  • I was given a steam giftcard for my b-day, what now?

  • Holiday sale starts Dec 18th

  • You first?

  • Gatekeeper: The first open-source DDoS protection system. Has anyone tried mass hosting this as a group?

    Jump

  • Doesn't really make sense for self hosting. Filtering the traffic is pointless if the traffic just completely overwhelms your internet.

    Also generally self hosters aren't running bgp with their own asn.

  • Man behind in-flight Evil Twin WiFi attacks gets 7 years in prison

  • You generally have to accept the captive portal pages before your vpn connection will be allowed.

  • Weight. If you load a 42u rack up with 30lb servers you're at 1280lbs spread out over about 4sqft, which is over the floor loading limit for most buildings. It's much cheaper to support the weight in a wider building compared to a taller one.

    That being said I've been in many data centers in the middle of a giant office towers, but they have lower weight limits generally.

  • is it fine to leave steam deck in sleep mode instead of turning it off?

    Jump

  • It's horrible about sleeping. If you want your battery, turn it off. The latest update seems to be better, but I wouldn't trust it in your shoes.

  • Spoof insists on helping by carrying my umbrella

    Jump

  • Yep. He's happy to trade in it for a treat.

  • BBC apologises to Trump over edit but refuses to pay compensation

    Jump

  • Having dug up and watched how they edited it, yes a retraction was definitely called for. They cut out almost an hour of content to manipulate his words in a way a journalist should never do.

    Fuck paying him any money though. Their response here seems reasonable.

  • Deep Rock Galactic set for new biomes, missions and enemies in Season 6

    Jump

  • Yay, finally!

  • Classic cat

    Jump

  • I'm on my 8th cat in my life, and they've all been very affectionate. Most of them haven't started that way, but you just keep forcing love in small doses on them and eventually they admit they like it.

    Strangers have come over and are blown away when my cat will just climb into their lap and demand cuddles.

  • Was thinking of getting into 3d printing, doesn't this listing seem too good to be true? (Answered)

    Jump

  • If you're new to 3d printing, I don't recommend buying a used budget printer unless you have extreme tolerance for troubleshooting someone else's problems.

    They're cheap enough new.

  • you're untapped value

    Jump

  • Rotisserie chickens are probably made with ones close to the expiry date. Nobody is going to buy a whole raw chicken that's best before tomorrow.

  • What to you, is always a losing battle?

    Jump

  • Saying no to my dog when he wants a refill of his treat ball

  • ZFS partition inside Proxmox VM

    Jump

  • You've made a virtual disk on the zfs. The vm will never see the zfs, that's managed entirely by the host.

    Yes you'll want to make a normal partition inside that virtual disk.

    With vms you can't just access the host zfs, it's always abstracted. If you use lxc containers on proxmox then you can bind the zfs into the container (google it for steps, it's not in the Gui)

  • Democrats Are So Angry, One Senator Faces Blowback From Her Daughter

    Jump

  • To protect the daughters election chances in the future.

  • Can Google read my Signal messages on stock Android?

    Jump

  • I believe notifications would be accessible. Note that i don't mean the push notification backend mentioned by Doomerang, but the actual notification that goes into your status bar (which is all processed on device). That would be readable by the OS in theory.
