  • If drug dealers question the police on planting stuff or saying it was someone elses. Can they not request a fingerprint test?

    Jump

  • i think with fingerprinting, it provides evidence that someone touched something, not that someone did not touch it

  • the projection is strong in this one

  • (How) can a modem spy on you?

    Jump

  • the questions of can they spy, and will they spy are different questions. at some US ISPs (at least the one i am at) the modems usually are only monitoring performance, ie number of packets, errored and discarded packets for troubleshooting. as far as the modem which i will assume is just a layer 2 bridge to your provider, usually not a whole lot going on there due to costs of the hardware. where the privacy violations are going to occur in the access equipment or core. this is what your modem connects to, then your traffic crosses on the way to the "greater internet" if your not using a vpn to outside of your provider, there is no way around it, they can and probably do tap into what your doing. a lot of them it may not be overly nefarious, i know my company does not sell customer data, and we generally only access it for troubleshooting and bandwidth analysis for upgrades, or as ordered by a court for law enforcement.

    if you use a router from your isp almost every manufacturer is trying to sell all these different analytics and dpi that basically tells us what websites customers are visiting and how much/type of traffic to those sites, but directly from the router. same, or greater level of privacy violation as that can see local traffic on your lan, as well as watching wifi connection strength and scanning to see air quality and neighbors for "troubleshooting" or to sell access points.

  • Sure Thing

    Jump

  • it's the attitude that one side says both sides have, but we know they (and you) already live in an invented reality anyway.

  • Power outage worries

    Jump

  • make sure it's configured for clean shut downs before your battery runs out, auto power up on restoration, and hope it doesn't happen. you will eventually have an outage that outlasts your batteries.

    I have a large string of batteries from an old telco office, that runs my rack for 14hrs (calculated, I shut everything down around this time) and that did not last for the 2-3 day outage we had after a storm. Without a generator, you will inevitably have an outage, but if you are prepared, then you can mitigate any damage. use NUT if you need to shutdown or power multiple devices from one monitored UPS

  • Kindle's screen is partially frozen with the screensaver, the rest of the screen works normally. Already reset it and factory reset it, does anyone know if I can save it somehow?

    Jump

  • I used to use kindles when I was growing up, as my dad and grandpa had large amazon libraries I was able to read from. It started with the keyboard kindles up to one of the touch e-ink ones and with the exception of the last one, every one of them had the screen fail.

    I have since switched to a kobo clara 2e BW, using books loaded from calibre. the price point was comfortable, with more features than I expected (waterproof, bluetooth and wifi, ability to sign directly into library accounts), I was also happy with battery life, I read on planes/trains to pass the time and had a two week long trip where I was doing a lot of traveling by train and I didn't need to charge at all.

    I plug into my computer and load books manually I also have been looking towards doing something OTA for books and page sync, libre and self hosted.

  • What does this mean?

  • Networking Novice: Setting up VM - How can I bind it to a VPN?

    Jump

  • This is possible, and exact directions will vary on distribution of the vm client. I personally do this but with split horizon dns and dnsmasq on a vm.

    impossible to leak is where it gets tricky, and that will require an understanding of networking in your distribution. there will also be tutorials on this, but it's very easy to mess up.

  • [Question] Migrating and Upgrading Proxmox to New SSDs on Poweredge Safely

    Jump

  • would be a good idea to test the backups on 7, and double check the release notes, they hold just about every caveats. The 7to8 upgrade was not horrible, if you have backups, you could always attempt the upgrade after taking backups, then if successful take new backups, test, then install new drives and restore. depends on how paranoid you feel.

    If this was a production system, that is probably the change plan i would follow, but in production I would also be able to migrate VMs. I am not nearly as careful in the home environment.

  • Email server thru cloudflare

    Jump

  • maybe a vpn provider that uses openvpn? advanced setup but you can have an openvpn client auto connect on boot and bind the mail and ddclient to the tunnel interface.

    cloudflare has good support for ddclient, so when your IP changes updates are automatic.

  • Unifi AP behind an extra switch: 2.4Ghz network stops working after ~30 minutes

    Jump

  • from your router can you ping the AP behind that switch, while the issue is occurring? All L2 unmanaged switches, no tagging? POE from the switch or an injector? If from the switch maybe put an injector in between?

    I work for an ISP in the network engineering dept, I personally have never seen an issue exactly like this before, but we generally do power calculations for switching and wifi, this sounds like a power issue to me.

  • Why Prometheus + Grafana over other monitoring options?

    Jump

  • one of the reasons you see these as separate is because of the amount of modularity you get with grafana, you don't always use it with prometheus, sometimes with ELK sometimes Influx and Telegraf. If you intend to set it up outside of the "typical" you start to really appreciate one piece doing one thing, and doing it well.

  • self hosted digital journal?

    Jump

  • i like it, i have been pretty happy with it, but i was also specifically looking for keeping notes in markdown, so ymmv depending on what you want/need. i run it on a docker server i already had, using compose and it has been very stable
