Funny thing I had a paranoid freakout too before I got hacked on AWS, I had bought a visa gift card and that’s what I put in as a payment card on AWS. Of course they know where I live and could still screw me, but they would have to do it on their own dime.

They make it really hard to leave or just use a specific service only. I use them for DNS, objectively it’s supposed to be cheap AF pay yearly, but now I have to pay $2 a month just to do all the auxiliary stuff to notify me that I got hacked.

I’m buying a server rack soon and just got a full symmetric fiber line put in so I can do my own hosting.

It’s not fun, I got hacked through an archived git repo, for when I was learning to use AWS, following tutorials and whatnot.

Forgot about it for years, then out of nowhere got hit for 27k…needless to say I said good luck collecting that shit.

They waived it all granted I logged in and deleted all resources that were running as well as removed all identities. Sure as hell I did that and saw a ton of identities out in the middle of nowhere. Fucking hackers ran up a shit ton of AWS sagemaker resources trying to probably hack some dude’s wallet.

Every time I see a tutorial on how to deploy x in AWS, I get pissed. The newbies need to learn about administration before they start deploying shit on cloud infra.

You underestimate the stupidity of boomers, they’d rather vote to increase SS taxes for the younger generation than to realize they’ve been Stockholm syndromed their entire life.

Probably should sue the town for violating 1A rights.

Right wingers love to pull that one out of their arse, would be funny to see them trying to cope with that.

I don’t like the fucker either, but you don’t have to be a libertarian to see that our government isn’t working right now. We need to find a way to fix our government in such a manner that bad faith actors cannot survive in it. Otherwise we’re just throwing money at them which they can then use to enrich their friends.

No it won’t, the ratio of retirees to the workforce is getting higher and higher because of all the shit that this fucked up country does to burden the current generation for all the problems caused by the boomers. I’d much rather let the boomers experience the finding out phase after they’ve been fucking around so much.

What’s worse is that the life expectancy of those boomers is going to add unsustainable strain to the system. As society progresses you’ll eventually have less births, which means this problem might be getting even worse in the future. The only way it would be sustainable is that you have constant growth in both people and the economy. That’s literally not possible.

Yes, it’s ok to take more from you because it’s how social security can be offered to everyone, including you.

I’d much rather take my chances, take whatever you’ve taken from me I don’t want it back, but let me do my own investments and leave me with more disposable income. Fix the government before dumping more tax money into the money pit. I’ll happily vote for the guy who will try.

This doesn’t equate, if you get a proportion based on what you’ve put in, your kids would get a larger amount vs the poorer family. Assuming we’re equating to SS.

Would you be happy if you put in 30k every year for your life and you’re only getting 15k back every year during retirement?

Should I get a lower property tax because I am a person without kids despite having a higher income and higher valued property? Or should I be taxed relative to my ability to support the community? Should a family that makes a quarter of what I do but have four kids pay more than me?

Personally I think that the family of 4 that makes a quarter should probably not be having kids… it’s not good for the kid or the parent to be in that situation. I know because that was my childhood. Shit left quite a few scars well into adulthood.

I’m sorry but this disproportionately affects W2 workers who live in HCOL areas. I’ve paid into social security since I started working in HS. I’m now a 34 year old, and am expecting nothing during my retirement years as I’ve been told. Naturally I’m saving up with a 401k and Roth IRA, and you’re saying it’s okay to drain more from me because I am planning on there being nothing left for me?

I don’t agree with that. Why can’t we do a wealth tax first and see where we are, why must we hit W2 folks over the head every time.

Wow I’m surprised how low the corporate tax revenue is compared to everything else. Someone should really look at that.

I think it’s the kind of chart they used… You can’t fit 2 same sized circles like that… They could have used a bar chart.

That document doesn’t say what layer. But it does say it supports Websockets.

Just odd that when I try to set it up using a named tunnel I don’t get an option to specify the WS service type. However it does require a service type if you want to connect to it.

Looking at this page it would seem that it’s a layer 7. Although I could be wrong, but my front end app has issues finding my backend service for websockets.

Granted I even tried to connect to my private computer using other protocols. I couldn’t get through. Anyway I’m most likely going to be taking that project offline soon.

Cloudflare tunnels are layer 7, so it’s not unlimited access by any means. This also means that certain things will break btw, for example if your website uses websockets to load information, that isn’t supported.

Next, I’d put the computer that is going to be hosting into an isolated vlan of its own and access via external URL only.

If you’re going to use docker images, make sure to vet that they’re updated often and always spin up the latest.

As a recipient of something similar…I agree, but I wish it wasn’t that way. I got my current gig 2 years ago and just got a promo to senior with a sizeable pay raise and bonus. I work remote and out of state from a zero income tax state while keeping my HCOL pay scale.

I think I could go higher, but I’m against the same thing that is helping me out in my current position.

To me, that’s basically what networking is in a nutshell

They’ll come out of the woods and start claiming he wasn’t a true libertarian.

Probably drinking?

Free market ftw rite?

Do you think that running to the ER for a heartburn or tummy aches is something that is acceptable?

We are smart enough and wealthy enough to provide quality, timely care to everyone, if only we could get rid of the greedy idiots in charge.

If not solving a problem makes money…then the problem will not be solved…ever. That’s basically it in a nutshell. Capitalism needs greed to work and that is fine if kept in check. Obviously it’s not kept in check though. The folks that would do that are compensated by the very folks that make money from the dysfunctional system.
