Setup a VPN on a VPS. Use traefik and authelia. Authelia will be your authentication portal and traefik will tunnel the traffic from the auth portal to configd locations within the VPN. Get your home network on that VPN.
Choose VPS provider based on geographic location.
Sucuri?
Akamai?
Kinda depends on what’s going on, price point, etc. is this for DDOS purposes?
You do not need a CDN, but you have users. So, is this for like, a Plex server, serving friends in a similar geographic region?
What’s the use case? That will greatly help us answer.
No better way to learn how something works than to be forced to repair it from a broken state 😎
It will depend on “how duplicate” they are.
I’d use a file renamer that uses id3 tags, which will help find duplicates. It’ll ask you to rename/skip/delete dupes.
There are probably better methods tho 🤷♂️
My concern when I see bloat is “what are you hiding?”
And to me it represents the possibility that Ubuntu with Firefox is trying to make a marketable OS, which is just Windows with extra steps.
But overall I hear you. I daily drive Ubuntu 22.04, Ubuntu Server 22.04, Debian 12.5 and Windows 11 (sigh)
Idk did you stan for 24.06 or are you still a reasonable person like “why that OS so big?”
You’re smart just not an elitist.
It is still by far most cost effective.
Your argument amounts to nothing.
No “old i7” as I suggested, is going to meaningfully increase the temp of your room if it has any cooling solution in place.
Your stubbornness around a perfectly practical solution is absurd. I won’t bother convincing you further – it’s the obvious cost effective solution.
Idk what I’m paying per kwh, I am just going off my monthly bills.
There are other power fluctuates, I’m sure. I pay it no mind I just look at the bill. 🤷♂️
So far no bill has arrived that made me change behavior.
Edit: I’ve also never measured what my machine actually pulls down continuously/when idle. I just know that it’s components demand that range, and that I need the headroom in my power supply for spikes.
It totally doesn’t
I’m running a 14th gen i9 with a 4080. It’s a power hungry boy. 1500w power supply. Generally using about 600-800w.
Running this 24/7 costs me <$10/month in electricity.
The old compaq presario with a Pentium II that probably pulled down 100w running Ubuntu server as described here made no statistically significant change in my electric bill. That is to say, it’s about as much change as being good or bad at turning off your lights when you’re not using them. It’s negligible.
If price is the deciding factor then just build one.
Get an old i7 for dirt cheap, cram the thing with ram and storage to suit your budget.
Run something lightweight like Ubuntu Server.
Growth, public companies, shareholders, profits.
I think the writing is on the wall. Indie devs are more capable than ever, it just doesn’t require a big studio to make a high quality game anymore.
I think making movies and making videogames are art forms that have historically been dominated by large conglomeration a of owners of the means of production. It used to be hard to do a green screen. Now 12 year olds do it to stream.
It’s like music. Producing music used to be a whole thing. Like going to a brick and mortar studio, with like… A parking lot. Employees. The whole 9. Nows it’s a dude on Craigslist or Fiverr. That’s where movie making and videogame production are headed.
So big studios have big investments in a market with an ever lower barrier to entry. Their investments don’t significantly position them beyond the likes of a passionate kid in the middle of a manic episode.
So they’re closing up shop.
I’m unsure but I see secret.yml in there. Is that sensitive? You might want to update that ASAP if it is.
Lol let’s take the kid gloves off, shall we?
Fingerprints, as a means of authentication, is just straight up not secure.
A Google supporter? 🤔
Don’t get me started 😂
I worked for a company that had over 300 clients with sites with them. They don’t give a fuck. We literally moved over 300 accounts to another provider over their shit support/sales teams. Domain, hosting everything.
They. Don’t. Care.
They took down services by trying things that aren’t possible on their platform (DMARC for subdomain). Totally unacceptable. How tf do they not know that they can’t accommodate my request without damaging my infrastructure?! Other providers can do DMARC for subdimains?!? WTF?!?!
If they’re your provider and you’re in trouble, contact Newfold Digital support first. That’s their parents company. They tend to route you better than Bluehost does. Shit Bluehost chat support has been broken for like 3 months lmao.
