Spam filtering on your own mail server is easy. 99% of spam are generic automated E-Mails that are sent in bulk with lots of spoofed metadata (domain, sending address, date, etc.). I have an address on a domain that used to be hosted by a t

Also worth noting that good bitcoin wallets automatically use a new address for every transaction, so you never end up reusing an address.

To me, (home) automation is not (only) about saving a total amount of time. It's about saving time at the right moment. When I have lots of free time, I will happily spend it refining my home automations. It's a fun hobby and simp

Sorry for the late reply, I use https://github.com/tulir/mautrix-whatsapp as bridge for my Matrix server. You need your own server to install this bridge. The easiest way to do all this is with https://githu

The cool thing about Syncthing is their public network of community provided relay servers https://relays.syncthing.net/ When two devices can't find each other on the local network they look for each other on public di

I am bridging WhatsApp to my Matrix server. On Matrix it shows the username when the number is not in your contact list, and only then did I notice how unnecessary access to the contact list actually is (as long as you don't start new

Snowden didn't tell much about war crimes. He was the guy that unveiled just how large the NSAs operations are and what they are capable of. And it was very effective, because since then there was a big move towards encrypting all comm

As far as I know Chinese (Mandarin) is actually very easy to talk/understand since it has very simple grammar. The reading/writing on the other hand takes a lot of dedication. At least that's what someone learning Mandarin to

I'm absolutely no expert on this, but I think your provider would usually filter this spoofing attempt out, just like with IP spoofing. But if you're in the right spot in the network (e.g. your provider doesn't check for spoo

It would be great if offering public IPv6 only services was viable, but according to Google statistics ( https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html ) you're still cutting off about two thirds of p

Using SLAAC is the way to go in most cases. DHCPv6 should only really be used when you have a network that is for some reason smaller than a /64. In my opinion you shouldn't really bother with compatibility. Just do dual stack and

I guess I don't have as much low level experience as you do, but in my eyes IPv6 is literally just IPv4 with more bits. Due to the increased number of possible addresses, IPv6 is used with some different (better) concepts than IPv4. Fo

Telegram keeps talking about how private and secure it is, but all group and private chats are not encrypted by default. Its end to end encrypted chats are very limited (only direct messages and only on one device) and rely on self-baked cr

I think that's mostly because only one short message was encoded with it (and it contained errors!). Would he send unique messages daily or write an entire book with it, I'm sure it would have been cracked much faster.

macOS has barely functional OpenGL support and no Vulkan support at all. Most of the value of Proton comes from the DXVK project (aside from Wine itself), which is a D3D->Vulkan wrapper. In theory it could be combined with MoltenVK, whic
