Xinyu Wen traveled to Thailand in June, planning a two-week vacation around Bangkok’s Pride parade. But the 28-year-old ended up staying a month and a half, soaking up the Thai capital’s thriving LBGTQ+ community.
In the 90s when lgbt was quieter, they said what happens in my bedroom is my business. Well now its everyones business weather you like it or not. With gen z, if youre not one of them youre a homophobe. Screw your preferences.
Hello selfhosters. I have a Linux VM spun up on my server that I access via Remmina. Would it be ok for me to expose Remmina for external access? It would be behind a reverse proxy as well as Authelia 2FA of course. Is that secure “enough”, just for a VM?

If you draw two over lapping circles. There is the middle that is existing and not trying to destroy society. The middle consists of people from both sides. You wont find many of those people on lemmy.

I think the number of places for an IT engineer to work is going to reduce to just SaaS companies and cloud providers. The guys working at the fortune 500s will be clicking radio buttons in an app and not know how any of it really works.
I hope youre right. I see companies going from having mature change control processes to outsourcing to a saas or cloud provider who operates like the wild west behind the curtains.
