I second the idea of a VPN instead of directly exposing devices or software to the internet. Requires more work and learning but it’s more secure. I would argue that well-known VPNs are more scrutinized and pentested than any camera software ever.
Where is Captain Planet?
I’m rebooting my router every week via a crontab because some dynamic dns update process fails from time to time and I find it hanging. No time to debug the actual problem.
No, logins should be harder in order to be secure. Hence the addition of 2FA (which is also incompatible with your proposal).
As developers, we strive to make things more secure, not less, and unfortunately, good security always comes with the trade-off of less convenience for the user (larger entropy passwords, session expiration, captchas, etc).
Now, of course, it depends on how sensible the data in that account is. I wouldn’t want this for my email account, for example, or online password manager, which are the entry gates to all my other accounts. The Kagi search engine offers the possibility to login on another device via a session URL which you can copy-paste. And this is fine, if the site / app clearly states the dangers, implemented it securely, tracks and lists the sessions and allows you to invalidate a session for all devices, and you are fine with potentially disclosing the data for that account (forgetting to log out, or disclose the session URL somewhere) - which is not much, as they don’t log the searches, only the daily counts. And their use-case makes sense, people aren’t used to authenticating in order to search something on the internet.
So, this should be an optional feature offering from the website / app, not built-in in the browser which would make it trivial to be abused by anyone.
Hmm. Interesting extension. But for me, not being a heavy Youtube consumer, think I prefer to see the original title and clickbait thumbnail so I can avoid the over-the-top clickbaity stuff easier and not waste my time or give them bastards a view.
Well, I did not expect this.
Ave Caesar! We attack at midnight.
Yo, why no love for md5?
Turris Omnia. Powerful hardware, auto updates, config backup / restore (with anti-bricking feature), SIM slot, etc
Generally, you aren’t allowed by law an official managing position without a college degree, that’s true. But that would reflect on the job title, not pay or benefits. In my company, if you’re good, you’ll be acknowledged.
Depends on the field. For example, in IT, competence can be tested. Especially when a large percent of job positions aren’t filled with people that got a degree in that field. I have dev colleagues with psychology degrees and whatnot and one that only finished highschool, that are better programmers than others I know that do have an IT college degree. Good programmers are hard to come by, and the main aspect that makes you one isn’t a college degree at all.
And do you really need college too, to learn how to learn?
My point is, I have programmer colleagues that have a psychology degree or none at all. Do you think that they “learned how to learn” programming in college? No, they are good programmers because that is their passion. Learning doesn’t have a single recipe.
I sometimes interview what could be people that will write code in my team. The college part in their resumes has zero importance to me, and I’d argue that it should be the norm. If we’d do the “college degree mandatory” when posting a job offer, like many companies idiotically do, we’d lose a lot of good candidates just because they wouldn’t be able to apply.
Well, and it’s stupid. Plenty of people without a college degree stay for years and grow in the same company.
Excuse my ignorance, I don’t know much about 3D printer material types / filament resistance, but from a few 3D printed cases for small devices I had, isn’t the plastic brittle? Or the joints of layers. Especially for a long cylinder shape where force is going to be applied to. I dropped 2 cases on the floor and they broke in multiple pieces where 2 layers of filament joined. But granted, their thickness was 2-3 millimeters.
Is it just 2 Mw or is the article wrong?
As someone reading this thread, I’m stuck in an endless loop.
Holy shit, I stand corrected, those graphs speak for themselves. Bookmarked for future stats.
LE: Well, there’s also the section about average age of failure in their newest report: 2 years and 7 months for HDDs, 14 months for SSDs.
True, but it depends from person to person and it counts if you have a small or big drive, how often you watch and rotate your media, how large the media is. If you only have a 1TB SSD, and often download and watch blue-ray quality, 20 movies will fill it. It won’t be long until the same blocks get erased, no matter how much the SSDs firmware tries to spread the usage and avoid reusing the same blocks.
Anyway, my point is, aside from noise and lower power consumption advantages, I wouldn’t use SSDs for a NAS, I regard them as consumables. Speed isn’t really an issue in HDDs.
I use Hard Disk Sentinel, it’s not free, but it also monitors drives in Windows so you have an early warning at the first sign of issues. Also logs historic data (writes, temperature, etc) and displays them as graphs.
Please don’t go the RaspberryPi route for serious self-hosting, you’ll regret it later when you’ll realize it’s not powerful enough for ie NextCloud. It can handle PiHole for example (minus digging through the historical logs / stats via its interface), but when adding more and more services (Nextcloud, Jellyfin, a VPN, home automation, etc), it will be easier to expand via VMs (Proxmox) / Docker on a single machine that you need to maintain, you’d have easier snapshot backups, single point for firewall rules, etc, than adding RPIs. Buy a mini server, you’ll have flexibility, room for upgrade, and the costs and power consumption will be justified when scaling to multiple services.
