I don’t have any firewalls, and https://206.x.x.x and the internal IP one both worked.

The external IP is properly bringing me to the portfolio, its just the subdomain that now seems to be blocked.

It does. I think my subdomain is being blocked by ISPs.

I’ve done further testing with external network connections. I’m getting a Blocked hosts error, it seems my subdomain is being targeted by ISPs.

I get a 206 address that matches my server’s public IP. My laptop is on the same network as the portfolio, but I did test external connections using a mobile hotspot, which resulted in me successfully connecting to the IP address with telnet, but not being able to connect to the domain name. On my phone’s browser, while on data, I was able to access my portfolio website using the public IP address as the URL, rather than the domain name.

I don’t think it is, but its hard to tell for sure.

Yeah the DNS’ public IP matches my server’s. The access logs have some connections from the SSL validation and from when I successfully connected using the public IP address. The error logs are empty.

I did it this way because I didn’t think a randomly generated domain name from cloudflare would be professional enough. I might have to go with that if I can’t get this working though.

Yes it does.

The error was: ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT. I also got an ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED earlier.

Yes, that’s what I did.

I can’t connect to the domain at all. I think the certificate problem was because I was connecting with the IP address rather than the domain name.

I get ERR_CONNECTION_TIMED_OUT when trying to connect to it. I don’t get any error logs on the server itself. I also got an ERROR_CONNECTION_REFUSED earlier.

I got my SSL certs from running certbot. I don’t use DDNS.

If I ever need to switch to the root user, I usually type su, but I saw someone use sudo su - in a video, which I thought was pretty strange but maybe the video creator knew something I didn’t, or it wasn’t possible to simply su a few years ago.

I love this sort of thing. Is there a group that specifically focuses on computing history?

Heroes of the Storm is still up after it stopped getting updates years ago.

The problem is the law of popularity. My friends wont move to an open-source decentralized alternative unless their friends do and their friends wont unless their friends do and…

I’m not saying it doesn’t work, there are alot of things I think China does right, and I by no means think these representative republics of the west are anything more than veiled oligarchies, as China is a veiled technocracy. I just don’t think its right to call any regime that isn’t accountable to its population a democrarcy, I don’t think its even right to call republics with infrequent or no referendums a democracy.

Except they have a very tiered system, where elections only occur for positions at the lowest level, and the higher tier the position is the less accountable they are to the will of the people. There is no governance by the people there, I would argue there isn’t in most countries that claim to be democratic, but its even more blatant in a system where the rulers aren’t even representatives of the people, just representatives of a slightly lower tier of the only legal party.
