If this server is running Linux, you can use autossh to forward some ports in another server. In this example, they only use it to forward ssh port, but it can be used to forward any port you want: https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2022/ssh-and-http-raspberry-pi-behind-cg-nat

By "remotely accessible", do you mean remotely accessible to everyone or just you? If it's just you, then you don't need to setup a reverse proxy. You can use your router as a vpn gateway (assuming you have a static ip address) or you can use tailscale or zerotier.

If you want to make your services remotely accessible to everyone without using a vpn, then you'll need to expose them to the world somehow. How to do that depends on whether you have a static ip address, or behind a CGNAT. If you have a static ip, you can route port 80 and 443 to your load balancer (e.g. nginx proxy manager), which works best if you have your own domain name so you can map each service to their own subdomain in the load balancer. If you're behind a GCNAT, you're going to need an external server/vps to route traffics to its port 80 and 443 into your home network, essentially granting you a static ip address.

Someone actually did a comparison recently. Pretty interesting if you got the time to read it: https://danluu.com/seo-spam/ . tldr: google and bing bad.

There is also a recent study by researchers on Leipzig University that confirm google is getting worse : https://downloads.webis.de/publications/papers/bevendorff_2024a.pdf

If you didn’t use YouTube then you would still use another Google entity to find it.

The thing is I don't use google anymore to search these days now that other search engines noticeably produce better results.

Many of those information are also available in other places. When I need to fix something, I'm usually able to find what I need on the web (manuals, blog posts, etc) before resorting to searching youtube videos on how to do it. Some truly niche stuff are only available on youtube though (e.g. some dude filming himself doing his niche job), but I can count on one hand the instances I needed one of those.

While I have revanced on my phone and smarttube on my chromecast, the last time I watched a youtube video for an extended amount of time was two month ago. I did open those apps a few weeks ago, but only to see if youtube finally blocks them. So yeah, I guess I can quit youtube cold turkey now.

Combine this with an LLM with speech-to-text input and we could create a talking paintings like in harry potter movies. Heck, hang it on a door and hook it with smart lock to recreate the dorm doors in harry potter and see if people can trick it to open the door.

So, it's like folding@home, but instead of donating your spare compute to science, you sell it to generate porn?

I wonder if it's still true now that most phone manufacturers enable Memory Extension by default. This feature will likely reduce storage lifespan especially on low end devices that don't have big RAM.

Those that propose moving to UTC should take responsibility and take the +12h offset. Why should we let the brits enjoy +0 offset while the rest of the world got the short end of the stick (especially those living in the pacific)?

It's usually used for storage servers these days. ZFS is most stable there.
