Immich all the way my dude.

I don’t understand what’s the point ? Why would the police even do that ? I mean, unless they are psychopath of some kind ? Why would they lose 17hours of their time like that ?

That’s unbelievable.

Use Archlinux. Reason ? Because you will be able to say " I use Arch btw".

Btw, I use Arch.

I would never go back installing something without docker. Never.

I’m 😭 😂😂

Less fucking road, less cars, more co-op housing. Leta stop wasting space for cars, and use that space for mixed use housing.

Where is your great communist country ?? Oh wait, it’s not there. It doesn’t exist and it never will. Capitalism works. Not perfect but it works. Your idealized version of communism is great but so is my idealized version of capitalism where everyone has a shot at the American dream!

You have to be fucking dumb. Get the fuck out. AcTuAlLy LoL ThE iNtErNeT blablabla. Do you really think a fucking chamber that you can only go to sleep is a fucking residence ? Are you a moron ?? Get an education dumb fuck.

This has to be one of the most horrible tower I have ever seen. Well, every big tower like those are horrible. What, you want big towers like that ? You think that’s how we fix the housing crisis ? Not really…

What is good ubanism then ? 4 to 5 story building max, mixed use, no cars, 5minutes walk to everything you need, great architecture so it’s nice to walk in the neighborhood. That’s what we need. We want human scale, not some horrible bullshit like this. That’s not a city, it’s a nightmare. That’s not beautiful, that’s depressing. That’s not great architecture, that’s just some concrete box stacked on top of each other. If this is what you want, read about ubanism. If you think this is beautiful, you probably have horrible taste. And if you think that’s needed, well, that would be like applying a bandaid on someone that lost his legs. We need a fucking surgery to fix our cities, not that bullshit “let’s build horrible concrete tower that will ruin the land for decades.l, because housing crisis”.

Capitalism does not work well when companies are too big. No one can compete unless you are already very rich. That sucks.

Jesus Christ that’s depressing lol. Shaken baby are a real thing though. When parents are exausted and their baby can’t stop crying, that’s something that can happen. If you ever are in this situation, just leave the baby crying and get out of your house. It’s not your fault the baby cry, that’s what they do sometimes and there’s nothing you can do. Hopefully, this man is innocent and won’t die because that would be a real tragedy.

I wasn’t sure of the word. Cute is very good to describe this!

It is possible. As long as the protocol allows sending bytes of data controlled by the user which XMPP allows.

You would basically wrap http with XMPP. You need a server that would understand XMPP, read the payload, create the http request, do the request for you, wrap the response with XMPP and send it back to you.

You can do that with DNS as well which would bypass probably everything. However, your bandwidth wouldn’t be great.

Why do we need a law ? Didnt they, the people, vote for this old person or not ? I mean, if you are going to vote for a dry old person to represent you, that’s on you, unless there’s something I don’t understand about the Senate.

1 db per stack. Not worth your time to secure, configure and debug one big db.

I open 443 and 80 on my router and forward it to a reverse proxy.

I have a couple of service that are exposed but most of them make sense only when I’m home so I whitelist private IP address on my reverse proxy.

If you do.your basic security such as updating your servers and services and not having dumb password, you shouldn’t be afraid. Think about it, all of the services that you use is exposed on the internet. I did work for big company and they don’t do much more than what you would probably do, except maybe having some automated monitoring that flag weird stuff. But hey, aside from bots, I don’t think Russian hackers are interested in your stuff. Stay low profile with your exposed things and it’s gonna be alright. Make sure you backup.

Wow, I’ll look into this, thanks !

The hard part is the network. Everything is different with different ISP. The DNS is another challenge, you need to buy your ‘internet real estate’ and have it work correctly if your IP change.

Security is another challenge but I think it’s easier to notice unusual traffic from your basement server than from a mega-tech-bro-corporation. There’s probably some easy software that could do that.

I would love to do this but I’m afraid of exposing my home IP to the world of spammer and what not. Did you selfhost on a cloud provider or did you do it from your home ? How crazy does the security need to be around Lemmy instance ? I really feel like it’s a beacon of come hack me if you can!

I just finished reading it. I must admit that I wasn’t blown away at the start. But the last few paragraphs, especially about the “Embrace, Extend, Exterminate” strategy really convinced me.

I did not remember that Google chat was once a XMPP client and that they pulled the plug on this.

Anyway, I’m totally convinced that the fediverse is most probably better off without Meta. Although, I’m not sure how the fediverse admin can really block them. At some point, some people will want to see meta’s stuff.

It almost feel like we need a legal organization around the fediverse. Just some unorganized random people won’t save whatever we have here. If we still want this to be as free as possible, there will be a time where a giant company will fuck thing up and we may forget why we didn’t want them here in the first place.
