I have a couple of services, including nginx (a website) that run though a Cloudflare Tunnel. No need to open up ports and certificates are automatically managed.

I also use ddclient to update my own personal domain with my internets dynamic IP (no need for a dynamic DNS provider). I have to do this as I host Jellyfin and Cloudflare don’t support streaming through their tunnels. So yes this is exposed to the internet. It does sit behind a caddy reverse proxy though.

I also run a wireguard VPN so that I can dial in when out the home. Im in Spain next week so can use that to get BBC iPlayer etc. The wireguard uses an address that is dynamically updated by ddclient (domain is hosted by Cloudflare)

Emails I don’t bother self hosting. I actually pay for simplelogin and send emails there via aliases. They then route to a single Proton email address.

Now?

I use PipePipe too. Also has SponserBlock inbuilt. Make sure you enable it though.

Alternatively, Firefox and uBlock Origin works.

Doesn’t work for YouTube

hilarious? 🤔

Wonder if it’s a region thing. Not there for me either (UK).

They should update the Chrome extension to tell people to download Firefox instead

Bunch of cunts

I swear I read about how some companies have managed to come up with some break through to charge or increase battery capacity every few months, yet these are never make it to market.

I’m not so sure. Once they are embedded in the video they become hard to block. Twitch is like this now.

Not really helping you here. But when I started using Google Photos, I still manually downloaded files from my phone to local storage. I did this mainly to ensure I have the original copies of my photos and not some compressed image. Turns out that was a wise move as exporting photos from Google is a pretty damned awful experience.

That’s the annoying thing here. Everyone, particularly Lemmy where everyone runs Linux and FOSS, thinks this is a Microsoft/Windows issue. It’s not, it’s a Crowdstrike issue.

Because all software runs from Linux right…

I guess it depends on numbers too. We had 200 to work on. If you’re talking hundreds more than looking at automation would be a better solution. In our scenario it was just easier to throw engineers at it. I honestly thought at first this was my weekend gone but we got through them easily in the end.

Ha! Yes. Same issue. Clicking Reset in vSphere and then quickly switching tabs to hold down F8 has been a ball ache to say the least!

Sadly not. Windows doesn’t boot. You can boot it into safe mode with networking, at which point maybe with anaible we could login to delete the file but since it’s still manual work to get windows into safe mode there’s not much point

I’ve just spent the past 6 hours booting into safe mode and deleting crowd strike files on servers.

I’ve configured my kids devices to use NextDNS, that way they are getting filtering no matter what network they use.

AdGuard does what I need internally, it’s just external is the issue. VPN’s are not a solution, my kids are old enough to know they can just disable it to work around it. They don’t know about the Private DNS option that I have configured on their devices… Yet
