It is doable to install an OS onto a flash drive or external drive, but from my experience it was really slow. Just need to make sure to then boot the machine to the USB device. Some machines you might find it difficult to change that in the BIOS.

Let’s go!!

This is looking great! Going to be a nice addition to the kbin experience. Can’t wait!

This is going to be a game changer for kbin! Can’t wait!

Still love the GameCube and games. This is what we introduced the kids too and it’s been fun watching them play the games that brought me a lot of fun too.

• Mario Kart

• Super smash brothers

• Crazy Taxi

Could find the RCA connections on tvs now, but the Wii was great in the backward compatibility! Dolphin worked great for some games too, and a controller USB adapter and we’re in business!

I never got any help asking questions there anyways. Answers I got back we’re trollish. When I provide and answer it can’t be the answer as it’s based on your own reputation score which you can’t get but answering questions. It seems like a flawed system. Didn’t know they had mods either. Never really got any solutions either from stack overflow, unless you read every comment for the right answer.

Changing ports isn’t a terrible thing, also not the perfect “fix” either, as you can still recognize open ports and scan the service on them.

Some ports are reserved in networking, so should stay away from those.

Some ISPs don’t allow you open ports on 80/443 as those are web hosting ports and they provide a service to consumers to download content from the internet, not for their consumer to be a web hosting provider as well. That’s at the residential level, if you have a business plan that might change, but it might be hard to convince and ISP otherwise.

Could you see anything…? All kbin.social items being blocked, not just the content?

Also seems like Dansup is finding a lot of spam accounts on lemmy instances too. He manages the fedidb of all the fediverse software and platforms with various metrics

Interesting the app and website tell you the website is not on the latest version. That’s good for both the user and site owners to keep the software updated. It like everyone said, lemmy took away some admin and captcha settings with the last upgrade. Many server admins are waiting for them to be restored.

I recently switched to Fedora to help get into the Arch based Linux realm. Historically been on Debian based distros. You can’t go wrong with many of the “mainstream” distributions as your first intro to Linux. If you come across any issues ask away and that it a how you’ll learn more about how Linux works, Arch, etc with your hardware too.

I run a PiHole and have Quad9 as the upstream resolver instead of the ISP. That was pretty simple to setup as well. You can also do DNS-over-HTTPs and other options as well for content filtering to block malware and items of DNS upstream.

Thanks @lilkev !

How many are you looking at using for the private beta? Might want to adjust the google form to only allow one signup per account, so users dont reregister.

I signed up! I got into the fediverse and enjoyed it a year ago! I’m using kbin more at the moment and would like to help support the process. Also have a lemmy account as well to test some of the multiaccount features and when users have both lemmy and kbin. You can find me on kbin or mstdn as well!

Thanks for your work in getting the first apps made for these platforms.

Ubuntu is already looking to All-Snap Ubuntu Desktop Will Be Available Next Year

I saw that one too. I was looking to see how we could add the “related” magazines and federated sites together as well.

I’ve started/modding

• /m/Powershell
• /m/11ty
• /m/wordle
• /m/Blog

Cloudflare DNS proxied dns to be exact too. They also allow DNS only which is not routed through Cloudflare and the services.

What is hard too, is if all the posts to get things started are the mods or creator, the same ghost town might occur. It’s hard to tell or know what will be interesting to get people talking so to speak. Some should also be put on the subscribers as well who also have an interest. It’s a double edge sword sometimes.
