Seriously…is this just a list of countries whose populations are predominantly black? It wouldn’t surprise me if that was the basis for the list, with a couple of bonus ones thrown in for spice.

Now THAT is helpful. Excellent.

Yeah, “subscribe to keep reading” is an easy way to ensure I don’t see/click posts with this domain anymore. Thanks for that

That’s a fair take on things. Thanks for the insight. I figure anyone who can build a submarine company and an ocean explorer vessel and some hologram data visualization system and whatever else sort of shenanigans he is up to, has a very different set of concerns around money than most of us do

I was under the impression that he had enough money to self finance Avatar 4 + 5 if need be and was not going to be dissuaded from making them one way or the other

Come on down to real fake doors data

I’m actually pleasantly surprised to find out he’s still alive and there wasn’t some mysterious hand waving to cover up his “misplacement”

It’s a trap

Somewhat. They can certainly maintain a list of known IP addresses. Those IPs can be changed.

When they change, you as a user need to be able to find the new addresses. Whatever mechanism you can use, your ISP can likely disrupt too. For instance, they can DNS block the API that returns the list of possible endpoints (as sometimes happens to Proton where I live).

You can then counter by using private DNS. It’s a cat and mouse game.

Thanks for that! I have struggled with watchtower from time to time, so knowing there is a good fork out there is great. I’ll try it out.

NAS, Jellyfin/Plex, Copyparty (Google Drive replacement), Kiwix (Wikipedia), Joplin, Searxng, Ollama (LLM). Plus all the various searching tools, the maintenance tools, etc. I have pretty strong compartmentalization of my storage into separate media pools that all have their own RAID setups, plus an external backup.

It’s a bit of work to get all set up, but I use docker compose and autoheal / watchtower to keep the services going. I use Caddy and my own domain to make the services I want available externally to my network.
