I also heard that USB 1.1 is slow, but it seems faster than the DVD drive, and that’s my only comparison point. I was going to get the memory card to SD card adapter since I’ve read is faster, but I don’t care honestly.

Yeah, I lost interest in newer NFS releases and mostly play rally and simracing titles, now. I forgot how fun Most Wanted was.

I just run most of the games from a USB stick. I would go with an HDD, I have dozens of ~250 GB laying around, but I don’t have the network/HDD expansion, YET

My first was Undercover on PSP, I played it for hours while waiting for my mom to pick me up from the school. Fun times

My dad told me that is the late 90s model. And Poland in the 90s was dirt poor, so it had to be very impressive back then.

We used it as the main TV till 2012 at least and it served as secondary for some more years after that.

That’s quite bad, on mine the second controller port doesn’t work. Fortunately the drive works fine.

Maybe you could try FreeMcBoot

Vita is nice, but expensive as well

My current one insists on beeping exactly 3 times whether I open the door or not. Fucking annoying. 30 y/o one at my dad’s doesn’t and it makes it a 1000x better device

Exposing wireguard port is not that bad since it’s key auth. Wireguard itself is quite minimal, so it tends to be quite secure and it shouldn’t appear in port scans.

So I wouldn’t worry as much as with other things you can expose.

For usability, you just share a config file with the user and tell them which app to install. Very smooth experience.

However you still need to keep the security in mind when you are letting someone into your network. Setup a DMZ or use ACLs (with iptables for example).

As for myself, I want to be as self sufficient as possible, especially from US tech, so I don’t use cloudflare.

Yes, you need for the client to know where to connect to. If you have a static IP then that’s it, but if you don’t you can use dynamic DNS, and you need to own a domain to use it (in theory there are services like duckdns.org, but it’s been unreliable for me for the past year).

I went for a cheap .ovh domain, which costs me ~3€ a year, and I get the OVH dynDNS as a bonus. I use ddclient to update my IP. Works great.

Now I’m trying migrate my wireguard setup to an LXC and implement ACLs while I’m at it.

Sometimes I break down the tasks into smaller pieces and it works but sometimes I get even more overwhelmed by the multiple new tasks so I end up doing nothing

I’ve been happy with my wireguard setup for a few years now - don’t need to rely on someone else’s servers (as much, I still use DDNS) like with Tailscale

It would be more like a statement

And sending them a GDPR notice would be such a nice feeling, hope they will get fined by EU again

micro is nice, I’ve been using it more for the past few months

And for me, there was no productivity penalty when switching from VSCode, since I didn’t have to learn all new keybinds (still lacks a bit of multicursor, tho)

I wish I could just delete my account, but I still need it occasionally and everone in Poland is using messenger

I decided to go bare minimum effort to get the self-hosted music expirience, so I’m just hosting the music on NextCloud for the Symfonium app to grab. I downloaded most of the music from YT music using yt-dlp, since that’s what I’m quite familiar with and I don’t have the arr stack set up yet.

I’m planning to move to Navidrome or Jellyfin soon™

Happy to hear great suggestions in other comments

rn I’m only using docker for the services I have behind a VPN, so I don’t really put that much thought into securing them. If I had any publicly accessible ones I would setup an automatic patch or even build my custom images.

And as always I’m trying to up my security game, but not at any cost

Only the essentials

I mean there was a train bubble once, simpler times tho
