$. Almost every reason for shutting off boils down to lack of financial support to keep it running.
As long as I can still make my character look like a 65 year old gender fluid meth addict I’ll play it.
If I wanted to do this today I would use iTunes and an old iPhone as the mp3 player. I would use an old laptop to rip, or iTunes to purchase.
The only thing worse than a single database server is servers poorly maintained database servers. The idea was right, but maybe the implementation was wrong.
I manage storage systems as part of my day job. i think you would be happy with a simple direct attached storage device. You’d need a storage controller card and a storage controller. These are usually enterprise-grade items so they might be expensive. I suspect there are SATA options but SATA is pretty slow.
QNAP and Synology are decent for what they offer, if you like the idea if turning it on, setting up an account, and then having access to both native and an easy 3rd-party store with no fiddling needed then they are a good idea. You can also setup an iSCSI connection for direct-attached storage over the network.
It’s used for out of band management. With the correct hardware items (nic and gpu) it’s called vPro. With the proper certificate and supporting infrastructure it can auto-enroll into a management service such as SCCM. It allows companies to remotely view logs, bios settings and other items. With vPro it can include a complete remote KVM solution.
You can disable it from most UEFI settings interfaces without worry of causing other issues.
120 is the lower limit for killing stuff off. Not much will live or grow at a sustained 120.
I leave mine at 120 and every Sunday it kicks up to 135 for an hour for peace of mind.
I just looked they have a service called “alternative port 25” that addresses this issue.
Honestly though, once you start adding up costs for these workarounds you have to wonder if it’s easier to just get a business internet circuit, cloud security gateway, or just host the email online.
You can use a port reflector service. No ip.com might still offer it. Basically forwards anything incoming to their ip on port 25 to your ip and whatever port you specify.
@postmalone you’re a NERD
For rather cheap I can see what traffic is suspicious. If you throw more resources at the problem and scale up it becomes simple to see traffic that looks like dns over https without having to decrypt it. Indicators such as size, frequency, consistent traffic going from your host to your DoH provider and then traffic going to other parts of the internet….these patterns become easy to establish. Once you have a good idea that a host on the internet is a DoH provider you can drop it into that category and block it.
there is a lot more to modern firewall app detection than ports. My Palo Alto has a specific category to detect and block dns over https.
It’s trivial for me to detect and block dns over https with modern firewalls.
1st: fire hazard, code violations, insurance won’t pay out.
2nd: This is fine for maybe a shed or ADU but when you start doing this to a home and start thinking big picture, there are some questions that come up, such as most of the cost in solar is the labor. If you’re already mounting panels, inverters, wiring, why not go the extra steps to install solar for the home and gain back a lot more costs when the sun is shining? Why mess around with a small window a/c when for the same amount of work (or less) you can install a mini split with better efficiency?
Consoles will never go away. Even Xbox, effectively a pc, exists.
I suspect it’s because of controllers, ease of use, and cost.
Would it heat up the oceans: yes.
Significantly:no.
If this pans out it would be a lot better than what we are doing now.
Most of the moon knight comic memes are fake.
Boomers living to 150 is going to be awful.
An hvac company that is able to adopt AI for 1st call processing and scheduling will be able to eliminate a number of jobs and remain open 24x7. They will undercut their local competitors, and the hvac techs will find themselves out of a job or working for their competitor soon.
Small companies won’t be able to compete.
I’m all for this but we need to offset these immense productivity gains with economic safety nets. I don’t know how the next 100 year will look if we don’t adopt UBI, universal healthcare, and some amount of subsidized housing.
Pay for that?
