Any platform that believes it should be their choice whether the user can opt-in to any part of the fediverse, is a big no from me.

[🆕 Cosmos 0.12 - HUGE update! All in one secure Reverse-proxy, container manager with app store, integrated VPN, and authentication provider, now has a Full Monitoring suite with alerts and notifications (including presets for anti crypto miner hacks!) 📈📊 ~reddit

Usenet is paid, usually 2+ subscriptions, a Usenet/backbone provider + an indexer.

I’ve found Usenet backbone+indexer to be the same price as VPN while being significantly faster to download, no seeding required.

It allows more complicated setups like radarr+sonarr which download episodes as they come out, at around your internet speed.

I ripped out all my portable drives, had to make a cable without the energy management line for inside a PC.

Big ATX case with 8 3.5’ bays, mobo with 6 Sata ports, last two ports will require a SATA-PCIe expansion card.

1x 4TB (shucked)

2x 6TB (shucked)

1x 8TB HDD

1x 16TB Ironwolf Pro

40TB across 5 bays, 1 left without expansion card, 2 more with the card, following that the 4TB will get dropped for a bigger drive.

I’ll likely be buying no less than 12TB per drive going forward, no RAID configuration yet.

Install official version from Microsoft website.

Open PowerShell;

This authenticates Win and/or upgrades version Home/Pro

You can buy 7th Gen Intel 4-core with 16GB DDR4 & 128GB SSD for cheaper than a Raspberry Pi 4.

I have both a Pi4 & a ThinkCentre which is significantly more powerful, doesn’t take up much more space.

Hetzner VPS

He owes a lot of money to banks, etc, for the company.

Explicitly closing Twitter would make him liable for destroying other people’s equity. Accidentally destroying twitter while pretending to drastically fix it, while pretending it’s failing against his will and his taking measures to save it, is the only way to kill it without being on the hook for it.

It’s about the server access sellers, but to block a whole major VPS instead of accounts that commit the violation is kinda absurd.

It looks like another step towards further restricting what users can do with their servers, local or virtual.

The Steam Deck already has +6GB more RAM.

I use Turkey, it’s around $2.50 per month for the 6-person plan.

ThinkPads are considered the Windows/Linux equivalent of Apple laptops in business settings.

They can change course on advertised usage if they can argue that they had a genuine intention for longevity and only changed course after.

Deemix with a Deezer free trial for good quality, free is 128kbps.

It was the main introduction to email for a lot of Australians, they’ve been using it as is for 15-20 years.

It’s more than just one generation that uses it, I know people in their thirties who use theirs via the Gmail app as with any long-term email their is no need to change address.

I remember only signing up to Gmail because it felt new and techy.

One year early, so they can make a big deal about proprietary restrictions if you don’t use Apple accessories, which won’t be the case the following year with no mention.

This is the one iPhone left that they can do anything they want regarding USB-C, without being under the new law as it won’t be in place yet and won’t apply to product SKU’s that were released prior.

I use Frugal Usenet via this link and NZBGeek as my indexer for $6/6m

I agree with the diversification of ownership, it’s too large now for one couple to own outright and be in the best interest as an organisation.

It kept getting updated, assuming it’s completed you could do that.

Lenovo ThinkCentre Tiny, or another brand similar.

The pricing since the pandemic has been cheaper than Raspberry Pi4’s in my region.

I’m happy with my $5 pm for Usenet + Indexer, on top of hard drive costs.

That’s what I’m using, it barely uses more power than a pi & it’s a 64bit x86 4core with 16GB Dual Channel, 256GB SSD.

I’ve seen newer versions of what I have for cheaper than the average Pi4, I would never consider the Raspberry over this solution given how monolithically more powerful it is for how small they are.

I have Ubuntu 22.04 LTS Server without a desktop GUI and I control it on my PC via CMD with SSH user@localipaddress

I own this domain and don’t have anything better to use it for, so it’s a shorter link to the above mentioned community indexer.

Any video I watch I have to consider if I want to be pushed more of it and delete from history whenever I look at something I don’t want more of.

It’s an annoying tightrope, I have considered no history but then I wouldn’t get more of what I do want. This new change is to make turning off watch history worse, to no longer suggest any videos if you want privacy.

I do want to move closer and closer to completely selfhosted for anything possible, but the knowledge required seems to never end, so I settle for things like Cloudflare Zero Trust to fill in the gaps.

How do you feel about Cloudflare Zero Trust?

Are you sure you don’t want to X about something on X?

I’ll look at those, do you suggest selfhosting webpages over something like GitHub?

I know HTML, I’ve known basic HTML since the 90’s, I’ve just been looking for an application to make something that is above my low level skills.

What application did you use for the server page?

He actually said they are now called X’s.

I think stupidity is more complex and contextual, one can both be smart and dumb AF at the same time, the duality of dumb.

X.com is his product he owned, that is loosely associated with PayPal’s success despite it having nothing to do with the tech that it was merged for.

By “absorbing” twitter with his original X company that is older than twitter, he can pretend to be the founder of the parent company X, like he pretends to be the founder of Tesla.

Does CloudFlares HTTPS resolve that issue?

I was only flagged as phishing, with full SSL certs etc

I just had to change my domain name because Google wouldn’t stop blocking my personal server webpage for being a “phishing” website, there was no way it could be interpreted in that way at all and it didn’t matter, my personal server apps were basically blocked on 80% of browsers.

Even just the fourth story, Loyalty is what I am mainly after.

The next step is for the ad-tier to go to $7.99, $8.99, $9.99

The strategy was always to make the ad-free options more valuable by comparison.

In no more than 36 months, the ad-tier will cost the $9.99 it was intended to replace, making Netflix having successfully added ads to the base tier, for no discount.

Thanks for the link, I had been trying for a while and one of my domains doesn’t even work now after I changed too many DNS records.
