I think thanks.dev can do this, it’s more designed around donating to dependencies of your own projects, but you can manually specify other projects.

Currently I’m working on whatports.work in between my studies, basically its an outgoing port tester so that users can test their network’s firewall rules. It’s similar to portquiz.net, except it has a JS port check, UDP and IPv6 support, and hopefully HTTPS soon.
I’ve also thought about getting an ASN and doing some anycast stuff. Especially since it’s hosted in Sydney currently, which adds a bunch of latency for anyone not in Australia. Also there’s a lot of port scan bots, and the server is doing its best to respond to all of them, with some rate limiting of course, but it’ll be good to distribute the load anyway.
I don’t remember which one I specifically used, but theres plenty that show when you DDG “mtls nginx”. There’s probably others specific to other reverse proxies too.
I’ve been preferring mTLS recently. I still use a VPN for management, SMB/NFS, and anything important. But I use mTLS for web services that I’d like to access without having a VPN active all the time. Although, if your web service had a mobile app, usually they don’t play nicely with mTLS, so a VPN would be required for me, but Home Assistant and TrilliumDroid do have mTLS support.

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that uBlock Origin has non-default filters to block cookie consent notices
4·8 days agoFYI, “I don’t care about cookies” is owned by Avast, and I can’t even find the official source code anymore.

Its the same as the Print Screen key.
Seems weird that you’d sync before terminating and killing processes. I prefer “Raising Elephants Is So Utterly Boring”. Although some distros only enable the S, U, B/O anyway.

Linux@programming.dev•Ubuntu Will Switch To ntpd-rs As Its Next Rust System Component
3·9 days agoInteresting that PTP is on the roadmap. I find LinuxPTP a massive pain to configure properly since it’s split up into phc2sys and ptp4l, hopefully ntpd-rs can simplify things.
Someone would say something like ‘you can unlock a secret page on Facebook, just press F12 and paste this in’, and the snippet would upload the victim’s session token to the scammer’s server. So that they can use the account to promote a crypto scam or whatever.

simpsonsshitposting@sh.itjust.works•I'll take $1,100 worthEnglish
3·11 days agoApparently Chrome, which i used on my work computer to get some game files, downloads images in .webp by default.
Some servers will serve webp to supported browsers to save bandwidth, even if the URL ends in
.png. So its not Chrome’s default, its the website.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What can I do with no job and no VPS?English
11·12 days agoHaha I love how this has progressed, from ‘What free VPS?’ then ‘Free VPS doesn’t work’ and now we’re at ‘What can I do without a VPS?’.
Anyway, I was self hosting from home well before I started playing with VPSs, so it’s a good way to get started before having to spend money. And I still self host most of my infrastructure just because I prefer upfront costs to subscriptions.
Edit: I meant to add if you don’t have a publicly routable IP or don’t want to port forward, you can use something like Cloudflare Tunnels to proxy everything through their servers.
IKEA’s seem okay too, they’re just not the brightest around. The older models are ZigBee, the newer ones are Matter over Thread (although I’ve heard some will also work with ZigBee).

/on every update and boot,/homeevery boot, and temporary file directories such as/tmp&/var/tmpdon’t get snapshot at all and are also mounted withnodev,nosuid,noexecflags.

Technology@lemmy.world•Blocking the Internet Archive Won’t Stop AI, But It Will Erase the Web’s Historical RecordEnglish

He tweeted about being physically and sexually assaulted by police before he committed suicide.
I think what they’re trying to say is, if Windows was a community project those requirements likely wouldn’t exist to begin with.






Damn, you didn’t even need to fake it, it’s already happening: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260401074509.1897527-1-dwmw2@infradead.org/
