Change the ssh port to something with 4-5 digits, disable ssh password Auth and use certificates only, don’t expose any port other than ssh and 443.
If you’re paranoid, use cloudflare as a proxy and set the VPS firewall to only accept incoming traffic from cloudflares ip list.
That’s about it really.
Or take github out of the equation and directly use cloudflare pages. It has its own pros and cons, but for a simple static blog it’ll be more than enough, and takes out the CNAME hassle.
Many people do not want to seed downloaded content forever for storage reasons. In these cases, you would download the file with your download client and leave it in that download directory to allow seeding. It’ll be hardlinked to the Radarr/Sonarr folder for indexing, which does not use up extra storage space. Once a certain seeding/time goal is reached on the torrent, the torrent file will be deleted to make room for new torrents. This does (to my knowledge) not delete the file from the disk, meaning it is still accessible for your media center.
Especially for people who run their software on hosted solutions with limited storage space, this is important to do. If you have all your software running on a local server with (virtually) infinite storage, this is not as much of a worry to you. It is probably still in your best interest to use hardlinks instead of copies, to save on storage space.
no, telegram is cloud based. you send the message via a CURL POST to the telegram API, which contains your bot token and message. details are in the linked guide.
Kuma obviously is more established and feature-proof, and will work great for most people who want notifications like this. I just wanted to take the prompt for a “simple alternative” overly serious 😎
If you want it REALLY easy, you should be able to write a simple bash script that, when called, pings an arbitrary always online website like google, and if the ping returns an error, sends a telegram message to your phone. you could also store the current state in a separate file to allow for “is now down” and “is up again” differentiation, then use the telegram message timestamps to “track” (loosely used term) up- and downtime. To call the script, add it to your crontab and specify your test interval there.
Getting bash to send to telegram is ridiculously easy, as seen here: https://hackernoon.com/how-to-create-a-simple-bash-shell-script-to-send-messages-on-telegram-lcz31bx. This is EXTREMELY barebones, but it’ll get the job done if you need zero bells and whistles.
central europe here, landline internet is truly unlimited here. my router reports around 6.5TB of total traffic (up+down) in my home network over the last month. we still have cellular data with soft caps (EDGE type speed after your 30 Gig or whatever are used up) but cable internet is limitless.
At that point I’d rather pirate the game and donate to mod developers who are putting endless hours of unpaid time into free mods.
I know, people like to call them noisy. I’m sure they are, but I have no point of reference. I’ve never interacted with 18TB drives before. And as I’ve written in the comment, with the Define 7 I’m having absolutely zero noise issues. The maximum noise I am able to get out of the drives is when writing during parity calculations, and this scenario now causes near zero audible noise. I am wonderfully happy with what I have.
Since you’re going to go with 4TB drives, they may already make less noise just based on that. At these lower capacities (would have been an insane thing to call 4TB drives a couple years ago lol) they’re built differently.
If you’re not gonna use a “proper sound isolated case”, let me share these two ressources for custom sound dampening cases:

Both taught me a handful of things about what I can do beyond buying an isolated case to reduce noise output. Maybe they will be of help to you too. Best of luck!
I have very recently acquired 4x18TB Seagate Exos drives for a fresh server. I parked them in an old case I had lying around where i was barely able to secure them all with screws, and cooling was especially problematic. Noise was horrible. standby noise was already audbile in the entire room. and when writing data while parity calculations were running, you could hear it in the entire apartment. The noise travelled through the wooden floor into every other room.
I have now moved the server and the drives into the fractal define 7 case. the drives rest on specially made rubber bearings that came with the case. the sides are noise isolated. the system is running with 6 fans total, 3 of which are 120mm corsair fans repurposed, and 3 are 140mm from the define 7. the server is now close to noiseless. vibrations do not rattle the case as with the old one. the rubber bearings isolate most of the vibration anyways. all that is left is a bit of head clacking, which gets isolated away from the case sides.
long story short: the drives are only half the story. you need a proper enclosure that is noise isolated. the define 7 is comparatively huge, but it gives you immense room to grow and was truly a godsent regarding noise.

dont put money into that “announcement”. they “exposed” her to be an old cracker who was in the scene many, many years ago. that person is to this day fighting a court case about their time in the scene. they’ve also written a post somewhere on the net talking about this and how hurt and confused they are to be dragged back into this mess. and the group that did the “exposing” has, as far as i have seen, not provided a single piece of evidence for their claims.
innocent until proven guilty. no one knows who empress is, so you may as well believe she is the woman she says to be.

Sounds like you’re using nginx proxy Manager, a web based frontend for nginx. If so, you have to edit your existing host, change to custom locations, add one with “/” as the address and the same containername and port. Then click the cogwheel in this entry to open a text box for custom rules. You can paste the following lines into there:
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
proxy_set_header X-Real-IP $remote_addr;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Host $server_name;
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;

For logging keys, usually
This will work, but is not as nice as the official way to do it via a config file, as described by another comment here.
