You could try putting up a cloudflare proxy and Turnstile (their captcha product) to try to help with it.
The truth is, though, if it’s static content, then you have to be able to stop them every time. Once they get it once, they got it. With how frequently they can try, it’s going to be difficult to stop them.
It’s up to you. Things to consider:
If your recovery objectives can be met with the anticipated data size and recovery speed, then you could do RAID 0 instead of RAID 1 to get higher speeds and capacity. Just know that if you do that, you better be on top of your backups because they will be needed eventually.
Ugh but it’s acting as the SAN so I have to shut down like all my servers to run updates on it. What a PITA.
I can handle dynamically typed, but the whitespace thing kills me. I kind of really like PowerShell.
Idk but Boost has a button for adding pictures to comments.
Idk but I wouldn’t risk it when it’s easy to encrypt stuff. Good security is done in layers.
What about a torrent? You’ll have to encrypt with 7zip or something to keep it secure, but that and qbitorrent will do the trick.
You won’t be able to upgrade to new versions when the support contract runs out, but you can install updates to the existing version as long as updates are made for it. This has always been the lifecycle for perpetual licensing. It’s good forever, but at a certain point it becomes a security risk to continue using. The difference here is they won’t sell you another perpetual license when the lifecycle is up.
They’re terminating in the sense that they won’t sell it anymore. They’re not breaking the licensing they’ve already sold (mostly, there was some fuckery with activating licensing they sold through third parties)
I had a few domains there. I migrated them to Cloudflare as soon as I saw the news that this was coming.
I’m probably gonna go cloudflare because that’s what I’ve had the best experience with besides Google Domains
Most things people self host are either torrent clients, HTTP(s) or are game servers. The first one can pick a port arbitrarily. The second can do host routing. The third - some of them support SRV records so you can direct the client to an arbitrary port. It’s becoming less common to need multiple public IPv4 addresses.
