I use nextdns on my network and there’s a filter there for smart tvs. Samsung seems to want to call home the most.

Which is why the “y’all” usage here is triggering me.

Or, you know, it’s fake…

They got to the kitchen, got the ingredients and then balanced them and then responded within 1 minute?

Work fine for finding locally if in Bluetooth range. Not good for finding lost things outside of that. I lost some keys in July last year. Still not found since then.

Apples biggest benefit is the sheer number of phones that can help locate lost items. I was hoping Androids Find my Device network to be the same but currently it’s really lacking.

The Pixel Buds don’t ship with a cable either.

Not worth it. The PS5 games catalogue is piss poor compared to when the PS4 Pro released.

Hello fellow web surfers. I am finally joining you on the internet super highway. A/S/L?

Ha. That’s my bad. I didn’t even read the firewall rules listing 22/SSH. I agree on not opening 22 to the world. It just invites bots throwing passwords at it.

I just read Minecraft in the original post which from reading runs from 25565 which I wouldn’t worry about. If OP needs 22 for admission I’d either whitelist it or use a VPN/Tailscale.

I love my bed. I do though sit on the floor in the lounge. I vary better the floor and the sofa. I find it comfortable.

I think it stemmed from when I was younger. My mum was quite obsessive with being tidy. To not mess up the sofa and cushions,.I’d just sit on the floor.

I live in the UK where generally our lounges are carpeted so it’s not a solid floor. Our weather is typical crap though so it’s due to being hot.

More effort than I would consider. I’d just allow all traffic incoming on that port. I’d only consider whitelist if someone was giving me grief. Even then that would be after blacklisting an IP wasn’t solving my problem.

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?

Are you purposely saying “remembers” wrong or do you think the actual word is “members”?

Can’t wait to play this. Astros Playroom was the best game I’ve played on the PS5.

The PS5 has been a big disappointment for me. Certainly after the PS4 which was a huge success with so many good releases. The only games I’ve been playing on the PS5 are updated PS4 games.

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

I’d have thought Google is more invasive than Apple? I say this as an Android user…

The music to this game is ingrained into my head
