I got that on my list.

I need to make a post here soon as well about my setup, I guess

… Why… or how, would McDonald’s support Israel and the IDF?

I mean, that seems such an easy target to avoid and just go “I’m staying out of this one” for any company, but McDonald’s? That just has to be for the sport

Who would have expected that to happen? Multi billion dollar company fucks over yet another person and person keeps coming back with bee stings, over and over and over…

Security researcher, whoever you are, wherever you are, I get you, you go girl! Or guy, I don’t care. I am not one for Vendettas, but David stinging Goliath non stop? Go go go!

And to affected Windows users: I don’t care. You chose to use windows, you get what you deserve

I can never see any media hosted from files catbox.moe, am I the only one?

I always love to see companies do this with a semi open source product with investors

The code gets closed, a small clump of users split off, make their own version with beet and hookers, and soon the vast majority of the users following because the real open source one is so awesome

That was jellyfin’s story, but this is a variation on that and I’ve seen this story many times now

Bye bye gitlab,rest in pieces

That’s very little actually

Move your SSH port from the standard 22 to one of the higher ones, like 53822

It’ll remove 99.something% of your attacks as nobody bothers with those ports.

to crack

Eh, sorry, but you cannot crack hashes. At best you can come up with a strong that generates the same hash, but finding the exact original value won’t happen, that’s not how hashes work, that is not how anything works.

Each hash output value in principle can have an infinity of different inouts that lead to that output. Because of that, hashes are a one way street

Having said that, are you telling me that a properly salted hash using a modern algorithm like argon2id, or just even plain sha256, can be “cracked” in 14 days? I’m going to go ahead and say “no”

The question is then if you feel the same about Russia, China, Iran, and Israel?

Microsoft is doing this ONLY because they finally recognized that Linux surpassed them flying on the one thing they were king: games

Microsoft doesn’t give a single shit about end users, never had. It always had the goal of becoming the dominant ayer, then get a monopoly, and then doing absolutely nothing anymore until users complain too much. This has been their work ethos since it’s inception and if you believe otherwise I have a bridge to sell you.

I’d say that 99.somethiny percent of open source software is also free as in beer

Come to think of it, I can’t remember ever having seen open source software that required payment

So read the article, then, before commenting

What I meant is that I have a list of about 7000 songs on spotify that I have built over the years, I would like to have THAT list of music. If I go to a self hosted option, that is great, but without the media, worthless… I can download all the music that I want, but that will be a ginormous amount for a tiny amount of songs that I actually like. I’m already hosting a huge movie library, but I fear I might need hundreds of TB more storage to save all the music that I want :)

I guess I’m looking for a “download only these songs/albums/bands from this spotify list” type thing

Linux has emergency modes for booting as well. The old ways would work with run levels, and the newer ways (through systemd) I honestly don’t know. However, a bootable USB is usually the best solution because it won’t boot a drive with a possibly damaged filesystem that needs repairs before accessing it, that sort of stuff. There is a reason why it is a separate storage device to boot from.

I’m just saying that if you take an experimental or very hard to master OS for your day to day work, or storing your family photo albums, then yeah, you’re playing with fire, because the OS can trip you up in many ways. Linux is great, but potentially unforgiving when you make mistakes. Ubuntu Linux is at the point where normal users need to work hard to mess stuff up, but if you go for gentoo or something else experimental or DIY, then yeah, you better be prepared to take the consequences when things go down south

I meant more “How do I get the media”. I have a 7K songs spotify list which is the only reason I haven’t quit the horror show that is spotify; how would I find this music again outside of spotify?

Ever seen a normal Linux terminator?

Why

That looks awesome.

I want to set up something like this as well, I just don’t have that much free time

Any recommendations on getting music and podcasts? I’d like to self host my current Spotify list to dump that service too

Been using Linux on desktop since 2002/3 and since 2005 it’s been Kubuntu, mint with KDE, or KDE neon, now back to Kubuntu again because it just works

Loooove for KDE

So first of all, you could likely still access your drives when you boot from a USB. Goes for any OS

secondly: if you play with fire, don’t complain about the blisters. And yo be clear, with fire I don’t mean Linux, with fire I mean specialty distro

You need to ask yourself what you want. If you want something shiny and cool that does certain security things that are awesome but not really that needed for the average Joe, then fine, go with whatever.

I on the other hand need a Linux distro that works, that I can trust. I have been using Kubuntu (Ubuntu with KDE UI) for over the last 20. There are bugs, like everywhere, but bugs like “this little widget doesn’t respond right”, not “oh my OS suicided again”
