You probably don’t need a local Firewall
If the computer never leaves the house, maybe. If it’s ever on public Wi-Fi though, default deny inbound at a bare minimum. Linux computers with cups installed and running but no firewall were revealed yesterday to be vulnerable to RCE.
This is great:
What if my experimental protocol is approaching the 3 month removal period but I am missing ACKs due to reviewer inactivity?
Contributors engaging in good faith protocol development should not be penalized due to reviewer inactivity. It is advised that experimental protocol authors post memes to the base MR until reviewers become active.
What if an experimental protocol author posts memes to the MR for many months rather than furthering development?
It is expected that protocol authors are seriously attempting to reach staging/ status. If it is determined by members that this is not the case for a given experimental protocol after a three month period has elapsed, the one week removal notice may be invoked regardless of how good the memes may be.
I wouldn’t recommend watching it,
So why are you giving him views by prominently linking it? It looks like you’re just bringing the rage bait here.
You can still torrent without forwarding a port, for example by only making outgoing connections. But that may limit your speed, and figuring out forwarding should help.
Of all those, I’ve only heard of Heztner. Am I out of touch?
I’ve been a Linode customer for years, and I used to use Digital Ocean as well. I’ve been happy with them, did you consider them?
None that article, but check my other reply and check your plan. You may be pleased, I was.
The marketing fluff doesn’t, but they actually did increase upload speeds. Mine went from 10 to 20 up. And here is the DSL reports forum thread from when this round started.
Also, they are testing larger increases. I could get 100 up today, if I had a supported modem.
So, check your actual plan and modem to see what you have now.
I was happy with my cyber powers for years, but then the batteries died (official replacement batteries, after 3 years - the originals lasted 5) and the ups just stopped even passing power through. This is someone’s old blog about this https://blog.networkprofile.org/cyberpower-ups-avoid/
The recent webp vulnerability is a bit concerning.
I might get the 8 next week. It’s supposed to be a little smaller.
Ping is not a good way to test http, because they are completely different protocols, and can be blocked separately or not. From what you have posted so far, I don’t see a problem being demonstrated. Your caddy log here also shows one successful request. So: define “not working” better. Are you testing from a browser? Via curl? From where? To exactly what urls? What message do you get back from your browser/curl?
Not true, Arch and Ubuntu (the ones I personally checked on) already pushed patches that disabled cups browsed by default, removing the service listening on 631.
