Firewalls can log dropped packets.

It depends on what you’re trying to do with it. Typically people only use Macs as servers when they’re doing development for Apple products.

Provide them with VPN access. If that’s too much for them, then they don’t get access. Tough. On the scale of security vs convenience, that’s nothing.

If you really really want, you should at least see if you can put a WAF in front, and put the server itself somewhere it doesn’t have access to the rest of your network (a DMZ) so that if and when it gets hacked, it doesn’t compromise the entire network.

Companies as big as Intel don’t typically go poof, they have bankruptcy proceedings and sell off their assets. If those assets contractually can’t be sold, then yeah AMD would be the remaining owner.

Step one is check with the university IT department. Don’t put random unmanageable shit on other people’s networks.

Why a Mac running Linux? I can’t think of a use case for that.

I still don’t recommend putting jellyfin on the Internet. It’s not designed for it. There are some API endpoints you can access without authentication, not to mention potential authentication bypass vulnerabilities.

5 minutes is also probably too frequent. Leases are usually significantly longer. You might hit a rate limit and get blocked.

It’s important to note that Grok is not a reliable source of information about why it was taken offline

“but we’re going to report it anyway” --rolling stone

Probably through that link in your screenshot that says “logs”. Or directly on the server. Consult the documentation.

as well as replacing “pow-wow” with “huddle” or “meeting”

What if you are indigenous American? Can you still say it then? Or are all cultural references banned from language?

Why would you want to spend more time thinking about a dead site?

What’s in the logs?

If it’s on the Internet, yes.

Given the state of the Internet, you should keep a healthy level of paranoia. I always recommend exposing as little as possible, and that means using only a VPN and not putting jellyfin itself on the Internet.

Technically yes, but as long as your WAN gateway doesn’t provide a route, clients will only know how to reach your own gateway.

Agreed. Separate device. If your VM or hypervisor dies, or you misconfigure something, you take your Internet down. Not a fun thing to recover from.

You only need one port. WAN to switch, switch to router. The router routes and sends it back to the switch, and the switch to the LAN. Vice versa for outbound traffic. It’s called a router on a stick.

Not recommended if you’re paranoid about security, because a malicious client or particularly malformed inbound traffic could bypass your router. For general use it’s perfectly fine.

Maybe a few in Switzerland. I haven’t seen any news about it specifically.

You don’t have to. You can use cash, checks, crypto, gift cards, and more. It’s only credit cards (and probably almost all debit cards) that go through them.

Keep calling. Tell your friends. It’s already gotten MasterCard’s attention enough to make a statement.

True, but I’m not sure that an extension would have the necessary access to manipulate the browser like that. I don’t think it should. A malicious extension could do horrible things.
