  • I've seen countless of those tweaks throughout the years. You can harangue the people using them all you want, but at the end of the day they're hooked on a powerful drug. And they'll do anything to keep their supply.

  • Well anyway I enjoyed the read.

    I am only here actually because proper forums have yet to figure out federation. As soon as Discourse or Flarum or whatever figure out full federation, I'm gone (over to them).

    Specifically, I prefer chronologically sorted posts and the absence of voting systems.

  • Millennials naively assumed that the following generations would just naturally be as computer literate as they are. We're dealing with people now who think that wi-fi is internet service.

    The author of the article is specifically referring to bulletin board forums when describing forums. Link aggregators like reddit are not forums. They are comments sections.

  • I do use ClamAV. Most users just run some sort of daily scan, but this is remedial and not preventative.

    In order to truly harness clamav's potential, you need to configure clamonacc on-access scanning. It passes items off to clamd with lowered privileges and prevents file access through inotify until its realtime scan has cleared.

  • I wonder sometimes if the advice against pointing DNS records to your own residential IP amounts to a big scare. Like you say, if it's just a static page served on an up to date and minimal web server, there's less leverage for an attacker to abuse.

    I've found that ISPs too often block port 80 and 443. Did you luck out with a decent one?

  • it’s forced some of the long stagnant Telco companies to actually compete and start rolling out fiber of their own.

    The fact that they failed to do so of their own volition is reasonable grounds to continue to avoid said Telco even after they've finally deployed fiber.
