Stremio (free) + Premiumize (~$4/month) + TorBox (~$4/month). Then you can watch everything with a backup in case one (Premiumize or TorBox) goes down.

Feel free, sir. Gift wrapped works just fine. To be totally transparent, though, I've used the Umbrel guide to migrate and it worked as advertised.

I've been playing 7 Days to Die with a buddy of mine for a while. I also enjoy Halo, Diablo (though I've barely had time to scratch the surface), Red Dead, Elder Scrolls, and am willing to give any MMORPG a shot. Just don't have the time for it that I used to.

It is. It's disappointing when they come in preaching "centralized/permissioned systems need to end," but then give up on decentralized/permissionless systems because they arent getting paid by the very system the virtue signal against.

I have not kept up enough to be excited, but these are big propositions. I look forward to the possibility while keeping my expectations low. A lightning experience without channel management seems too good to be true at this point. I hope to one day open my nostr feed and see the great minds agree that the solution is here and it is sound.

Yes. This should be the case with any legitimate money. Only spend because the benefits outweigh the costs. Not because the money is losing value against the goods or services you can purchase with it.

I agree with @nprofile…ysrt , I use a refurbed ThinkCentre (with two new 16 GB RAM sticks and a new SSD) for @nprofile…cnv5 as my home server separate from @nprofile…fu08 . At some point I will go further to create a RAID system for redundancies and such. I am still pretty new to self-hosting, so as I get more time to research, learn, and experiment, things will get better. For the last year or so, however, this setup as worked great.

Yeah, this is the challenge. When it came to running my Haven relay, I preferred having my own hardware over paying to use someone else's. I don't like using Cloudflare to access it and will stop as soon as I find an alternative solution. But I would rather use it as a step in the process than not do anything and rely on others' relays (some of which very well may be using Cloudflare). If anyone has a solution to get around ISP port restrictions, I am more than open to it.
Alas, like you said, anything I try to do gets way more complicated and takes a lot more time, of which I don't have much to spare lately, than it probably should 😅

There are steps in this tutorial about setting it up. It's the one I used to set up a lightning address via a VPS. It works, but I don't use it because TOR and the reverse proxy slows it down significantly. If you have the time and desire, you can pull out the applicable instructions and ignore the rest.

That's fair and I don't entirely disagree. I am also an idiot, but with some research, I was able to get Nginx to work on a VPS.

2025-03-11 13:31:23

- reply

I am not using a Proxmox server, but a mini PC with the Ubuntu server OS. The only issue I ran into is my ISP port forwarding restrictions not allowing me to incorporate Nginx correctly. But I followed this tutorial, got my Haven relay set up, then connected through Cloudflare (as he does in the video). If I ran on a VPS, I could eliminate the use of Cloudflare. Hope this helps!

This is probably the route to take. Thanks for the suggestion.

2025-03-09 01:12:32

So I went through a spree of buying mini PCs a while back. Generally one was an upgrade the the previous for my nodes. Now my node is running @nprofile…d6j2 on acceptable hardware, my ThinkCentre is running @nprofile…q0zz for general home server needs, and I have another running my #Haven relay. Now I am trying to determine the best use for a NUC with a 4 TB SSD. Using it to back everything else up comes to mind and I know I can do this with Start9, but not sure about the others.
So, what would you use it for?

Got this bad boy in the mail yesterday from @nprofile…62jx. I do not regret my purchase. This hash rate (~1.8 TH/s) is at the higher setting and the fans are pretty loud. At the middle setting, "Normal," I get about 1 TH/s and the sound blends with the ambient. Certainly not the best price per hash, but the display info and the support for open source mining make it worth it to me.

My node running adventures have led me down some really interesting rabbit holes. Interesting for me anyway, since I don't have any computer/programming/linux background at all. I've learned a lot on the journey. Running a Bitaxe (or 3 😆) is fun and supporting open source development while enjoying another hobby is enough incentive for me to justify the expense to myself, lol.
But as @npub1ugn…898l said, setting a node up is super easy now. My DIY Start9 just works without me having to think about it. Not like one I had going on bare metal a few years back that i kept on tinkering with.

2025-03-06 00:47:19

If I want to go from lightning to chain, I use @npub1psm…8970. But I guess it depends on what you are trying to do.

I attempted to change the relay on my Start9 server, but got lost looking for the .env file (I am addmittedly a Linux/CLI novice). Would it be possible to have these kinds of options in the configuration section on the OS UI?

2025-02-24 13:36:21

Lol, where is the excuse for Android? And making compromises for it to work "out of the box" is basically the definition of valuing convenience over other things. Again, nothing wrong with it. Just don't try to justify it as being more.
I was just hoping to get some new insight into an iOS maxi mentality. I guess that's not going to happen here.

2025-02-24 13:19:10

- reply

I'm sorry, you're right. Everyone has different things in mind when it comes to privacy. What comes to mind for me is access to privacy-focused, open source apps and the other apps/OS doesn't spy to sell your data.
I'm honestly not trying to be confrontational here. I have been wondering what it is about iOS that keeps freedom tech lovers locked in.

2025-02-24 13:07:45

- reply

I'm not making excuses for anything. I'm making an argument for actual open source, privacy hardened software over a closed off ecosystem built by a huge corporation focused on profit margins.

2025-02-24 13:02:58

- reply

I see that as an OPSEC mitigation for security. There is value there, for sure, but most apps (all of them on my phone) with sensitive info have that option built in as well. If, for some reason, I left my phone unlocked and someone picked it up within the 30 seconds it takes to lock automatically, they wouldnt have access to anything sensitive.
But that doesnt really address the privacy.

2025-02-24 12:50:37

So you prefer convenience. That's reasonable, but dont make it out to be superior. The prices for an iPhone and a Pixel are not materially different.

Thats what I meant about collusion. In principle, they could do that. But the incentives don't really line up. Once that happens, business dries up.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought in this scenario obscura has your IP, but not the web traffic/public IP. Mullvad knows web traffic/public IP, but not yours. Neither knows both so neither can individually link an individual to their web traffic.
