1999

I got a cable modem for my birthday that year. Ha!

No speed caps, and I hit a whopping 4Mbps download. It was faster than the local highschool. Sweeeeet.

There are some really efficient systems out there, but power requirements depend a lot on what is run.

A simple website is very different that a photo gallery running content ID for example.

Should I worry?

I've had this stuff in logs since the late 90's. It was concerning at first, but port scanning and scripts are the internet's background static now.

Is this normal internet behaviour?

Yup. Welcome to self hosting!

Should I expect even worse kinds of attacks?

Not that it will happen, but good security expects attacks. I like to say "Obscurity is not security."

What can I do to improve security on my website and try to block these kinds of requests/attacks?

As these scrips are targeting code you don't run, they can be ignored relatively safely.

You can take a couple steps to lock things down like not responding to ping on WAN (less enticing to port scanning) locking down firewall settings, geolocation blocking, authentication, etc.

That said, if the script changed to something you DO host, you may be in for a bad day. Good to stay on top of security patches in that case.

Google reeeeally thrilled at handing over $60,000,000 licensing reddit content for search now.

Lmao.

Not sure I'll answer your question, but I would think the root folder would be /movies so I'd double check those settings. You may have to manually specify /movies/Star wars an another root folder.

If that is all set up right, I believe the *arr apps organize media too. You may have a user/app conflict with your file structure so you'd have to do all that manually.

AI is a plaque upon housing in America.

It's the first thing after the title. At least it wasn't an AI article I suppose.

You can use an expansion unit DX517 to add more dives or upgrade existing to larger ones if you use some form of Raid/SHR.

The swap-drive-and-rebuild-array route can take it's sweet time.

Pedestrians were not part of this study.

This is my hunch too. Perhaps the UI is more distracting with Tesla's implementation of screens/menus/feedback for car functions too.

Just pointing out the study emphasize occupant fatalities which I take as to exclude external fatalities such as other vehicles.

Edit edit: perhaps my comment was irrelevant. OP is specifying Google Cloud specifically.

I have 10Gbit and hunted that whale. But I didn't build my own router. Electricity is $0.51 Kw/h. Ouch.

First, 10Gbit hardware is more available now than years ago, so you have more options. I started off with the router my ISP gave me. It worked, but it was 1Gbit. Not going to do for me. Plus, basic function was paywalled. Booooo! Snagged a broken Asus router and got it working great.

With IDS/IPS enabled, I get about 3.5Gbps. There is newer router tech today that looks interesting with fewer bottlenecks that would have been nice years ago, but not worth the upgrade right now.

My desktop hits about 2Gbps downloading Steam games/updates, but my partners desktop lags behind with SATA SSD storage. Definitely need NVME with that speed.

I will say my experience with 10Gbit Ethernet cards is not positive. I have a lot of intermittent disconnections and there are a lot of bugs vs 1Gbit switches. They do not like sharing with 2.5Gbit devices. I keep my server on 1Gbit connections. It's plenty fast for my needs though.

I second this. It's an amazing utility for video encoding.

Used it for converting class projects back in the day. The queue feature saved my arse back when prores to HEVC conversions took days.
