How is TPM involved in making sure you don’t own things? It certainly improves security (other than the poorly made ones at least)

MangoPenguinto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How do I stop Docker trying to pull from IPv6?English3·2 days agoEven if it has an IPv6 address that can’t route, it’s odd that the OS isn’t falling back to IPv4.
But disabling IPv6 in the OS should fix it, as this is not a docker problem.

MangoPenguinto DeGoogle Yourself@lemmy.ml•Has anyone else noticed that non Google search engines just stopped working with the tracker part of url removed?English3·4 days agoIt sounds like maybe it’s removing the actual search query part of the URL?
Because swisscows.com has no trackers in the URLs for searching or clicking on results.

MangoPenguinto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Battlefield 6's beta has only been running for a day, but it's already suffering from a FPS curse with cheaters breaking out the wallhacksEnglish19·4 days agoSounds likely it won’t have community servers either.Seems like they will have them!Private servers do have some downsides (power tripping admins mostly), but it’s also great joining a community and playing with the same group of people regularly, on a server that’s managed by a person who can remove problematic players.
I feel like modern AAA games have no sense of community anymore, you just hit play and sit in a queue, play with completely random people, and repeat. Sitting on Discord with a group and queuing together (if you’re lucky enough to play a game that allows it) just doesn’t feel the same.
The matchmaking/queue thing also leads to games being designed for shorter matches with more focus on your score/performance in the match. Those several-hour long BF3 games were always the best because it was just people there to have fun.
MangoPenguinto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•This boomer couple would be hit with $700,000 tax bill if they sold their mansionEnglish22·5 days agoThe tax is only 20%, like you get to keep the other 80%. That sounds pretty good to me.
MangoPenguinto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•What’s the deal with the abundance of eBay listed laptops lacking drives?English16·5 days agoThey’re removed by the business when they decommission them so the drives can be destroyed to make sure no data gets leaked.
They often don’t have power cables either because they’ll re-use those on the newer models if they can.
They do that too, because they generate a unique virtual card number each time.
Agreements with payment processors are needed to process payments on platforms like that, so it’s not a feasible thing for a small open source project to pull off IMO.
If you just want limits on virtual cards, some credit cards have that built in already without needing a third party involved, Citi for example.
MangoPenguinto Self Hosted - Self-hosting your services.@lemmy.ml•[Question] Why should I not open ports to the internet on my home router?English2·6 days agoIf a port is forwarded in NAT and an application is listening, outside traffic can reach it directly without the application needing to initiate a connection first.
MangoPenguinto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•The future is NOT Self-Hosted, but Self-SovereignEnglish1·6 days agoThat web page is 24MB and took over 11s to load on a gigabit connection and fast PC, to show some text with a font that I find very hard to read.
87 individual .js files !
24MB to read some text written by an LLM just makes me sad about the current state of things. Especially since it reads like it was written by one, with the buzzwords and run on sentences that don’t always make sense.
I’d rather read someones opinions and thoughts as they wrote them, even if that means it’s harder to understand or has less content.
MangoPenguinto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•How to browse websites in 2025: 13 simple stepsEnglish2·6 days agoOne of the first things I enable, along with blocking location, microphone, and camera.
I doubt it would affect anything, it takes a very large magnet to damage a HDD from outside the casing.
MangoPenguinto Technology@lemmy.world•I bought a £16 smartwatch just because it used USB-CEnglish2·6 days agoFor what it’s worth there are smartwatches with good battery life too, my Garmin Venu 2 lasts at least a week with sleep tracking, workout tracking, and some GPS use through the week.
MangoPenguinto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What's up, selfhosters? It's self hosting Sunday!English2·6 days agoBackblaze B2 for storage, and I host Healthchecks myself at home.
MangoPenguinto Technology@lemmy.world•Why don't smart watches use USB-C to recharge?English21·7 days agoAs I understand it you can do USB-C at a basic 5V level with 2 resistors, and for a watch that would be plenty of power.
MangoPenguinto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•selfh.st: improper etiquette by 2010 standards? (trackers, no RSS) Thoughts?English10·8 days agoReferral tracking with the URL is fine IMO, it’s useful for someone running a site to see what other sites they are getting traffic from, and it doesn’t really affect my privacy.
I have noticed the RSS feed thing, I assume they want to get site traffic and are preventing people from reading with a feed reader or something?
MangoPenguinto Self-hosting@slrpnk.net•[Help request] How do I go about debugging my router?English1·8 days agoAre you trying to access the domain from inside your own network that it forwards to? If so that may not work due to the way NAT works.
Try from your cellphone data plan to verify.
KMC e9 chains hold up really well on an ebike with a 190Nm/1700W motor, in my experience of trying a few.
