I thought self hosting was about learning networking basics like DNS and setting up let's encrypt.

So much whining in here about the most simple stuff being too complex.

No, sadly most of the abuse never makes widespread news

Bodycams are making a lot more of these available now too. Saw a brutal one where cops paralyze a handcuffed guy by breaking his neck, then they sit prop him up in a sitting position and complain that hes uncooperative because won't move.

That was a year ago, the dude is dead and the cops got off scott free.

They're a one day old account posting nonsense. They aren't serious

Basically that. I don't do it much anymore, but it used to be helpful.

Wow, getright! That's a throwback. I used that in the 90s.

On linux I use aria2c for similar tasks. It can resume http downloads, as well as split them up into multiple threads for faster downloading.

It's cli-based and powerful (therefore perhaps a bit confusing at first), but there are UIs for it as well for a more get-rightty experience.

I think jdownloader also has some application here, though it's mostly for getting things from those ad-filled file hosting sites frequently used by those on the high seas

In a moment of weakness and angry clients I once paid uce.

Shortly thereafter my credit card got stolen. That is the one time in my life that has ever happened. It was my business card which rarely get used.

Coincidence? Up to the reader.

Iirc they can compel you to provide passwords at the border. You have far fewer rights at the border than once in the country

Uhm actually the k6-2 took EDO or SDRAM. You won't get it running with DDR.

I spent way too much time on this the first time I came across it

Joyously frustrating game

So long as attempts aren't per IP and or ipv6 isn't allowed

That would get them a lot of publicity
