My apologies if my search skills missed this.

Is there a list of Lemmy (and/or Mastodon) Instances that have already committed to blocking and/or defederating from Threads?

Thanks!

Let's have a quick support thread for folks whose hearts were broken by Bernard Cribbin's final performance on Doctor Who.

Rest in Peace, sir. You made our stars twinkle a bit brighter.

I got a Synology Network Attached Storage (NAS) device, and a week later I'm using it for photo backup, shared Excel files with my spouse, and to run some home security cameras.

Since the NAS is on my home network z I'm realizing I'm going to miss being able to access these services out and about, like I could when I was using cloud services.

Does anyone have experience sharing Synology NAS functionality on the broader Internet?

For some context, I know enough not to do anything really foolish.

But what I don't know is what ways have worked best for others to access their Synology remotely?

Anyone using their Synology behind an inbound Virtual Private Network (VPN)? Anyone just making it routable with strong passwords over IPV6? Maybe with a simple Web Application Firewall (WAF) to limit traffic to what is expected? Anyone using Synology's cloud for this stuff?

I would like to setup something, and would love to benefit from your experiences.

Edit: Tailscale turned out to be a bit more than I need, so I ended up using Synology's built-in support for OpenVPN combined with Synolgoy's built-in support for Dynamic DNS (DDNS). I did have to do some pinhole routing, which I understand would not have been needed with Tailscale.

For those of us running GrapheneOS, Beware that the latest update to the Target store app for Android requires Google Services Framework (GSF) and does not work properly on GrapheneOS, even, apparently, with the compatibility layer enabled.

Fluff piece confirming the app was rewritten

If you use Aurora app store, you can download the previous, still functional, version using this version code:

versionCode 1906002333

This version can only be installed via Aurora after uninstalling the newer version.

Update: The un-updated app no longer functions for me. That was fast (2 weeks).

I've been revisiting some classic Playstation 1 games, and many of them hold up.

I didn't have access to the larger gamer community when I first played these games, so it's been fun to re-discover them through the eyes of the gamer community.

I've learned secrets, strategies and stories about how these games are developed.

I've also learned - apparently many of you hated Twisted Metal III.

While I don't argue against Twisted Metal II as the high water mark, here's my hot take: Twisted Metal III was a perfectly serviceable sequel and provided more fun for those of us who overplayed II so much that we even beat the game as Grasshopper and Roadkill.

So I'm curious - is it just vocal minority or most of you who felt let down by Twisted Metal III?
