  • This is my main reason for not using them. I have two Pihole servers running gravity sync, unbound and wireguard on each and VPN my phone back home for self hosted DNS resolution and ad blocking.

  • Any combo modem router is typically trash and you NEED separate modem because if you get a combo you will be in the same situation. They will flash the combo unit with the same firmware wether you own it or not.

    You will want an aris modem from there approved list and a good wireless router. When you swap out your modem you will need to call in so they can flash it with thier firmware (which is fine). You can then configure your router as needed.

    I can't recommend a wireless router because I have a Unifi household and have been out of the consumer space for a while. I hear netgear nighthawk are still creame of the crop though.

  • The double-wide might already have nuts on it!

  • Have they asked the engine how they can generate more revenue?

  • My nephew whom is mainly an FPS player and said that BG3 was not for him has recently picked it up and is loving multiplayer with his friends.

    As a previous player of the BG series and others like it, BG3 is a far cry from any of its predecessors. I'm not stating your opinion isn't fair, but wanted to also give another account of players that don't consider this their type of game and are surprised to like it.

  • I see them as one in the same. You put bait on a hook in fishing, both to lure in your catch. It's just a new term for the internet age.

  • Because everyone in the game is making money off those trackers. Just because you give them your address and general interests doesn't mean they know you're shopping for a new fence for your house or different daycares for your kids at a specific given time.

  • I have Nextcloud hosted internally in a podman container environment. To answer some of your more security related questions, here's how I have my environment set up:

    1. Cloudflare free tier with my own domain to proxy outside connections to the public domain name, and hide my external IP.
    2. A DMZ proxy server with a local traefik container with only ports required to talk to the internal Nextcloud server allowed, and inbound 443 only allowed from the internet (cloudflare).
    3. An Authelia container tied to the Nextcloud container using "Two-factor TOTP" app addon. Authelia is configured to point to a free DUO account for MFA. The TOTP addon also allows other methods of you want to bypass Authelia and use a simply Google auth or other app. I'll be honest, this setup was a pain but it works beautifully when finally working.

    Note: Using Authelia removes Nextcloud from the authentication process. If you login through Authelia, if set up correctly it will pass the user information to Nextcloud and present thier account. There is a way to have "quadruple" authentication of you really want it, where you log in through Authelia, Authelia MFA, then Nextcloud and Nextcloud MFA, but who would want that? Lol.

    Another Note: If Authelia goes down for whatever reason, you can still log in through Nextcloud directly.

    1. I have all of my containers set to automatically pull updates with the latest tag. This bites me sometimes of major changes happen, but it's typically due to traefik or mariadb changes and not Nextcloud or Authelia.
    2. I have my host operating system set to auto update and reboot once a week in the early morning.
    3. My data is shared through an NFS connection from my NAS that only allows specific IPs to connect. I'd like to say I'm using least privileged permissions in the share, but it's a wide open share as my NFS permissions are not my strong suite.

    Hope the above helps!

  • Then the article title should be less click bait termed and properly address that there's a major firmware fault in the drives.

    Journalism is lost on generating clicks and user turmoil rather than servicing the public in any way.

  • It's very convenient that the Republicans in rule decide to bring this up right now given the fact that the state collected enough ballot signatures to have abortion rights on the ballot for November. This is specifically a power grab to go AGAINST the will of the populace, and they've been brazen enough to even admit it is the reason for the special election.

    This is the same party that had their maps ruled unconstitutional for the 2020 election and ignored the court order for a redraw, and have still not redrawn the maps for the state.

    The reason is not for "fairness" but for keeping thier decisions in check and not giving the populace their fair vote. Why shouldn't a simple majority be able to change the rules that govern them?

  • There's a mobile version on Android with online functionality now too

  • I remember Scorched Earth from the DOS, Win95 days that this was based on. The tanks would hurl slurs at each other before shooting and I recall a similar purchasing system that you mention as well.

  • The problem with that paper as I understand it is that the writer was recently outed for making many false claims in his research.

  • If I could go a day without seeing this exact post over and over, I would be soooo happy.

  • Microsoft is pushing me towards Linux for my next OS. I've yet to make the jump due to time constraints, but I use many Linux OS in my homelab. I'd lose some functionality I'm used to with Windows but at this point the minor inconvenience it'd have outweighs the issues I'm having with thier forced decisions on their consumer base.

  • On kbin, OP replies are indicated by a dotted red line next to their post. There are other colors for replies as well but I'm not sure what dictates them.

  • Your spoiler didn't work when viewing on kbin but his proper use of code framing for this purpose did work on kbin.

  • Guess it's time to migrate my VM servers to a different distro entirely.
