I don’t know, I only play Sims 4 on the EA app and I read of people getting their EA account banned for playing multi-player games on Linux, so I did not even try.

I got both Steam and EA App versions running on my Steam Deck and desktop (the latter runs Bluefin). For the EA app I used Lutris, it works like a charm.

I’m surprised that it wasn’t the case already, but I’m all for it.

In my native language, fediverse translates to “fédivers” which sounds like “faits divers” the “incidents” or “'news briefs” section of a journal.

I encrypted my professional laptop’s drive in order to prevent access to company data and code in case of theft. And I’ll probably encrypt my personal laptop as well because the SSH key can access company code.

As for the desktop, I didn’t and probably never will, because theft is less likely and that would be a pain to handle for nightly backups (it is turned on with Wake-on-LAN and then a cron backs up my home directory to my NAS).

Finally, I won’t encrypt my NAS as well for the same reason: it would quickly become a hassle as I would have to manually decrypt the drives every time it boots after a power outage.

My theory is that it is used in the belief that it would trick and bypass algorithms used to detect copyrighted videos.

Most of the time archive.today gets the work done

It also offers a URL to get a snapshot from a given URL: http://archive.is/newest/http://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy

Can someone explain to me what is this warrant list? What does it bring to companies in it?

Software that bypass Cloudflare’s hCaptcha exist, notably Flaresolverr, but changedetection.io’s maintainer hasn’t worked on its integration yet.

I haven’t used Flaresolverr directly (I use it with Prowlarr), but maybe you could proxy your requests through it?

Yeah, the janky foundation made me and my boss wish we chose Java for the back-end multiple times. I like async / await (or coroutines in Kotlin-land), it’s easier to wrap my head around than Promises / Futures and I thought I would miss Reactive Programming, but not that much.

Yet, people willingly choose to use one of the most horrific ecosystems out there.

So far I have heard the following explanations for going full-stack JS

• Ability to re-use business logic in back-end and front-end

• Reduced context switching (though with frameworks that’s less true)

• You don’t have to recruit developers proficient in your back-end language in addition to Javascript

Personally, having worked on a full-stack Typescript project for the past year, I kinda miss the maturity of Java’s ecosystem: there is usually one mature and well-maintained library that does its job really well ; while in Javascript-land there are multiple libraries for a single job, each with varying quality and maturity, and most of them are no longer maintained.

I wonder how long we will have to wait for Macron to name the next Prime Minister. Anyone willing to bet for a nomination before 2025?

My main advice would be to get multiple hubs, because your 6 drives would share the same bandwidth. Also hubs with more than 4 ports are in fact multiple hubs chained together because most chips in hubs handle 4 devices at most. So it would be better to spread your drives on as much USB ports as possible.

Oh no, but it’s a neat feature, I wish Mastodon had it!

I’m not sure what you mean. There is a list feature much like the one that existed on Twitter, but since I don’t use it, I don’t know if you can share lists.

Edit: I tried the List feature and it does not work like on Twitter (at least the way I remember it): it only can only contain users you already follow and is private. It acts more like a feed with only a subset of your follows.

BTW, the author of this article still advertises its Twitter account 🙃

Inb4 The Guardian will have a presence on Bluesky but not the Fediverse 🙃

I’m not familiar with Nextcloud, but from reading the How to use this? section of the README I believe you can run it behind a reverse proxy:

--publish 80:80 This means that port 80 of the container should get published on the host using port 80. It is used for getting valid certificates for the AIO interface if you want to use port 8443. It is not needed if you run AIO behind a web server or reverse proxy and can get removed in that case as you can simply use port 8080 for the AIO interface then.

(Emphasis mine, in “Explanation of the command”)

My understanding is you only have to forward traffic from the reverse proxy to the port 8080. It uses a self-signed certificate though, so you might check if the reverse proxy you are using checks certificates signatures for upstream servers.

It is possible, what you’re looking for is a reverse proxy: it’s an HTTP server that will listen to the standard ports for HTTP and HTTPS that will redirect traffic to the chosen service based on the domain name or URL.

In your case, every subdomain would point to your VPS’s IP and traffic that’s for mastodon.example.tld will be seemlesly proxied to your Mastodon container.

Do some research on Caddy or Nginx, and I strongly recommend you learn Docker Compose and Docker networking, it will help you make it easier to maintain everything.

PS: CNAME pointing to A record is the way to go. You can do it one better by having a CNAME entry for *.example.tld, so that you don’t have to create a CNAME entry for every new service you deploy, but you better make sure that your reverse proxy won’t proxy requests to an unexpected container when requesting a bogus subdomain.

Hum, I never considered this option, though a bug in the CAN bus is more likely than brake lights being out. Some Renault cars were notorious for this, but in this instance I believe it was a Volkswagen Touran.
