    Apple Sells Privacy To Consumers. But It’s Quietly Helping Police Use iPhones For Surveillance.
  • I agree. And if you want some level of convenience and some level of privacy I think Apple is the way to go.

    For example I have the skills to use GrapheneOS but I just don't want to deal with it and I want to still be able to use NFC payments. So iOS is the next best thing.

    My first try at self hosting, and I have some questions...
  • No, you are correct. If you are the only person accessing the service you don't need to open any ports since you access your network via Wireguard anyway.

    Starfield: How Long to Beat the Shattered Space DLC
  • Completing all of these quests on the normal difficulty, assuming that you aren’t forced to replay sections due to dying or any other reasons, will take around 7-9 hours. There are several secrets, Sidequests, and hidden Points of Interest that the more adventurous players can explore, which will bump up the playtime. For players who take their time and see all the sights, the DLC will take around 12-15 hours to get the full experience.

  • Solution: I just had to create the file

    I wanted to install Pi-Hole on my server and noticed that port 53 is already in use by something.

    Apparently it is in use by systemd-resolved:

    ~$ sudo lsof -i -P -n | grep LISTEN [...] systemd-r 799 systemd-resolve 18u IPv4 7018 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.53:53 (LISTEN) systemd-r 799 systemd-resolve 20u IPv4 7020 0t0 TCP 127.0.0.54:53 (LISTEN) [...]

    And the solution should be to edit /etc/systemd/resolved.conf by changing #DNSStubListener=yes to DNSStubListener=no according to this post I found. But the /etc/systemd/resolved.conf doesn't exist on my server.

    I've tried sudo dnf install /etc/systemd/resolved.conf which did nothing other than telling me that systemd-resolved is already installed of course. Rebooting also didn't work. I don't know what else I could try.

    I'm running Fedora Server.

    Is there another way to stop systemd-resolved from listening on port 53? If not how do I fix my missing .conf file?

    I'm a beginner in networking things but due to my ISP I can only open a certain range of ports in my router to be accessible from the outside of my network (something like ports 11000-11500).

    That means I can't open port 443 to access my reverse proxy from the outside. Is it possible to redirect all traffic that's coming from one of the ports in the range to port 443 of my server?

    I haven't found that possibility in my router (Fritzbox 7530) so is there a way to do this on my server (running Fedora Server)?

    I've tried every tutorial I could find. From symlinking the desired terminal to gnome-terminal, or using the update-alternatives command to using the gsettings command to set the default terminal. Nothing works.

    What is the definitive way to set the default terminal for this GUI action? And why is this so hard to do?!

    I'm on Fedora if it's relevant.

    Androcur 10mg (which contains cyproteronacetate) is being discontinued by Bayer because it isn't economical for them to produce anymore. I hate it. It's the anti androgen that's pretty much the standard for feminizing hormone therapy here in Germany and I believe even in Europe.

    Edit: here is the email in German that they sent me after I asked them through their contact form: !

    Do you keep them, destroy/delete them, lock them away? What are you doing with your photos of your old self?

    Personally I'm a bit torn. On one hand I want to keep them because they are still memories, on the other hand I never want to see them again. So I will probably lock them away/archive them somewhere.

    But what about you?

    Could the design and/or placement of the separate up- and downvote score be improved?

    It would be nice to have them where the main score is shown on posts and comments instead of in comment/post info which is very small and not where you look at first.

    When I saw the setting I was happy it exists but pretty disappointed that it doesn’t change the main score display of posts and comments.

    Or am I just overlooking that setting?

    Is there a PDF viewer/reader that supports JavaScript like Adobe Reader?

    For example for D&D I use the MorePurpleMoreBetter character sheet that uses tons of JavaScript to automate many things.

    I have used FreshRSS before but I was always annoyed that some sites don't provide RSS feeds and that even if they provide feeds they don't provide the whole content through it and only a preview.

    What do you recommend for the perfect RSS setup? What are you using? Which app are you using to read them?

    The only thing that's missing from the new navigation layout is in my opinion an easily accessible "Frontpage" button like there was in the old navigation layout. So I made a pull request to re add the Frontpage, Settings and Explore buttons back into the sidebar for easier access.
