You Don't Need to Keep Every Electronic Box!

Just cleaned out mt garage, closet, and attic. No clue why I kept every single box of anything electronic/tech based in the last ten years. I just tossed boxes for phones I haven’t had in years, old CPU and heat sync boxes, boxes for 100mbps nics, old modems I don’t have anymore. I’ve never needed any of these and have...

Lol - I had the same problem for many years, until I finally decided to clean them out like you did.

My policy now is to keep them for a month or so before tossing them. That’s arguably when they’re most likely to break down and I’d still need to ship/take them somewhere in their original packaging.

I’m intrigued. How do you deploy apps in your homelab, presumably with some needing access externally, and still maintain privilege separation for each of them?

I use containerization as the new chroot jail, as well as for rapid (re)deployment capability. I can easily spin up or tear down services I might want to test or play with, and having separate containers for everything means I can create very specific rules and routes for each service as required.

In fact, a lot (not all) of my services are docker stacks running in their own LXCs on Proxmox. Containerception.

Be wary of spiteful Reddit users ( kbin.social )

In the past week and a half, I've noticed Reddit behaviors starting to try and poison all of the places that people are taking refuge in to get away from the toxicity, myself included. They've started to DDoS Lemmy for a while, which is a Reddit thing to do and what they're notorious of doing whenever they feel they don't like...

Are you OK mate? Like, seriously, are you OK? It sounds like you’re very preoccupied with Reddit. Just do what a lot of us recent Lemmy joiners have done - delete your account and never visit that shithole again.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Ok mate. Whatever. You’re the one coming off like a fucking lunatic fruitloop with all the “ReDdiT aRe ouT tO gET Us” bullshit.

Now who’s projecting? I, like most of us here, just DGAF about Reddit. You’re the one harping on about it.

Calm the fuck down. Dickhead.
