Yes, it made people realize we don't need Secure Boot and it's just a pit of vulnerabilities.

I realized it happened with me whenever my computer was idle for a few minutes and the monitor turned off. Eventually it fixed itself, but it sure was annoying having to change the brightness back to the value it was before it went on stand-by.

Do you have to do this every time you update your phone?

Care to share how you disabled every bit of AI in the phone?

They kinda already do this. Any .exe you download outside the Microsoft Store requires double confirmation before you can execute it, unless it's from Microsoft.

As much as I despise MS and think they are equally incompetent, I don't think it's a good idea to lock down Windows. They will stop providing kernel access to 3rd parties at first, then a few months later you will only be able to download software from the Microsoft Store.

Yes, it's a security issue but them being allowed to close down their OS sets a dangerous precedent that will make Windows even more shittier and enshittified than it already is.

I guess Wifi 6 doesn't work in 5GHz band?

The VPN bandwidth doesn't need to be that good, I was checking the GL iNet models and 200 Mbps on WireGuard is enough for me.

I am looking for suggestions of cheap, OpenWrt compatible routers that may have Wifi 6, for future proofing. My idea was to use it as a main router, but also as a travel router so I can plug it whenever I travel somewhere else.

I also want to learn how to use OpenWrt (I have an old router at home to test it out, but it's not ideal for everyday use since it's 100Mbps and doesn't have gigabit ports).

It'd be nice to have:

  • Wifi 6
  • OpenVPN or WireGuard support
  • Compatibility with OpenWrt
  • Ideally less than 60 EUR

A small form factor is also appreciated but not a requirement.

I checked the device tables and lists on the OpenWrt wiki, but it's hard to decide. A beginner's guide to the operating system recommended some routers but most of them are too expensive for my use case.

Currently, I'm leaning towards the GL iNet Opal (1200) but it doesn't support OpenWrt, the other option is the BananaPi BPI-WIfi 6. What would be your suggestions?

The default config for sudo is to ask for root password. I too was annoyed by this and had to change the setting to ask for the user password, not root, every time I used sudo.

Can someone ELI5 what's going on? Seems like they are still fighting about Nix allowing a defense company to sponsor their conferences, and trying to ad hominem the project leaders.

I found Tailscale/Headacale way more difficult to setup than Wireguard.

 

I have a small VPS that hosts some services I use daily and I'd like to migrate that to a K8s cluster. One of the services being hosted is my personal website, built with Hugo and served by Caddy.

Right now, I have the code for my website on Codeberg and I have a CI pipeline that builds the website and uploads it to my VPS via rsync.

I want to move the website to the k8s cluster, but I have no idea how to do it "securely". What I have right now is a separate user on my VPS called deploy and it rsyncs the files to the data directory Caddy is using to serve my files.

I thought I could do the same on the k8s cluster server, but it's usually not a good idea to mount host paths with k8s unless absolutely necessary, because container escaping is an actual problem.

So far the only alternative I could think of is to change the CI pipeline to publish my website on another branch and signal it to my K8s cluster so the files should be updated, but I'd like to know what better options exist and how easy they are to setup.
