I rolled my eyes at the last sentence. Good job bro, we are grateful

It’s sad how self contained now means “only” one docker image

Ehm… which sites?

It syncs my extensions, except for mobile the ones that aren’t available (obviously)

This is very cool.

I an slowly building my own syslog server with visualization, but it’s cool to see new stuff on the block.

I have always been wary of big commercial services like kibana, grafana, etc…

Because it completely derails the topic without adding anything to the discussion

There is another model proposed at the end of the 90s by a french professor.

Just tax my internet (it’s actually alrrady taxed) and monitor torrent / p2p shares (like it’s already being done). Then pay a proportion of the money gathered via taxes to the creators of the media. It’s a system that is already in place for some Television companies in Europe. Today, I would compare it to spotify. You still get the capitalist model where big budget peoductions make tons of money, but you live in a world where you are free to share and remix

Or don’t, because they are going to kill it eventually.

There are less convenient possibilities, like pass and keepass, even a markdown file pgp encrypted and git. Yes, less convenient, but guaranteed to work in 5,10,20+ years

Holy fudge i didn’t expect this but it’s great. I suggest everybody to try it. And yes, ed2k is as alive as ever, especially for it, es, fr comtent

here we are talking about piracy, especially the topic of discussing piracy. Just use a forum, even something like lemmy. Here you have everything you need, but without contributing to a piece of shit like Moxie nor putting everything behind a walled garden like discord (or any other chat software for this matter)

Do it. Buy an hdd, start to understand how to store the data safely, how to torrent and how to contribute to the community.

You’ll learn a lot, and I am guessing that you are very young, all this knowledge will be very useful in the future. Every cent spent now, will multiply in the future

how is it not?

• the worst kind of opensource, where you are not allowed to run the software yourself (or even fork it)
• not indexable
• requires signup with personal informations
• forever tied to a single identity
• not exportable to other services
• no open formats for its storage

it’s a shitty service, by a shitty person. I know Moxie personally, and he is basically Elon Musk if he didn’t make it

Yes, let’s talk piracy behind some stupid walled garden. As if public conversations are not fragmented enough as it is

this is a very bad article. It talks about “zero trust” but then suggests you to use corporate software, the cloud, sketchy russian apps to monitor your traffic at home. Also, I am not spending 2 hours a day going through my logs, nor I want a VM/container with 8GB of ram wasting 40% of my GPU on grafana.

Great that you included your threat model, but you should have specified the type of services that you host/provide.

One thing i would look into is disabling any port that is not necessary (like 80 and 443) and disable ssh on the wider network.

Host a wireguard endpoint in the internal network that acts like a bastion and allows you to ssh-jump to any other host and VM on the network.

Wireguard is more secure than ssh, assuming sound crypto and hygiene for both, because you can’t probe a host from the outside and know if wireguard is running or not

I am not sure what you are talking about. None of the stuff OP talked about are related to containers. Also containers complicate networking a lot, so i would avoid them at all costs and use VMs

Totally agree. This reflects my experience encoding with both formats for releases.

At similar bitrate, av1 also performs much much worse on grain and it is slower to encode

For most stuff i release, x265 objectively (vmaf and other metrics) and subjectively looks better than av1, especially for grainy stuff and older anime. I have had success only with some action movies.

Opus on the other hand… it’s great

I mean… do the math and you can figure out by yourself that it’s a fair price but in no way some sort of very convebient situation for the users. A 20tb hard drive goes for about 450€ and then you can consider the advantages that they have buying hdd at scale.

No, I can assure you russian people use torrents
