  • As long as Americans think one day peaceful protests will do anything, I don’t see a anything happening. That concept is so mind boggling dumb imho. If you’re not willing to commit for weeks/months, and say from the start, ‘ah tomorrow we will be gone’. Then why wouldn’t the government just ignore it? No you put out your demands and sit down in Washington DC or NY or something until the demands are met. Giving it a deadline just doesn’t make any sense at all.

    Now if this would actually happen, I don’t see it stay peaceful for very long, but probably a tiananmen square situation developing. With how little the gov cares about people’s well being.

    But to be honest, the US probably needs vigilantes/rebels a la the Black Panthers for anything to happen.

    The democracy route? Yeah it’s way past that point already. As long as people like Bernie Sanders (or anyone more left than Bush) keep getting marked as some kind of ‘communist’, nothing will happen there. That propaganda has been gobbled up too much already.

    First of all, congrats on your server!

    But I was wondering, though I don’t really know much about Icarus. But why wouldn’t you just be able to run the server on the same machine? If it only takes two cores anyway, most modern systems should easily run that besides the game itself no?

    Not saying this isn’t a better solution, just doesn’t seem necessary to create a server for just that. But now you get to enjoy the experience of how deep the self hosting rabbit hole goes. Have fun and good luck!




  • Let’s encrypt doesn’t have to be accessible from the web, it accesses the web itself. It’s a subtly difference i guess, but you don’t need port forwarding or anything. Of course if your jellyfin/immich service is completely blocked from going out on the internet then it still won’t work.

    as far as I know, there is no way to put a valid certificate like let’s encrypt for a service that is not accessible from the net

    I don’t think that’s true. But Let’s encrypt does need to verify the domain name. If it’s just a domain you made up in your LAN that is an issue yes. But I have no experience with that though.

    You could use self-signed certificates, they are free. but you would need to add custom trusted CA to all the user devices manually. I’ve never done this myself so no clue how troublesome this really is.

    What I do is have a reverse proxy that requests a wildcard certificate (e.g ‘*.example.com’) with Let’s encrypt. And then route all my services through the reverse proxy with subdomains. You can get free domains with duckdns.org or others.
