Is the TOR part optional?

This sounds like something everyone should go through at least once, to underscore the importance of hardening that can be easily taken for granted

Yep. And besides, the only people actually taking significant risk here are the instance hosters storing the content.

Ahhhhh fuck. We just got an HPE storage array. Pretty sure they have remote access into the device for support purposes.

This rocks

Shit, that was good. Maybe making the switch will help reduce the amount of ambient doom I feel nowadays.

Appreciate the warning, I will therefore skip this post o7

Radness factor is left out of efficiency calculations way too often

No, closest thing is to join a datahoarder group and trade when needed.

Although with LinkWarden gaining popularity, something like this developing is a possibility.

That is interesting, the last time i tried Element/matrix it did not have these features. Can I ask, is your screen sharing of a quality that you can stream videos and games at equivilant frame rates?

But neither have seamless voice chat/screen sharing, which is a staple of Discord that users are very used to.

This is a fantastic read. I wasnt around for the prime days of forums but I did experience them a bit.

I’m becoming extremely concerned about the number of topics and projects that are migrating to Discord. My main issue is that it is not and never will be publically indexed, and among other problems, is itself a corporate walled garden we consider to be “one of the good ones”.

I really hope we find and establish a “low executive cost” solution before the next time Discord fumbles (which is inevitable) and we can claw some of that activity back.

But people are so used to seamless voice and video chat nowadays - and that’s a technical hurdle that AFAIK, no open-source self-hostable projects have come close to solving.

Oh, I need this thread. I’ve been all over the place ever since Mint shut down.

I’ve been trying to find a more privacy-friendy alternative to Discord but I keep coming back to the issue of screen sharing. No other platform does it as smoothly.

The best I’ve found is using Parsec with some virtual audio cables to avoid voice feedback.

I need to try this, it looks great!

Super common with american media

I skimmed the article but didn’t see if they were including LNG in their renewables numbers, which certain publications sometimes do - assuming that’s not the case, this is great news

I’d imagine the effect was exasperated due to the pressure your feet are under when walking, whereas in a bath the weight is distributed and you’re mostly buoyant. Its probably fine.

Holy shit. I do a fair bit of small electronics repair on the side, the cost of a decent heat pad is about half that of a 3d printer… This may be what finally inspires me to get a 3d printer.

From experience, Lemmy/Mastadon is a lot easier to pitch to potential users than Linux lol
