I like it :) Can you provide a link to the sensors you used?

You‘re supposed to host this yourself.

Set the DNS cache time to 60 seconds.

Set the script to run on every host delayed by some time to avoid simultaneously accessing the API (e.g. run the script every other minute).

With this approach, you get automatic failover in at most 3 minutes.

I’d host it on both webservers. The script sets the A record to all the servers that are online. Obviously, the script als has to check it’s own service.

It seems a little hacky though, for a business use case I would use another approach.

OP said that they have a static website, this eliminates the need for session sync.

Your challenge is that you need a loadbalancer. By hosting the loadbalancer yourself (e.g. on a VPS), you could also host your websites directly there…

My approach would be DNS-based. You can have multiple DNS A records, and the client picks one of them. With a little script you could remove one of the A Records of that server goes down. This way, you wouldn’t need a central hardware.

Looks like a small release, but has some IMO pretty interesting changes, like

Allow users to view their own removed/deleted communities

and

Add backend check to enforce hierarchy of admins and mods

You can trim it even further:

For a start, try hosting something in your own home. A raspberry or an older PC or laptop should be enough.

My first projects were a print server (so I can print via wifi) and a file server. Try to find something that is useful for you.

Only start hosting on the internet when you’ve learned the basics and have more experience.

It seems like a tedious workflow, but the end result is quite good.

Interesting. What is tge reasoning behind only fetching the comments vs. a full fediverse integration?

Maybe because many streaming services have locked their 4k content behind some specific apps and platforms and offer lower resolutions on general desktop PCs.

Generally, we (sadly) see smart monitors come up like smart TVs did ten years ago.

Some noteable features include streaming apps (netflix…) and wireless screen mirroring from phones.

Really? At least 90% of packets I get are deposited without signature.

I think it is necessary to make a difference between delivering cheap stuff and a new iPhone or laptop.

I think counting fediverse users is about as difficult as counting e-mail adresses.

If you vote, post or comment, you count as active user.

ssh with an easy to guess root password?

It probably has a large database of exploits it can use. The article claims 20k, but this seems to high for me.

Yes, but they replace common tools like top or lsof with manipulated versions. This might at least trick less experienced sysadmins.

Edit: Some found out about the vulnerability by ressource alerts. Probably very easy in a virtualized environment. The malware can’t fool the hypervisor ;)
