My goals for this firewall were mostly to provide better robot blocking and perhaps some more powerful DDoS protection than my Raspberry Pi 3 web server is capable of delivering. I still have to do some testing before I will know if my new firewall actually provides either of those, but at least I now have the additional ability to run multiple physical web servers on my LAN. Exploring that should be fun, and fun is a very important component of running a home web server.
Not my article. Just sharing.
I’m still trying to make ‘sloppers’ happen. Perfectly describes the lack of thought that goes into what they produce.
I like ‘sloppers’ as a term for the morons distrubing and consuming the shit that the clankers are excreting.
clankers make the end result that sloppers (meatbags) eat up ;)
Yeah and the make a mess of network traffic that slows everything down.
Sludgers works too, but I like slop for the LLM output, so it makes sense as the bot term of derision.
