  • Minimum open services is indeed best practice but be careful about making statements that the attack surface is relegated to open inbound ports.

    Even Enterprise gear gets hit every now and then with a vulnerability that’s able to bypass closed port blocking from the outside. Cisco had some nasty ones where you could DDOS a firewall to the point the rules engine would let things through. It’s rare but things like that do happen.

    You can also have vulnerabilities with clients/services inside your network. Somebody gets someone in your family to click on something or someone slips a mickey inside one of your container updates, all of a sudden you have a rat on the inside. Hell even baby monitors are a liability these days.

    I wish all the home hardware was better at zero trust. Keeping crap in isolation networks and setting up firewalls between your garden and your clients can either be prudent or overkill depending on your situation. Personally I think it’s best for stuff that touches the web to only be allowed a minimum amount of network access to internal devices. Keep that Plex server isolated from your document store if you can.



  • Billy West is 72, and Katey Sagal is 70. They’re trying to voice 20yo’s. There is a limited amount of content we’re going to get out of them. I’m also sure the budget wasn’t was it once was for the VA’s or the writers.

    I’m happy that we’re getting more content. Even mediocre content has gems in it. I do wish they’d stray away from current issues as it takes them so long to produce episodes at this burn rate that the content is a bit aged by the time we’re watching it.











  • It tells me what document in the collection it used, But it doesn’t give me too much in the way of context or anything about the exact location in the document. It will usually give me some wording if I’m missing it and I can go to the document and search for that wording.

    I’m just one person searching a handful of documents so the sample size is pretty small for repeatability, so far, if it says it’s in there, it’s in there. It definitely misses things though, I’m still early in the process. I need to try some different models and perhaps clean up the data a little bit for some of the stuff.

    Using the documentation as source data It doesn’t seem to hallucinate or insist things are wrong, it’s more likely to say I don’t see any information about that when the data is clearly in the data set somewhere.

    YW on the responses I’m having fun with it even if it’s taking forever to get it to dial in and be truly useful.
