I've had this issue many times as well. I've found changing the MTU would help since it seems some filter specific ranges. Doesn't always work but I've had more success than failure doing so

As a Gentoo user, I can confirm I started from sticks and rocks. I'm now in the space age though because of the customizability and performance boosts, so image is a little dated.

Glad I looked at this thread. The fact they're cheap and have what sound like reliable PoE hats... Tempted to replace a few old Pis lol. Maybe. But can at least say no future devices will be Pis at this point.

Note: only using them for simple things. Wireguard VPN (no I don't have a fast internet so I don't need more than the 1gb connection speed), pi hole, and a touch panel I installed that connects to home assistant on the wall.

I was super excited for this game until I heard about the free cam... Really hoping it's something that can be turned off. A core piece of the original horror was hearing something coming but not being able to see it.

This thread has provided genius ideas I somehow never thought of, and I'm totally stealing them for my sites lol.

Friends and I are in the upper 30s and 40s range so not young not old I guess lol. For the family side, I tend to look for all my closer relatives which range in all ages. While there were many many lines that matched our last names, the entries that were a match didn't have the right phone numbers or addresses (so couldn't really validate if they were us or others with the same name). Or it could always be that they were addresses so old that I don't have a record of them to compare to... Considering a large chunk of the data is apparently old, it's possible that could be a reason I didn't see everyone, too? I'll probably go back and dig a little deeper on the family side since I haven't deleted the data yet.

Fair enough, I should have left with the mention of mileage may vary. I checked for some more friends per request since my posting, and out of the 20-30 families I've now checked, only 1 was compromised... But they were also in a couple of previous ones too. But of course, this doesn't mean it's the same case for everyone else.

The news is kind blowing this up bigger than it really is. But I find this as a good thing because I've noticed a few people FINALLY taking the advice I've been giving for years now, and that's to freeze your credit at the big bureaus and some, if not all, of the smaller ones.

That being said, I checked this data dump for my own data as well as a bunch of friends and family. Not a single person I checked was in it... Which is why I'm not finding this breach to be that frightening personally. The ATT breach was way worse. Also Krebs posted on this today... A good read for anyone interested. Main thing I took from it was a large number of these entries belong to people who have passed away already.

Hey this is pretty nice and simple, I like it. Had to hold down on the app to select the settings to change my server, would be nicer if that settings button was within the app itself... But got it pointing to my self-hosted instance and tested it out. Works perfectly! Thanks for sharing

Thanks for clarifying! Took a deeper look on my computer and I guess I learned that NoScript was misidentifying due to the cors or something. Just had to call it out before, as one can never be too careful these days :D

The security part is the reason I use NoScript to do this. We've all typo squatted sites we visit, I'm sure. But if I typo squat a site I frequently visit and see the JavaScript disabled, it forces me to recheck I'm on the right site. Granted it's only happened once where I didn't realize I typo'd until seeing it was disabled, but it only takes 1 time to lose everything...

Not sure the fingerprint concerns are too major for me either. Hopefully most scenarios, I'm flagged as a bot or crawler and out of some data that would otherwise have been collected. Who knows. I imagine that JavaScript makes up for way more fingerprinting though.
