NAT loopback, if supported and enabled, may appear to bypass firewall rules.

Basically, traffic to your public (WAN) IP that comes from inside the network is not subject to the same level of security as outside traffic would be. The last part of the parent comment didn’t quite make sense, though.

Thanks, I haven’t seen it.

I think.

Is the template from Inception? I seriously can’t remember…

What did the note say?

That’s adorable. TIL, thanks.

Understanding dryer settings.

My boxer mix gets her wires crossed sometimes and quietly growls at me when she’s excited, like when she can tell by my change of clothes that we’re about to go for a walk. Sometimes it startles strangers but it’s hard to be scared when her tail is wagging. The best part is when the vibration of her own growl tickles her throat and sinuses enough that she makes herself sneeze.

My Plex/*arr Intel NUC server uses like 50-75W under heavy load and maybe 5W at idle, and I can’t imagine it’s not powerful enough to run a small Lemmy instance, so even this figure seems a little high to me.

Newb here who can’t seem to fully grasp how permissions work and sometimes carelessly runs services as root. Help…

Well, then… At least we will have apparently made enough progress by then to have eliminated the penny from circulation.

The current thinking as I understand it is expiry policies make most types of accounts less secure because users just cycle through the same predictable pattern of adding increasing numbers of exclamation points or incrementing the last digit at each required password change, and if you require new passwords to be too substantially dissimilar from x number of previous ones then users can’t remember them at all. Policies that make people use minimally complex passwords because they have too many to remember and don’t understand how password managers work inevitably increase password reuse between services and devices which does the opposite of improving security. Especially with MFA enforced, which I’ve been known to do as aggressively as I can get away with, there’s just no sense in requiring regular password resets – as long as the password remains complex, unique, and uncompromised. I’m not a network security expert but I am responsible for managing these sorts of things in my role and that’s the rationale I use for the group policies in a typical customer’s environment.

For anyone who has never seen one, the description alone barely does it justice:

Other way around.

I get mine at the vision center in Walmart every two years for around $110-150 without any insurance which gets me an eye exam, contact lens prescription, glasses prescription, and one trial pair of contacts. I believe they are all third party, optometrist-owned practices that just rent space in the buildings so YMMV.

All the men on my mom’s side of the family have been bald for as long as I can remember so I knew I was doomed when my hair started thinning in my early twenties. Now that I’ve been shaving it for years, I don’t miss it one bit. It’s so much less of a hassle than keeping it clean and straight and cut neatly.

It’s just hair. You can either own it or wear a hat while you wait a few months until it grows back – and then be grateful that it still does.
