It baffles me that they sell Chrome as private and/or secure, and baffles me even more that people believe them.

I had it running on Windows (no container) a while back. Wasn't particularly difficult at that time, at least.

Can't give any advice here though, since all we've been given to work with is an OS.

Can't say we as a species have a great history of granting rights to others.

Heck, now I want pizza...

And not only that, but if you spritz leftover pizza with a bit of water before putting it in the microwave, it brings out the flavour more and prevents it from drying out.

(Figure that's about as relevant.)

In case anyone is curious - as I was - here's the commercial: https://youtu.be/uTVlnehpRHQ

(Not the Toys R Us channel, in case you don't want to give them direct views.)

Love how they make this sound like some incredible feat. When you aren't bound to license agreements, turns out it's actually very easy to have a "massive" content library. Literally the only hurdle is storage space.

Because all the legal services are incredibly anti-consumer and are offering less services, with (more) ads, for more money every year.

It's like they took an ergonomics textbook and read it upside-down.

Haha literally what planet do they live on?

That was quite a segue into complaining about inflation.

Can't wait for the sequel where Zelda puts on Majora's Mask.

 

Hi everyone!

I'm looking into self-hosting, and I currently have dynamic DNS set up to point to my home IP.

My question: is it worth getting a dedicated IP through a VPN?

I'm pretty technically savvy, but when it comes to networking I lack practical experience. My thought is that pointing my domain to a dedicated IP and routing that traffic to my home IP would be safer - especially if I only allow traffic on certain ports from that IP. Just curious if that idea holds up in practice, or if it's not worth the effort.
