- Comment on CVE Board members launch the CVE Foundation, a dedicated, non-profit to continue identifying vulnerabilities, after the US ended its contract with Mitre 3 days ago:
I’m inclined to believe it’s US based since the press release says Bremerton, WA.
- Comment on The Fairphone 5 price has been dropped to €499. The phone is designed to be the most advanced environmentally friendly smartphone. 4 days ago:
Seedvault worked fine for me when I moved phones last year.

- Comment on Nicole has taken a dark turn 1 week ago:
We don’t know if it’s actually her in the image. While the likeness is similar, it’s not 1:1 and the injuries make it even harder to tell.
Police, sure, but it probably needs to come from instance admins who will have all of the information on the bots sending the image.

This incel is still here, huh? None of the safe spaces we mentioned when you asked good enough for you?
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
hmm, I wonder why you can’t post there… /s
- Comment on Fresh from the bakery 1 week ago:
literal shitpost
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
This coming from the incel who constantly posts misogynist questions and comments? Definitely not serious. Want proof? Look at their post history and/or modlog. They exist to post misogynistic rage bait.
- Comment on Would there be any potential problem of hosting public and/or private (vpn) services in a school office? 2 weeks ago:
It’s definitely not legal, especially if your school is funded by the public. That “free internet and power” is paid by someone, and if it’s the public, it’s kind of a dick move.
They can’t see what’s in your ssh or VPN tunnels necessarily, but they can usually see where the packets are originating from and going to. So if you’re say, accessing it from home directly to the server via VPN or SSH, if you’re not doing so using a full VPN service like Mull, they’ll be able to see the origin IP of your SSH or VPN handshakes, and thus your home IP.
- Comment on Trump plans to announce a company called TikTok America, with a 50% stake for US investors and 19.9% for ByteDance, which would license the algorithm. 2 weeks ago:
Surely US investors won’t harvest data and/or enshittify the product!
- Comment on WordPress maker Automattic lays off 16% of staff. 2 weeks ago:
Should have just fired the CEO instead, would’ve saved millions and the company in one go.
Just last week, they were posting job listings for DevOps engineers. Glad the CEO’s bullshit stopped me from even considering it.
- Comment on Everyone knows all the apps on your phone - by peabee 2 weeks ago:
Sure, but I didn’t mean to say that FOSS couldn’t be insecure. Software itself can obviously be insecure, like we saw with xz. At least with FOSS though, it’s more difficult for it to be hidden.
- Comment on Everyone knows all the apps on your phone - by peabee 2 weeks ago:
Apologies, I deleted my comment instead of editing it, but I meant to add that even with the shady workaround, if you have sandboxing it likely greatly reduces this risk.
Be very wary of what apps you install, and in fact, try to only use FOSS.
- Comment on Everyone knows all the apps on your phone - by peabee 2 weeks ago:
Yes, it would. Those basically create sandboxes.
- Comment on A warning and an experience with termites 2 weeks ago:
Thanks. I actually have advance bait stations, however it should be noted that this won’t really work for active infestations because they already have food from your home.
- Comment on Is there a non leftist version of this website? 2 weeks ago:
Thanks for proving my point!
- Comment on Is there a non leftist version of this website? 2 weeks ago:
No assumptions here, in a now removed thread they literally told me that women being oppressed was “natural selection”, no joke. Look at their mod log if you want to double check, it’s rough. They definitely could be rage baiting, but the fact that they posted this after getting absolutely dumped on definitely looks like they’re looking for a safe space.
- Comment on Is there a non leftist version of this website? 2 weeks ago:
leftism is when women have rights, according to OP
- Comment on Is there a non leftist version of this website? 2 weeks ago:
you were the incel making misogynistic posts earlier, right? do you define people as leftists when they acknowledge that women are their own human beings that have been oppressed by men for millennia? if so, you’d fit right in over at truth social, where even women hate other women (they even hate your mom for existing!)
- Comment on I need help guys 2 weeks ago:
I’ve had luck at non-chain thrift stores
- Comment on How to protect against someone forcefully unlocking my phone and password manager with biometrics? 4 weeks ago:
Under Fingerprint Unlock -> Second Factor Pin
- Comment on How to protect against someone forcefully unlocking my phone and password manager with biometrics? 4 weeks ago:
Graphene can do both at the same time: fingerprint+password/pin as the second factor. This won’t stop someone from holding you at gunpoint, but at least it would stop cops (in some cases)
- Comment on A warning and an experience with termites 4 weeks ago:
Interesting, even the commercial grade ones die that fast?
- Comment on A warning and an experience with termites 4 weeks ago:
Yeah, it has a built in pump, so currently I’m pumping it outside into our french drain. I highly recommend dehumidifiers with pumps so you can drain the water anywhere.
- Comment on A warning and an experience with termites 4 weeks ago:
That’s another thing I’m definitely paranoid about, and it kind of does come with similar paranoia. Come to think of it, there’s moss growing on part of our roof… really should get that cleaned up.
- Comment on A warning and an experience with termites 4 weeks ago:
Sorta, that’s how the foam kinda works - you drill small holes in the drywall and then inject the foam into the void. The foam expands about 30:1 to cover much of the bottom part of the void.
- Comment on A warning and an experience with termites 4 weeks ago:
Absolutely, this is good advice. I forgot to add that I bought one of those giant commercial dehumidifiers once discovered. Since it’s so oversized it keeps much of the house pretty dry.

Ah, yeah, OpenBSD would do it. You’d basically be limited to running it in a VM which would have severe overhead. For Linux based stuff, though, it has minimal overhead.
- Comment on Need tips for moving forward 4 weeks ago:
Interesting, what OS are you running? I’ve never ran into one that it doesn’t work on so that’s surprising.
I would counter that disadvantage with this: due to testing constraints, docker containers are usually updated more quickly when there’s a 0 day, and you don’t have to patch your entire OS if one single container has one. It reduces operator overhead greatly, because that’s what it’s designed to do. Even if one of your containers has a vulnerability, because it’s a container, it won’t necessarily affect your entire system, depending on the vulnerability.
