This guy is my professor for the computer science class I took last semester, and the penetration test class I'm taking this semester.
He's a grad student, not faculty, but he does teach. That's probs why he doesn't appear much on the UF website. I'd say the 28 age figure is correct.
I read through the files and I couldn't see anything beyond educational and medical discussion (Michael Link suffers from blindness, and apparently Epstein had connections to a Stanford doctor that diagnosed it). Also, he tried to get some pull from Epstein to get into the MIT grad program (unsuccessful because he's at UF)
That said, I don't believe he was affiliated with Epstein beyond ordinary professional aspects. I've spoken to him (I say "I've" as in some of his students), and he's been very transparent about it. His dad was a civil lawyer who worked with Epstein (civil lawyer, not criminal).
Apparently, he also spoke about this last semester with a few students, which I think was before these files mentioning him released.
I don't believe he is a pedophile. He never struck me as one (what do pedophiles even look like?). But yeah, he never gave me the creeps. He's actually a great professor if you look at his past ratemyprof scores.
All the servers are linked, sending and receiving data to each other. If someone makes an account, post, comment, or community; it gets sent to every other server that's running Lemmy. This allows someone from different servers to interact with each other.
This comment I'm making is actually an example of this. I am from lemmy.world, but you are from lemmy.ca as shown from our usernames. Because both our servers are talking to each other, I am allowed to see and interact with you.
Posts from lemmy.ca should be able to show up for everyone else, and lemmy.world is not like r/all, they both see the same stuff. Although it's possible to only view data from your own server by selecting "local" at the top of the page.
It's like usenet if you have experience with that.
To be fair, the way it's currently implemented is not the most user friendly. By default, only local posts from your server show up. You need to manually select "all" or "subscribed" to view posts outside of your server. It also makes it hard for users to choose which server to make an account on. Some servers even hide some stuff like downvotes, which is what Beehaw does.
Password protect your services, set up your web server correctly, use cloudflare for some extra security against stuff like DDoS/DoS attacks. Also less is more, do not expose what you don't need to expose.
There is always inherent risk with opening up your stuff to the world wide web.
Some stuff you can't even secure yourself; some services just have bad security practices. The only way to fix them would be to wait for an update or submit a pull request.
People were hosting nefarious sites and services using their port forwarding, which brought law enforcement to them, IPs being blacklisted, and hosting providers cancelling them.
Really hope they add it back in the future. AirVPN has been great so far, but their mobile app is kind of ass (I'm also using the VPN for some other stuff outside of torrenting).

I loved the new Reddit UI, I should not have to click images to enlarge them. Really hope Lemmy gets something similar.
Yep, everyone can see it. If you want, you can actually host your own Lemmy server dedicated to spandex hamsters.
I just found this neat little graph if you want a visual aid: https://imgur.com/a/uyoYySY

Eweka + NZBGeek Eweka has a massive sale, but I can't find it because it's on a privated Reddit sub.
Really hope they add it back in the future. AirVPN has been great so far, but their mobile app is kind of ass (I'm also using the VPN for some other stuff outside of torrenting).
I've been hearing great stuff about ProtonVPN, might as well try it out.
My other option was Windscribe, which I heard was good.
