I jumped in and had a look around. I’d recommend making a welcome area around where the new player spawn is. A little lighting and a few signs for the rules would be helpful.

Machine learning is a subset of the AI branch of computer science. I agree that the pop culture definition of AI is different than the computer science one, but the computer science one is still valid.

That bully sure is nice, he did a great job cleaning up my nose bleed from when he punched me in the face!

Interstellar is what I’m using. Generally usuable, but certainly doesn’t understand the things that make PieFed special. With so many of the major Lemmy instances spooling up secondary piefed instances, it means it is probably only a matter of time before this issue is resolved.

Four legs good. Two legs better.

It’s pretty critical to topic feeds. The app I’m using doesn’t understand the link consolidation thing that Piefed offers, so I’ll see 5 of the same post all together in it. Really I just need to start using a PWA instead of the app until Piefed has better app support.

I know most of their apps now have an Android version, but it would be cool to run a full Linux phone. Its too bad most phones are so poorly supported for anything but Android.

Sounds like the beaver didn’t do it, lack of proper infrastructure redundancy did. Don’t blame the beaver for beaving.

Cruelty is the point and they are working hard to make it usual.

Interesting, I didn’t realize they got the javascript trademark when they got Sun. I wouldn’t be surprised if a judge threw out the trademark as generic at this point, if they understood technology, but that’s a big if. I knew naming rights were a big reason that people tried to roll the name back to ECMAScript, but that never really took off.

They bought Java (not javascript) a long time ago. With, as far as I can tell, the sole intent of monetization through legal action.

I’m a big fan of syncthing. It doesn’t rely on cloud services for storage, and can work 100% locally if you want it to.

It isn’t perfect. It has a model of running a web server for managing the service which is a little strange. Because it is not backed by any cloud storage it means you are on your own to make sure you keep your copies safe.

With those two issues understood, it is simple, fast, free, and and supported almost everywhere. I have it on my phone, laptop, desktop, and as a docker container on my NAS. Everything stays synced and the NAS does backups of the data.

A neat feature in the new Death Stranding game is a “Pretend I Won” button on the death screen for bosses. It’s nice when games recognize that skill checks can be a problem, and what makes some games fun for some users isn’t being challenged.

It does, however, have a ton of fluff and filler.

There’s nothing saying you can’t have ports forwarded for the NAS, and have a VPN for everything else. Censorship may be a problem, but those more often block VPN services like NordVPN, not protocols. So running your own is less likely to be stopped. That said, of course comply with local laws, I don’t know where you live or what’s legal there.

If you really want multiple things exposed at the same time, you have two options(which can be used in combination if needed/wanted):

1. A reverse proxy. I use caddy. I give it a config file that says what address and port binds to what hostname, and I forward port 443/80 to it. That works great for web content.
2. Use custom ports for everything. I saw someone else walking you through that. It works, but is a little harder to remember, so good notes will be important.

I still recommend against forwarding a lot of ports as a beginner. It’s very common for software and web apps to have security vulnerabilities, and unless you are really on top of it, you could get hit. Not only does that put all your internal devices at risk, not just the one that was original breached, it also will likely become part of a botnet, so your local devices will be used to attack other people. I’d recommend getting confident with your ability to maintain your services and hardening your environment first.

I’ll be honest, if you aren’t planning on sharing with others, I’d recommend switching to something like wireguard to connect back into your house instead of exposing everything publicly. Some firewalls have wireguard built in, so you can setup the VPN easily. But then all you have to do is keep your VPN endpoint safe to keep your internal network protected from the Internet, instead of having to worry about the security of everything you expose.

The synology NAS can act as a reverse proxy for stuff inside your network. I don’t have mine in front of me, so you will have to google the steps, but basically you point the synology to an internal resource and tell it what external subdomain it should respond to.

I don’t know why you are asking me.

That’s what it was called! I remembered the program a few weeks ago but couldn’t for the life of me recall the name.

There are two major advantages to what Nintendo did. The plastic top significantly increases shatter resistance. Look at Jerryrig Everything’s review to see, it’s almost impossible to break the screen now via blunt force, which is a big problem for people with kids. Surface scratches are far better than a shattered screen.

The second advantage is that you can put a glass screen protector on it and get the best of both worlds. A replaceable glass surface that is nice and hard. What I think would have made it better is if the console came with a pre-installed glass protector that was replaceable.
