Is this machine sitting in your LAN, or on its own firewalled off network with a DMZ? No matter how secure it is, you don’t want it on the same network as the machine you do your taxes on.
A good poor mans option is to get a pfsense box with 3 NIC’s. One for WAN, one for LAN, and one for the machine you publicly host with.
Setup firewall rules so that LAN can reach the MC host on needed ports, but not the other way around.
Yes and no, if you have large-scale projects that require a ton of people, donations can be necessary.
Just because you take donations doesn’t mean you have a profit motive.
Also processing time, especially on weaker hardware or with bigger files.
On one hand I don’t trust random cracks not to have miners in them.
On the other I wouldn’t run a proprietary video game outside of a sandboxed VM any who.
She said slut referring to herself, and within the context of being a slut for something that isn’t inherently sexual.
Edit: Nope misread that. Either way there are a lot more contexts where one can use slut and not be shitty.
Well one of those is ableist while the other ones are just fun.
Yeah that’s why I threw “especially those in industry”.
Either way if you’re not writing software then yeah sorry your input matters less on the language we use to describe it.
I’m not gonna walk over to a doctors office and start arguing that the language they use is wrong because it doesn’t line up with what I know as a layperson.
Whether or not its “invalid” isn’t the point. Those are the accepted terms by most people, especially those in the industry. The point of language is to communicate ideas.
When most people say “free software”, they’re talking about software that’s free as in freedom. Using it otherwise just causes unnecessary confusion.
You’d maybe have a point if this was made up today, or even 10 years ago, but this was settled during the early years of the industry. Free software is free as in freedom, freeware is gratis but not free.
This is established industry jargon, and has been for over two fucking decades. Not really sure why its being argued.
You’re right, the first amendment wasn’t about freedom of expression, it was about not having to pay for books.
Using the word free to describe something that doesn’t restrict you has been a thing for centuries. “Free Software” has been the accepted term within the software world to denote freedom respecting, libre, and open source software since the 80’s.
This isn’t about because Richard Stallman said so. Its because its the definition pretty much everyone, especially those who’ve actually touched a compiler, uses.
If its personal or internal only copyright wont’t matter since no one will have it to release it.
Just don’t give it out.
You’re adding attack surface by keeping them separated only by vlan. VLAN hopping exploits exist, especially in older firmware, ESPECIALLY on EoL units.
Pfsense is a proper router/firewall built on one of the most hardened networking stacks on the planet. Plus it catches regular software updates, no matter how old your hardware is. You can run it on an old PC with a cheap quad gigabit nic card from eBay if you’d like.
If I might ask, what do you have handling your inter-vlan routing/firewall? Is it the same box you use to handle the firewall/routing between your WAN and LAN?
