By the upvotes it is clear that our readers agree with you, but I’m more than happy to go on record saying your philosophy is empirically invalidated by the fact that you are posting this.
I saw this reply coming… to say that we should protect kids — without explicitly calling out trans kids — does not water down their plight in any way. Please guys, let’s leave that kind of decisiveness to Reddit and focus on where we agree and not where we disagree.
I like iOS shortcuts. This week, I created an iOS shortcut to scan my Plex library. Now this may seem weird since there is an option to scan a library from the official Plex iOS app and there are also options to scan the library automatically or periodically. For various reasons (excuses), I didn't like that the official app only lets you scan one library at a time and I have automatic/periodic scans turned off to avoid network drive access, so I created the shortcut to scan from my phone any time I felt like I wanted to trigger it.
This video was terribly hard to get through but the thesis could be summarized as “tech folks want a country that enables them to do tech things and make more money”… ya, duh.
I tend to agree. Don't blow this out of proportion. If you dig deep enough, you will not like the CEO of ANY company... so don't let some comments from the CEO of Proton get you worked up.
Anyone else like me—who is not a Facebook/Instagram user—learning for the first time that these things could not be said before?
Don’t get me wrong, I was taught better than that and anyone who says this stuff is a loser. Just never knew before this story that those posts/comments were blocked.
5). Hey OP, don't worry, this can seem kind of scary at first, but it is not that difficult. I've skimmed some of the other comments and there are plenty of good tips here.
2). Yes, you will want your own domain and there is no fear of other people "knowing it" if you have everything set up correctly.
1b). Any cheap VPS will do and you don't need to worry about it being virtualized rather than dedicated. What you really care about is bandwidth speed and limits because a reverse proxy is typically very light on resources. You would be surprised how little CPU/memory it needs.
1a). I use a cheap VPS from RackNerd. Once you have access to your VPS, just install your proxy directly into the OS or in Docker. Whichever is easier. The most important thing for choosing a reverse proxy is automatic TLS/Let's Encrypt. I saw a comment from you about certbot... don't bother with all that nonsense. Either Traefik, Caddy, or Nginx Proxy Manager (not vanilla Nginx) will do all this for you--I personally use Traefik unless for some reason I can't. Way less headaches. The second most important thing to decide is how your VPS in the cloud will connect back to your home securely... I personally use Tailscale for that and it works perfectly fine.
3). Honestly, I think Fail2Ban and geo restrictions are overdoing it. Fail2ban has never gotten me any lift because any sort of modern brute force attack will come from a botnet that has 1000s of unique IPs... never triggering Fail2ban because no repeat offenders. Just ensure your VPS has a firewall enabled and you know what ports you are exposing from Docker and you should be good. If your services don't natively support authentication, look into something like Authelia or Authentik. Rather than Fail2Ban and/or geo restrictions, I would be more inclined to suggest a WAF like Caddy WAF before I reached for geo restrictions. Again, assuming your concern is security, a WAF would do way more for you than IP restrictions which are easily circumvented.
If you were using derp servers with Tailscale/Headscale, that would explain why it was slow.
You win the Most Confusing Title award.
TL;DR: she works on the speech to text AI product on Azure, which is used by Israel for some of their operations.
Look, I understand her desire to stop fighting in Palestine, but by that logic, we should also be protesting every software and computer manufacturer.

How ‘bout we protect all kids?

Was literally updating my filtered words just now. I use Voyager app on iOS and it can be done in the settings.

Dogs and cats, living together. Mass hysteria!

“Total Chaos” feels a bit overblown…
Thanks for your … er… um… reply? I guess? For what seems like a response to a different question than the one asked?
Nice try... North Korea. j/k. IDK man, because I watched "The Undeclared War". Give it a look.
Several other comments called me out for the same thing and you are right, I didn't mean to imply that there are not domestic bad actors also.
