That’s true, and you can make Windows XP look like '98, but is it really what retro enthusiasts would want?

I remember I made a thread asking for advice running an older version of Linux for funsies and to experience it and unironically someone said something along those lines to me, like “uhm Linux isn’t windows you can use modern packages and new distros support older hardware” like ughh

I use macvtaps in my homelab for vulnerable VMs because no matter how I set up the bridges or what guide I followed it just broke networking every time on a headless server that’s a massive pain to fix.

Wish I knew about macvtaps from the get-go, it was a dead giveaway that bridges are some demonic shit on Linux as every guide was different, and for every guide there was always some people on Reddit saying how it didn’t work for them at all.

I haven’t found myself missing hard-corpo software in a while but in that moment I really wished I was just using VMware on windows where creating a bridge interface takes one click instead of janky virsh syntax and messing with ifconfig etc.

Definitely not how it works for me and I’ve never used key Auth.

Dunno why my comment was removed but I remarked that it’s either fed to them as scraps or it’s in use by scammers and bots.

I much prefer using a native phone app. Websites and web apps moreso were a mistake.

Idk why my comment was removed. I just said most internet traffic is chinese bots which are not sentient so they’re okay with using IPv6 instead of IPv4 like people do.

IPv4 exhaustion is ofc a problem. But IPv6 discarding NAT is like throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

Hmm, how about we have public facing IPv6 to gateway and then NAT to IPv4 internally. I wouldn’t have a problem with it then. In general I wouldn’t even have a problem with IPv6 or v8 or whatever even internally as long as we’ll always have NAT.

browsing Lemmy through browser on mobile

🤮

Works for me in Jerboa. Why?

I’d also like to know, is there a way to just turn off this ipv6 trashfire? Preferably in a universal, cross-distro way?

Seems like the most universal way is: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT=“ipv6.disable=1 quiet splash”

None. Dashy’s authentication was famously literally security theatre even with Keycloak. You could just pause the load in browser and have full access to the config. Because it let you iframe whatever you could now do so with local services to enum. Somehow Jellyfin is unbustable though. So it’s a bit of a crapshoot. Look at past vulnerabilities. Stuff like XSS unless stored you don’t need to worry about, clickjacking, tab nabbing etc. On the other hand anything that’s arbitrary file read, SQLI, RCE, LFI, RFI, SSRF etc. I would look at seriously. E.g. don’t make your 13ft public because it can be used to literally enumerate your entire private network.

Hard agree. I would also like to add that I think a lot of people remember forums a lot better than they were. Federation keeps admins and mods in check, these features act as checks and balances on instances

*Nothing personal ofc db0 you run an awesome instance.

No, I don’t watch YouTube at all.

Yes I host everything public with cloudflare tunnels. Everything more heavy is VPN with DDNS on invite basis to friends and fam. For the former it’s Hassle-free HTTPS, no reverse proxy, no firewall, no nonsense.

I don’t enjoy them, I think they’re time vampires dragging society into oblivion. I’m glad to deprive any and all content farms of income and that’s why I do it.

Great article! What a ride and a deep-dive. Thanks for falling down this rabbit hole so I don’t have to. Bit annoying with the robot text though makes using reading mode annoying.

It’s such a culture shock in this comment section but FOSS MalDev is absolutely not as uncommon as you might think. A nice trip down to VxUnderground rabbit hole compiling and deplying some samples is tons of fun for an afternoon for any casual ghidra enjoyer.
