Immigrants shockingly often vote conservative.

I am not sure what these results mean exactly. Perhaps the third generation is some specific type versus the second.

I’m liking thunder, it supports multiple accounts. Switching accounts is a bit bugged, i have to close the app to have all ui elements update properly.

dragonfly4933,

They can do both, and if their stance is at all ideologically motivated, then it is necessary to focus on more than just the low hanging fruit of doing reviews.

The free software movement is more than just the free software existing. It is also congruent to the laws that permit it and extending rights

Right to repair is about more than simply fixing things. It’s about going after companies and lobbying to get actual rights enshrined into law.

dragonfly4933,

If you were willing to spend money, why not just get it from RH directly.

dragonfly4933,

Note that v1 and v2 torrents use slightly different url fragments, so this won’t work quite as easily as you think. It would be possible tell the difference because they use different hashes with different lengths, but most people probably won’t know.

dragonfly4933,

Why would you strip ipv6 if mullvad supports it. The reason people disable or block v6 are for 2 reasons, ignorance, and/or the vpn providor doesn’t support ipv6. V4 and v6 can and usually do run at the same time (this is called dual stack), so if the vpn only touches the v4 side of things, v4 will be tunneled while v6 will be unaffected.

Also, the firewall doesn’t matter if you use a torrent client that can just bind to the wg interface (assuming there is no nat being performed from the wg interface to the physical interface). The client will take one or all of the ips on the interface, which will make it impossible to leak IP directly assuming your switch or router doesn’t also have an ip in the same subnet as your wg interface ip.

I don’t know UFW, but if you run iptables-save or nft list ruleset i can take a look to see if it is sane.

But what i can tell is that it might work. You appear to be only allowing public traffic to wg. It should be noted that this setup will likely fail at some point because you are hard coding the IP. It should fail safe, but the public internet will not work.

dragonfly4933,

No, you should keep both udp and tcp port 53 open going out. blocking dns vc/tcp will result in dns being partially broken.

dragonfly4933,

DNS vc is used for any dns request, not just zone transfers. UDP can sometimes fail in some situations, in which case the client will fall back to TCP which will keep it working.

Ubisoft Can Delete Inactive Accounts, Making Users Lose Access to Their Games (gamerant.com)

In a response to a post from the AntiDRM Twitter account, Ubisoft Support has clarified that users who don’t sign in to their account can potentially lose access to Ubisoft games they’ve purchased. The initial post from AntiDRM featured a snippet of an e-mail sent to a user from Ubisoft notifying them that their account had...

Risks of using selfhosted wireguard vpn (hetzner) for p2p

Hi, In short: will I run the risk of receiving an angry Hetzner e-mail telling me to stop downloading torrents when I configer my local deluge client to connect through a local gluetun VPN client to a selfhosted wireguard vpn on a hetzner server? I have limited knowledge of VPNs but as far as I understand it the connection...

dragonfly4933,

It can and will work, but it will not be optimal. You will be able to connect to other peers, but other peers will not be able to connect to you. This usually isn’t a big deal, but it’s not great in situations where there are not many peers, and you need every connection you can get.

dragonfly4933,

It’s basically how widevine works. The hardware “secure” boots the OS, and the OS only loads signed code. And there is a chain of custody all the way to the hardware, so the software that communicates with the server can attest that it is the same as what they expect.

The simple explanation is that they wish to further erode property ownership by the proletariat by locking down operating systems such that they can’t do as their owners wish, but only what the corporation wants.

dragonfly4933,

Maybe, but in practice nothing happens. Microsoft has had numerous issues reported to them before, years ago, and the issue reported to them was never fixed or taken seriously. Then years later, the issue is sometimes rediscovered and they find the report from years earlier, and nothing happens.

Until legislation gets passed to force companies to take liability of their software, nothing will change.

dragonfly4933,

Tbh, you might just consider using btrfs instead. Using pirated software to run a nas doesn’t seem like a great idea when btrfs is so easy to use for making flexible storage arrays.

dragonfly4933,

I know btrfs alone doesn’t replace unraid on its own, but it does replace or at least substitutes most of the raid functionality. Btrfs is extremely flexible and it’s raid features are almost unmatched in capability for running in small environments where you may need to increase or decrease the number disks in an array at will and without much limitation.

If you want a gui to manage various linux systems, you could look into cockpit. It can manage VMs, containers and other linux systems via a unified gui. I would recommend fedora if you want to give it a go.

But you do you. I have not really had the desire to use unraid since i already know linux and manage the system myself without many tools, but i understand most people do not know linux that well and learning is a significant time sink.

dragonfly4933,

Insurance doesn’t work very well for things like hurricanes. When big events happen that cause large percentages of their policy holders to file claims at the same time, it results in large payouts which causes increases in price. When prices go up, people don’t insure. This combined with the fact that florida gets hurricanes means prices for insurance are high.

Maybe the state could help by introducing laws to help combat insurance fraud, but that could lead to consumers getting fucked by their insurance companies.

dragonfly4933,

Probably. But wear and tear on all road infrastructure will accelerate due to more weight, and funds to fix it will go down until additional tax structures are put into place to replace gas taxes.

dragonfly4933,

I more or less was just looking for a general survey of what other people used.

I agree installing a binary for this small kind of thing might be excessive.

dragonfly4933,

Wouldn’t advise turning off ipv6. We are probably getting near the point where some public services will disable or offer v4 as only best effort, and when this happens, your connectivity will be broken for certain things if you disable v6. Heck, it’s to the point now where all my home hosted services are v6 only.

The better solution is to just get a VPN that supports ipv6 like airvpn or mullvad. I think pia disables ipv6 while the tunnel is up, which is better than disabling ipv6 altogether.

To validate the tunnel is working properly you can use something like this.

ipleak.net

There is also a Torrent Address detection section, that when you activate it, will provide a magnet link that will show your ip to ensure that it is tunneled properly.

dragonfly4933,

If you want to, then sure. For torrenting, it’s not necessary, but may be helpful. I do occasionally see ipv6 peers.

dragonfly4933,

BitTorrent v2 allows this also. In v1, torrents with multiple files are hashed continuously (cat) together without respect to file boundaries. A side effect of this that many people notice is that to grab a specific file may require downloading some of the files before or after the one you want.

Under v2, each file is hashed separately, so this fixes the aforementioned problem and should allow sharing of files across torrent files.

dragonfly4933,

Email isn’t that secure anyway (don’t use email if your life or freedom depends on it), so I don’t see that as much as a downside.

dragonfly4933,

Google and other search engines can crawl lemmy just fine. The only downside is that the information will be split across domains unless google puts in a special case for lemmy/fediverse or something.

dragonfly4933,

You can use this: ipfs.io/…/QmbpRxBZ5HDZDVRoeAU8xFYnoP4r5eGCxdkmfFW…

That is a low tech html page that can search the SQLite database someone posted. That page is hosted on IPFS, which you can access through one of the gateways, although I posted a link to the page via one of the gateways.

On that page is a button you can press for more information on how to download it to your local computer to have a speedy local copy.

How I have been using it is: search in the following format: [name] [release year] [quality like 1080p] [encode like x265]

do note that the database is not being updated since RARBG is obviously gone now, but stuff prior and including some of 2023 is all there, most what rarbg released.
