  • More of a combo of kernel and coreutils, but yeah. Pretty much.

  • It is the beating heart of Windows itself, the nuclear reactor at the heart of the facility. And much like with a nuclear reactor, you don't screw around in the core unless you have a damn good reason.Doing so at random is a good way to make both go kaboom.

  • LUA Buglight is also good for documenting why a program needs admin when it shouldn't.

    After that, you just write an admin shim with the app compatibility toolkit and just add write perms to the necessary folders....Unless it's system32. Then your software request can die in a fire, and I'm forwarding the info to your boss (and mine) before you can complain to them.

  • Means to privately connect to my home server other than Tailscale?

    Jump

  • OpenVPN is my current method. Got it running on port 443 with user certificate authentication, and tls-crypt on top of that to completely mask the protocol from VPN detectors.

    Also technically prevents DoS attacks, but that wasn't my primary goal.

  • Reddit forces login to access old.reddit.com

  • The spirit of /u/RimjobSteve lives on, even as reddit perishes.

  • Hmm, opens fine with my adblocker. Does yours say which list is blocking them?

  • When your vehicle outlives its cloud: What happens next?

    Jump

  • The magnet is the antenna mount type, but I personally would use one of the roof rack screw points, to act as structure and a ground plane connection.

  • Slate Auto: "Cloud? Oh, you mean that completely optional telematics thingy that's intended more for business fleets! Yeah, that's excluded by default on our vehicle."

  • How convenient

    A Protester Threw a Snowball. Federal Agents Responded With Tear Gas and Pepper Balls.

    Jump

  • Stop calling them federal agents. They are, by legal definition, domestic terrorists.

    The Department of Homeland Security defines terrorism as a premeditated threat or act of violence, against persons, property, environmental, or economic targets, to induce fear or to intimidate, coerce or affect a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof...[1]

  • Sounds like an improvement to me.

  • Easy-to-use solar panels are coming, but utilities are trying to delay them

  • Easy check, grab a voltmeter and do it yourself.Pull the plug, set voltmeter to AC, and read the voltage across the prongs. If you get anything over the usual float voltage you get from just holding the probes ungrounded, then you have a problem.

  • Redundancies and failsafes are always a best practice in engineering work. This is no different.

  • Connected cars can be hacked, research finds

    Jump

  • I mean, yeah? You give anything a connection to a global network with billions of people, and there will always be a chance for it to be exploited. Hell, even my personal OpenVPN instance for remotely accessing my home servers has to fend off attacks.

    This is why my next vehicle will be a slate truck. Zero internet connectivity by default, and updates can be done via USB-C from a phone (which can be vetted as needed).

  • At the one gas pump in my town that does it, it's the second or third button on the right side of the screen.And if they ever patch that, I'm filling the speaker holes with spray foam.

  • I was quite out of the loop, but it sems like TeamSpeak 6 is now a full fledged self-hostable Discord alternative? TeamSpeak 6 Is Back: New Design, Screen Sharing, and More

  • Yep, still only TS3 for the servers.

  • Have they released the server parts of TS6 yet? Last I checked, it wasn't available on the download page.

  • Group of protestors used leaf blowers to basically blow the tear gas clouds right back at the agents.

    Personally, I'm wondering if I can scale it up with a battery backup unit and a floor drying fan.
