  • Sure, cloudflare provides other security benefits; but that’s not what OP was talking about. They just wanted/liked the plug+play aspect, which doesn’t need cloudflare.

    Those ‘benefits’ are also really not necessary for the vast majority of self hosters. What are you hosting, from your home, that garners that kind of attention?

    The only things I host from home are private services for myself or a very limited group; which, as far as ‘attacks’ goes, just gets the occasional script kiddy looking for exposed endpoints. Nothing that needs mitigation.

















  • I’d just like to clarify: the new machines aren’t MRI (the magnets in those would prohibit all metal objects being within 100ft).

    The new machines are also xray; but the xray emiters and detector are now on a spinning carriage similar to an MRI. This allows you to build a 3d model of the object and calculate it’s volume, which when combined with the density measurements gives much more reliable material detection.

    This also means your stuff doesn’t have to be removed from bags to ensure items aren’t blocking each other from the scanner.
