  • Important question

    Jump

  • Hardee's curly fries are the best. By extension I guess that means Carl's Jr. too, but I wouldn't know.

  • 8BitDo announces it's controllers now have Steam/SteamOS compatibility

  • The back buttons didn't work with Steam Input (and still don't with the v1's).

  • Why was file search much faster in Windows XP than in subsequent versions?

    Jump

  • You definitely should still check this, but even with proper indexing settings Windows is still garbage at search and has been since XP.

    And this is coming from one of the only people who ever defends MS on Lemmy.

  • Plan for my first homeserver

    Jump

  • Yep, that would work fine for the first line of defense. Eventually, you can expand it to copy, replicate, or drive swap the onprem backups offsite somewhere (e.g., cloud, office, or family member) if you want to protect your data from site loss (e.g., house fire).

  • Plan for my first homeserver

    Jump

  • The only thing missing is a good backup.

    If you are storing anything important -- especially Immich and Vaultwarden data -- you should have a good offsite protection strategy. And even the HASS config should be backed up with versioning because rebuilding from scratch could be painful once you get deep into it.

    I'll let others chime in on possible good backup options because I use Veeam and Azure, which really isn't in the spirit of this community, and I'd be interested in good open source options myself.

    Also, RAID (mirroring) is NOT a backup.

  • I read a lot of reviews before buying mine saying things like, "so heavy you could kill an intruder," but still wasn't prepared for just how heavy it was.

    Definitely worth it.

    Also the pupper is adorable. 😍

  • That just the summary aggregated from multiple sources. Below it you should be able to drill into the actual published articles.

  • Totally not disagreeing, but for some more context she married into the Walton family, inherited a 1.9% stake in the company when her husband died in 2005, and has never had a role in the organization.

    What the actual hell, Microsoft?

    Jump

  • Lol Microsoft is not even close to a walled garden. This is just them removing the password manager feature that nobody used from their authenticator app.

  • Totally correct

    Jump

  • Exactly! It's not like you need them to learn good habits to become self-sufficient workers when they grow up.

    As much as we beg and plead him, our dog is never going out to get a job. Might as well spoil him with treats and belly rubs!

  • Microsoft to Block Emails With 550 5.7.15 Access denied Error

    Jump

  • This isn't Microsoft's announcement. They announced over a month ago. This also only affects bulk senders sending over 5,000 emails a day inbound to their Hotmail/Outlook.com service.

    And if you can't send DMARC-compliant emails in 2025, frankly you deserve to be blocked.

  • Apparently it was in the manual, but I'm just learning it now.

    Jump

  • Also it was black on red to make it harder to photocopy. I remember my mom being proud that she'd used the filters on the fancy copier she had at work to copy this sheet.

  • Introducing Lemvotes

    Jump

  • Yep this is exactly right. Too many people are unaware that their votes are not anonymous on Lemmy and blocking the public tool only helps the bad guys who already know this. I've always thought this was a major weakness in Lemmy but I don't have a solution myself without some other major drawback.

    I think probably votes should be anonymized or batched between servers so that only your instance's admins can see individual votes and you just have to trust the instances you federate with that they aren't pulling any shenanigans or otherwise defederate. That's not an easy problem to solve, but it's not like it's not currently possible to manipulate votes with a federated server, it would just be harder to detect. Regardless I think the need for privacy wins here.

    Setting up a private network in shared apartment

    Jump

  • The easiest way that doesn't affect the main network would be to use a travel router. Its WAN IP would be the private IP it gets from the main network (over wireless since that's your only option). And it would NAT your network onto that IP and then you can do whatever you want on your network.

    I'm not sure if that Mikrotik router will do this but it might. You basically need something that can connect to an SSID and use that interface as its WAN interface. The wireless factor here is really limiting your choices. If you had a wired uplink to the main network you could use any router/gateway/firewall you wanted. You could also use an AP in bridge mode to connect to the main network's SSID and wire it to the WAN port of any router of your choice.

    You don't really need to use VLANs to separate your network from the main network unless you want to share any of the same layer 2 segments (basically wired Ethernet) while keeping it isolated. But it doesn't really sound like that applies in your scenario. Of course using VLANs within your network would still make sense if that applies (for example, to separate your server traffic from your IoT traffic).
