It hurts itself in confusion?

Removed and apt purge'd python2 package.

Pity debian folded in on itself and dpkg required it at the time for something so that wasn't an easy one.

I wouldn't recommend putting ssh behind any vpn connection unles you have a secondary access to the machine (for example virtual tty/terminal from your provider or local network ssh). At best, ssh should be the only publicly accessible service (unless hosting other services that need to be public accessible).

I usually move the ssh port to some higher number just to get rid of the basic scanners/skiddies.

Also disable password login (only keys) and no root login.

And for extra hardening, explicitly allow ssh for only users that need it (in sshd config).

Usually I would want any playing video to disable screensaver as long as it's playing?

There are/were two reasons why I did that:

  • board manufacturers like to push the juice into the CPU to make benchmarks look good which is dangerous with these power sucking bricks, afaik this might be already patched in recent bioses but I am not risking it/lazy to tweak back
  • depending on the CPU piece you might achieve same performance with less power which is my case, I think I have Core Voltage set to something like Adaptive-0.080 which afaik is still pretty tame and the benchmark scores almost didn't move

The only workarounds that seem to improve stability involve manually downclocking or undervolting Intel’s processors.

Guess that explains why I haven't had any unexpected crashes yet with stuff like Palworld or Helldivers 2 (afaik both are made in UE). Have been running my 13900kf slightly undervolted.

Is this post missing something or am I out of date on what is happening

I don't use nginx proxy manager but websocket has to be enabled for apps that use websockets (duh) - you would have to dive into docs or example infra configs to check if the service uses it.
Rule of thumb here would be to enable it for everything. Optionally you could check if the service works with/without it.

E: Websockets are used when a website needs to talk in "real-time" with the servers - live views and graphs will usually use it also notifications, generally if the website does not reload/redraw fully but data seems to change then there is a high chance it uses websockets under the hood (but there are ways to do it without ws, ex. SSE).

Example: Grafana uses websockets but qbittorrent web ui uses other means (SSE) and does not require ws.

His Dark Materials series by BBC - decent fantasy and adaption I guess (haven't read the books), if I was younger (~ teen) the story would probably have a bigger impact on me.
