Isn’t that just a soft ‘rule’ established via Reddiquette?

VPNS with port forwarding matter if you want to stay anonymous while using P2P services.

If you’re doing a P2P related activity over a VPN (or otherwise), port forwarding is very important for improving speed or enabling the service at all. That’s because your router blocks incoming traffic from certain ports by default, ports that will be used with a P2P connection. To get around this, you can ‘forward’ a port that can be used for said P2P activity, letting your router know that the traffic you expect to see from a specific port should be let through.

You can simply leave port forwarding to your personal router, but if you want to stay anonymous while participating in P2P connections, then you’ll want to use a VPN service. If a VPN service doesn’t utilize port forwarding, then any P2P connections you use will either be straight up impossible, or very slow. For example, you wanted to host a gaming server without giving away your actual IP address, then a VPN with port forwarding is desirable. The same can be said for torrenting.

Now whenever I see Gordon I think about his attempt to sell NFT’s, lol.

That’s a new hell-on-eath I wasn’t aware of. Yikes.

I don’t think so. Maybe I’m misunderstood, but the “I use Arch” meme was meming on the fact that using Arch was a flex, like it’s harder to get into, and you’re a true blooded Linux user if you’re using Arch.

Whereas, Pop_OS is kind of the opposite. I’m fairly new to Linux (been using a Linux system as my daily driver for about a year), and Pop_OS was recommended as a beginner-friendly distro. Plus, it worked well with Nvidia cards with minimal effort. So maybe it seems like a lot of people are using Pop_OS and are bringing it up, because there are a lot of newer Linux users.

Maybe a little bit of column A and a little bit of column B.

The hottest 21 days so far!

That’s good to hear! I’m not on iOS but I’ll keep an eye out for the Android solution.

Behind the bastards makes it more bearable because they really take the piss out of the ads every time.

I have not found this to be the case. There are only a few podcasts I felt I enjoyed enough to financially support, and I stopped donations because I still had to sit through ads. I don’t like feeling as if I’m being monetized twice.

Be really cool if more hosts made ad-free supporter versions.

If you don’t mind sharing, which subreddits are you still following on reddit? Do you think they might move over eventually?

Unfortunate but inevitable given the API changes. I only used teddit for a short time to check on a few subreddits during the protest/blackout period. This really marks the end of me visiting reddit in any form or fashion now.

I’ll make a single exception for this post, as it’s complaining about the people complaining. But if I hear someone complain about someone complaining about someone complaining, then so help me.

While most of these are a good rule of thumb, I disagree with ‘Always Happy to Help.’ > ‘No Problem.’

‘I’m Always Happy to Help’ is a fine response, if you’re actually willing to make your time available for the recipient at the drop of a hat. Sometimes that’s called for, but I would only reserve it for a few very specific circumstances. I also don’t see an issue with saying ‘no problem’ most of the time. There are situations where something a little more formal is called for, but 90% of the time ‘no problem’ should work imho.

To do so, go to the instance’s Kbin address with this format: kbin.social/d/[insert instance name here].

For example: kbin.social/d/lemmynsfw.

Then hit the block button in the upper right, under where it says domain.

I could get behind Fedizen.

Mannnn… I really want to enjoy battlebits. Looks like it captures the old battlefield ‘feel’ really well. It’s just super unfortunate that they are switching to an anti-cheat service that requires kernel access. Even if it didn’t break compatibility with my system, which it will, on principle that’s just too much trust given regarding my computer imho.

/r/Piracy also celebrated the fact that reddit officially endorsed them.

Couldn’t have said it better than myself. o7

Also, Helldivers 2 has been announced. So not the worst time to get into the first gem! Though, split screen support has not been confirmed for the sequel, and it may not make an appearance since they’re making the jump to a 3rd person perspective. But it still looks good, and I am fanboying over it.
