This is the way.

I do this. PFsense DNS resolver, and have loopback enabled.

DNS for all the domains points at a reverse proxy (Caddy) that handles valid HTTPS termination. So all my services have valid HTTPS certs, and devices on my network can access them normally.

Welcome to the day and age where courts have all the power :/

Like ~95% of the rest of the internet that uses cloud infrastructure.

Google, AWS, or Azure

What is your point?

If you’re not willing to engage in good faith, intelligent, discussion, please consider leaving the platform and making it a better place for the rest of us.

“I couldn’t be assed to read the article nor understand the problem, but I will assert my God given right to an ignorant opinion on it regardless”

Isn’t what this platform needs.

That’s… Largely a financials problem.

Steam: $8-10 billion/y

GOG: $80-120 million/y

Steam can throw 10 GOGs worth of resources at a problem and barely break a sweat. Yeah, of course they are making huge strides, that’s how consolidation of wealth works when that wealth is actually reinvested.

Found the Linux community admin 🤣

Damn those are some terrible distributed scaling mechanisms.

This the most tech illiterate take…

These are called query parameters. The standard part of the HTTP spec.

A huge part of the internet uses these simply as a way to instruct a page to display certain data or to display a particular view or layout of that data.

Calling for an extension to get rid of these it’s like calling for an extension to get rid of headers because websites use them to pass metadata in the same manner.

Edit: that was harsh my apologies.

Way too much for sure.

Just the business internet to get the foot in the door for a static IP 5x’s the cost of my Internet.

It’s actually cheaper to just have DC IPs and proxy through hosted containers. Which is kind of crazy.

Negative aspect is that DC IPs aren’t treated very nice.

Honestly nuclear isn’t a bad deal for that. Clean, sustainable, safe, compared to non-renewables.

Though old ass reactors seem sus.

I honestly don’t have an answer to that but from my understanding running a web tunnel from your home IP can have negative consequences in relation to your address being flagged as a public proxy.

With the potential to be added to certain automatic ban lists. But more likely than not you’ll be added to a list of potentially untrustable addresses which means you’ll be doing a lot more CAPTCHAS in the future

Well yeah that’s a problem of course but that doesn’t negate the reasoning I stated in other areas of this thread.

I’m not promoting trust in a central authority or government here that’s a separate problem that exists on an entirely different plane.

Yes you who probably has some amount of critical thinking skills can do that. The majority of young generational individuals today, cannot. Which largely negates the “well they should get gud” argument. It’s a systematic problem, you can’t solve systematic problems that way…

I’m not going to repeat myself though, my last paragraph in the previous message is a fairly succinct tldr. This is a principal that’s been applied and works across industries, and is critically important for building “safe systems”

Safe systems being systems that are designed to be operated and interacted with safely. There is a practical infinite number of safe systems that you can find examples of to further drive my point home. We can design systems that provide safety from human behavior and failings, the largest obstacle is usually both the political aspect and the aspect of individuals who refuse to acknowledge that safe systems are important.

Stop feeding the trolls…

End users really need to just be more skeptical.

That’s… The opposite of a solution.

This is how you make systemic problems worse, not better.

Humans are largely morons, you can’t fix this. But you can fix the systems they interact with to avoid their vulnerabilities from being taken advantage of.

It’s frozen for features and changes. Even bugs & issues are shrugged off and closed unless they are big. PRs from others as well I’ve seen.

The maintainer is semi active, but they’re kind of a dick, and tend to minimize problems and downplay others in ways that are borderline toxic.

It’s a shame :/

I like how you just conveniently ignore the part about a dictator oppression.

The key word here is oppression.

A country that is closing its eyes and deserves what they’re going to get is the US. In 20 or 30 years when the US is an authoritarian oppressive State then at that point the people don’t have a choice, just like they don’t in Russia today.

Authoritarian oppressive states don’t just let the people think what they want to think. You are groomed and indoctrinated the moment you receive education until the day you die. The easiest way to control a populace is for the populace to not even know they’re being controlled.

A key factor to that is limiting and restricting access to outside information. Which is what Russia does which is why the Tor project is so important

Maybe our company is an odd one out but I’m pretty sure that number is more like 20-30%…

Out of a team of 10, 2 of us do about 50% of the work. 3 do about 30%, and the remaining five do about 20%… With probably two to three of them doing effectively nothing most of the time.

In our team isn’t abnormal.

It’s only going to get worse year over year as we move towards a dystopian corporation ran future.

The U.S. leading the pack on testing how much a rich person can get away with while directly interfering with a d profiting from the government, which is funded by the people.

It’s just another grift, but this time in the open, corporate sponsored politicians being elected as presidents is going to become the norm. The only thing it takes is money to influence an undereducated populace.

Guessing it’s not a dead/halted project?

No you pretty much have this wrong in fundamental way.

These websites are not using you to train their models. Google is using these websites to use you to train Google’s models.
