Opening a port isn’t really bad if you have your firewall configured properly. You will have to open a port either way with jellyfin or wireguard. If you have a TLS/SSL certificate then just doing jellyfin is fine (but have good passwords since it’s public facing), otherwise a VPN like wireguard will handle encryption for you.

As for managing traffic on the VPN you can follow this advice: https://serverfault.com/questions/1075973/wireguard-how-to-only-tunnel-some-of-the-traffic

Basically setup your firewall to stop extra traffic on your end, and change accessible IPs in wireguard to your service(s) so the peer knows not to talk on that interface for unrelated things.

Here is the URL of the one I was sent: https://lemmy.doesnotexist.club/pictrs/image/44f99f51-2ae9-49b0-b0c8-4ae4cb989690.png

It’s potentially unique and not from a service by my instance or imgur, so the attack is feasible.

My phone’s name is “Samsung Smart Fridge™” because I think it’s hilarious if someone is looking at hotspots or network info and go “what the hell is a fridge doing here-”

Can you change the color of the ad badge? I’m fine with ads, but it blends in too well :/

If you did update, you should be able to rollback

I just got their new 3d printer and was having a great time with it… Won’t be updating firmware or buying anymore products with them until they fix this

There may be certain times where it’s all that’s available, I think I remember having to edit fstab in some recovery state in vi

Its been merged, the project has an MIT license now

I also fix typos.

Most of them I made, be it still counts!

I prefer x as in xylophone myself

Usually there is some reason behind the decision. This may be used by less tech literate people so having the familiarity of windows would be useful, or maybe the machines that are mass purchased are from a company with windows pre installed and it isn’t worth swapping. Maybe someone in the company is helping a friend offload licenses at cost to the company. Sure Linux would work perfectly fine, but it’s not like it’s going to improve the profit of a company or stability to such a high degree that it’s worth it.

A lot of the time you aren’t actually paying for the license afaik. If you look at a pre built and spec it out on PC part picker, the pre built can often come at a lower price bc the PC is subsidized with payment from the bloatware that is pre installed (think McAfee). Microsoft also sells the licenses in bulk to the store for huge discounts. Windows business model is a lot more about selling you 365 and your data than the operating system.
