In their defense, they were so good that they started fighting everyone at the same time. That single mistake is the reason we don't speak German right now. Current day fascists are much more fragile and stupid in comparison. If they got crushed back then, modern day ones can too.

Actually if you give people bread and circus, they are easy to control too. And we have plenty of circus, so...

• Pihole (if that service goes down, everyone in my house gets mad at me)
• Jellyfin

Everything else is a nice to have, not essential

The arr family with a torrent client is great for feeding Jellyfin. If you are a developer, you can host your own shit there too. Game servers for playing with family and friends (so far Minecraft, Terraria, Project Zomboid, V Rising). I like to host a bunch of different telegram bots I wrote for fun. Discord bots are another interesting side. I also run some automation runners for helping out with testing, building and deploying my projects.

Focus on your needs and what you want to improve of your online life, there is probably a project you can self host for it.

Oh, I think I understand your point, but we do have different definitions of what a scam is.

For me, if the guys getting fucked are capitalists or huge investing firms that were trying to leverage their money to make more money just from speculation and not being actually involved, that's not a scam, that justice. Economic bubbles happen because big money guys are trying to gamble the system to start with, so karma.

In the other hand, crypto scams are more close to a conman selling snake oil to the uneducated masses, that for me is a full fledged scam.

Web 1 and 2 were a pile of scams? Wthdym

It was a indie publisher, not developer, big difference. They published titles from indie studios. Publishing is the act of funding, supervision, sometimes giving advice, doing a launch marketing campaign, etc. In short, indie publishers are key for a indie game to make money, as traditional publishers tend to avoid them because they are high risk.

Yeah, no joke, I totally didn't know about any of this, be certain that I'm going to consider this OpenWRT stuff when I'm buying a new router, it one of the most important pieces of my network, and can't leave it to whatever the manufacturer plans to support in terms of security.

thanks to this post I found out about openwrt, and my tplink router model is compatible with it, I see this as an absolute win

I used to work for an ad heavy mobile game and ad serving company couple of years ago, and I had ad blocking at dns level in my house. It blocks not only ads, but also most tracking and telemetry. My bosses wanted to know why my devices were not displaying ads or dialing back to home, they were pretty fucking puzzled. They were terrified others like me were around. Basically their entire business model depends of people not knowing how to block ads and telemetry

what a great article

what game is that?

Indeed it was A Blast from the Past
