I don’t proxy the port, I proxy the routes needed for auth and interface. This isn’t that hard.
EDIT: ah I see what you’re saying, you’re talking about the app surface rather than the raw admin API. The risk is small enough with the remaining attack surface that I’m not particularly worried, though obviously I’d like it to be better.
Just use a reverse proxy. Everything goes over https.
This is a concern if you just port forward through a router. This isn’t a problem if you simply use a reverse proxy, which is standard and normal and expected and not difficult at all.
This is a balanced take. If anyone doubts, you should read up on the scrubbing/cleaning NASA has to do on their rovers before sending them to Mars.
You know how that bottle of alcohol-based sanitizer says it kills ‘99.9%’ of all bacteria? Well 99.9% still leaves billions of the bastards behind. It’s the same for the UV treatment they do. And the ionic plasma jet. And the 8 or 9 other steps they take. And they’re really still not convinced every time they detect an organic on the surface of Mars we didn’t bring it with us by accident, have them make it through the vacuum of space and the hard radiation for the 18 month trip, and just release a handful of still living super resistant bacteria onto the surface.
I respect your perspective and personal experience, and I’m not trying to convince you (I’m not even downvoting you, as it’s not a disagreement button). I’m trying to convince whoever might come along and read this that the small extra price is worth it if their computer is going to hold data dear to them and be running 24x7.
ECC is extremely good at covering cosmic ray bitflips, which happen with extreme regularity on software that runs and modifies data on the fly- server software. Yes, even home run stuff. That’s just playing Russian roulette, it probably won’t break anything, but why take the risk at least 10 times every day?
It’s also great at catching failing RAM sticks and preventing them from doing horrible things to every bit of data running through them. This is the failure ECC caught for me at home twice.
I have only 2.5 decades in the enterprise server and software space, I won’t claim to your 4. But I know I wouldn’t take that risk at work, and I value my home data more rather than less.
I’m not a researcher or even a particularly well practiced rhetorician, so here’s probably a much more convincing argument.
Or this perhaps.
I’ll strongly disagree. Anyone who cares about the data they store in their server should care about ECC. There’s a specific reason it’s used so widely by servers, not just financial databases or whatever.
There’s also a ton of misinformation on the Internet about it, so don’t buy into the “ZFS write hole” or whatever. But ECC is very important in my experience. It’s saved my bacon in a material way twice now, and in ways that normal RAM would have just silently continued breaking things. Really that’s not much of a price premium if you’re willing to buy used, so it’s more a question of why not?
There are many computers (especially business line computers including low power SFF) that will take ECC or even ship with it from ebay or whatever. Or you can build rigs with ECC, I’ve done this route twice and had good results.
Agreed though, when they work they’re comfortable, responsive, intuitive. At their best they’re the best controller I’ve used.
But for $80+ these days they should have hall effect sticks and mechanical switches. I’ve started buying https://www.gulikit.com/ controllers, which have both and are much cheaper, but not as comfy or responsive.
I have serious stick drift on Dualsense controllers after using them on and off for just a year. 3 controllers, all with the same issue.
Yep exactly. As soon as they announced they weren’t going to ramp capacity I thought the exact same thing. They’re taking advantage of the situation to pad their pockets as thoroughly as possible.
And if demand continues theywill ramp and say they “reevaluated the market”, and thus get the benefits of panic buying AND a larger sales volume.
And mark my words- prices will never fall back to where it was without enormous market distruption.
Homeless shelters, housing, and work programs.
Education, and especially special education and mental health support in schools.
Small business low interest loans and art grants.
I don’t understand what you’re trying to say. Matrix is the communication protocol between clients and servers. It can’t dictate how a client displays those communications. It would be like TCP demanding that webpages be laid out a certain way.
I’ve often heard repeated that a human can live on water, potatoes, and salted butter basically indefinitely.
Not sure how true, but seems plausible.
There’s many models that use open source training sets and weights. You can choose them.
Explain to me which forest burns down when I run an AI on my local computer that uses the same power (or less) as running a video game?
AI / LLMs aren’t evil or unethical or immoral - commercializing them into enormous behemoths that eat resources 24x7 is.
Agreed, a locally running LLM is an amazing choice.
Yeah agreed.
Probably just had contacts and offered/sold leverage.
Everyone thinks ‘working for’ means that it’s some sort of commitment and only highly vetted people work in the international intelligence community. And this is true for the handlers, but most of the information comes from freelance contacts adhoc.
I’m certain he sold to other intelligence groups too.
I’ve had both. I like Bosch a little better for features and layout, but I’ve regretted neither.
Both just work. Both are fairly cheap and easy to fix either by yourself or with a service.
I told my buddy that I suggested Bosch or Meile because I literally don’t have to think about them.
StreetComplete is a great way to help fill in the blanks!
As a huge Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim fan, I’ve found the same. KDC in many ways hit many of the same vibes but with superior characters, story, and dialogue. The missing magic is a vibe I still return to mostly Oblivion for these days.
