Eh… What? It’s an interesting article. The screaming is in quotation marks. So as far as I’m concerned, the title is fine.

That’s actually mentioned as one possible use case further down the article!

I mean, you have to be a psychopath to amass this kind of wealth.

And being a psychopath is (usually) a defense mechanism against a trauma severe enough that being a psychopath is necessary to not go mad.

So no, psychopaths don’t feel good most of the time, they’re severely broken to the point that they’re not a fully developed personality (being a psychopath is officially called a personality disorder).

Note that a personality disorder isn’t a yes/no checkbox, but more of a spectrum. For example, being slightly histrionic is very common among actors, but it doesn’t mean they’d murder you for fun.

and then sleep more peacefully than you have on the single best day of your entire life

Seriously doubt that. Those kinds of people don’t sleep well.

1. For all the mentioned cases, if your firewall blocks incoming packets by default, no one can access it, no matter what is the source of the port being open.

2. You don’t configure it on the docker level, at least if you care about outside connections. If you mean from your local computer to a docker container, by default you cannot connect, unless you expose the port to the system. If you mean from other docker containers, just create your own separate network to run the container in and even docker containers cannot access the ports.

3. I usually use netstat -tulpn, it lists all ports, not only docker, but docker is included. docker ps should also show all exposed ports and their mappings.

In general, all docker containers run on some internal docker network. Either the default or a custom one. The network’s ports don’t interfere with your own, that’s why you can have 20 nginx servers running in a docker container on the same port. When you bind a port in docker, you basically create a bridge from the docker network to your PC’s local network. So now anything that can connect to your PC can also connect to the service. And if you allow connection to the port from outside the network, it will work as well. Note that port forwarding on your router must be set up.

So in conclusion, to actually make a service running in docker visible to the public internet, you need to do quite a few steps!

• bind a port to your local host
• have your local firewall allow connection to the port
• have your router set up to forward connections on the port to your machine

On Linux, local firewall is usually disabled by default, but the other two steps require you to actively change the default config. And you mention that all incoming traffic is dropped using UFW, so all three parts should be covered.

Yes. But at least with the admin group I’m part of, it’s dealt with fairly quickly, because we employ automated tools to help fight the spam.

We also have auto moderators. The recent spam wave didn’t occur on my instance at all. But my Matrix notification channel sure did explode with messages of bots being banned.

That just won’t work. First and foremost, I won’t be hosting illegal stuff, just so you can have your freedom. Think child porn and stuff. Happened multiple times on Lemmy and probably will happen again. If you haven’t seen it, your admin most likely has and dealt with it.

And with stuff like Hexbear and other troll instances, I just don’t want to deal with tens of reports a day, I simply block them because they’re trolls.

If you want that kind of freedom, you have to create your own. I’m not gonna spend a significant amount of time on reports that can be avoided. And definitely not going to prison.

Well, at least I review the user profile in question when banning people. And take the whole context into account. Makes it harder, but I can usually ban people with clear conscience.

It started happening to me as well. And only on Lemmy.

I stopped paying attention to it because I’m kinda tired of all the horrible news about everything. I have enough personal tragedies to need external ones. So it was just a general observation: when you escalate a war, the other side will as well. You’re not helping anyone.

It goes to the mods and to the admins of either the reporting user’s instance or the instance of the user being reported.

So whenever a lemmings.world user reports something, I know about it and whenever something by a lemmings.world user is reported, I know about it as well.

I personally don’t moderate content that breaks community rules, I think that’s the mods responsibility/privilege, but if it breaks instance rules, I deal with the comment/post/pm myself. Some of the other admins I know moderate the same way.

Yeah, that’s sure to end well.

Damn, just recently I started working on something similar.

Just implemented it for fun on my instance (lemmings.world). Sadly you need to be a user of that instance for it to work. When logged in you go to https://lemmings.world/rss/init, afterwards a link is shown (among other information) that looks something like https://lemmings.world/rss/4e6490fe0613f6e2e03cd420f71df14476e769b57604652921c1a7b2150f0888 - that is your personal RSS feed of stuff you saved with a URL that cannot be guessed automatically (the hash is entirely random).

It could be made to work for all instances, but that would take me a while. You can also ask the admins to install the app on their website (it’s open source and can be found at https://github.com/RikudouSage/LemmyPersonalRss).

Nice! Currently working on a federated software, so now I have a place to share it when it’s in a presentable state.

You can always try lemmings.world if you want, I’m planning on keeping it long-term.

I mean, Lemmy devs are tankies, who participate in misinformation sharing.

If you see some, report it. Some of us admins of other Lemmy instances take disinformation seriously.

I know what your point is, I just think it’s pointless. Does it matter whether she was murdered in prison specifically, died because of bad prison conditions, died because another inmate murdered her or any other reason?

The point is she was in prison she shouldn’t be in. And your “point” is just obnoxious.
