This is @Dave@lemmy.nz and @Dave@piefed.nz but PieFed told me not to use my admin account for general browsing so here I am following instructions.
Nah I don’t believe any of the hardware has ever been sold in NZ. Just not a big enough market I guess.
I had an Index and had to use freight forwarding to get it here, and IIRC some sort of trick with the store to get it to think I was in the US and then I shipped to the US and freight forwarded on.
If you want to hand out candy to children year round, you could consider becoming a tree? Saw this guy on the weekend, handing out lollipops to kids at the playground while playing the saxophone: https://thespinoff.co.nz/society/17-07-2022/have-you-seen-the-walking-talking-tree-of-wellington
Full disclosure, doing this may get you shot in the US, and this is not that unusual for Wellington NZ, we’re just kinda like this.
If it’s automated, why only run it weekly?
My face when Steam Frame (or any Steam hardware) doesn’t ship to my country.
Yes. I cancelled almost 2 years ago hoping they would improve by the time it was up but now I only have a month left to sort a new service 😭
“Your Windows boots up in what, a day and a half”
Somehow still relevant too.
Realistically it doesn’t need to request the DNS record every time. It’s probably retrying over and over because you blocked it, otherwise it would just cache the result for a while.
I remember some huge number of blocked requests when I set up my pihole, but eventually they calmed down as devices gave up their retrying.
Browsing through the list… ok how do I tell ifmy server has been compromised, because I run a fuckload of those…
I probably miss out on that aspect as I have everything automated 🤷
The two main benefits I’ve seen of private trackers are that you avoid the issue in the OP which happens all the time on public trackers, and that shows download in seconds.
Not sure how helpful they would be if things weren’t automated. I just have things set up so my Jellyfin users can request shows and they get downloaded automatically.
But with that said, “private” doesn’t mean it costs money, just that it requires an account (and usually that is an application process). It means they can kick people off for uploading things they shouldn’t.
Oh on private trackers it’s hard to keep a genuine ratio like that. Instead they typically assign points for time you spend seeding, and you use those points to “buy” upload credit that counts for your ratio.
Many private trackers have a requirement to log in every X months so occasionally I just go log in to each and spend all the points.
This seems like a one off for them, but for me whenever tracking ongoing TV series I would regularly get malicious files as they appear before the real ones, and get found and downloaded by sonarr.
These days I only automate from private trackers, and enable a public tracker for an interactive search only if something can’t be found on the private trackers.
I don’t think anyone has mentioned this yet, but the idea of AI hacking tools has also led to a lot more human effort in finding and fixing security issues.
A while back there was an article about AI security tools and something about over 200 security vulnerabilities patched (perhaps in Chrome?). But in the detail of the article, it mentioned only 4 were found by AI. The rest were found by humans trying to get there before people with AI tools found them.
I was gonna say you had it in the wrong place, but it looks like you also serve it in the /.well-known/ location as well.
I could not even get Minecraft Dungeons 1 to work on Linux. I didn’t try very hard, but it had some weird issue where the mouse kept jumping back to the bottom corner that made it unplayable.
Not OP but I use an Enterprise version that is fine, I guess a different release branch. My mother doesn’t have the enterprise version as she works for a small business and it broke.
Looking at last year’s survey, the number of self-hosted devices has 2-3 first. And Raspberry Pi is most popular.
I wonder about this, because I have Pi for Pi hole, and one for Home Assistant, each dedicated. Then almost everything I self host is on a different server. But this still represents Raspberry Pi twice as much as the main server. I think Pis may be most popular because there’s many single-purposes uses for them.
I thought the implication was that you may only be able to buy from that registrar if you’re from/in that country?
Ah that makes sense, thanks!
