Once again, this is why I didn’t generalize and said that the PNW is well aware of that fact, and red states have their heads in the sand. I’m not sure how many times I need to say that to make it clear to you that I answered the question appropriately. I specified how Americans are feeling to back my statement of them being aware or not. Do you think the PNW, in general, gets their news from right wing news sources?

It’s definitely not legal, especially if your school is funded by the public. That “free internet and power” is paid by someone, and if it’s the public, it’s kind of a dick move.

They can’t see what’s in your ssh or VPN tunnels necessarily, but they can usually see where the packets are originating from and going to. So if you’re say, accessing it from home directly to the server via VPN or SSH, if you’re not doing so using a full VPN service like Mull, they’ll be able to see the origin IP of your SSH or VPN handshakes, and thus your home IP.

I don’t think I’m the confused one here, to be honest with you, as shown by the other answers and upvotes in this thread. You do not have to specify non-US news to know that we’re a rogue state - plenty of US media reports on it all the same. The question is clearly asking if Americans are aware that they’re now a rogue state, and I answered appropriately.

It seems like maybe you don’t want that to be the case, but my answer still stands: Yes, many Americans, especially in the PNW, are very aware of that fact. Americans in red states [the ones who watch Fox news especially] have their heads in the sand. You do not need to consume any media at all to be aware of that fact, it helps, but you don’t require it to acknowledge it.

I fully understand and acknowledge that we’re seen as a rogue state externally, and am painfully aware, as is much of the PNW. It’s the red states that think “we’re the best country in the world, and in fact, the only one that matters”, which is exactly what my first comment was describing. People in blue states are rightfully embarrassed and are trying to distance themselves from the federal government for precisely this reason.

I don’t think I agree, and many in the thread didn’t get that idea. People outside of the US are obviously aware, the title is clearly asking if people inside of the United States are aware. Why would someone outside of the US have to ask if people outside of the US are aware? It makes no sense.

also (emphasis mine):

people in the US aware that they are a rogue state

It makes no grammatical sense if they’re asking about opinions outside of the US.

Huh?

Are people in the US

Not to encourage this as I am not a lawyer, but mags purchased before the bill was enacted are grandfathered in, meaning that you can still own them, you just can’t buy them. So, if you own any already, you’re likely fine as far as I can tell. I know that some people just go to Idaho to buy them and then they bring them back. Definitely illegal, but mags aren’t tracked in any shape or form so they do it.

The semi automatic rifles themselves, as long as they were registered before the bill passed, were also grandfathered in. I’m not sure if out of state purchases count in that or not, though.

I don’t believe there’s any sort of official “militia”, but the SRA is very active in the region and may qualify as one.

I do, about my self hosting shenanigans. But I haven’t made a post to it in over a year, and either way I don’t tie it into any of my other social platforms, preferring to stay as anonymous as possible.

It largely depends on the location. For example, in the PNW, especially Western Washington and Oregon, people are very aware of that fact. Many around here are arming, protesting, and becoming more and more self sufficient.

For their part, the Washington State government has sued the Trump administration multiple times, and for now, has blocked some of the executive orders in federal court. Of course, that depends on Trump following court orders, which as we know, he’s more than willing to ignore.

Meanwhile in states like Utah (where some of my family lives), they still have their heads in the sand, and don’t seem to be bothered. Not to generalize, because some people there are aware, but they’re outnumbered by the ignorant public there. Many people there who are aware are either trapped due to financial reasons or are actively trying to leave for blue states.

I have seen that some GOP voters are starting to feel the financial burn, but most of them still try to blame it on Biden.

Interesting, what OS are you running? I’ve never ran into one that it doesn’t work on so that’s surprising.

I would counter that disadvantage with this: due to testing constraints, docker containers are usually updated more quickly when there’s a 0 day, and you don’t have to patch your entire OS if one single container has one. It reduces operator overhead greatly, because that’s what it’s designed to do. Even if one of your containers has a vulnerability, because it’s a container, it won’t necessarily affect your entire system, depending on the vulnerability.

I suppose that it adds technical overhead (not sure I would call it severe though), but in my opinion the benefit of docker is how easy it is to spin up a new service, and how easy it is to update and maintain the containers.

You can host remote files via SFTP + cloudflared (or another reverse tunnel provider) without opening any ports. Then you use a file manager to add a network share with your SFTP information.

For the calendar, WebDAV is probably your best bet, which also works with reverse tunneling. You can also use WebDAV in place of SFTP if you prefer to only have one (or two with a reverse tunnel) service configured. Nextcloud is a great option since it has WebDAV and file management built in.

I would use Docker to do it all, but there is a learning curve associated with setting all of this up in a secure way (which is what the reverse tunnel helps with).

Graphene can shut it off at the hardware level, or just allow charging. It’s slick.

Grayjay can get around that issue in most cases.

It should be noted that email servers, no matter the setup, require you to follow strict standards to achieve proper delivery. It’s very easy to get blacklisted, and it’s next to impossible to get off of said blacklist once you’re on it.

I used to host my own mail server with this, but it got to be too much to get my emails to actually send. I was always wondering if my email was actually delivered or if it was silently bounced or sent to spam. Email is the only thing I’m not willing to self host.

Every time I see an ad, I make a mental note to avoid the brand.
