Can I faraday cage my ISP-issued router in order to use my own?
  • See if your ISP can set their router to bridged mode, then you should be able to use your own while plugged into their equipment. It will turn all the functionality off on it so you won't be doubled natted and traffic should flow properly.

  • Disney+ to launch ad-backed version in Canada this year, while raising price for other tiers | CBC News
  • Honestly, I miss the golden age of streaming. But now that it's gone and we are basically stuck with cable, I'm cancelling all my accounts, I cancelled Netflix last year, prime early this year. Never had crave, it was basically garbage since it was introduced.

  • How did you get your job? Any advice?
  • OK, You have a degree

    What is your experience like?

    What is your field in tech?

    What make you senior?

    Another important question, where are you located? This can make a huge difference, if you are looking in a small town for senior tech jobs then you aren't going to get much.

    Right now, tech jobs aren't doing well since companies over hired, then decided to shed those positions. But Senior positions are usually always in demand.

  • How did you get your job? Any advice?
  • You've been looking for work for 3 years? Have you been out of work for 3 years? If you've been out of work for 3 years, what type of tech do you do?

    Infrastructure? Administrator? Developer? Security?

    Have any certifications? HR likes to see those even if they are basic ones.

    Since it's been 3 years, have you been keeping your skills up to date? Tech changes so rapidly, take for example, I completed my AZ-305 2 years ago, since then I've had to renew twice and each time the test has new stuff. Azure tech changes constantly.

    My current position is Senior Consultant, I got it by leaving a different position and contracting for a few years. A big consulting firm scooped me up on my second contract.

  • ABC shuts down official Twitter accounts due to 'toxic interactions'
  • I agree, it was definitely there, but wasn't promoted. Now, when I go there, I'll get notifications that someone posted.... Someone I don't follow and the post is hate filled garbage. In my notifications of all places.

    The front page isn't people I follow anymore, that's in a different tab under Following. It's not the default tab.

  • Is there a business in your town, which you are 100% sure is a front?
  • Theres a video rental place down the way from me in Vancouver, BC. First, Vancouver is expensive as hell. Our average 1 bdrm is roughly 3k a month. This guy has a prime location, in Vancouver, on a busy street, with a video rental store. Who rents movies these days? Maybe some, but surely not enough to keep him afloat. It's not an adult video store either.

  • Actor Paul Reubens, of PeeWee Herman fame, dead at 70
  • From the article

    Then in 2004, Reubens was sentenced to three years probation after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor obscenity charge involving photographs of minors engaged in sexual conduct were seized from him

  • Are transfer speeds tied to internet speed?
  • If your server is local, meaning it is on your network, then you connect via the local netowork. If you are both wired, then you'll likely be connected via 1Gbe. If you server is wired, and you connect wirelessly, you are limited by the wireless connection speed. If your jellyfin server is remote, meaning physically hosted offsite, then you will be limited by your internet speed and the speed of the jellyfin servers connection.

    If the connection is local and its dropping, check out your jellyfin servers resources to see bottlenecks. Also see if you can check your tplink router and see if the CPU is spiking.

  • This man bought 2 Flair tickets to Florida but the flight didn't exist
  • Flair was the one who flew from Toronto to Saskatoon, realized it couldn't land because of construction (even tho they should have known) turned around and landed in Winnipeg. Kept everyone on the plane for 10 hrs, with no food and only water from the bathroom (not potable). Then flew everyone back to Toronto instead of their destination. RCMP had to be called in Winnipeg because people were pissed after 10 hrs.

  • where do the instances actually reside?
  • I'd be hesitant to run it at your own house. While you can use a cloudflare tunnel, I'd never expose anything in my home network to the outside.

    Digital ocean is cheap, there's another called hetzner which looks also pretty cheap. So you start will rent 1 core VPS for 5 bucks, it's enough to run your own instance but not really enough to host any communities.

  • How to create a Lemmy Instance using AWS or some kind of cloud service?
  • How are your Linux skills?

    You'll need a domain name to start. If you plan on hosting any communities, you'll want to secure it as well, I'd recommend a cloudflare account, use their DNS proxy and then only allow traffic from cloudflare cdns so as not to expose your server directly. You'll also want to configure the Web application firewall to block bots, known malicious IPs, that kind of stuff. To manage this, you'll have to host your DNS in cloudflare and create and install an origin certificate on your host server.

    If you are comfortable with Linux and command line (you'll want to know at least the basics to get you by), then you can deploy via ansible. Lemmy has a nice little doc that mostly covers everything.

    Feel free to ping me if you have some questions.

    Oh and if you are having your instance send mail, you can use the service built in, but it'll get flagged as spam. You'll need either a SMTP relay service like sendgrid or SPF records so that receiving email servers can verify its coming from your domain.

  • While he didnt have a private army, he had hordes of angry armed people that he pointed toward the capital. He knew he lost the election and was trying to steal it with fake electors and the storming of the capital. While it's not the same situation, he definitely DID try to overthrow the government and he IS still walking free.
