15 days agoI think it’s one of those things that is against the spirit of a law but not the letter of it. It feels illegal, it probably should be illegal, it might be illegal in the future, but for now it’s sketchy but technically above board.

The thing about rational actors, is when given the same information they should make the same choices. I would argue that they’re most likely, instead, just at the peak of mt. stupid
We shouldn’t blame the victims that society failed to properly educate. You’re right that if people intimately understood apple the way you probably do, they’d never buy an apple product. I would argue, however, that it’s a failing of education not an informed choice to be corporately cucked.
I don’t think anyone should expect a battery replacement to be free after 10 years, but it shouldn’t cost $100,000
Just because you can’t use it doesn’t mean a hacker can’t. If someone discovered a vulnerability in the 3g handshake or encryption protocol, it could be an avenue for an RCE.
I run ubuntu’s server base headless install with a self-curated minimal set of gui packages on top of that (X11, awesome, pulse, thunar) but there’s no reason you couldn’t install kde with wayland. Building the system yourself gets you really far in the anti-bloatware dept, and the breadth of wiki/google/gpt based around Debian/Ubuntu means you can figure just about any issues out. I do this on a ~$200 eBay random old Dell + a 3050 6gb (slot power only).
For lighter gaming I’ll use the Ubuntu PC directly, but for anything heavier I have a win11 PC in the basement that has no other task than to pipe steam over sunshine/moonlight
It is the best of both worlds.
3·2 months agothe best way to learn is by doing!
I just built my own automation around their official documentation; it’s fantastic.

vyatta and vyatta-based (edgerouter, etc) I would say are good enough for the average consumer. If we’re deep enough in the weeds to be arguing the pros and cons of wireguard raw vs talescale; I think we’re certainly passed accepting a budget consumer router as acceptably meeting these and other needs.
Also you don’t need port forwarding and ddns for internal routing. My phone and laptop both have automation in place for switching wireguard profiles based on network SSID. At home, all traffic is routed locally; outside of my network everything goes through ddns/port forwarding.
If you’re really paranoid about it, you could always skip the port-forward route, and set up a wireguard-based mesh yourself using an external vps as a relay. That way you don’t have to open anything directly, and internal traffic still routes when you don’t have an internet connection at home. It’s basically what talescale is, except in this case you control the keys and have better insight into who is using them, and you reverse the authentication paradigm from external to internal.
Talescale proper gives you an external dependency (and a lot of security risk), but the underlying technology (wireguard) does not have the same limitation. You should just deploy wireguard yourself; it’s not as scary as it sounds.
What if he wasn’t speeding, and didn’t dismiss dangerous civil behavior as something he should be allowed to pay 0.0001% of his net worth for and move on without consequence?
We should be one of those countries where civil infraction penalties are calculated based on net worth.
This seems like the closest we’ll ever get to “justice” on the guy who only isn’t in jail right now for beating the shit out of his pregnant girlfriend “because he’s Tyreek Hill”
Fail2ban and containers can be tricky, because under the hood, you’ll often have container policies automatically inserting themselves above host policies in iptables. The docker documentation has a good write-up on how to solve it for their implementation
https://docs.docker.com/engine/network/packet-filtering-firewalls/
For your usecase specifically: If you’re using VMs only, you could run it within any VM that is exposing traffic, but for containers you’ll have to run fail2ban on the host itself. I’m not sure how LXC handles this, but I assume it’s probably similar to docker.
The simplest solution would be to just put something between your hypervisor and the Internet physically (a raspberry-pi-based firewall, etc)
Devil’s Advocate:
How do we know that our brains don’t work the same way?
Why would it matter that we learn differently than a program learns?
Suppose someone has a photographic memory, should it be illegal for them to consume copyrighted works?
It’s fuckin’ art though
I believe it was a musk move that changed the default sort order from “latest first” to “most engaged” as an intentional inconvenience to encourage users to make accounts and log in.
Oracle, SAP, Redhat, all of their customer portals require it for SSO. I’m not saying it should be that way, but it is.
I think you go about it the other way: break data analytics and advertising off from everything else. If every unit has to be self-sufficient without reliance on data collection and first-party advertising I think you fix most of the major issues.
I’ve met a surprising number of “good religious people”, but it’s not surprising most people think they don’t exist. I think this phenomenon transcends religion though
In the case of good Christians, the one unifying quality all of them have is they aren’t loud, and they aren’t pushy about it. They live their lives with a set of fundamental values and are always willing to go out of their way to help a neighbor. If it weren’t for the symbology in their homes you might never know.
I think it’s the same with anything else. If you’ve never met a trans person who doesn’t make enforcing pronouns their entire identity, it’s easy to have your perspective skewed towards the obnoxious loud ones you see online. If you don’t personally know a cop or a black person, sensationalist stereotypes might be your internal idea of normal about them too. Etc…
Linux users though… we’re all pushy weirdos. Not a normal good one among us :)
Actually now that it’s been mentioned, have you ever tried Linux on the desktop? It’s really good these days. I do not use arch btw, I’m a Debian user myself.
Yeah I was going to say the same thing, I used to drink a lot and I never did anything drunk that I didn’t want to do sober. The drinking just impairs judgement and how much you care about consequences in the moment.
