- Comment on ‘Sinkclose’ Flaw in Hundreds of Millions of AMD Chips Allows Deep, Virtually Unfixable Infections 2 months ago:
The folks who found it are presenting at Defcon this weekend, according to the article.
I imagine some of the industry press (i.e. Wired) are just looking through the Defcon agenda to figure out what to write. I saw two or three other articles about hacks or exploits and things like that that also mentioned it was bring presented at Defcon.
- Comment on Basic Security for your Website | Loudwhisper 2 months ago:
Unrelated to your actual post (plan to read later), but is your RSS busted? The rss link on the webpage gives a 404 and my RSS reader is erroring on it as well…
- Comment on Can you have local reverse proxies? 3 months ago:
Ive got this working with Caddy and Adguaed
I use Caddy as my reverse proxy. It is running on the machine in the basement with all the different docker-container-services on different ports. My registrar is set up so that *.my-domain.com goes to my IP.
Caddy is then configured for ‘service-a.my-domain.com’ to port 1234, and the others going to their ports. This is just completely standard reverse proxy.
For some subdomains (i.e. different services) ive whitelisted only the local network. There is some config for that.
Im pretty sure that I also have to have adguard do a dns rewrite on the local network as well. That is, adguard has a rewrite for ‘*.my-domain.com’ to go to 192.168.0.22 (the local machine with caddy). I think i had to do this to ensure that when the request gets to caddy it is coming from the local whitelisted network rather than my public IP (which changes every couple months, but could be more).
- Comment on I Will Fucking Piledrive You If You Mention AI Again — Ludicity 3 months ago:
Everyone who downvoted me didnt read the article, or didnt read what i said, or didnt read op, or something, i dont remember what they didnt read but they cannot be real because the only way to disagree with me is to not have read something or other (or did read it, cant remember which)
- Comment on I Will Fucking Piledrive You If You Mention AI Again — Ludicity 3 months ago:
I read the fun blogpost that is not an academic paper and ive downvoted you. Does that mean i dont actually exist or that u dont actually exist???
- Comment on Two students find security bug that could let millions do laundry for free 4 months ago:
Im very amused at it being in word rather than .xlsx or .txt, like them going out if their way to make it worse because word is all they know.
- Comment on Thinking of building a database of "stuff" that I have at home + some other family households. Multiple accounts with private and shared inventories. 5 months ago:
Ive started using homebox and i like it. Granted, i only use it for myself right now, not sure how it works for multiple people and public vs private repos
- Comment on Should Caddy and Traefik Replace Certbot? 6 months ago:
I started out using certbot, but once i needed a reverse proxy i found caddy. I was confused at first at how to set up the certificates for caddy, but it told me it would just work and my sites have the https and the little lock, so i guess it is just magic!
Have found caddy to be generally easy. I think first starting with it took a bit more to figure out, but it does work well

Pretty well lit for a shadowy place.
But holy shit those ergonomics. The desk is at their shoulders…
- Comment on Inside tech billionaires’ push to reshape San Francisco politics: ‘a hostile takeover’ 7 months ago:
I think the idea/joke is that the police are effectively privatized by being privately funded and carring out the rules of their funders.

Yes

If im drunk in someone elses tesla and i shit myself, im leaving the drawers in the car. Im not walking around in that.
- Comment on Codeberg.org Opinions? 8 months ago:
I selfhost a forgejo instance, which is the underlying framework for codeberg (and they maintain forgejo).
Federation is in the works, they say.
If i was going to have any projects public, this is where i would do it.

What incredibly obvious thing am i missing that i cant add my freshrss account? It is all just greyed out…
- Comment on The New Luddites Aren’t Backing Down 8 months ago:
Would be a bit more like “i consider myself a Christian, not because i follow the mainstream conception of Christianity but because i read what Jesus himself said and agree with it.”
- Comment on Google Search is losing its 'cached' web page feature 8 months ago:
At least some of these tools change their “user agent” to be whatever google’s crawler is.
When you browse in, say, Firefox, one of the headers that firefox sends to the website is “I am using Firefox” which might affect how the website should display to you or let the admin knkw they need firefox compatibility (or be used to fingerprint you…).
You can just lie on that, though. Some privacy tools will change it to Chrome, since that’s the most common.
Or, you say “i am the google web crawler”, which they let past the paywall so it can be added to google.

- Comment on Amazon reportedly used a secret algorithm to jack up prices — A new report details Amazon’s Project Nessie pricing algorithm 1 year ago:
The article doesnt talk about changing prices based on demand, it is about changing prices based on competitors’ prices.
And yea, if Target increased their prices when Amazon increased, then they would just all be higher. Then they could do it another round and another round until one of the companies decided they were at the limit.
If the two companies talked to each other about this, it would be illegal collusion. But instead they have code automate it without an explicit conversation, which may not be illegal but certainly makes our lives worse.
- Comment on Do any of you use Raspberry Pi’s ? 1 year ago:
Maybe it isnt as bad as i remember, or maybe i tried doing HA Core on the debian server or something… maybe it got better or maybe im a fool? (I definitely am a fool).
I guess it just as much came down to that I already had the pi, so just running it on that like i had for a year was less hassle than starting it via docker on the other machine?
- Comment on Do any of you use Raspberry Pi’s ? 1 year ago:
RP4 running Home Assistant. Running HA in a docker container is harder than running it as the OS on a Pi4. Running HA is how I get into this, i kept trying to put more crap into HA as addons before realizing i should set up a proper server.
I assembled a handful of temp/humidity sensors (that are actually running on Wemos D1 minis).
- Comment on Harness launches Gitness, an open-source GitHub competitor 1 year ago:
well, shit, it looks like that is indeed what I want! setting it up now, thanks!
- Comment on Harness launches Gitness, an open-source GitHub competitor 1 year ago:
i’m not finding a way to prevent creating users right now… i’m just able to register new users again and again on the docker run. maybe i’m just missing the config (the documentation is looking like it needs to be fleshed out).
not really trying to anyone with the url make an account on my basement computer…
- Comment on Harness launches Gitness, an open-source GitHub competitor 1 year ago:
Gitlab takes way more RAM to run the docker container than i want. If this is lighter, that sounds nice. And im using only the most basic functionality, so wont be much loss to me if it cant do whatever fancy stuff.
- Comment on Harness launches Gitness, an open-source GitHub competitor 1 year ago:
Im amused that the repo for it is on github and not on, well, Gitness
- Comment on Skip server registration for selfhosted Rocketchat? 1 year ago:
I started toying with mattermost as well and then saw in the logs things going to “matteranalytics” or something like that… Shouldn’t be too surprised, but seemed ironic since I looked it up to avoid the similar thing with rocket
- Comment on Skip server registration for selfhosted Rocketchat? 1 year ago:
I’ve set up a test server for matrix as well, wanted to compare to rocket since I see it mentioned a lot.
When I told a friend (the one I’d need on board to get the group of friends to use it) he said “does it have the gifs?” Matrix has a years-long enhancement request for native giphy support which is yet resolved. I dabbled with a giphy plugin with matrix and it worked alright, but I dunno if it was good enough to win my friends over.
