Gotcha... as long as you understand that any device that receives that traffic can see exactly what's in it! (no sarcasm intended at all... if you're informed of the risk and OK with it, then all is well!)

What's your reason for using HTTP? That seems like a really bad idea this day in age, ESPECIALLY if that's something you're going to make available on the internet.

[-] tko@tkohhh.social 2 points 3 days ago

A reverse proxy is basically a landing place that acts as a middle man between the client and the server. Most people set it up so that all traffic on 80 or 443 go to the reverse proxy, and then the reverse proxy gets the correct website based on the host header of the request.

If you are currently serving multiple websites on your server, then that means you are serving each website on a different port.

So, just make sure that the reverse proxy is serving on a port that is not used by your other sites. It will only respond on it's own port, and it will only serve the site(s) that you have configured in the proxy.

You'll be fine!

0.19.4 Prerequisites (tkohhh.social)
submitted 3 months ago by tko@tkohhh.social to c/lemmy_support@lemmy.ml

The release notes for 0.19.4 mention that this version requires an upgrade to both pictrs and postgres, but there isn't any information about what versions of those are supported. Is there someplace else I should be looking for this information? Or should I just YOLO with the latest version of each?

Can you clarify exactly what you mean by a "dumb car"? Do you just mean that it doesn't have a screen in the cockpit? Or something else?

Clarification question: Why would you expect somebody to DM you?

[-] tko@tkohhh.social 15 points 1 year ago

The engagement is what's valuable. You can't have engagement without content, that's true. However, content without engagement is worthless.

With that in mind, if you "steal" a post from reddit and it generates engagement over here, nobody will have any problems with that. However, if you "steal" a bunch of posts from reddit and spam them over here, they probably won't get engagement and therefore only serve to clutter the feed with empty content.

It's important to remember that Lemmy and the Fediverse is a community, just like reddit is a community. Each of those communities behaves differently and has different expectations. Once you learn the community and the expectations, it becomes a lot easier to understand what you should and should not post.

I think the logic is that you, by virtue of the fact that you made the comment (or post), agree with the contents. If you comment or post but don't agree with what you wrote, you could manually remove the upvote. Alternately, you could just not make the comment to begin with.

Report Function? (tkohhh.social)

I'm a little confused as to how the "report" function works. I'm an instance admin, but if I report a post on another instance, that report shows up in MY report queue. If I mark that report as "resolved" to get rid of the notification count, does it resolve it on the home instance?

I'm curious what everyone thinks about the posts that have shown up here that are simply a link to purchase an item on Amazon?

These posts are coming from users that don't have any other engagement other than these posts. This does not seem like a good-faith effort to engage with the community, but rather a cheap attempt to generate clicks and sales.

I would like to see these posts banned, but I'm curious how the rest of the community feels.

I would say he overpaid by exactly the right amount.

The question is not "is it better than a normal vacation?" where of course the answer is "no." Rather, the question is "is it better than your regular work routine?" The answer to that depends on a lot of factors: your specific job, personality, personal finances, family obligations, etc. I think there are lots of circumstances where it could make sense for some people.

I'm not familiar with lateral thinking, but this reads like a joke... Is it intended to be funny, or are you actually expected to come up with all of those answers?

[-] tko@tkohhh.social 14 points 1 year ago

Selling is an art... and this is why I'm not in sales. I have absolutely no interest in trying to convince somebody to buy something.
