  • What is something you achieved this year that you're proud of?

  • Sec+ is a great one to have if you are looking for a job with the Federal government (looking at your home instance that might not be your thing but it pays decent and they are the largest employer in the US if you live over here). Check out the 2210 job series on usajobs.gov, most want Sec+ within 6 months of hiring but it helps to already have it.

  • I absolutely loved the release of LMDE, it's just what I like though, the simple intuitive interface of Mint, without dealing with Canonical's bullshit (really sour about snaps, ignore me lol).

    Edit: picked back up my phone and reread what was on the screen when I realized you probably meant desktop environment and not Debian Edition when you typed DE.

  • I'm debating scrapping my homelab and hoping to retire, one of my servers has 768 GB, most of which isn't assigned to any VMs...

  • Just to toss this in there, it totally wasn't a bug, you were sending a deauth packet to force them to reconnect then recapturing their auth sequence until you had enough packets to crack the WEP key. A pretty fun demo back then was to setup a wireless bridge between an open public network and a rogue AP (usually we'd just use a pcmcia WiFi card bridge to the internal WiFi adapter); then (due to pretty much no https anywhere), you could follow peoples browsing habits, log into their MySpace/LiveJournal/DeadJournal/GeoCities/etc (passwords were pretty commonly passed in plaintext), etc.

    It was never done nefariously, but allowed us to learn a lot.

  • Same, its been 20 years now and even though some times were rough, going through them with my best friend by my side made it so much better!

  • Moving to the cloud isn't going to solve your uptime issues, it's still hosted on a server, just now you can't physically touch it. Please bring critical stuff back in house so we can maintain it and know why its down.

  • 700+ self-hosted Git instances battered in 0-day attacks with no fix imminent

    Jump

  • I could, but then I would have issues getting to it from work; from the bit I've read about mTLS, it's not really indended for my use case, I think I'll just stick with TLS.

  • I keep mine accessible from the internet, its just more useful to me like that. I do have registration disabled though and SSO is handled by Authentik so it could be worse (my personal goal has just been to not be the easiest target, perfect security is a myth in my mind).

  • Cheapflation: The Kroger brand "shake and bake" seasoning no longer comes with the bag to shake it in 😠

    Jump

  • Name brand did that shit too so at least Kroger kept it going for a while.

  • 4 reasons Plex is turning into the thing it replaced

    Jump

  • Agreed! I stayed with Plex for a long time because Jellyfin had a rough time with live TV (antenna) and I already had a PlexPass because of a sale a long time ago. Now Plex is only still running because I love Plexamp.

  • A New Anonymous Phone Carrier Lets You Sign Up With Nothing but a Zip Code

  • I think they may have meant it like that, email does not support PGP out of the box, it is just the medium the data is using. In the same way you can send data via SMS that is encrypted when it leaves one device and decryped when it reaches its destination (unless the recipient doesn't have a way to decrypt it, which I think is both of your points).

  • Is not you. I'm just lazy.

    Jump

  • I know, I'm a huge fan of Mint, but only the Debian edition as Canonical keeps going in a direction I will not follow happily. It isn't just that snap sucks in my opinion, its that they decided to replace apt-installed packages with snaps and it feels like a slippery slope that could lead to issues.

  • Journiv self hosted journal: Now with markdown and inline media support

  • It looks really good, I'm definitely going to be spinning this up once I get a chance. Having OIDC right out the gate is a huge plus in my book!

  • I couldn't agree more, I join selfhosting communities all over and not just because I need more stuff to host, because of the community. I love getting to read through the questions and answers, even when they are questions that could be answered by just reading the man page... Maybe it just reminds me of the good old days as I'm getting older and remember asking a lot of similar questions.

  • Google's Agentic AI wipes user's entire HDD without permission in catastrophic failure

    Jump

  • That's why permissions are important, so many people want full control of everything then seem to forget when they launch a program, it runs with their permissions. If I want to wipe out everything on a drive I have to elevate my permissions to a level with rights for that, running a program with the rights to wipe their data was definitely a choice.
