I live in an area with strong winds and I’m happy with Knirps, they can be found in both NA and EU.

More expensive than “regular” umbrellas, but they are built to last and are compact to boot.

disabling image uploads and image serving

I’m assuming this means death for image-based communities here on infosec (the hardware community comes to mind).

Will this impact images originating from (served by) other instances?

The SEO-angle is interesting, thank you for the insight!

Unless the BIOS locks down control of fan speed (as is the case with some Dell models), you should be able to use fancontrol to modify your fan curve.

You can install it with sudo apt install fancontrol, then you would run sudo pwmconfig to run fan tests and create a config file. If the tests came out alright, enable fancontrol with sudo systemctl enable fancontrol --now.

For more information and suggestions, take a look at the this ArchWiki entry.

Trying to catch up on documentation, I’ve been implementing a couple of services during the past few weeks and need to write it all down before I forget.

I do this for every service I implement as part of my backup strategy, it tends to be easier to recover from a disaster when you have reproducible steps to follow.

A reminder: if you care enough to validate the checksum of your recently downloaded ISO, don’t follow links from a stranger. Navigate to the distributors website and find the checksum yourself.

See edit :)

I respect and understand your decision, I’ve personally had to block a few communities from that instance due to their problematic content.

For the sake of transparency (which I feel have been the spirit of this instance so far), could you give us some examples that led up to this decision?

It might be a question of moderation.

What do you do as an instance owner if you get notified that one of your communities are acting abusive to other instances/communities? You could take a look at the activity yourself and take action accordingly, this process becomes harder if the community is in a language you do not speak.

Or perhaps this is a non-issue and it’s sufficient with a dutch-speaking community moderator.

Perhaps one of our community moderators (or our instance owner) here at infosec.pub could share their thoughts on language and moderation?

Glad I could help!

I think everyone that selfhost their RSS-feeds have at one point or another thought “now what?”.

I have 3 recommendations that might help get you started:

• feedspot is a great place to start to just discover what’s out there.

• GitHub releases can be followed as RSS (atom) feeds. This is a great way to keep up with changelogs for services that you selfhost. For example, here is the RSS/Atom feed for Jellyfin: link

• Do you listen to podcasts? These can usually be found as RSS-feeds and is a great way to get your daily dose of news on your morning commute.

I read your response, thank you for taking the time to clear it up!
