More smooth sailor q anon bullshit.

… 4 Chan leaking again I see.

Yall really couldn’t come up with a better idea than the ones from 10 years ago? Your dog whistles like fucking fog horn

TLDR: Take off your pants then.

Not a sysadmin, just a casual IT.

If it is open, it is going to get hit by scanners, scrapers, everything and the sun, even if it is secure. Generally, 443 for your websites via reverse proxy with an IP whitelist + password is okay. Not special, lets you add subdomains, very convenient.

Now, there isn’t anything special about any given port, but you still need to have some form of access control that you need to set up. If it is an API have some sort of API key in place. Implement 2FA. Try to isolate the service from the machine. Isolate the machine from bare metal. Keep the bare metal machine isolated from your home network. Take up farming. Change the default port and add some form of access alerts/logs. Have some sort of fail2ban service in place because you will be firehosed with scripts and bad traffic.

Maybe some of the stuff I recommend is paranoid overkill, but I don’t know enough to cut corners. Security is a hassle, a breach is a nightmare.

sort by cpu model or filter by no os. windows has a list of unsupported cpu models, but the vast majority of stuff getting dumped on eBay is corporate salvage. an older Thinkpad or used G3 workstation is (65 - 80$). 20$ SSD and you should be good to go. if you’re in a pinch for cash, an old monitor and thin client can be under 60$, m+k under 10$.
