I've been a loyal Arch user for years, however recently I've been reading up on NixOS into to better understand it and it's package manager. I think I will be moving to NixOS in the near future. Very cool distro.

Which is exactly why systemd was changing it.... lol

He ran the binary, saw the lag and then investigated by looking at source code and tarballs. With closed source code he most likely would have shrugged his shoulders about the lag and moved on. You have a very high opinion of code review. If you think code review for closed source is any...

There's a lot of information about this backdoor that is missing in this thread and it adds a lot to the discussion. Before i get into that though: I don’t understand how anybody sees this backdoor and thinks that open source is insecure. This level of social engineering could easily have...

All the years here on [H] and this is the thread I'm most disappointed in. Not a single person gave the right answer. You should all be ashamed. While I understand that rebuilding is a pain in the ass, with Windows there's only one answer. :) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCbfMkh940Q

Yep. You can have multiple kernels installed. Ubuntu LTS does the same thing if you enable the Hardware Enablement kernel. It gives you a later kernel version than what ships with the LTS. You then get updates for the old kernel and the HWE kernel. You can remove the old kernel though if...

I add many of the lists from Developer Dan. https://www.github.developerdan.com/hosts/ I find that between the default list and DD lists I'm covered very well. Recently I did add a few more that is probably a lot of overkill, but my children are getting adventurous on the Internet so I have a...

You haven't been paying attention to the BYOD way the world is going have you? And if the sword you're going to die on is over an app like Aegis having to scan a QR code to give you a 6 digit code then you're in for a rough time ahead I think as remote work continues to pick up steam (for...

You're way of thinking is archaic. You're opening yourself up to way too many security risks. Not wanting an app because it holds an OTP code for work? Really? The only thing worse than that is your desire to use SMS or a second factor. Worst possible 2FA ever. I constantly send emails...

Not a horrible video, but he's not telling the whole truth either. Your profile resets every 7 days which makes it impossible to build a profile on you because the interests you get ads for will change every 7 days.

Direct IP over a specific port. On my old pure Wireguard setup it worked perfectly. But on Wireguard it was directly hitting the Plex server IP. So http://plex.ip:port You can set additional IPs in the Plex config. So I set it to the Tailscale IP and the corresponding port but while it...

So I got it figured out. The Plex wasn't showing up in my Tailscale services list like Pi-hole or Vaultwarden was. So I correctly assumed there was a firewall issue. I was right. Just gotta figure out exactly what is being blocked because the Plex port was already allowed so this is...

So i need some help. Currently I have a working Wireguard VPN into my OPNsense router which works perfectly and I can access my entire network properly when away from the house. I want Tailscale because I want my wife to be able to leave the house without having to enable the VPN (stupid iOS...

If you're going to do it, do it right. Pay the money for the dual port Intel NIC and be done. You'll be a lot happier you did. That's also a lot of machine for OPNsense as you admitted. It'll be a lot of noise and power (and cost) for not a lot of work.

Now I'm not coming into this thread saying Google is our god and savior and they should be trusted. They have done plenty of shitty things (let's not talk about FLOC) but the Topics API is not one of them. I can tell some of you don't actually understand how it works and what is actually...
