I see a lot of people have big meta thoughts and feelings. But mine is relatively small. I find that I live in a different reality since a lot of co-experienced events are remembered differently by the others. Let’s say a work meeting, when I think that it was a nice calm and friendly meetig others are heated and steaming by all the insults. The same with emails and other communications Also with a sportmatches. For instance when I really enjoyed a match and thought both teams did a nice job of performing, the media paints a vastly different picture where one team was really awful and performed well belowed standards.

So my perception of reality seems really of from the rest of the population.

Why do they think they can do this? I mean, sure most corporations suck. But you don’t have to do business with them. Especially not if you don’t want to follow their rules.

Blocking outgoing traffic isn’t needed. But was mere a headsup if that is something you’ve alread setup. What router do you have? Usually when you open a port there is a dropdown menu or checkboxes for what kind of connection the port opening is allowed.

If your forgejo host needs to connect to the outside world, you can open the port for incomming traffic only for related and established traffic. That way when somebody wants to connect to your port as a new connection it will fail. So when somebody has bad intentions, it will not work unless you’ve already connected to them in the first place. You need to permit outgoing traffic from forgejo if you block outgoing traffic.

Roger, Roger.

Yes, because dinosaurs and dragons shirley can’t be from imagination or stories. Please hand me a bible so I can wrap my arms around it.

Yes, I do. Sometimes I disagree with something but I know my opinion will not be appreciated and I will be called names for just a different opinion. Often, it’s not that I out those opinions in public but I just think them to myself but let other people be as they are. But that nuance will not come across online.

As far as I understand it, the screenshot is from a “sovereign citizen” which got a ticket for something. He is very smart because he filed a “countersuit” to the government to show he is subject to their laws and a citizen of the United States. If they do not do that within 15 days, my guy gets 5 million. He also wants a restraining order for all of the US police, so they can’t get near him.

That’s what I could make out with my limited knowledge about sovereign citizens and all that.

I needed to read this twice and the comment of @sxan to understand what this was about…

Good to know it doesn’t have all the functions. Feels more and more that they would like to make money out of it. Which is fine, but then I feel less inclined to help them serve the fediverse.

Ah, that’s what my guess was. It couldn’t be that people just gave up on hosting it.

That’s funny I just looked at your site and vacancies today. I do not qualify for any of those spots though. You’ve got an impressive amount of services build up. Keep up the good work!

I was there when a plane crashed on the airport where I live.

I was there when a car cought fire on the highway.

I was there when the fediverse “exploded”.

Man, my life is boring.

Thanks, I was also doubting about Hugo but came about writefreely as well.

Does your girlfriend use your devices or accounts? Seems very strange to me that they would do that. Or they want to fuck you over even more by making it less easy to deny that you didn’t create that account since the password is linked to you/your girlfriend. But then again, LE would need to be made aware of the password before that makes sense.

Okay, treating this seriously. No: triple triple = 333 333 333. Triple triple triple = 333 333 333 333 333 333 333 333 333.

This is something that happens in every war, but it’s difficult in this particular one since there is a very slim chance other countries will come to the rescue. So it’s all up to the Ukrainians themselves to cope with this thread/war.

In that case, enjoy! It’s a great feeling when you get it working.

If you’re going to do it on your synology, see if you need to fix the TUN error. Also, you need to add ip routes to your synology to have the IP’s from your VPN on docker forwarded to docker. Make sure these are persistent or added on every startup.

Make sure you allow the VPN to work by adding it to the synology firewall.

You need to setup port forwarding on your router. It needs to point to your synology to the port which is linked to the docker container. You also need to add the route to your router to be able to access your network. For instance, if your VPN has 10.0.3.* and your LAN uses 10.0.0., your LAN/router won’t know where to send the response packets to the VPN network. So when connected to your VPN you will never be able to load stuff. If you add that 10.0.3. needs to route to your synology, and your synology knows that range needs to be routed to the Docker VPN container everybody knows where it needs to go.

Tailscale is (like) a VPN, but traffic will go through their servers. If you setup your own VPN server then traffic will remain between your client and your own server.

Did you setup port forwarding and routing tables when you installed your VPN server?.

The Synology VPN package is lacking behind a lot, so you could be missing some security updates.

If you use a VPN to hide your services, you reduce your attack/risk. Since there is only one package/software suite which could’ve vulnerabilties. And VPN’s are focussed on security. If you expose all your hosted stuff, all those programs need to be secure to prevent abuse. And not everybody is as skilled to build it securily.

I would recommend, for you, to use something like tailscale. Since you seem like someone at the beginning of their safety journey. With setting up a VPN server, you need to know a little bit what your doing to make it secure and work. And you could invest time to learn it all, or you could use something that does it for you. Another, not so wise, advise could be to use a docker container to host the VPN. Most containers have all settings correctly setup and have guides to make it secure. But that means you don’t know what you installed and that could be a bad thing as well. Furthermore, docker adds to the complexity of making it work.

In Europe and Finland there are a lot of undocumented immigrants. It’s in the news as well. This is news because it’s from Russia through a border which should be closed fully.
