So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....
I work in tech and am constantly finding solutions to problems, often on other people’s tech blogs, that I think “I should write that down somewhere” and, well, I want to actually start doing that, but I don’t want to pay someone else to host it....
Assume at all times that the box is toxic waste and that is an entry point into your network. Leave it isolated. No port forwards, you already have tunnels for that, don’t use it for DNS don’t use it for DHCP, Don’t allow You’re network users or devices to see ARP traffic from it.
I used to have a separate box, but the only thing it did was port forwarding
Specifically i don’t really understand the topology of this setup, and how do i set it up
How do notifications work in the official Telegram Android app (Play Store vs Site version maybe)? Does it have the same mechanism as Signal, which only recognizes the presence of notifications via Google services, but sends them via its web socket service?
So, I downloaded Lego Jurassic World on mobile as an APK. On launching the game it displayed Chinese text. On translating the text, I found out that it was Chinese Age-verification. How do I bypass this. Or do I not bypass this at all and download another version
For a few years now, I’ve been using and paying for Deezer, but recently they’ve started to do away with the features that I preferred about their platform, so I’m wondering of there is any options for me here.
There are many ways to use it, but I personally use the user script with tempermonkey(or greasemonkey)
So:
<span style="color:#323232;">Install Tampermonkey
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Note: If you already installed an old version of the script called "musescore-downloader", "mcsz downloader", or "musescore-dl", please uninstall it from the Tampermonkey dashboard
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Go to the latest dl-librescore.user.js file
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Press the Install button
</span>
hi I’m still exploring stuff and I was thinking about nix, with all his stuff, what do you guys think? maybe someone with experience can tell me if I should stay away from that or could be a good choice for privacy, anonimity and security
It’s like giving a map of your infrastructure to a hacker, but it depends on your thread model. Most of the attacks on home servers are automated, so it shouldn’t be a consern
Another thing if your thread model is different, then the situation is not that good, but you can encrypt a lot of stuff, especially when you’re making your config reproducible
The wiki is not even recommended, since some time already nobody has access to the wiki, even to put a banner “stay away, everything is not working and outdated”
The Matrix room is the recommended channel of support
I personally think it’s a bit a waste of somebody’s time to always sit there and reply
Also, when you start understanding how this stuff works, you can start using github’s search code so you can find snippets of code and make your own (or just look at the packages’ code, it’s very basic inside)
Ah, and forgot to mention because it’s too obvious, nixpkgs search, this is basically all you need for free movement inside “nixverse”
I know the question is rather awkward at first and I am possibly overlooking something, but I would like to know something I really don’t understand....

Those who are self hosting at home, what case are you using? (Looking for recommendations)
TLDR: If you were building a NAS for 8 HDDs and 1 SSD today, what case would you use?...
