I’m using Gluetun via Docker Compose as well right now and can happily say all the ports exposed via the ports: setting are local network only. I could port forward them via the router probably (haven’t tried) but I only use them for access via LAN. To expose ports over the VPN connection you use the FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS environment variable. A stripped version of my current compose (example port numbers, not real) with LAN access to 6000 and WAN access to 1234 and 5678:

services:
  gluetun:
    image: qmcgaw/gluetun:latest
    restart: unless-stopped
    container_name: gluetun
    cap_add:
      - NET_ADMIN # in the default compose file i dunno what this does tbh
    environment:
      - VPN_SERVICE_PROVIDER=custom
      - VPN_TYPE=openvpn
      - OPENVPN_VERSION=<redacted>
      - OPENVPN_USER=<redacted>
      - OPENVPN_PASSWORD=<redacted>
      - OPENVPN_CUSTOM_CONFIG=/gluetun/custom.ovpn
      - FIREWALL_VPN_INPUT_PORTS=1234,5678 # allows ports through VPN connection
      - FIREWALL_OUTBOUND_SUBNETS=192.168.0.0/24 # I found that I needed this for certain LAN access
    ports:
      - 6000:6000 # port i access via LAN
    volumes:
      - /mnt/example/config.ovpn:/gluetun/custom.ovpn

“We’ve spent two years requiring our apps from the ground up to boost our development speed, which should enable us to bring new features to you more efficiently, across more platforms,”

… “and that’s why we’re deleting a bunch of features never to bring them back. Because we’re just so efficient!” Crazy how many companies use this awful excuse.

Also is that a misquote by the author or did they really write “requiring”?

You make a good point lol. I’ve made the classic blunder of not reading the sub name…

And for those wanting a simpler and more traditional application, Nicotine+ is a great introduction.

“Would have” or “would’ve”, never “would of”. Unless you have a would of gotten, in which case carry on.

Don’t make the same mistake I did. Get a backup in place before using ZFS. Using ZFS and RAIDing your drives together makes them a singular failure point. If ZFS fucks up, you’re done. The only way to mitigate this is having another copy in a different pool and preferably different machine. I got lucky that my corrupted ZFS pool was still readable and I could copy files off, but others have not been so lucky.

Linux propaganda 😎👉

Does “all” remove every type of segment? Because that seems excessive for most people, there is a lot of filler/etc sections that are over-zealously tagged.

The random office PC with an older i7, no GPU, and two hard drives I was using idled at around 70W. So… it goes either way.

Edit: This was a “standard” ATX tower PC and reading your other comments it sounds like that isn’t what you’re referring to.

It bothered me how that account just made up names for the dogs if they thought it’d get more likes. Pretty sure they renamed “ethnic-sounding” names to bland ones like “John” as well. It’s quite possibly the least important thing on the planet but it still bothered me lol.

That is a valid tactic for programming or how-to questions, provided you know not to unthinkingly drink bleach if it says to.

IMO, yes. HDDs are always going to be a bit noisy, but the consumer grades keep it fairly classy. The couple of HGST drives I got from ServerPartDeals are noisy in the “grating” way. The volume is similar but the noise is not in the normal pleasant range. I am only fine with it because my server is in another room.

It’s likely not as bad as you think. :) It took a bit of adjusting for me realising I didn’t have several endless AskReddit threads a day to scroll through, but for 99% of my usage it’s great here. It’s also nice being able to interact with posts while not being one of the first commenters. I get more interactions here than Reddit. The only things I go to Reddit for are specific subreddits like dashcam videos, but that’s a once a month or perhaps less frequent affair.

We have a movement in Canada called “Every Child Matters” due to indigenous history. The most annoying thing to experience is the same idiots who complain about BLM commenting on this one. “Black Lives Matter? What the hell dude, ALL lives matter!” then 5 minutes later saying “Every Child Matters? No shit, what a stupid movement name!” Can’t win with these folks.

Because it’s different for every website.
