r/place is back...
Reply in thread
literally lol, the idea of doing a r/place every year was already really unpopular as there was little cultural change. I wonder if they're going to do anything unique compared to last time.

Anyone else get the sense that Netflix's home improvement shows are normalizing religious nutbags?

safe to pirate movies from germany with vpn?
you'll be fine when using a VPN, just make sure it doesn't leak. in qbittorent you can assign the network interface directly to the VPN.
or get a seedbox

According to statcounter in June 2023 almost 3/4 of browsers used are Chromium
the thing with chromium being everywhere is with the illusion of choice. there's like 10 major browsers, as a end-user who doesn't really know any better they might all seem different but in reality theyrall based on chromium, with Firefox being the exception

Repair corruption without full re-download?
yes, when adding the torrent in your client, save it to the same place and run a recheck. it'll see what's missing and download it

Why are all basic app settings tied to the Lemmy account/instance?
I agree, it should be global by default and changeable per account

Why is thepiratebay not in the megathread, despite being so much better?

I bet it would be as simple as changing your DNS server to bypass this

Is it considered bad practice to expose selfhosted services on public internet?
It all just depends on how much you trust the app, and how you've set up things when it does go wrong. Not every container needs to be able to access other containers on the system, lan, have access to whatever folder, read/write permissions, etc
A good practice for things like vaultwarden would be to only whitelist the country/state you're in to minimize your attack profile
fail2ban or crowdsec can also help with all the rats sniffing around

Is a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 enough?
I don't think it has enough ram for even 1 of those applications (except pihole), not to mention it'll be hard setting up an external drive on it.
best get some kind of 2nd hand thin client, it'll be much much better.

afaik, exploit does not pass through federation. but you should change your password just in case.
it doesn't and probably cannot infect your device

[META] Migrating from r/combatfootage
IPFS is imo the best way to go, anyone can help store parts of the footage. It's pretty easy to understand if you've ever used torrents. https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs-desktop
Once lemmy adds a proper video player/embed support ill create a comprehensive guide for the community on how to upload. Debating on whether to ban all other 'non-permenant' media (imgur, etc)

How to know how many concurrent active torrents are too many?
(network wise) it isn't about number of active torrents but the amount of active connections you have in total, which is very dependent on your router, isp, vpn. but usually if they aren't shit, and especially on a private tracker you'll run into other bottlenecks like bandwidth, io, or whatever

Is anyone else's Plex content subscriptions being taken down?
why don't they just use Jellyfin
Comment on
Pokemon is driving me to want a Plex Server.
The easiest would be a Synology Nas, but make sure it has transcoding capabilities otherwise its such a headache if the device you're playing the video on doesnt support the codec.
otherwise i'd just try and see for a 2nd hand thin client which will be way more powerful than a synology and sweet sweet intel quicksync.
Also look into Jellyfin instead of Plex :)

unfortunately i'm not familiar with peertube, but anyone is free to post a mirror in the comments. i'm really just waiting for lemmy to add a proper video player/embed support so we'll see what the best option will be from there.
