Microdistricts were good… new stuff is usually an unplanned cash grab.


How do you handle connectivity from outside your home network (when you're at the grocery store for example)? Do you have a VPN running?


Not OP but regularly access my home network remotely. I have an Asus RT-AX86U which has a lot of features in the stock firmware, including OpenVPN configuration. If I need "LAN" access to my home network, I will open the OpenVPN client and then it will just work, this is useful to access things like local samba shares or SSH into my Linux machines (I was dissatisfied with the log spam of having an open SSH port even with fail2ban and router level protections).

If you have an always running server and only need access via a browser, forwarding port 80/443 to a reverse proxy works well. Dynamic DNS can be used if you don't have a static IP address. Alternatively, if you are more security conscious and don't mind the reliance on CloudFlare, you can use CloudFlare tunnel which won't expose ports from you local network at all. It can also be combined with a third party authentication mechanism.


Not OP but I use syncthing for such things.


Also not OP but I use tailscale for this. It's fantastically easy.


Tailscale + syncthing, works like a charm


>Can't connect to people's existing Plex servers.

Right, Jellyfin has nothing to do with Plex other than competing with it. It's not a Plex client.


Usually some kind of string search works. If it's frontend then search a string that's on the feature. If it's backend search a string for table name, http error messages, anything like that.


What's another website that feels more like the old internet than 4chan?



Has a guestbook, old internet confirmed.


You can see this at work all day on /pol/ as well.


"/pol/"?


That format refers to 4chan boards. That one is “pol(itics)”

Who cares.


I see what you did there

Cool, looks pretty clean! By the way, the "Popular" hashtags on the right are not changing the page when I click on them. Nothing happens.


Dune is such a great book, but for some reason I found it "work" to read. Still worth it though.


Why do you think we rely on Israel for regional influence? I'd say it's the other way around.


I think its symbiotic. Israel get weapons and support, the United States gets an ally in the Middle East.


It's evident when every other Google project gets cancelled. Most recently Stadia I believe.
