  • if you looking for a good alternative for google search, try "SearXNG"

    Jump

  • In terms of search results, ddg sometimes will find very specific searches better and has more bells and whistles. I still prefer SearXNG, and have been using my instance almost exclusively since setting it up.

  • Store making me feel like an outcast because of privacy concerns

    Jump

  • Every time this happens to me, the clerk/cashier just shrugs and is like, "okay". They get it, but are obligated to try anyway. The best you can do is be polite.

  • How to install up-to-date python for a user only?

  • Authentication for external sevices

    Jump

  • It's feasible as long as all the stuff you want to auth supports oauth, oidc, or saml. It might be a bit overkill for your use case, unless you have a bunch of services you didn't mention. Keycloak has a bit of a learning curve, but works great once you get past that.

  • Cash into Monero?

    Jump

  • I don't know how safe this is, but what I do:

    1. Make a local XMR wallet, backup, and host your own blockchain
    2. Buy regular crypto, say LTC, from a legit exchange with KYC
    3. Swap that to XMR on an anon swap/exchange, storing in your wallet 3 (optional). Move from your first wallet to another, for extra safety???

    Spend it where you can, not many places. BTCPay server, which can be self-hosted, supports it, so there are options.

  • I think it'll happen at some point, nearly always does. I have one locked on an exploitable version and it works great, I think there's a lot of potential for emulation and homebrew if it opens up more.

  • Yams keeps giving out errors, and Lucida fails in the middle of the download

    Jump

  • OPS, rutracker, or I ask someone to check RED for me.

  • What are the advantages of using a private tracker?

    Jump

  • Aside from what has been posted already, the vast majority of good P2P groups only release on private trackers, some with notices to not repost publicly. There is a massive collection of quality content that is either not available on publics or completely dead and forgotten.

  • A properly muxed mkv will display the resulting audio bitrate. And if you use opusenc, it will embed the encoder settings in the track.

  • There are a handful of groups putting out what I would consider decent AV1 encodes. A couple PTs allow them, and there are groups on 1337x. Just grab a couple from each tag you can find and see if they meet your needs. Generally speaking, look for groups which note their source, which encoder they are using, and ideally what settings they used in general.

    AV1 has come a long way fast, but in my experience a good x265 encode is still better for live action.

  • Looking for PreDBs with filenames and hashes for releases

  • How crucial are banking apps? Your experience with them vs. browser banking?

    Jump

  • The only time I've willingly used a banking app is when they lock out my VPN IP. In those cases the app still usually works for whatever reason. So far, I haven't found any functionality missing from the webapp, but I'm also dealing with brick and mortar institutions.

    I would be concerned as they will eventually probably move to a phone app first ecosystem, however it will probably take a while. Some people are still only using in person and phone banking (where you call them and punch in numbers).

  • Buying a new computer to run Linux on - suggestions?

    Jump

  • I would get a Thinkpad, either used or new, with that budget. Generally all the hardware will work out of the box, with the possible exception of the fingerprint reader if it exists. RAM and SSD should be replaceable, so if you purchase new just do the upgrade yourself to save some bucks.

  • How to contribute to groups that distribute videos?

    Jump

  • Private trackers would be your best bet if you don't know anyone already.

  • [HELP NEEDED] Unable to figure out directory permissions

    Jump

  • The very brief summary: You need 7 perms on directories to write to them. So, 774, 770, or what have you for user/group perms.

  • Why do so many people use NGINX?

    Jump

  • Good question. I chose it initially because it was open source and way easier (in my eyes) than Apache. I don't recall the others being an option at the time, or I was not aware of them. nginx does what I need without complaint, so I haven't switched.

  • Privacy@Lemmy.ml: Which email alias services allow unlimited aliases for websites with a custom domain?

    Jump

  • Also going to rep purelymail here. Been with them a while and you can really have basically unlimited aliases with custom routing and everything.
