That’s a great point about the IRS. Where I’m from we also make a lot of derogatory jokes about our equivalent of the IRS, but it really is a cornerstone of any civilized country. No one likes getting taxed, but everyone complains about how nothing’s getting fixed, and how the government should fund this and that. Without taxes we might as well pack it in, so it makes sense that the ‘local tax collection agency’ should be one of the better funded ones.

So I guess what I’m trying to say is thanks for changing my mind

This implies that trolls will someday go extinct, as the only way to create new trolls is for two existing ones to have children.

Why? What’s so special about aviation that it benefits from imperial units?

I miss the flash sales too but it’s worth it considering it gave us refunds instead.

I pity the five year old who has to read this.

I’m a grown up though so thank you for the explanation.

Always wondered why anyone would rather talk to a person than take their time, have a nice overview of the menu, and pay in advance. I guess they are gross though.

There are doxxing websites? Like purpose-made? Isn’t that illegal? Article doesn’t mention the name, but says it has been used before. Wouldn’t it just get deleted after the first time?

Lmao are you also mad when players in sea of thieves sink your ship? Or when people in GTA online shoot you? If you don’t like that kind of gameplay don’t play the game

Nah, I’d love to be able to ask an assistant to make sense of the dog shit layout in word, instead of having to blindly click at menus for 10 minutes, then finally give up and Google for 10 more minutes, all because Microsoft thought it would be cool and intuitive to split menus into “view”, “review”, “layout” and “design”, because those words don’t basically all mean the same thing.

Only 1-2 years for possessing literally hundreds of CP images and videos? What the fuck? I mean I guess he didn’t harm anyone directly (as far as we know) but still, come on.

It's really sad that they chose to implement it. I would've loved to play Helldivers 2 but I just refuse to allow them that level of access to my device, especially for a game that isn't even competitive.

Yah I don’t know what anon is doing to his PC when no one is looking but it can’t be good. Firefox for at least 13 years here and never had an issue I didn’t cause myself.

Thanks for the clarification. So I can surmise that length is everything then? Given that I use a password manager I'll just stick to my long gibberish passwords in that case, but it's good to keep passphrases in mind for use cases where I can't copy/paste easily.

Is that safe though? After seeing that XKCD I also thought it would be a good idea but then read that using passphrases is even worse because brute force attacks often use dictionaries as well to test word combinations, so one should use scrambled characters, just long enough to resist brute force.

Does it really matter though? "Well you see, they didn't actually see you naked, it was just a photorealistic approximation of what you would look like naked".

At that point I feel like the lines get very blurry, it's still going to be embarrassing as hell, and them not being "real" nudes is not a big comfort when having to confront the fact that there are people masturbating to your "fake" nudes without your consent.

I think in a few years this won't really be a problem because by then these things will be so widespread that no one will care, but right now the people being specifically targeted by this must not be feeling great.

Thanks for the answers. I guess that was not clear from my post, but I do not want to expose anything to the internet. All I want to do is tidy up the urls to the services for clarity. I have no issue with installing Tailscale on every device I want to access my services with. I can currently access any service just fine by doing "tailscaleIP:PortOfService", but that is kind of unpractical. So by using my domain and Cloudflare DNS I changed it to "mydomain.com:PortOfService" which is already better, but means I have to look up what port the service I need uses. Like I said in my post I'd ideally like "nameOfService.mydomain.com", no ports. And yes I realize this is purely for convenience/aesthetic reasons. Apologies if my words are not clear enough.

I would disagree with the choice of words here, yes their stories are often not super deep or intricate, but I do believe they are extremely interesting, specifically because they are presented in such an appealing way.

Just the elevator pitch for Hades sounds amazingly interesting, "you are the son of Hades fighting his way through procedurally generated dungeons to escape hell", fuck yeah! Tell me more!

And the impact is definitely there as well, because while depth is missing, the qualities you described make what little story there is quite impactful.

Of course this is all just my opinion, but you can't tell me that "you participate in ritualistic basketball games to free your comrades from a prison wasteland" doesn't sound interesting.

Yeah, this is not the hill we should die on. Also, according to a post I saw recently, a true roguelike needs to fulfill a bunch of very specific requirements that already disqualify 99 percent of the games in the genre, so why even bother?

Games evolve, that's a good thing, let's not start gatekeeping genres too much.

Interesting, I am actually not using a reverse proxy, just Tailscale (or does that count as a reverse proxy?), I had previously been using nginx proxy manager but ditched that because it became too much of a hassle (and everyone says it's not secure enough)

I meant streaming shows with Jellyfin works fine, so I don't see why streaming music shouldn't work at least as well. I don't like using streaming clients such as Plex or Jellyfin for music, they just feel quite unpolished.
