Hello! I'm working on my home server trying to get some networking problems solved, and out of nowhere my nginx is suddenly being hit from this instance tens of times per second. I'm at several thousand lines in just 10 minutes. I'm still new to networking stuff, trying to learn what I can. Is this normal?!

Edit: For some background, I used to roll my own instance, but as I wasn't very comfortable yet with network security and all that I pulled it down. This was maybe a year and a half ago. I get lots of lemmy instances looking to check in, since they think my instance still exists, but this is a bit much...

Edit 2 to fix the photo

Edit 3: I'm reading that returning 410 Gone should tell the instance that mine is permanently gone, so I'm going to set that up in nginx. According to pull #5256, since I'm returning a 4xx error more than 3 days it should have already stopped.

Update: programming.dev seems to be respecting the 410 pretty quick! I installed Grafana to finally see some network stats, and hopefully lemmy.world and .ml will respect it as well in the next couple days (Stats started recording when the container went live, and .dev stopped pretty quick afterwards)

Over the last few years I've gone through a couple Logitech MX Verticals. My current one does technically work, but just like the last one the cheap rubber coating has started disintegrating and is pretty nasty at this point.

Anyone have good recs for a vertical mouse that won't start crumbling like a dry cake in my hand? I'm not picky on buttons or anything, just work with a bunch of spreadsheets at work. The vertical mouse is just much better for my wrist.

Hello mechanics!

I've got some coils and spark plugs that need replacing (Along with likely needing to send my ECM in for a repair). I've verified that they're the likely culprit of many of my issues with my local mechanic, but wanted to verify with more internet experts on what to buy.

From what I understand, Motorcraft is the recommended OEM, and I've no problem spending the money if that is the right direction, but I wanted to see if any of these "Premium" alternatives on RockAuto would be a good or better choice, such as the Hitachi with "Magnetic Shield for EMI Protection" (A common cause for ECM damage in this make/model apparently).

Thanks in advance!

Update with solution at the end

Hi all! If there's a better community for these questions I can post over there instead.

I'm not new to linux in general, but I am new to gaming on linux. I finally ditched Windows and installed Debian 12. I've got propriety Nvidia drivers installed, Steam's installed and I've only checked one other game so far (Palworld, working flawlessly).

Monster Hunter Wilds is just giving me a headache and I'm not quite sure how to troubleshoot it, whether it's something on my side (most likely) or something else. I can get the game to start using Proton Experimental (bleeding edge), it does it's graphics/shader thing, gets past the branding, and then freezes on the "Initializing Network" screen.

I've looked through through the ProtonDB and tried various launch options that were recommended, but still with no luck. I'm actually locked out for 24 hours because Denuvo sees switching Proton versions as trying to reinstall on multiple machines, so any potential solutions will have to be tested once that lock resets.

Happy to provide anything needed, logs or whatnot. Might just need to be pointed in the right direction to find those.

System Info:

• Debian 12 (bookworm)
• Kernel: 6.1.0-32-amd64
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 5900X
• RAM: 32GB
• GPU: RTX 3060 Ti
• GPU Driver: 535.216.01

Edit: Finally got things working! Turns out that the Debian repositories don't have up to date drivers, didn't realize that going in. Fully removing Nvidia drivers and manually installing the latest version from Nvidia (Following this guide) has me playing again! There's a few visual glitches that I need to see if I can get fixed with some mods, but if anyone is having similar issues then it may be a driver error!

Now I need to learn how to play it...
