These sorts of posts come up often and I cringe every time I see dongle attached storage. An unnecessary additional failure point seems counterproductive. I have a Raspberry Pi and I use an SD card because what I’m using it for doesn’t req

Not that I don’t believe this is happening, but I’d love to see the Wireshark logs proving this.

> Smoke and mirrors, indeed. It’s entirely possible this incident is an elaborate and cynical PR stunt by Troia to somehow spring a trap on the bad guys. That’s the juicy bit of the story. Has this all been staged?

Brings back memories of those “Born American Buy American” bumper stickers. I was only a kid but I remember them everywhere.

I’m led to believe that the CIA is run like Equifax but I can't shake the feeling that this is all a smokescreen.

Yes, many vendors for many models do the same. Even if they don’t you could install it via Windows. “Support” is more than just the ability to install an update. It’s to do with whether an issue affecting Linux is being addressed. In the

When looking at Linux support I start with the Linux Vendor Firmware Service [1]. If the model I’m looking at isn’t supported then it’s off my list. You’ll notice that not all Thinkpads are supported [2]. The E, L and Yoga series are not

I ran into this issue when writing a small automation tool for a friends business. The workaround for now: Right click .exe → Properties → at bottom of the General tab check “Unblock” Microsoft – same wolf, different clothing.

I find it a bit unnecessarily politicized. I’m not sure President approval rating is relevant and rather than comparing total deaths to war and terrorism I’d like to see how it stacks up against Cancer and other health related deaths. Othe

Interesting. The only issue I’ve had was ensuring knocks were received in order. DDNS being the worst culprit. Ensuring an adequate delay between knocks solved my problems. However, I use this for home (friends and family only) nothing

I use port knocking and I don’t take it seriously. Anyone using it in a serious setup is batshit. However, for fun home projects where users install that giant php based file sharing program, or that IoT camera, why not? They don’t have

I too am a fan of port knocking. I don’t use knockd, just iptables. I found the Arch Wiki most helpful. You’ll need to figure out which chain works for your setup but it’s pretty straightforward. https://wiki.archlinux.org&#x2

AMD GPU drivers are still suspect. I LOL’d at this commit [1] before reverting it in my local branch and thinking glad I went with Intel. [1] https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/commit/6385a5fd1b8a67c051b...

Please expand on Pat Tillman. He does not belong on that list. This is the same man that as soon as the war moved from Afghanistan to Iraq was quoted as saying “this war is so fucking illegal.” Full disclouse: I knew him personally… mostl

What if I have X masks and rotate their usage without any cleaning at all. Would this allow the virus to die naturally without the need to clean the mask?

Can we stop with these low quality fear mongering articles please? I’m by no means dismissing the virus but there’s no substance at all here, none.

My biggest concern when considering AMD on Linux is drivers. I see in my feeds Phoronix is constantly reporting on updates to recent kernels. However, most of these power management, etc equivalent features have been available for years f

These NAS targeted distros are amazing. However, my needs are simple. I just don’t need 90% of the features they have. Maybe I’m just a simpleton but I run an rsync script each night. The beauty is that if I accidentally delete something

I’m typing this reply on a T490. It ain’t your parents Thinkpad. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice but I’d be surprised if it lasts me longer than an XPS or equivalent would. Opening it up to add more memory and larger SSD was nerve racking.

Most of this reads like quibbles to me. The thought of possibly having permanent eye damage, no matter how “insignificant”, in exchange for minor convenience/vanity and only myself to blame is a bit too much. In my sisters case, she n

Dry eyes and halos, many I speak to say they have these issues. Followed by “I don’t regret it, best thing ever”. I walk away mostly confused. Watching my sister, who had it done ~10 years ago, struggle to stay between the lines on the fr
