‘Magical’ tech innovations a distraction from real solutions, climate experts warn | Overemphasis on innovation and carbon removal risks distracting from main goal of stopping use of fossil fuels, say
  • Climate change topic aside isn't this the truth for many things. People are hungry to showcase and market their product and as a result reality takes a backseat. It's part of the race. If there was no "rat race" would it be like this?

    It's not even limited to products and business. Basically people do all that they can to project what they perceive reality to be, and as a result we are left with a fake world? And we are all responsible, it's a human fault? And at the same time that fake world is reality...? The base paradox of existentialism?

  • I'm posting here because I assume a lot of you use vpns and this sub seems to have the most users to ask.

    I was thinking about getting a VPN but was wondering about port forwarding.

    I'm a Linux head so I would be downloading distros via torrent. If the VPN does not support port forwarding is it still possible to use for Linux torrents? I'm not going to be "seeding" media and extreme amounts of data, but the device would always be on and torrenting. In this case does port forwarding matter?

    I guess I don't really understand dynamic and static port forwarding.

    For my use case would mullvad or protonvon work even though they both use dynamic port forwarding? Or do I have to find one with static ports...?

    This VPN would be used on a server with docker...

    The other one I was looking at was airvpn, which is static, but I also read it might become more popular for people that use it for... Whatever... since mullvad stopped static ports.

    Are there work around for dynamic ports? In case I ever want to host a website in the future?

    Edit: It was built into the MX theme.

    I just installed MX Linux KDE and there's a clock widget in the top right that I can't seem to remove. Also it seems to be persistent between workspaces. How can I get rid of this? It disappeared when I tried to edit the regular widgets and then came back when I was out of edit mode.

    Any idea?

    Kind of a quick off the cuff question.... but is it difficult to get a docker hosted jellyfin server accessible outside of lan safely?

    I have tailscale and a VPN I can use for my own devices but would like to be able to access it safely without needing those.

    Does anyone know of a service that saves and manages bookmarks and links. Like one that would work from android/ipad/desktop.

    Is this a thing?

    How can I block meme, political nonsense anti-social posts, and shitpost instances?

    Is there a way to do it with Infinity for Lemmy? I saw a tutorial for using unlock but I use android apps for lemmy. I want to shut out the basement dungeon naive political kids.
