Public key auth, and fail2ban on an extremely strict mode with scaling bantime works well enough for me to leave 22 open.

Fail2ban will ban people for even checking if the port is open.

Before people get worried about this, this is how literally any online service works. If you have an account anywhere, you trusted that service to not record your password.

Only exception is oauth, which actually might be a good idea for Lemmy.

That is a lot of words to say ‘they can’t see your password, but they can try to guess it. Make a secure password and you won’t have any problems’

You want descriptive answers? Make a descriptive question.

It can be as simple as 'what is "x" and why?'

As shitty as people can be, it’s never appropriate to respond to non-damaging inconvenience with vandalism. That’s you stooping even lower than their level.

I like how their admins still show up as Admins even when commenting on a post on another instance. At least in voyager they do.

Honestly probably a bug, but it’s cool.

They might not now but who’s to say what happens in 10-50 years. You should assume that law enforcement (and other malicious actors) will have your genetic info.

No. They have that data forever. You can’t take it back.

Who knows what’s going to happen to it in 20-50 years, people never seem to consider those timescales when handing over their data to companies.

Worst part is, there is a solid chance they already have all your data from a sibling or close relative.

Blops2 mob of the dead is all you’ll ever need.

Zombies perfected. Not too simple, not too complex, anyone can complete the Easter egg, many without a guide even.

Map layout is perfect, wonder weapon is super fun to use. I couldn’t ask for anything more.
