I am currently watching several malicious crawlers be stuck in a 404 hole I created. Check it out yourself at https://drkt.eu/asdfasd
I respond to all 404s with a 200 and then serve them that page full of juicy bot targets. A lot of bots can’t get out of it and I’m hoping that the driveby bots that look for login pages simply mark it (because it responded with 200 instead of 404) so a real human has to go and check and waste their time.
The point of having the RSS reader somewhere not on my PC is that when I reinstall my PC it’s one less thing to configure again. I just open the browser bookmark and there it is exactly as I left it.
Yeah same, I was reading the script very confused
such as TerraMaster
The reputable brand that quietly updated my device in the middle of the night and reset my password to a randomly generated one, locking me out of the device? That brand? The brand that runs their OS off of a USB stick inside the device so it’s always a ticking time bomb that might just stop working randomly? That one?
I’ve turned down many self-hosted options due to the complexity of the setup and maintenance.
Do you agree with this?
Yes. If I have to spend an hour reading your documentation just to find out how to run the damn thing, I’m not going to run it.
I hate docker with a passion because it seems like the people who develop on it forego writing documentation because docker “just works” except when it doesn’t.
I archived one of my github repos the other day because someone requested I add docker support. It’s a project I made specifically to not use docker…
Well if they ever pull another “you must use snap or die”, you’ll have to imagine it. Thankfully, this exists https://github.com/acmesh-official/acme.sh

It costs me nothing to have bots spending bandwidth on me because I’m not on a metered connection and electricity is cheap enough that the tiny overhead of processing their requests might amount to a dollar or two per year.
