  • That's a super valid question, as it seems sometimes that some of these things are configured in a way that begs the question "why?" As far as contributing to documentation, that's a moot point. This is already in the man pages, and that's exactly what I referenced in writing this post, in addition to some empirical testing of course. As far as implementation goes, I think that probably lies at a per distribution level, where not one size fits all. Although I don't know of it off the top of my head, I'm sure there's a security centric distro out there that implements more of these sandboxing options by default.

  • Excellent! There's certainly a lot to unpack, but being able to twist all these little knobs is part of the beauty of Linux.

  • Hey, much appreciated!

  • The primary thing is rather than "dumb" flood routing, you can choose the path your message takes to its destination; as a repeater operator you can also choose the path it takes to repeat out. Its a slight compensation to people carelessly placing infrastructure nodes with poor configurations in poor places. Not perfect, but better. Adoption is much, much lower though, and the licensing is not copyleft.

  • Meshcore does address some of the biggest shortfalls of Meshtastic, but I absolutely HATE that they're positioned to either rugpull, or setup a perpetual "freemium" model. It's also not interoperable, so if Meshcore is to work, it needs the numbers like Meshtastic has.

  • Yeah, so far the most prevalent thing around my area has been "it's a hobby for the sake of being a hobby." No one does anything terribly useful or important with it. I can tell you that I would certainly never rely on it as a form of emergency communication.

  • Options are great, this is what drives the Linux community to come up with great solutions!

    That said... Kate is an easy winner for me.

  • A fatalist take like this doesn't help anyone. Do you lock your doors at night even though you're not be continuously robbed? It's always worth it to try and protect yourself.

  • Love me some graylog

  • Yes! Qsl cards are very much still alive and well. Some traditions will never die. The special event stations are fun to get cards from.

    Super cool anecdote on the telescope thing, I've never heard of that.

    I hope you get back on the radio, it's a great hobby. It's a nice stress relief outlet for me these days too.

  • Love to hear things like that! When I first got licensed the solar cycle was utter trash. We're past the peak now, but band conditions are still pretty good generally. A few watts and a wire will still get you somewhere with CW and some other forward error corrected modes (like FT8). I have a lot of fun with the digital stuff like AREDN, but it's definitely a different ball game and the old school SSB-based radio still has its place in my heart.

  • False positive what? I didn't give any specific examples of alerts, just simply monitoring metrics. Are you referring to the note on the Dnsmasq memory leak?

  • For any hams here, maybe this blog post will be up your alley. 73!

  • I write a tech and radio blog, if that's your schtick. If not, no worries. Post your rss feed when you're done!

  • They misspelled "backdoors."

  • The OIDC settings in the Authelia config reference were the most nebulous to me, but they weren't entirely stumping. The hard part was interpreting whether my errors stemmed from an issue on the client application side or on the Authelia side.

    I would imagine you could likely extend the config snippets from my post to work in your situation with a few tweaks. The big lift, the OIDC provider is covered, so I'd be curious to hear what else you have to tweak!

  • Hey good for you, that's awesome! My home network is also dual stacked.

    You're right about the apples to oranges comparison, but it's not so wildly off, because the commentary is on adoption of new standards, regardless of bolt-on "fixes." Unauthenticated SNMP went through three revisions prior to adding authentication and encryption support.
