- Comment on A letter to the CalyxOS community 3 days ago:
So they’re conducting security audits in line with best practices post executive terminations, and, as a result, security updates are being delayed up to 6 months. They’re also recommending alternatives for the time being for those who may be targeted (example being human rights activists). Considering the reasoning, I can’t hold this against them. Also considering many are still rocking android 10 or iOS 15, this update pause (hopefully just a pause) isn’t the worst thing in the world.

- Comment on Age Verification Is Coming for the Whole Internet 1 week ago:
Yeah, it’s all relative. It’s like the www before corporate takeover. Like the old www, you need to have some sense on where to go and where to avoid.

Oh my goodness! That is the best story! My heart is full of joy! <3 Whoever thinks dogs are just animals, has never spent true quality time with one. They’re so special and loving and emotionally complex.

Furiosa is amazing and lucky to have you! I had to cook food for my dog for a while, too, because he was neglected and abused before I got him. He was underweight and suffering from severe malnutrition, which caused him to violently reject any commercial food. About a year later, he’s at a good weight, and is able to comfortably consume the higher quality commercial foods (the grain free ones), but still has trouble with the more economical foods (and likely always will). His name is Phoenix. He is a red Alaskan Husky, and, like the mythical phoenix bird, he has emerged from the ashes of his past abuser as renewed and full of life.

UNC2891 also used Linux bind mounts to hide its backdoor processes, which, at the time, had not been documented in public threat reports, Group-IB said.
The technique is now recognized by MITRE’s ATT&CK framework as T1564.013.
Holy crap. They discovered, and successfully implemented a novel technique. That’s impressive af

- Comment on Microsoft admits it would have to let Trump spy on EU data if demanded 2 weeks ago:
While true, in the past, MS has shown us they don’t care about national laws. I’m not saying they don’t e2ee, I’m saying they might not be following this particular national law due to their own national laws. I don’t know.
- Comment on Microsoft admits it would have to let Trump spy on EU data if demanded 2 weeks ago:
It’s encrypted, I’m sure. But I highly doubt it’s e2ee. It’s likely as the eula alludes to (end to server to end). So… accessible by MS.

I mean. They’re a USA company. Of course they would be required to follow the laws of the country in which they HQ. Did anyone think anything different?

- Comment on How to Setup a Secure Ubuntu Home Server 2 weeks ago:
Right, but if I don’t care for gui and am good with cli, would this guide still be followable? That’s kind of what I was trying to ask, I guess.
- Comment on How to Setup a Secure Ubuntu Home Server 2 weeks ago:
Don’t sell yourself short. This guide had the very real potential to be invaluable to someone just starting out! It’s a great guide! Just needs a little more of the “why” factor, is all : ) keep it up!
- Comment on How to Setup a Secure Ubuntu Home Server 2 weeks ago:
True, but OP’s guide is for Ubuntu, so newcomers will be lost with Fedora following this guide, since they are vastly different.
- Comment on How to Setup a Secure Ubuntu Home Server 2 weeks ago:
That’s what I was thinking, but I wasn’t sure. I figured I’d ask op, since the post seems to be theirs.
As I’m writing this, I’m thinking maybe it’s because Server is generally cli-first, and this post is geared towards a more noob audience, so they’re going gui-first? If so, I appreciate the forethought.
