Good luck!

If you want to stay with whatever provider you have you can try openVPN over TCP or a SOCKS proxy over SSH (both TCP traffic). Anything TCP might be faster than WG

.xci files are physical switch game images and .nsp files are updates or games from the eShop. Everything is online somewhere.

They can follow me and everyone else who downloaded my digital cert I ~~posted~~ lost control of.

I thought they backed out of that a couple weeks ago already

I can see 3 month old posts there. Nothing new.

Clearly you already know the difference /s

I have no idea, I just use and remember the one I linked above.

I mean, how would we know if it wasn't? I also understood nothing in the article.

Is there a single source of truth? It really sounds like split brain is possible?

All instances may have their own copy but I imagine the community the instance was posted on is important and need to be up?

I moved to this from tutanota so I could have IMAP. No complaints.

I like the GPG encryption option they have as it's basically what I believe tuta does to their mail by default

Your router will get a public IP. For example 1.2.3.4. This is the port your ISP is plugged into. (Perhaps the WAN labeled port) this IP is what you want to access from a different network (cell data, friends house, etc). It's important that you confirm the WAN IP on your router is a real public IP. Some providers actually give you a private (CGNAT) IP and its a huge pain in the ass. Going to what is my IP or whatever and compare it to your WAN IP on the router website is a good test. They should be the same. If they are, no matter where you are in the world you can access the wan side of your router. If not, tailscale is a good option.

The other port on a router has a private IP, for example 192.168.0.1. This could look 4+ ports but that's basically just a switch and more or less the same thing.

Anyway, you have to tell your router, if you get something on the WAN port 1.2.3.4 to TCP port 80 you need to forward it to laptop IP 182.168.0.100 TCP port 80.

If this is successful, you need to make sure the laptop firewall allows access to TCP 80 from anywhere. If you can access the laptop website from your phone on WiFi then its pretty safe bet that its allowed from anywhere, unless you told it otherwise.

I like to test public access from on https://canyouseeme.org/

Edit: to add, this will only ever work if you're at home. Each new network you connect to, you will need to access the router and do the exact same thing to provide access to your laptop. Not ideal, and impossible at something like a hotel or hospital. Overlay network give you a second virtual network that you plug a virtual cable into for all your devices, including phones. If you do this you can just use that second virtual IP to access your stuff no matter where you are.

I get "in the real world" is different but lemmy.world shouldn't be held responsible for what another instance or their users are doing.

Where is the line drawn? I buy a harddrive to store movies, use my ISP to download it, power company to run the PC. Should we sue them also? Should they try and censor what I do? WD sees a movie on my disk, should they delete it?

Indexers (like the torrent sites TPB, 1337x, etc) are not free. Some will let you get a free account, like DS, but you're limited in downloads. They'll give you .nzb (like .torrent) files.

Sab,nzbget, etc (like utorrent,qbitorrent) are free. They're open source software to download the files you want utilizing the .nzb files.

Providers are paid. Usenet server, newsdemon, etc are the companies that host files for you to download. They're basically like torrent "seeders" but it's just one company and usually pretty fast. I don't know of any free providers.

At minimum, you'll have to pay for a provider. I got 80% off of one and I pay $37USD for a year. Others are ~$70CAD for a year. There is deals posted on reddit all the time so look around. You'll never have to pay full price.

If you're going to use Radarr or Sonarr (free, open source software) you should pay for an unlimited indexer, like DrunkenSlug, so you don't hit the limits. I don't know of any free unlimited ones. You can use the *arr's with torrents but its not as good.
