no. I have a DP to HDMI cable that cost me like $20. it does great.

I still have the vcd of my copy of fight club. it’s such a shitty copy but it adds to the dirt and grime of the actual movie.

electron was a steaming pile of shit 8 years ago. still is. what’s changed?

our acceptance of shitty corporate software.

nope. I want to feel his conviction.

that’s retarded.

edit: if you upvote you agree the term “retarded” has changed meaning to not target the mentally deficient.

if you downvote you agree that the meaning of words cannot change, and thus agree that the term “retarded” means to “make slow or slower; keep back, hinder, delay” according to 14th century Latin. making your reason to downvote in the first place moot.

eat shit and go to hell.

I wouldn’t go onto a teen community and spout off how to make explosives even though they’re relatively safe to a trained individual.

same reason behind not allowing a hobbyist and amateur community to think that iptables and firewalld is the best/only solution.

it’s dangerous and someone will get hurt eventually.

this is selfhosted. a community that’s predominantly amateur or hobbyist.

lives are worth more than the dysfunction caused by the delay in services.

the only thing this did was to weaken the resolution of leadership when a real disaster happens.

the next time information like this comes forward, be it real or fake, it will cause a delayed reaction which will ultimately cost lives.

yes.

Jesus can eat shit from my ass. when he does that I’ll switch to jellyfin.

• anyone gaining physical or remote access to the device can set rules. by protecting the entire network with a hardware firewall you mitigate attack vectors from other hardware on your network that become compromised.
• iptables and firewalld are notorious for locking users out of the system by overzealous or green system admins. in the msp world this happens practically by the hour.
• iptables and firewalld can be used against you in the event of a breach. one of the first things an attacker may attempt is to forward ports and lock system admins out as they take over the system.
• make sure you save your rules properly or they’ll be gone after a reboot or botched upgrade
• migrating your rules from one system to another when you’re changing hardware or restoring a system is a huge pain in the ass.
• got a network change that’s going to modify the subnet your systems are on? get ready to migrate all 15 of your devices one by one for the next 8-15 hours (depending on the complexity of your rules)

it’s far easier, and safer to have all your network config done in the network. from system migrations to securing/hardening. it’s far more efficient and effective to have a single source of truth that manages network routing and firewall rules. hell, you can even have a redundant or load balanced firewall configuration if you’re afraid of a single point of failure.

point is, firewalld and iptables is for amateur hour and hobbyists.

if you want to complain that “docker doesn’t respect system firewalls” then at least have the chutzpah enough to do it the right way from the beginning.

oh look, another jellyfin circle jerk.

What if you rent a bare metal server in a data center?

any msp will work with your security requirements for a cost. if you can’t afford it, then you shouldn’t be using a msp.

Or rent a VPS from a basic provider that expects you to do your own firewalling?

find a better msp. if a vendor you’re paying tells you to fuck off with your requirements for a secure system, they are telling you that you don’t matter to them and their only goal is to take your money.

Or run your home lab docker host on the same vlan as other less trusted hosts?

don’t? IDK what to tell you if you understand what a vlan is and still refuse to set one up properly to segment your network securely.

It would be nice if there was a reliable way to run a firewall on the same host that’s running docker.

don’t confuse reliable with convenient. iptables and firewalld are not reliable, but they are certainly convenient.

You may say these are obscure use cases and that they are Wrong and Bad. Maybe you’re right, but personally I think it’s an unfortunate gap in expected functionality, if for no other reason than defense-in-depth.

poor network architecture is no excuse. do it the proper way or you’re going to get your shit exposed one day.

this is the second time I’ve seen a post like this.

docker has always been like this. if it’s news to you then you must be new to docker.

if you’re using the built in firewall to secure your system on your wan, you’re doing it wrong. get a physical firewall. if you’re doing it to secure your lan then you just need to put in some proper routes and let your hardware firewall sort it out with some vlans.

don’t rely on firewalld or iptables for anything.

that’s not Nicholas Cage. that’s Daniel Jackson!

I had several IOT smart plugs that have GPS built in.

why? why would it need to know its exact geographic location?!

after that I created an entire hardware segmented network that’s specifically used for IOT and cameras.

last I checked the router/firewall it’s on has blocked over 11million requests a month trying to access the outside.

I will never have a “smart” device in my home that’s connected to the internet. I’ll live like it’s the 1930s if I ever have to.

this movie is good man!

because fuck horses, that’s why.

lord knows I tried reading that, but I lack the brain damage required to read any more.

I fuckin hate podcasts. they say a whole lot of bullshit with near zero content.

it’s 45 minutes of pretentious dumbasses reacting to the smell of their own farts while locked in a tiny recording studio.
