I like your pitch black humour.
One aspect is how interesting you are as a target. What would a possible attacker gain by getting access to your services or hosts?
The danger to get hacked is there but you are not Microsoft, amazon or PayPal. Expect login attempts and port scans from actors who map out the internets. But I doubt someone would spend much effort to break into your hosts if you do not make it easy (like scripted automatic exploits and known passwords login attempts easy) .
DDOS protection isn’t something a tiny self hosted instance would need (at least in my experience).
Firewall your hosts, maybe use a reverse proxy and only expose the necessary services. Use secure passwords (different for each service), add fail2ban or the like if you’re paranoid. Maybe look into MFA. Use a DMZ (yes, VLANs could be involved here). Keep your software updated so that exploits don’t work. Have backups if something breaks or gets broken.
In my experience the biggest danger to my services is my laziness. It takes steady low level effort to keep the instances updated and running. (Yes there are automated update mechanisms - unattended upgrades i.e. -, but also downwards compatibility breaking changes in the software which will require manual interactions by me.)
Your tent? It’s Kyras tent for the time being. I’m sorry.
You might be confusing public IP addresses with ports?
I mean publicly addressable address like in: not in a private network where SNAT/ masquerading is in place between the torrent-client’s host and the Internet.
It was mentioned, that no port forwarding is in place.
Not sure why you would sometimes see your status as fully connectable
One side of the connection needs a public address, not both. When both parties don’t have a publicly addressable IP, the status is firewalled. I guess.
Let the patch be part of the code for one or two minor releases. Then revert the changes of the patch.
Divide by 1/2 or multiply with 2/1. It’s an equivalent transformation.
I assume you want to access a self hosted service on your local server from the Internet.
To make the service accessible from the Internet multiple things are required:
But why risk anything if the survival of their species depends on staying more advanced? It would have delayed humanity if they had kept it a secret. It would have been impossible or at least much harder to find out what is going on and how to counter it. (Is it done for the story and the dramaturgy of it? Is them acting meaningfully sacrificed to make the story more entertaining for the viewer? )
Don’t expect a story without logical errors. It’s there to entertain, no more no less. Just watch the series and try to ignore the plot holes, if you can. :)
Spoilers ahead.
Yes, it would be much more likely that the aliens come from a more stable star system, but that’s not the case. It’s also very likely that they would have invented a kind of sun forecast.
The alien supporters’ ship is cut into thin slices with nano wires because they’re afraid that otherwise the plot-device might be broken by explosions. That totally makes sense. 🤨
Also why would they use the canal in the first place? They are wanted and in addition using the canal is expensive. It’s not like they need to be somewhere soon, or do they?
The aliens are bragging that they have established total surveillance and control over humanity. And they show themselves to all of humanity on Sky TV - so that the people know exactly what’s going on and can efficiently work on a solution.
They shouldn’t play with our food. Food is not a toy.
