In my opinion core infrastructure like the router should not be virtualized. I want to be able to work on my proxmox server or reboot it without bringing down the whole network. And if there is a problem with my proxmox server I now have the additional headache of having the network down too and my IPKVMs don’t work.

I have been looking at Garage. Not sure if you can set certain buckets to different mount points or whatever but it does seem to be easier to setup and update which would make running two instances much less painful.

Thanks, this looks like a possible solution. I will have to dive into it to see if it will work the way I need it to.

You could probably set up a cloudflare tunnel. I forget what they call it. I think technically sending video through it is against their TOS but if just a few friends and family are using it I doubt you will hit their naughty list.

Disable passwords and use public private keys and don’t worry about it

I have a lifetime plex pass so this does not really affect me but I expect the trend of degrading experience to continue. I would have switched to Jellyfin a long time ago but I am dreading contacting everyone I share with and getting them migrated.

I have a minio instance that I use to distribute files

None currently. Wish I could afford a GPU to play with some stuff.

It’s almost certainly a pig butchering scam

I don’t have any insight into the hardware you mentioned but I wanted to say that I put opnsense onto a low powered computer a few years ago and love it. It is extremely configurable and easy to use with some pretty good documentation out there.

I got some extra room in my house too

Welcome back to the clown show everybody!

It would be nice if they stopped their support of Russia as well

I have been mostly happy with minio but the setup and update process are a bit painful so next time I find myself annoyed with it I might have to give this a shot.

I had to check if this article was from The Onion

There will always be morons that just don’t get it. It is how Q Anon went from a 4chan joke to what it is now.

Whenever people ask me to put up right wing propaganda type shit I just say I can’t find it

As long as you do not allow password logins for ssh you can let the silly idiots beat their heads against it or you could use a script to ban them. They will not brute force a properly secured ssh server.

I would be mostly annoyed about the log entries. That would be my primary motivation to ban script kiddy hack attempts.

Lemmy has the disadvantage of being opensource. In the long run this can be good for security but in the short term this gives your enemies a blueprint of your software and they know exactly how to attack you.

The only time I have every been compromised was when I was running 3rd party code open to the internet. I have been running my own code open to the internet for 20+ years and have been safe with it. I don’t think I am some kind of god coder or anything but I am mindful of best practices and most importantly I am a small fish in a big pond.

Long story short is that running popular 3rd party code open to the internet exposes you to unique threats that you should be prepared for. Subnet/vlan it, vpn it, lock it down,
