  • Why use a VPS at all then? Do you not want to host at home?

  • I want to call out one thing in case you didn't know.

    The idea of a public VPN is to hide your traffic with other users who also use the VPN. If you're renting a VPS you don't get all the "benefits" of a public VPN. All you're doing is adding an extra hop to the internet, you're not mixing your traffic with others using the same IP. It's all you.... In fact, you're probably making it easier to isolate the things you do online because at home you could say a guest you had over must have downloaded it. If its the VPS, its all you.

  • 😮‍💨 doing the math to figure this out is depressing.

  • 30s. GameCube, gameboy colour, n64, and xbox360. If I had to pick one it'd be n64.

  • Food.

  • Œuf

  • All thats missing is a shitty lawn chair on the back.

  • If they ever use biometrics for this, mine are for sale. Cheap.... I'd like to know what happens when I can't use who I am as my ID because it's public.

  • Our AC ran from 9:30am yesterday morning until it was able to catch up to the set temp at about 1:50am. Seems like it has already started again today. 2 years ago we didn't have one, I'll never go back.

  • In 2025 they exploited a 2023 vuln. What did our telcos expect to happen?

  • It doesn't check all your boxes but pingvin is what I use to share large files

  • Seems like this is the entire article?

    Extreme heat wave expected to peak with record-breaking Monday

    Lamp.

  • Frah-g-lay... It must be Italian!

  • Good news for the most part. This bit kind of sucks:

    While baby boomers and Gen X men and women were largely aligned in their support, those attitudes diverged among millennials and especially Gen Z, the poll found, with more young women supporting LGBTQ2 issues than young men.

    I had high hopes for my generation (millennials) and younger. We'd fix everything our parents did... Now I have doubts. "Live and let live" is such a low bar we should all be able to do.

  • I mean, eventually it'll be dropped in the water. 😉

  • Router gets the public IP. Login to it, find port forwarding option. You'll pick a public port. IE 443 and forward it to a local IP:port combo, IE 192.168.0.101:443.

    Then you can pick another public port and forward it to a different private IP:port combo.

    If you want a subdomain, you forward one port to one host and have it do the work. IE configure Nginx to do whatever you want.

    EDIT: or you use IPv6. Everything is a public IP.

  • If I didn't do anything wrong I'd ignore anyone I didn't want to talk to and keep doing my own thing. Continue shopping or whatever it was.

    Other things that happen would be unrelated (even if it's related, I'd deal with it as a separate event). Next thing that happens is a security guard hits me, call the cops. I did nothing wrong. If they try to stop me I'd ignore them and wlk away. Physically hold me, I'd call the cops.

    If I was scared for my safety I'd do everything and and anything to get out of the situation and deal with the consequences once I was safe.

    Soldering @lemmy.ca

    looking for advice

    So, I'm pretty new at soldering and I'm looking for some advice on how to not ruin a via while removing solder...

    I was trying to remove the solder from a original Xbox 1.0 motherboard and I burnt the shit out of a via and caused issues with several others.

    I was able to fix it and everything is working but I want to do better.

    https://lemmy.ca/pictrs/image/b2d04556-025e-404d-940d-886247cdb97c.jpeg

    I used a pointed tip, flux, and added some of my own solder to the via. I then cleaned, added new flux, and used solder wick to remove the solder. Some points, would NOT melt at all. I kept increasing the temp to 430°c and it finally melted and took everything with it.

    Now, I know I fucked up and used too much heat. I probably should have used my rework station and a solder sucker but I JUST got the rework station and didn't want to popcorn the OG Xbox board... The solder wouldn't stay melted long enough from my i

    Has anyone actually found the NSP/XCI somewhere?

    I've found an update file but the base game doesn't seem to be anywhere I have access to.

    Ontario Provincial Police in Ottawa caught a novice driver reaching speeds of 160 km/h on Highway 417 on Sunday morning.

    An OPP spokesperson said officers stopped the G2 driver shortly before 9:30 a.m. near the Kanata Avenue exit.

    The speed limit in the area is 100 km/h.

    "This speed is never okay, but even more dangerous when you're an inexperienced driver," OPP said on social media site X.

    The driver was charged with stunt driving and received an automatic 30-day driver's licence suspension and a 14-day vehicle impound.

    If convicted, they will face a minimum $2,000 fine, six demerit points and a one year driving suspension.
