A genuine depiction of "Plague Sapiens": a distinct form of human evolution, entirely erased from memory until it resurfaced from the infernal depths of space.

  • Fueled by artificial intelligence

Some years ago, being a linux noob, I have created a VM to setup aBitcoin Lightning node. The blockchain is huge and my idea was to passthrough a 2 TB (/dev/sdc). Had to restart my homeserver because of some hoste settings I've changed. Didn't see that sdc changed to sda and sdb (8TB fully encrpyted drive with my smb shares on it(seperate VM) to sdc. So far no problem. Because I didnt't knew that the device names changed, I started the initilization process which formats the passthrouged HDD. Oh boy, when I heared the 8TB HDD spin up and doing it's thing, the 2 TB HDD was still in spin-down, I panicked and shut down the server. End of story, 8 TB data was unrecoverable (lost all of my photos since I was a kid (~100k), lots of redownloadable stuff, gladly everything sensitive was backuped, like private seeds, work stuff, docuements, ...) Never use /dev/sdX device paths, use UUIDs. They exist for a reason.

I think there's lot less potential abuse, if you control your tracker and the peers. If I remember correctly, you usually have to seed till a specific ratio is reached. I doubt that any copyright-infringment-abuse-company tries to get acces to those trackers, if they have to upload stuff at first.

Why is AI allowed to do that and when I'm driving on shrooms I'll loose my license. Seems unfair to me. Hallucinogens for everyone!

Buy a cheap VPS, setup a Wireguard or OpenVPN server (wg-easy is quite nice). Then something like Nginx Proxy Manager or plain nginx and expose your services over that.

Edit: if you need help, hit me up, love sharing my knowledge

Windows should never be trusted in the first place. Fuck proprietary software...

Not a good idea, to share copyrighted material with your university account. Especially in DE. Archive.org would suit better!

Nevertheless thanks for your work and I would recommend to include Dism++ and maybe use an Enterprise version of Win11. But yeah, versions can be easily changed with Massgravel's activator.

Not a tracker but golden: https://libgen.rs/ Online/Proxy checker: https://libgen.onl/

I think we alread know, that Temu is fraudulent. They pay 30 bucks for every order out ouf their hand. The app itself is malicious and should be able to execute any command from the Temu servers. The German news website heise.de had an article about that.

Have you tried jDownloader? If normal link search doesn't work, try the deep search (or get into the websites source code and search for the media file and input that into jDownloader).

That's why I have abandoned private trackers. I only use public ones with a seed ratio of 2, because I like giving back. Everything else is downloaded with Real-Debrid and jDownloader2 (mostly OCHs or sometimes torrents, when there aren't much/any seeders and the speed is unacceptably slow).

Bots, lots of bots xD

NordVPN being trash xD Not only because of that. Complying with the law is a ok. I just hate their whole vpn and security propaganda. Like, you will be hacked without us... And they have been hacked, if I remember correctly it was twice...

There are better commercial VPN providers.

Sadly ovpn.to went down some time ago. Cheap, secure and Mr. Nice was really nice and helpful. He probably died -.-

Not it's Red Star OS!!!!! Looks like you don't like communist leadership! To the gulag with him!

VPN and you are fine lol. Sometimes you have to pay even for illegal stuff... Nothing's free...

Federated instances could be counted. Non-federated like govermental or company ones can't. So yeah, I would say 3.

Get a Google Pixel and install GrapheneOS. First Smartphone/OS combo I really enjoy, mostly because this device is fucking secure. I just can't bare non-updatabe CFWs, long forgotten branded roms and Google services...

Usually less bloat ootb and less/no feature updates, longer update support. But actually I haven't compared those Win11 versions by myself. I use Enterprise versions since Win7, with Win10 Iot Enterprise LTSC being the best version of all (at least currently) and it has support till 2032 :)

Wise words!

Kohl's copper buddy. Fuck lobbyism, it only makes the riches richer. Doesn't help everyone else...

Cries in 0,1 Gbit/s cause DE sucks ass. Won't get fibre for years, but hey at least 100m away the municipality has fibre and the schools 1km away will get connected next year. They just put the cables around my street.

This. You can create two seperate networks for the nginx instance (I would recommend NPM (nginx proxy manager)) and use one each for connecting from the lemmy instances to the reverse proxy. Traefik is nice too, that was my first rp used for docker and it integrates quite nicely to the docker environment :)

That's why everyone should use GrapheneOS. Sandboxed GooglePlay services can be used, if needed. I personally use 3 proprietary apps, one of them is WhatsApp Business (self-employed and for stupid dipshits that won't use anything else...), which is more privacy-friendly than the personal client itself. Join the resistance! Use GrapheneOS :)

Good read about push notifications on GOS: https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/9407-this-is-why-i-use-grapheneos

Has some1 tested this under Wine/Proton yet? I love community remakes! ManicMiner (Lego Rock Raiders remake) and OpenTyrian being one of my favourites. So many childhood memories of the 90ies gaming era coming back with stuff like this.

Do you know some more hidden remake gems?

For a small pocket and low power consumption but incredible performance I would recommend the Odroid M1. Add a cheap nvme drive for the os (I prefer debian) and a 2,5" hdd. On top of debian you can install OMV for a webui based linux home server control. DietPi is nice for beginners too. And like other ppl already said, you can use docker/podman for running your software.

Oh and don't forget the 3-2-1 backup rule. 3 Backups, 2 different media types (ssd, hdd, usb stick, cloud, ...) and 1 offsite backup (cloud or hdd at your friend's house).

Use sth like sideshift.ai to pay with any crypto. And don't use NordVPN!

LineageOS or CalyxOS. But Pixels are ass cheap. Bought a used 4a for 150 bucks.

U can recover everything.

Charging speed no, only if bugged, but had no huge problems with GrapheneOS yet. Doubt there will be, cause their work is godlike.

Check your mouse cursor by moving fastly left to right and back and again. With 60 Hz you'll see 5-6 cursor renders (depending on your distance obviously) and with 100 Hz it should be double that. 144hz a lot more cursor renders appear. White cursor, black background or inverted for better visibility. Thats my fast check to see if the settings are correctly set.

Cheapest shower gel I can find, cause none of the smell remains on my body (long and hot showers help against my infuriating back pain better than most painkillers). Nivea roll-on (without Al-salts).

Why not use sth that is based on OpenWeather? Weather from FDroid comes to my mind. For Windows idk. You can find some Gnome Extensions for Gnome (Linux DE) which can use OpenWeather too.

Netcup is my favourite hoster in the EU, but I live in DE. 2€/m for 2c, 2/4gb ram, lots of traffic. They have coupons from time to time or xmas/easter/... deals. The whole front- and backend works like a charm too. Upload your own isos/qcow images, download backups, KVM is awesomely implemented too. Sadly they don't take crypto and you need a call verification or id via mail for your first purchase (understandable as a german hoster), besides that just wonderful :)

Yeah, now that you say it. Sadly we must wait till 2025...

More open source hardware would be epic, but imo this trend will take years to grow if it even will succeed. Most people just don't care about their privacy at all and with hw and sw being open, there's less money to be earned because of easier plagiarism.

This could be the I/O overhead caused by docker while using NAT networking: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21889053/what-is-the-runtime-performance-cost-of-a-docker-container#26149994

Even switching versions is super convenient now.

That and permissions are likely the main problem, dependencies are likely the next xD

Oh, that Info isn't on their github page. Thanks for clarifying :)
