Russia is DESTROYING NATO as Putin Rejects Europe for Global South

tl;dr: Russian mouthpiece says whatever he’s paid to say

Milei appoints former minister with pro-Nazi past as head of state lawyers (english.elpais.com)

The president-elect of Argentina, the far-right Javier Milei, appointed Rodolfo Barra, a former Minister of Justice forced to resign in 1996 due to his past in pro-Nazi organizations, as the future head of the State’s Attorneys this Friday. The appointment, which will take effect on December 10, generated rejection from the...

BitPirate,

Milei surely chose him because he is the best in his field. The whole neo-Nazi background is pure coincidence and wasn’t the reason why the right-wing lunatic chose him. /s

pfsense: Who needs AES-NI?

I’m thinking about building a box for pfsense. Looking at hardware options and I see a pretty significant difference in price when comparing hardware with and without AES-NI. I don’t necessarily think I’ll need AES. The way I understand it, AES is for using VPN that is somehow running on the router??? I mean, my wife and I...

BitPirate,

The company behind pfSense is shady as hell:

opnsense.org/opnsense-com/

Also the complete and utter clusterfuck of an attempt to bring Wireguard into the FreeBSD kernel:

BitPirate,

Why would you? You don’t have to wipe anymore.

Oil and gas are “not the problem” for the climate, but the carbon emissions arising from them are, says UK’s net zero minister (www.theguardian.com)

In words that suggested the UK could place yet more emphasis on technologies to capture and store carbon, Graham Stuart said fossil fuel production was not driving climate change, but demand for fossil fuels was....

BitPirate,

Speed has never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, that’s what gets you.

BitPirate,

Warum immer mit der Gießkanne? Man könnte ja trotzdem Anreize schaffen Energie zu sparen oder selbst zu produzieren indem man diesen Unternehmen mehr gibt.

zB ungenutzte und potentiell für PV geeignete Dachfläche vorhanden? Dann rauf damit und ihr kriegt einen besseren Preis.

BitPirate,

The 14th amendment in the US and the 1864 election happened in war time.

On a scale of 0 to 10, how likely were civilian areas to be hit by artillery shells and rockets during the civil war?

Hint: the maximum range of a cannon at that time was barely a mile.

BitPirate,

Sounds like an election during war time is a pretty fucking bad idea.

BitPirate,

Gnomes built-in RDP should work. There’s also RustDesk which offers proper Wayland support.

BitPirate,

Heimbüro: aus meinen kalten toten Händen

BASF schreibt rote Zahlen wegen Öl- und Gastochter Wintershall Dea (www.manager-magazin.de) German

Unter dem Strich schrieb BASF auch wegen Belastungen bei der Beteiligung an dem Öl- und Gaskonzern Wintershall Dea, der im Quartal ein Minus von mehr als einer halben Milliarde Euro einfuhr, einen Verlust von 249 Millionen Euro. Ein Jahr zuvor hatte BASF noch einen Gewinn von 909 Millionen Euro gemacht.

BitPirate,

Nichts erweckt weniger Mitleid als unprofitable Öl- und Gas-Unternehmen.

BitPirate,

Aber sie wird ja eh nicht mit ihrer Partei stärkste Kraft

Ähnliche Aussagen über die AFD sind schlecht gealtert. Da war das Kredo auch immer “ach, die paar Spinner”.

BitPirate,

nonfree drivers accessible right away

Non-free firmware is included in the Debian installer since Bookworm.

BitPirate,

Do you really know how Wireguard works?

Updating without a reboot only works for wireguard-go. The default implementation runs in the kernel. An update to it would require kernel live patching.

Wireguard doesn’t answer to unsigned packets. Using obscure ports or even port knocking is rather pointless. It’s indistinguishable from a closed port.

I’d rather take Casaos out of the equation and target Ubuntus’ Wireguard stack instead.

BitPirate,

Protocol ossification is a huge problem. That’s one of the reasons why the IETF went with the UDP based QUIC for HTTP/3.

CGNAT blocking external access to NAS. Looking to address this plus more.

For my first goal, I want to get around my ISP’s CGNAT so I can access my NAS outside my network. Tailscale doesn’t work. Attempting to access my NAS always goes through their relays. From what I’ve gathered, a VPS is a good way to get around this so I got the basic $1/mo Racknerd KVM VPS. I’d like a performant way to...

BitPirate,

Just a few thoughts:

  • don’t cheap out. Building your whole stack on top of free or ultra budget providers is going to backfire eventually
  • check the traffic limits if you want to stream 4k content from your NAS
  • if latency and bandwidth is a concern, you need to select a VPS provider with good peering. This fully depends on your ISP.
  • i’d recommend setting things up with split DNS. Your DNS server would answer with local IPs for queries from within your LAN and with the IP of the VPS for external queries.
  • take a look at AdGuard Home
  • you can skip fail2ban if you go straight for ssh keys
  • 100% wireguard
BitPirate,

You can skip fail2ban for SSH. I missed the important bit. Duh…

Never used Plex but had a good experience with Jellyfin.

BitPirate,

Jellyfin is completely free. I only used it shortly in my LAN environment so I can’t give you any numbers. It should roughly be in the same ballpark as plex though.

BitPirate,

Aren’t auto updates a solved problem? It’s only the official f-droid client that doesn’t support this.

BitPirate,

The alcohol test is carried out using a breathalyser and, if positive, is confirmed by a blood sample. This works well because it measures the concentration of alcohol still in your blood. A positive test means that the driver is (still) drunk and not fit to drive.

The test method for THC is not as accurate. A urine sample can still be positive 3(!) days after smoking a joint. This is even worse with hair samples or if the person smokes occasionally.

Limiting testing to THC alone would be a sensible decision. At the moment they also test for THC-COOH, which is a metabolic by-product and lasts much longer in the body.

Without a change in testing methodology, you could lose your driving licence on Monday because you smoked a single joint on Friday. A bottle of vodka on Saturday? No problemo.
