This pod cast is about someone who went through something similar, and ended up prosecuting.

See how negatively it affected their lives and decide if involving the police is best for you. I hope you agree that it is.

You may be preventing future crimes by stopping the behaviour early, even though it can be socially awkward to navigate this with a friend.

Doubt. You probably need to set the file owners in your volume to the same user running in the container.

The majority of the Internet's routing and switching architecture is BSD based. Historically it had the most stable and performant network stack of all the OSs.

I used it extensively at one job in a previous life when I was a network appliance developer. It was rock solid and lightning fast. Tried it as a desktop at home and had a terrible experience.

The little differences in the Unix commands used to drive me nuts as well...

It's a buzz word.

Web 1.0 is just websites. They envisioned everyone had their own web site to blog on. Geocities, ISP hosting, web rings, link aggregators, and simple human curated search engines. That kind of thing.

Web 2.0 basically meant APIs. You could stitch a weather API with a map API and make a weather map app. This kind of came true, but it wasn't as free and open as people hoped for.

Web 3.0 is supposed the intersection of the web and distributed apps. Think games on the block chain like crypto kitties. It's mostly been a flop since blockchain based decentralization is slow, expensive, and difficult for users. That being said there are successful use cases like online wallet management and distributed exchanges (defi).

Sounds like you were out of resources. That is the goal of a DoS attack, but you'd need connection logs to detect if that was the case.

DDoS attacks are very tricky to defend. (Source: I work in DDoS defence). There's two sections to defense, detection and mitigation.

Detection is very easy, just look at packets. A very common DDoS attack uses UDP services to amplify your request to a bigger response, but then spoof your src ip to the target. So large amounts of traffic is likely an attack, out of band udp traffic is likely an attack. And large amount of inband traffic could be an attack.

Mitigation is trickier. You need something that can handle a massive amount of packet inspection and black holing. That's done serious hardware. A script kiddie can buy a 20Gbe/1mpps attack with their moms credit card very easily.

Your defence options are a little limited. If your cloud provider has WAF, use it. You may be able to get rules that block common botnets. Cloudflare is another decent option, they'll man in the middle your services, and run detection and mitigation on all traffic. They also have a decent WAF.

Best of luck!

My parents died when I was young. Seeing other people's adult relationships with their parents is so foreign to me. My parents are frozen in time in my memories, and I can't imagine what their lives were really like or what kind of People they were.

Very common.

Don't feel pressured to approve anything you don't want to, but still be chill. It's just work after all. (This duality takes years to figure out, but if you can, you'll be very valuable)

Get the PM involved. Bring it up in retro and stand up.

Examples.

"I don't feel this is PR is up to our company standards. Here's a link to the document. Specifically tests are breaking, coverage is reduced, and your using global variables. If you need help with quality we can code pair next sprint or if I finish my tasks early. Let me know"

"Just a reminder that we have 3 PRs with needs work sitting in the queue. If you're not able to finish them before the end of the sprint, let the scrum master/PM know in case it's a high priority"

"We've all signed off on a standards guideline, and lots of PRs are falling short. Either we need more training time each sprint to reach it, or were going to have to officially reduce our standards. Let me know which one the CTO prefers"

Most people just use a browser these days, and they behave the same in every OS.

Steam has proton to run non native games on Linux, and works well enough for most things.

Try a few live images before making the switch.

Moving the port doesn't reduce attack surface. It's the same amount of surface.

Tailscale is a bit controversial because it requires a 3rd party to validate connections, a 3rd party that is a large target for threat actors, and is reliant on profitability to stay online.

I would recommend a client VPN like wireguard, or SSH being validated using signed keys against a certificate authority your control, with fail2ban.

This is not true and bad security practice.

There are exploits that can be installed without a mistake made on the users part, the user can make a mistake, and almost every user downloads and open files regularly.

Windows is less secure than the other options, but the other options are not impenetrable. The biggest botnets are made of Linux IoT devices, and nobody opened the wrong email on they're thermostat...

What a virus scanner will do is check your filesystem and possibly program memory for known footprints. A tool like this can save you from becoming a node on a botnet or being crypto locked. More importantly, if you work from home it can save your company from this issue as well!

A game changer I had for acne as a teen was putting a new towel on my pillow every night. My pillow was likely riddled with Cutibacterium acnes from sleeping with acne.

It helped another friend with an acne problem as well.

Mind you that bacteria isn't always the cause of acne, but it's worth trying this trick for any people out there going through it.

Looks like you've edited /etc/default/grub with a kernel flag that may not be supported.

Try removing i915.enable_psr=0 from that file and trying again.

EDIT: Typos. I'm on mobile

Because this isn't a FOSS discussion community.

Sounds like Lemmy is a better place for your posts! If you're still in r/selfhosted, let them know about us over here!

I would migrate the domain. Don't bother with flakey services. Cloudflare free tier can do some amazing things.

In the meantime set it in your host file to the correct IP to get by.

I work in cloud. The amount of people who have the ability to destroy the entire internet with one command is too damned high!

I have a blue light filter on my glasses. I opted in because I sometimes use screens close to bed time for work.

I'm not going to tell you they work better then a placebo, but they work as good as one, and that's all I need.

They are 100% yellow tinted. Anyone who tells you they don't block blue light is a liar.

  • jellyfin and Plex (in the process of migrating)
  • radarr/sonarr
  • jackett and deluge
  • nextcloud

I've had new hardware in the basement now for a while, going to slap it together and build a k8s cluster on top of rancher/harvester

I have the exact opposite problem. Windows is an unstable bloated mess I don't understand. Linux just works.

I use a Mac for work, and it's alright, but it's got it's janky parts (key bindings, and being forced to drag and drop things for instance)

I use Ranger day to day and just access external volumes from their automatic mount points in /media, or I mount them manually to /mnt.

It works for me!

As good as eating.

Most are like junk food Few are like fine dining And a few are like eating food you hate at a friend's house but you're trying to be polite.

Overall I'd recommend experiencing it, but if you don't or can't no biggy.

Get rid of their junk equipment and put something decent in. Discord link is a group dedicated to doing just that. You may find info for your specific ISP.

If you do it right, you won't even need their gear inline at all.

The only selfhosted github I know about is github enterprise.

If you just want to host git repos, gitea, and gitlab are good. You don't need that to host git though, git is peer based and doesn't require a fancy dashboard to work.

When coolant heats up, it can evaporate of there's a way out. Do you have any residue on the inside of your hood?

If you're experience a LOT of coolant loss it could be escaping into the engine through a falling head gasket. In this case you wouldn't see any residue on the inside of your hood.

God speed.

Those are rubber grommets. They'll protect cables from wearing on metal that pass through the case.

Likely for things with hard wired controllers, like fan controllers or led lighting. You can hang the controller outside of the case in the back where nobody will see it.

I would spend my time the same way. Honing my specialization to increase benefit to society. I love software development!

I'm using pass at home, but I've used hashicorp vault at a few jobs with great success.

IBM just forked it to openBao as well to get around the business license, if that's a concern for your. But honestly I'd trust hashicorp more than IBM at this point.

Human chess!

Grappling is great because not only do you need to learn strategy, patience, set ups, push pull, etc; you also have to train your body to do what your mind is thinking.

If the body is capable but the mind is weak, you suck. If the mind is capable but the body is weak you suck. And if both are weak, your just like me!

Also it's gender semi neutral. Women can absolutely dominate against men using skill. Same with Davids vs Goliaths.

I migrated from Plex to jellyfin.

I tried it out when I couldn't get HEVC files to steam on Plex, and i liked it!

It doesn't have the full ecosystem around it that Plex does, but that's fine by me.

My efforts reduce time spent in incidents for on call engineers. I actively allow them to work less, and they usually fight me on it, hahaha.

I'm an automation engineer working for a large cloud operator.

Jack is the man. This is literally the only podcast I've ever listened to.

All software ads exploits. Antivirus software mitigates already exploited systems.

And yes, some antivirus programs are infamous for being difficult to work with, but also remember that any vector that allows a user to easily override antivirus features can also be done by malicious software.

We have a team of 6 and rotate on call regularly. I'm in the US and receive no benefit for on call specifically, but other regions do. My salary more than covers the inconvenience though.

From the main feed, click on the hamburger navigation menu and go to settings, then go to your account settings and scroll down.

Change the defaults, scroll down to the bottom and save. Close and reopen the app, and you should be golden!

I used to play it that way to. OP. To the max. It was more fun to try the other weapons and items to be honest. The game has tonnes of unique gear!

The suggestions here are good for production. Over used aws secret manager and hashicorp vault before and both did everything we needed.

I find they're too much firepower for selfhosted, and prefer pass

Simple commandline tool, backed by a gpg encrypted git repo. Perfect for small use cases!

BGP mostly. It's really shocking!

Try changing your DNS server in that case!
