you just host it, and link your Tor/I2P daemon to it same as any other website. But you have to be aware you'll be cut off from the majority of other instances. You'll be running standalone.

I am not sure about Lemmy, but Pleroma supports feeding all your federation traffic through a proxy; you can use one called fedproxy to split out your I2P federation traffic through your I2P daemon, and likewise for Tor. I am not currently running this on my server. It should still work for other fedisoftware than Pleroma. https://docs.akkoma.dev/stable/configuration/i2p/

@Alexmitter @minimar The Supreme Court has just ruled that "expressive" businesses can discriminate against their customers. They did not pin down what "expressive" means.

@flambonkscious @RedCanasta And the people who made that work earn approximately 0.1% of what you pay for the work. The other 99.9% goes to shareholders. Wouldn't it make more sense to give the workers 100%, or even 10% of the normal price?

@notTheCat @linux I haven't tried this but I think a shared boot partition and one installation of grub (I suppose the version you like the most, if you have a preference). You might even want to install grub from neither and do it by hand, just to make sure they won't mess it up. About shared home: not sure. It will work - I just don't know how many little oddities there will be.

EFI partition can be deleted and re-created.

@db0 @piracy @amazing_Yasuke @kariboka that is a terrible idea if there is no specific reason for it. Anybody should be able to start up an instance and see posts on your instance - as I have done.

Here's what I have for Pleroma.

server {
server_name social.immibis.com; # this is what matches the domain name
root /var/www/social_html; # empty folder
location / {
proxy_pass http://localhost:4000;
}

# this block was from the pleroma documentation, I think. Mastodon and Lemmy might have their own recommendations. Upgrade is to enable proxying websockets. and the rest seems generally sensible for proxying.
proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
proxy_set_header Connection "upgrade";
proxy_set_header Host $http_host;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
client_max_body_size 16m;
ignore_invalid_headers off;

# when you run Certbot it will change this to 443, insert SSL configuration, and set up a redirect on port 80
listen [::]:80;
listen 80;
}

@lord-adendaloth @vikinghoarder @PersephoneDives 99% of websites don't work, and this gets another 9 every 5 years. If you use Noscript, you can selectively disable scripts.

@RomTy @ThePenguinDev if Meta can shut it down, it will. Everything good is illegal.

Piracy is best compared to riding a bus without a ticket.
