  • VPN Tradeoffs

  • If you have a public IP just use wire guard. If you don't have a public IP, rent a cheap VPS and use that as entry point, setting up one wire guard from home to the vps, and the other from your phone to the vps.

  • Hosting a matrix server with synapse, how do you handle registration?

    Jump

  • Don't get me wrong, you are a bit patronizing.

    I was only giving a suggestion based on my personal experience, I don't feel obliged to respond directly to their question, as well I do not expect OP must go to a synapse forum, any question is always welcome.

    I think OP was looking for fellow lemmiters experience on matrix and the topic, so I felt like giving my experience.

    I was a bit brief yes, but not out of line, oli think.

    Your comment was correct, just a bit patronizing.

  • I don't use synapse so I cannot directly answer the question. But this is not the support forum for Synapse either, so I think proposing a different approach could be of benefit for the community ...

  • Use Continuwuity instead of synapse... Faster and much less resource hungry

  • I wonder if the big AI companies train their public AI models on their internal code or feel protective of their IP and keep it to themselves.

    Jump

  • Pretty sure they don't train models on their own code as they don't want to make their own intellectual property public. As well, they don't vibe code ..

  • First VPS — Is 54 SSH bans in 12 hours normal?

    Jump

  • Yes, I meant ssh private/public keys, not certificates ...

    And changing the port reduces the amount of attempts in any case.

  • First VPS — Is 54 SSH bans in 12 hours normal?

    Jump

  • Yeah. Sounds about right.

    First of all disable root login over ssh. Second, move your ssh from port 22 to another port of your liking. Third, disable password authentication altogether and use only solid certificates.

  • Given dogs' propensity for sniffing other animals' buttholes and piles of other animals' shit, do their noses and sinuses have specialised bacteria/antibodies that protect them infection?

    Jump

  • Smell my dogs after they rolled on some cow poop... I assure you will get sick as in vomit.... (Obviously /s)

    Jump

  • Not really. You can get sick by just sniff at a distance aerosol of dry mice poop (hantavitus, that's how I spreads ..)

    So yes, you can get sick by sniffing.

  • If they actually go trough this, it will be interesting to watch.

  • Unexplained Hurdles when compiling the linux kernel for arm cpus

    Jump

  • Look into the Gentoo Arm handbook... Since Gentoo builds everything from sources, you should find good pointers for the kernel that should be applicable to other sisters as well

  • Router recs please :)

    Jump

  • Anything that supports OpenWRT I would say....

    Or even better buy a mini PC with many net ports and install opnSense, but in this case you will need a separate wifi router and/or dedicated switch since any opnSense device will only work at perimeter level

  • Just watched DJANGO UNCHAINED got me wondering did they use the N word back then? Or how far back does the N word go? When was it attached to black people?

    Jump

  • Let's be clear: I don't go around calling people names, whether it's their color, religion, sexual identification or else.

    Do you get that I am talking about the word itself and censorship? Especially in games and online platforms, this is the thread reasoning.

    And you didn't spend a single word discussing the point I am making, you are blinded by the word, at least this is what I get from your replies.

    Jump

  • We could have a discussion and maybe I would change my idea, I am open to that even now.

    Just to be clear, I have black friends that use that word quite often. Again, it's a word, they can and you or me can't?

    I don't take responsibility for your ancestors (my ancestors are not linked to slavery by the way) nor I feel guilty because of the color of my skin, but only for my actions. I might indeed have been racist, involuntarily, as I am far for perfect.

    Still, I don't see reason to censor a word. Censor the person that uses it to express racist opinions or support racist behaviour.

  • Of course they used the word negro (black) because of the skin color, my point is that the word means a color, it's how the word has gained the bad meaning that means you cannot use it freely.

    A word is a word, censoring it avulsed from context make no sense, it's brain stupid. Better use it to underline that the concept it express is wrong and must be fought hard at all levels. Racism is wrong, zero tolerance on that, but just don't be ashamed of words themselves.
