But you don’t need to host your local OS in the cloud to run an application in the cloud.

Edit: clarification.

Cool so not only do you need to power your local device you also need to power servers and eat up loads of internet bandwidth. Super efficient.

All so they can force you to pay a monthly subscription… Thank Gaben Valve is investing so much in Linux gaming.

Assuming it’s like the others then I believe they will treat it as an investment loss which allows them to take some percentage of the loss as a tax deduction.

I don’t know how the law works but suspect it makes an eventual return to any form of media unlikely.

Cloudflare yes. Even if you aren’t using tunnels it will help obfuscate your real ip. If you are hosting personal services you can also block access from countries you don’t expect to access them from.

Also it seems most bots scanning domains are checking www and the base domain url. I recommend pointing those at a vps or something like GitHub or substack if you don’t need it for something else.

Use a reverse proxy that 404s anything besides the subdomains you are actually using. Always use wildcard certs to avoid exposing subdomains and obfuscate your subdomains for common services to make them hard to guess.

Isolate your servers from the rest of your network with vlans if possible.

You will never be fully immune so all you can do is add more layers and roadblocks.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain except death taxes and you server going down.

No cafes and sadly the closest store that is anything more than a MtG/Pokémon shop is an hours drive away.

We’ve had a couple of people try to open stores but they’ve never lasted. A cafe might actually fair better in the college town nearby but no one has tried for some reason.

At least I save a lot buying online…

Point Salad has been a big hit and I’ll back up what others have said about Bohnanza.

I’m tempted to recommend Cat in the Box as a new take on trick taking but I haven’t had the chance to introduce it to non boardgamers yet. It’s a very cool concept but the abstraction of suits could be a bit much for some folks.

The block feature is your friend. Use it liberally and don’t feel bad about it.

Seriously, if everyone blocked communities they disagree with or aren’t interested in instead of resorting to the old toxic behaviors that would be a huge improvement.
