  • Its possible the client on your PC could be profiling your traffic and reporting back. That would likely end up badly for the parent company. But things like that aren’t unheard of and part of the reason I’m building my own router again. (See the ongoing GN LG coverage) Those sort of devices can spy on, and report back about other traffic on the network. If your smart devices are connected via Ethernet then they can likely see and read everything on your network that is unencrypted.

    But a management console isn’t traffic snooping. Yes, you do have to trust the client to use it. They aren’t routing your traffic through them though. If they’re found to be spying it will be huge news turning them into a parriah in the IT and open source communities.


  • Tail scale should act as a mediator basically initializing the connection between two remote sessions. Then stepping away, letting go two remote sessions handle everything else. If every customer’s traffic had to go through them as a central server, it would be a central bottleneck and a massive operating cost for them. This is why free Vpns are never worth it. You are always the product on them, and they are always heavily mining your data.



  • I’m not sure where AMD started allowing PCI and USB VM hardware pass through. But Intel 7xxx and up allow for it. Which really opens up what you can do. I have a tiny HP business unit with a 7th gen i5, 8GB RAM, and 256GB nvme sans psu. I picked up for 60 bucks on eBay plus shipping and taxes. PSU was about 16 dollars.

    Proxmox as a hypervisor, patching my zwave and ZigBee USB dongle through to HA. HA running on 2 core and 4GB. I passed the rest of the CPU, RAM, SSD, mouse, keyboard and display off to Haiku. For a nice graphical local admin console. I could easily split off more from haiku and get a 3rd setup running under proxmox. As haiku doesn’t necessarily need more than half a GB of RAM and 20 to 30 GB of disk space and 1 core really.







  • Wait, is this a new community? I bet you it’s a federation issue. If this is the first time that the lemvotes server has been pointed to that community. It may not have a copy of anything on hand to actually check against. Depending on how it works. Piefed and Lemmy both can take a while to populate a new community. And won’t do so until the first person from its instance requests to view them. So you might not see much of anything at first but over the next few days especially if there are repeated attempts to access it should try to load in the backlog. But it’s not instant. So it may just be a legitimate 404.


  • No what I was stating is that who the parent of a comment is can impact it as much as who made the comment. Go into a thread where anyone from Lemmy.ml has posted. If you try to look at their upvotes and downvotes it will give you a 404. If you look at the posts of anyone who replies to them it will also give you a 404. However if you see someone who replied to them post in another thread. It can report without a 404 simply because the person from lemmy.ml wasn’t in the chain. If they enter anywhere into the chain you will get a 404. The same for any instance that has defederated

    Oh wait I see what you’re saying now interesting



  • The common denominator is the instance the particular comment is posted from. For instance you could be viewing any thread in particular. On any instance in general. But if it’s one of the ones that’s defederated from them votes like lemmy.ml. that person’s comment or post and everything under it will give you a 404.

    It will also cause a mismatch on vote count. You will see everyone that uploaded or downloaded the comment except for those from the de Federated instances.
