[Discussion] Should we defederate exploding-heads.com? (Closing arguments)
  • The Unite The Right rally was not in fact a Republican March to support Donald Trump, it was a neo-Nazi rally to protest the tearing down of Confederate statues. These two are not related. Stalin being a leftist does not make leftists genocidal Russian dictators.

    Nazis and Republicans wave very different flags.

  • Is it safe to open ports 80 and 443 in my home network?

    Hi all, I'm running a small website off of a raspberry pi in my house. I have opened ports 80 and 443 and connected my IP to a domain. I'm pretty confident in my security for my raspberry pi (no password ssh, fail2ban, nginx. Shoutout networkchuck.). However, I am wondering if by exposing my ports to the raspberry pi, I am also exposing those same ports to other devices in my home network, for example, my PC. I'm just a bit unsure if port forwarding to an internal IP would also expose other internal IP's or if it only goes to the pi. If you are able to answer or have any other comments about my setup, I would appreciate your comment. Thanks!

    Is there a problem with keeping the backend of an NGINX server in /var/www ?

    Hi all. I'm looking to make a backend in my NGINX server, for a website that only gets a few views. Right now I'm managing the files of the site using Git, with /var/www/ as the folder on github. I'm looking to create an ip logger to plot onto a map, and I'm wondering if there are any problems with hosting it on /var/www. My main concerns are if it's accessible to other users or if it'll slow down NGINX. I'm absolutely able to do it in another folder, but I am wondering if there are any problems with keeping any files in /var/www. To my knowledge, only past /var/www/html is viewable by a connection.

    Thanks!

    Require email or captcha until this is resolved?
  • Definitely captcha. Email anonymity is nice, and I don't want to sign up with my email to everything.

    If there is going to be a captcha tho, use hCaptcha or one of the cloudflare ones. Google captcha is just free labor for developing AI and I don't think anyone wants to keep contributing to that.

  • Which distro are you using right now?
  • The trackpad and the drivers. Doing anything that has to be precise on a laptop is a lot harder than on desktop IMO. So I installed endeavour because its an arch install, without the install part

  • Me, observing the beauty in nature

    It seems that, the more I stay online and tuned in to every event, the more im tuned out of the real world happening around me. Take a moment to appreciate the simplicity of the life around you. We weren't built to sit infront of a photon blaster all day 🚵🧘

    What is http://itjust.works?

    I was surprised to visit itjust.works (without the sh.) and find an IT company. How did the url sh.itjust.works come to be, amazing name and all?

    How do you guys use a distro that doesn't have the AUR (or equivalent?)

    I know I said in my last post I'm a noob, and, i still am, I'm just a noob who can follow a YouTube tutorial. I installed Arch, not only for its minimalistic install, but also because I love the AUR. Everything I could ever want to install is there, and anyone who wants to upload their files can. This gives a windows-like install experience, which, pardon my... spanish, is actually pretty good. Any program is free to be uploaded and installed by anyone.

    My question to you is: If you do not use an arch-based distro, how do you go about installing software? I've heard people say that "the default package manager is enough" but I can't be the only person who installs niche software. I wouldn't want to only be able to install packages hopefully approved by my distro. Flatpaks are kind of annoying, in my opinion? It's not a native install of a package, it's sandboxed (which can be good in some cases, but in general just an inconvenience.) Compiling from source is too hardcore for me, so props if that is you, however, non-FOSS software has to be moved by hand to its specific folders and .desktop files have to be made by text. If you don't use the AUR, how do you go about your Linux experience?

    P.S. Hope you like the new sux/teal logo!

    Im kindof a noob but I love linux

    Such a cool piece of software. Use this community for anything related to linux for now, if it gets too huge maybe there will be some sort of meme/gaming/shitpost spinoff. Currently though... go nuts
