Empire of Gold - Book 3 of the Devabad Trilogy by S. A. Chakraborty.

They have been much slower reads than most fantasy I have read. I am not convinced the ending will be worth the effort.

I just picked up Katabasis by R. F. Kuang first few chapters were fun. I’m thinking I’ll enjoy it more.

You hit the nail on the head.

I don’t disagree, and I am one of the VPN advocates you mention. Generally there is no issue with exposing jellyfin via proxy to the internet.

The original question seemed to imply an over-secure solution so a lot of over-secure solutions exist. There is good cause to operate services, like jellyfin, via some permanent VPN.

I would not publicly expose ssh. Your home IP will get scanned all the time and external machines will try to connect to your ssh port.

Over the top for security would be to setup a personal VPN and only watch it over the VPN. If you are enabling other users and you don’t want them on your network; using a proxy like nginx is the way.

Being new to this I would look into how to set these things up in docker using docker-compose.

Thanks for publicly declaring your lack of empathy.

You have a mini sword breaker. It’ll be fine…

Edit: autocorrect…

How else does it remove undesirables. /s

They mostly don’t own anything. Either a rich person or a company owns where they live.

Set aside a few weekends and mess around distro hopping. Think of it as a small scientific study. Use what you determine to be the most comfortable with.

I suggest being clever in your partitioning keeping /home and any other areas personal to their own partition if not their own disks. If you want to experiment you lose nothing by wiping / and installing something else. Also, you should decide on an effective backup strategy.

I would not vote guilty on your jury.

As good as it would feel to support this sentiment, every one of these “antivax idiots” that catches covid gives the virus more generations to mutate. Creating a danger to us all.

If you wanted to go overboard, don’t even make the server accessible publicly. Distribute keys to a Wireguard network that is accessible publicly. Mandate your players obtain keys from you to play.

I was born into a car centric society. So much so they design the places we live around them. Including dense residential far away from employment that requires transportation. Chop all attempts at decent public transit and now you have created a market of completely artificial demand. Which the law says cars must become more expensive. I have to have a car because of the awful design choices made by unqualified politicians past. Fuck the auto industry. They could have been out saviors by being the example of what union companies do but instead chose violence.

Do it. I waited for release but it was smooth as butter before. It has some edge case issues but on the whole it’s been better than staying on plasma 5.

You can restrict the size of the ramdisk so you do not end up killing processes. A large amount of ram is not mandatory.

tmpfs is the filesystem you are looking for. You can mount it like any other filesystem in /etc/fstab.

tmpfs /path/to/transcode/dir tmpfs defaults 0 0

I transcode to ramdisk.
