You don’t need to put the server in the DMZ, just port forward port 80 and 443. Most routers these days ignore all requests to ports that aren’t open. And stick it behind Cloudflare, so you don’t have to expose your IP. Cloudflare also allows you to generate SSL certs that are good for a decade.

Nice. Crypto miners disguised as anti-AI.

I’m not using it. I’m a pirate, why would I pay some corp for the privilege? That’s just stupid.

Pay even more money for the inferior product. Good advice.

Yeah, my lifetime Jellyfin subscription wasn’t quite that much, thankfully. 😆

Let’s put it this way, I’m hosting about 30 Docker containers including a full Servarr stack, Jellyfin, and Mastodon on an old Dell workstation intended for office work.

• I like Unraid myself. It has some handy features, like being able to simulate the data on failed drives until you can bring the system down to replace them.
• Install the Servarr apps and set them up according to the TRaSH guides.
• Sure, why wouldn’t it? It’s more than capable of handling it.
• IDK, I use Unraid, so my system isn’t a traditional RAID, hence the name.

That’s a wonderful idea. Wish I had done that when I first started. I know the basic process behind recovering from hardware failures on my NAS, but I’ve never actually gotten any practical experience in doing it, which will probably increase my downtime when it inevitably happens.

what the fuck are you even talking about?

it may be like that in the “third world”, but in western countries at least, if you don’t have a cell phone you are pretty much actively discriminated against. many government programs, not to mention utilities, require the use of a smartphone app. for example, my electric company requires one, as does my internet company. you can’t even begin service with my ISP if you don’t have an app.

if you live in the US, you’ll find it very difficult to even find a job without a cell phone, as most unemployment programs or job listings are done through apps these days. so the first thing any homeless person needs to acquire, is internet access and social media.

I see a lot of people asking for mutual aid, and it’s often “I’ve had a hard day and just want some McDonalds, please help”

OK, that’s not mutual aid, and you shouldn’t be asking for that under that hashtag. if you need help paying your rent, or with gas money so you don’t lose your job, that’s something that appropriate for mutual aid. asking for money for vices should be something you do off the hashtag, or on your OF or something. mutual aid is for people helping where they can, when they can, for problems that are serious and life-altering. and nothing else.

whatever country you live in, it’s already better than the US.

I got one about an hour after I made my Mastodon account. found me pretty fucking fast.

depends on how often you have to use it. also, most states won’t give you insurance if you aren’t below the poverty level. if you have a full-time job, even if you’re barely making it paycheck to paycheck, you’re probably ineligible for medicaid.

That’s an odd thing to see these days. I didn’t know ISPs still did that. I bet they offer a more expensive tier for businesses is why.

Literally anything you want. You don’t need a static IP, any dynamic IP with a software updater will work. For example, I have some public sites proxied through Cloudflare, and I use the DDNS updater for Docker that keeps my DNS correct.

If you had read the OP, they don’t want the scrapers using up all their traffic.

If you’re looking to stop them from wasting your traffic, do not use a tarpit. The whole point of it is that it makes the scraper get stuck on your server forever. That means you pay for the traffic the scraper uses, and it will continually rack up those charges until the people running it wise up and ban your server. The question you gotta ask yourself is, who has more money, you or the massive AI corp?

Tarpits are the dumbest bit of anti-AI tech to come out yet.

Yes, that’s exactly what it is. Some TVs can’t handle DV. There’s nothing you can do about it either, other than avoid anything with it.

No, that issue can happen on Jellyfin as well, because it’s happened to me. But that was before I used the Trash guides to set up Sonarr/Radarr so that Dolby Vision files were never fetched.
