Can someone fill me in on why this is funny

My god, it never ends

Welcome to the self hosted world friend. Also, your friend is going to need to download Tailscale also if they want to connect to your computer

I personally don’t really use physical media anymore but I can’t imagine it’s going away anytime soon

They have no groundbreaking AI software

Neither does the US

For torrenting purposes only, vpn doesn’t really matter as long it properly hides your ip (even the overpriced ones that don’t actually respect privacy)

Proton is still a good recommendation as long as you pay for premium, but I’ve started using airvpn since the proton ceo started getting weird. Mullvad is also good, but doesn’t allow port forwarding, which isn’t the end of the world but could have some negative effects (at least one person needs a forwarded port for you to connect to each other, and if you’re not forwarding yours, you’re relying on other people to forward theirs)

Tldr: proton is good, just pay for it. Airvpn and mullvad are also good

Wow I wish I had this a year ago. One thing though: a proton free account should not be used for torrenting as they don’t allow p2p connections. If you’re going to torrent, pay for your vpn

“Don’t worry, you don’t have to download a separate launcher, we’ve included it for you :)”

I’m pretty sure your supposed to set up W10 first (press “I don’t have a product key”) and then run the script after it puts you in

If it’s your thing btd6 is on sale for $3

You already posted this one

Is McCandless the one from the book Into the Wild? Iirc he had a pretty sweet scholarship lined up, but fucked off without telling anyone so he could “live off the land” in Alaska

I played the second Styx game when Xbox did free games with gold and enjoyed it. Depending on the price I’ll probably pick this up (or just wait until it goes on sale)

I mean, just because op make the original meme doesn’t mean they don’t have a 20 year old email full of spam (I also have one)

I’ve played almost every game between gen 3 and gen 7, but that’s about where I started falling out of love with it. Idk something about the new games just doesn’t jive with me. Rom hacks are pretty cool, although I felt they were stagnant for a while. Been a while since i checked though so time to see if people have cooked up anything good in the last year or two

1. I host at home so unfortunately can’t give you any advice on a vps

2. If you’re torrenting, yes I would recommend a VPN. If you’re setting up docker containers, gluetun is what you want to use. It’s a client you can use to connect to most major VPN providers

3. You don’t need to open your server to the internet for you or your partner to remotely access it. You can use tailscale (or manually setup wireguard) to remotely access it without exposing anything. Alternatively, if you still want to open it, you can use fail2ban. I don’t know enough about networking to tell you exactly how secure it makes you, but assuming you’re a normal guy who isn’t pissing off any major corporations/states/etc it’s probably fine

4. I haven’t clicked on any of the links you provided, but I assume they mention the *arr stack. Some other goodies that may not have been mentioned though are jellyseerr, which has a nice frontend to search and request movies and TV, and homarr, which is a dashboard you can setup to sync with your other hosted apps. I have a couple extra I could tell you if you want, but I think these are the most important for a basic “official feeling” setup

Got sucked into the solo leveling gacha game. I haven’t played a gacha game since the one I played in high school got shut down, but it’s pretty fun and seems like it’s f2p friendly. We’ll see how long I stick with it for

On howdy’s own page it says that a well printed photo or someone who looks like you would be enough to fool it. Idk how secure Windows Hello is, but howdy is designed for convenience over security

Honestly thank you. Been using homarr for a while and had no idea that had a completely new version

According to this comment higher up, 19 games were tested on an RX 6800 and every game was faster on Linux except for the Witcher 3 and cs2

Which game makes you click through ads to get to the menu?
