For the services already hosted by the VPS, I just point service.web.site to the appropriate localhost:port.
My hiccup is that the VPN software (pivpn) gives me an internal IP for the clients but pointing Nginx to that IP doesn’t work.
Network config confuses the hell out of me.
haha same 🥲
which IP are you trying to obfuscate with a VPN?
My goal was to hide my home IP by routing everything through the VPS. The VPN is hosted on the VPS.
Why don’t you just host your public services on the VPS, and whatever else private on your home equipment.
The VPS is 1 core and 35 GB of storage. I host several websites and some game serves on my home server.
The goal is to route the services through the VPN and point Nginx to them… but it doesn’t work.
The VPN is hosted on the VPS, which I rent and have full control of. It’s my own VPN between my devices.
The intent is to put my VPS between my services and the outside world so that it doesn’t expose my home IP.
I think you got it reversed. I want the container traffic to go through the VPN to the VPS and I want the reverse proxy on the VPS to point to that container.
I want the website (hosted at my house) to be accessible through the VPS so my IP isn’t directly exposed.
Nginx was already set up and working before. I have some sites hosted directly on the VPS as well.
I’m just not sure how to make a http request go to a VPN client
I’m using 4 refurbished drives in my server. My first one is showing early signs of failing after three years of being my main torrenting/plex drive.
The other three are new (to me) and are an upgrade from the failing one.
I’d say if the prices are decent, and it includes a year warranty, it doesn’t sound like a bad deal. Just make sure to back it up.
If you’re near a Microcenter, this makes an excellent deal. 12700K bundled with mobo and 16 GB RAM.
I got this bundle and it’s been amazing. I use my single machine for all services due to space constraints. The CPU never goes beyond 30%. The downside is it uses DDR4 so you’re still on older hardware. Still completely viable for everyday use.

This is not as good a deal but it’s available for shipping. RAM isn’t included.
I ran a modded server on an i5-4690K for about 5 people and never noticed any hiccups. The CPU was almost always maxed out due to other things (Frigate camera transcoding, Plex streaming, torrenting) and it ran fine.
How many people will be playing and will there be lots of mods?
You can use Molly, a fork of Signal for android. It offers an alternative for push notifications.
Seconding Lawnchair. Great FOSS launcher.
On top of all the religious stuff being said, he’s also cheated on every one of his wives (except maybe his current one)
Most high capacity drives are CMR, if that helps.

Compare this with Backblaze drive stats to get a reliable product:

Drives failures vary by model number more than by manufacturer. Buy seller refurbished drives from serverpartdeals if you don’t want the companies to get your money.
I’ve been using AirVPN for the past few years and don’t have any complaints.
It is around $5/mo and offers port forwarding.
I tried like three times to daily drive linux before it finally stuck.
Same idea as a gold reserve, which we also have.
Reserved for getting money when it’s needed.
Edit: idk, I’m wrong then
I was for a while. Hosted a LOT of stuff on an i5-4690K overclocked to hell and back. It did its job great until I replaced it.
Now my servers don’t lag anymore.
EDIT: CPU usage was almost always at max. I was just redlining that thing for ~3 years. Cooling was a beefy Noctua air cooler so it stayed at ~60 C. An absolute power house.
It can be done with adb:
You can if you use adb shell:
Developer Options > USB debugging turned on CMD prompt > adb devices Allow connection from the PC prompt on phone
Then add shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.sec.android.gallery3d
This will remove Gallery, BUT… The stock camera will not allow you to view the pic after you take it (it will show up in Google Photos still)
To restore the above removed app:
cmd package install-existing com.sec.android.gallery3d
The movie was really well done. It’s a simpler animation style so don’t expect Pixar level stuff, but the story and art direction are great.
