Maayyyyybe because he is?

I mean, if far-left radicals call someone a fascist, that’s debatable. But everyone left of center? Maaaaaybe they’re onto something here?

Did you mean ricing?

You mean 5W?

What do you use as reverse proxy? I have been trying to get a safe reverse proxy going via traefik in --user mode but it’s been rough 😄

but without the command

Yeah, but that’s an easy one to parse, if you really need it.

I’m pretty sure if you use OnCalendar it will still be there after a reboot. Let me check.

If you inspect the generated timer you see the same format in the OnCalendar line.

What do you mean by persisted? The service and timer will both be there as long as the timer doesn’t end. Which it won’t in my example.

If you want to copy it for later reference, you can simply copy the files.

windows, yes: learn.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/systemd

for Mac you should probably use macOS’s launchd services: www.launchd.info

single line

here’s a single line for you which creates a one-shot service+timer in one go, suspending the system in 4 hours:

systemd-run --on-active=4h --unit=poweroff-after-4h /usr/bin/systemctl suspend

If you want it to run repeatedly, simply replace –on-active with –on-calendar=“*-*-* 04:00:00” for example.

But why does it need a cross platform package when systemd is available everywhere? What UX is better than the already existing cockpit?

Yes but… Systemd timers are INI-defined tasks and services with unified history and logs, the alerts can be easily added with any alerting system.

Looks good, but kind of superfluous if you just use systemd timers, lol

Systemd timers are the modern way of doing it which gives you everything you coded this tool for, logs and whatnot, in the journal.

And you can run them in a web UI like cockpit aswell.

This might be interesting in a business setting but lacks ACLs and user management in general.

It’s probably also quite easy to hack the system with it if you can inject some malicious scripts.

What’s the failure mode? Hotter operation?

download the entire netflix library forever.

I’m pretty sure this is larger than 14TB?!

Honestly if you use Claude just tell it to set it up for you.

Not the point of a homelab and additionally very dangerous as Claude tends to like insecure configurations.

If you use TLS like you should, your domains will be on the internet in the certificate transparency log. You should use a wildcard cert if you want this security by obscurity.

The whole client is open source, but idk if you can simply call the API with a token for a linked device or something. Pretty sure Signal doesn’t want “chatbots” on their networks and it might be against ToS.

Would love this to work with Signal and Matrix!

Nice try Mr Hacker, you’re not getting anything out of this BOFH 🙃

I have a wiki! Covers way more diverse topics than self-hosting though. wiki.tilde.fun

Using Ansible, but it still means I need to run it and schedule patches etc. – you can’t just patch stuff when people are currently working on it.

You can use configuration management software like Ansible or Puppet. I wouldn’t write my own scripts when there are good Ansible modules.

You quoted something directly contradicting what you said. Nothing is concealed, every line of erroneous code could have been analysed for 15 years. All information needed to find the bug was public since it the code has been written and checked in publicly.

You confused “obscurity” as in a synonym for low popularity with the word “obscurity” as in people not knowing how it works and people deliberately hiding the inner workings of a system.

Everyone using Linux can know how it works, that’s the opposite of obscurity in the sense it is used within “security by obscurity”.

Apart from that, Linux is very popular, just not on the Desktop. It is therefore not obscure in the sense of popularity either, at least the components which are hit by the bug mentioned in the article.

ugh shit next week will be awful at work patching all those servers. At least they found it because bad actors did.

What benefit does that give you for media viewing?

What exactly about X.509 is trash for that use case?

Sadly couldn’t find anything. Thing is, if you watch your own media, why use TOR?!

I always wonder if veterans really need to know that much information at all times.

Actually I suffer from something called “monitoring fatigue” or “notification fatigue” at work. There’s so many monitoring notifications, half of which are nothingburgers, that I seriously hate that part of my job is responding to them.

I already disabled notifications for my email in our monitoring system and now there’s just another department monitoring the monitoring system and creating tickets for me.

Sounds interesting.

Can you link those projects please?

Usually these tools are very basic.

If you read this community in the last weeks you’d know that slopcoders don’t stop at basic projects.

For Android there’s PhotoSwooper which works somewhat similar @uuj8za@piefed.social
