Only if you need (cheap) port-forwarding.
I also like the idea of ptunnel
Ptunnel is an application that allows you to reliably tunnel TCP connections to a remote host using ICMP echo request and reply packets, commonly known as ping requests and replies.
Linksys WRT54G WiFi router.
The WiFi router DD-WRT was originally designed for.
This legend is older than me:
But I am an adult already (at least on paper...).
Hmmm, did you get it new?
I've checked a review of this laptop and it had correct ones:
There's already Yandex captcha for those situations.
I feel like NGINX is simplest to configure. And it's in the repos already, so I don't see the advantage here.
Easy to do redirects, directory listings, serving a static website, setting mime types of specific files, basic user authentication, using HTTPS, using it as reverse proxy, limiting request types, limiting bandwidth, and making the directory listings far nicer with fancyindex module. That's all I need and it's pretty simple to do with NGINX. I don't know what the Python HTTP server does, nor how to use.
Because... I can.
And it's portable.
Termux on Android.
I've got some videos on my phone I might want to watch on random computers, so I serve them up with NGINX. I've got wget-created mirrors of some old websites on my phone, so I serve them up with NGINX. Other files I may want to move out from my phone to untrusted computers on the network can too be served up simply by NGINX.
I've got the full Wikipedia zim file from Kiwix on my Micro SD card, so I run kiwix-serve (behind NGINX).
I've got all the music on my phone, naturally the phone is then running my Navidrome server (behind NGINX).
Of course, I may want to manage this from a computer, so it's running SSH server.
My phone is always connected to VPN and uses NextDNS, naturally I may want to use this with other computers, but I can't install software to computers I don't own (I mean, I can, but ... it would be disliked), naturally it is then running Tiniproxy HTTP proxy server.
Some desktop GUI apps can be useful on a phone too. noaa-apt, Kid3, Audacity, desktop Firefox, Handbrake because I am too dumb for ffmpeg, so I run XFCE DE on it. Naturally, I can access it from a computer (I know) too, after all it's accessed via a VNC server.
Am I stupid enough to expose something using HTTP protocol running on my phone to the internet? Of course I am! I can use cloudflared.
Do I want to encrypt a file? I can use GPG.
Do I want to create a compressed archive? I've got TAr and GZip.
Do I want to browse Gopher? I've got Lynx.
SSH or telnet somewhere? The clients are there.
Exactly.
The internet is kind of like second world. You probably wouldn't cut your children from the real world, but neither should you let them grow up in it unsupervised.
It's part of the life nowdays, and you can adapt to it, not deny it. Just like with book reading in 18th century.
As far as I know they don't have audits done, so who knows about the logging. Both IVPN and Mullvad pass those. Could still be fine though, but I'd rather trust Mullvad or IVPN.
