    Well, when I was talking about not techie people I didn’t mean technology analphabets, everybody can open a port in your consumer router with the help of chatgpt, not everybodies is able to realizes they need a reverse proxy with tls and modify the headers for the Auth…

    Being secure in internet is like the herd inmunity for corona times, your system could be fairly secure, but if you are hammered with several bot nets it is going to be a challenge, and there is responsabiity is shipping a product that is easy to be infected.

    And your third paragraph really confirms why this post is necessary

    Jellyfinn has a nice record of problems during the authentication and escalating privileges, even the developer team recommends to use it behind a vpn and don’t expose it to internet.

    If course, you can use a reverse proxy with and external Auth framework to mitigate it, pair it with fail2ban, geo restrictions and a second factor, but those things are not in the scope of the regular user.

    Let’s face reality, plex is not such widespread for being the default option in kali Linux…

    Sometimes your data is not important but your computer, nobody wants to be in a netbot.

    Well, perhaps plex is not better in security (we don’t know for sure) but at least they have a cyber team, a monitoring system and in every bodies hope, dedicated developers for these topics.

    Jellyfinn dies not hve a team like this one per se. Could the developers be better fit and knowledged in jellyfinn than plex? Perhaps, but probably the focus is in the features and not in the security

    Good to read you know how to implement some protection layers around your jellyfinn :)

    But most of the people (specially the plex ones) don’t have the technical background to deploy something like you have, and convince those people to do the switch without knowing how to protect themselves is not a wise thing to do. Specially when this time, plex response was perfectly fine :)




  • Terry Pratchett.

    No one, absolutely no one was able to master so many different styles, from theologist essays (smaller gods) to thriller novel (all the guards trilogy) . And in all of them you can find many quotes that could be at the same level as some of the best philosophers in the old continent.

    His novel defended the igualitary access to almost everything (equal rites, witches) , decompose social classes (almost in every book) ,speaks about slavism (the golem set of books) and how the things interact to each other in order to create the society we know. And more important, it also show how difficult is to change it.

    I addition you could find great explanation of the most important secrets of the universe, and last but not least, in some books he show an exquisite sense of humor.

    I understand that his style is not for everybody, and first time it could even generate a rejection. But which genius of its area didn’t create such feeling??

    It is time to start recognizing him as the genius and master he is.


  • This type of posts always reminds me a conversation I had with some friends, where they always claimed that the lack of rules, safety measures and freedom to smoke when I was 6, and all the mentality/concept/vision of the world is now considered really bad, difficult to accept or comprehend for modern mentalities.

    And we survived, they always reassesed.

    But the point is we didn’t, lot of fellas died in the process, alcohol was socially accepted as a way to deal with problems to the point that life-risk jobs were having daily accidents and 99% of them the guy was really alcohol fucked.

    But the deads were not there to disagree. It is only survival biases. And a lack of memories about who could not deal with the situations…


  • Not good, you are going to lose a lot of stuff, from personal relations, connections to your wife and even your health.

    I hope (really) your are not in a compromised financial situation and this is really temporary. If so, it is OK but you need to have a plan to reduce the hours in the foresable future.

    If this is not the situation, then learn how to disconnect from the work in the spare time and spent quality time when possible, also do cardio. It helps. A lot.

    When you are young you can really chew everything it is throwed at you, but it is not true anymore when you are past the 40s.

    Take care of yourself, nobody else is going to do it.


  • Me, as a person coming from an area with a large tradition about seefood and food in general I feel irritated that this pictures is able to get the status of foodporn. :D

    I mean, OP, with all the due respect, but if you enjoy that type of food you can not lose the opportunity to try it in a fisher traditional area prepared in the traditional way.

    Hope you like it even more!!!
