  • Youve minimized login risk, but not any 0 days or newly discovered vulnerabilites in your ssh server software. Its still best to not directly expose any ports you dont need to regularly interact with to the internet.

    Also, Look into crowdsec as a fail2ban replacement. Its uses automatically crowdsourced info to pre block IPs. A bit more proactive compared to abuseipdb manual reporting.




  • It is cat and mouse, but it has an issue maybe every year or so, and they generally resolve it same day or next day with an app update. The hardest part is generating your own google api keys, but there are straightforward guides and you just need to do it once.

    The upside? No ads at all, sponsorblock integration, and an easy 10ft interface that works great with a remote. No shitty web site to navigate with a mouse. Just a list of your videos each day. Click and play.

    I cant speak to your overheating issues. I have kodi running on 4gb raspi 5s with the default case/fan. No problems. An external usb fan might help you out. I’ve used one of these with a raspi in the past. Its roughly the same size as the raspi, but dead silent. Moves insane air.


  • He apprently offered her a 100 million dollars to sign an NDA that would have prevented her from publicly acknowledging he was the kids father. She declined. Insane money, but likely less than she can make with a paternity/child support suit to be honest.

    She is a right wing piece of shit, just to be clear. She would happily murder half of America with no shame, so not exactly a “hero” just because shes clapping back at elon here









  • The lift here is that you setup the end users client. If they aren’t local, buy one and ship it. Since it will be on your always on tailscale vpn, you can then interact with it remotely if needed.

    Android tvs can be had for $35, Raspi 5 are around the same range, with apple tvs about $130. Have people pony up the cash and mail one of what they want out to them.

    That may be too much to ask if you share to a lot of casual friends/family, but its been a successful answer for me.


  • Jellyfin takes more work, but can be a “simple” end user experience if you set it up for them.

    Use a reverse proxy to get a letsenceypt cert for your jellyfin server. SWAG, Caddy, lots of options. Then setup a free tailscale account and add your jellyfin server to your tailnet. Install the jellyfin and tailscale apps on the user android tv/apple tv/computer, then enroll the devices in your tailnet.

    They will have always on, ssl secured, vpn protected media sharing for free.




  • He lost to a liberal canidate named Bruce. Poilievre and Carney ran in ridings in different providences, but the ridings are geographicly right next to each other. Poilievre lost for the first time in 20 years, and Carney was elected as MP for his first time ever.

    Hilariously, someone shouted out “Bruce!” during Carneys acceptance speech. Carney said he was looking forward to working with Bruce. Its being read as shade, since thats a gracious thing you say about an opponent you still have to work with, but in Poilievre case, thats not a problem Carney has.




  • Context for those unaware like myself.

    Conservative New York Times columnist David Brooks is widely seen as a measured figure who frequently calls out anything radical or removed from the center — but that’s decidedly not the tone he struck in his latest article, calling for a “civic uprising” to defend American values against the assault of the Trump administration.

    “Over the centuries, people built the sinews of civilization: Constitutions to restrain power, international alliances to promote peace, legal systems to peacefully settle disputes, scientific institutions to cure disease, news outlets to advance public understanding, charitable organizations to ease suffering, businesses to build wealth and spread prosperity, and universities to preserve, transmit and advance the glories of our way of life,” wrote Brooks. “These institutions make our lives sweet, loving and creative, rather than nasty, brutish and short.”

    The Trump agenda, he continued, stands in opposition to all of that — pursuing only “power for its own sake” as it seeks to “make the earth a playground for ruthless men,” tearing down any institution or cultural values that get in the way of that. This is the mindset with which Trump has forced universities, law firms, and media companies to bend to his will.

    Because of the unprecedented scale of this threat, Brooks wrote, the American people must rise up with a similarly unprecedented dissent to stop it.

    “So far, the only real hint of something larger — a mass countermovement — has been the rallies led by Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. But this … is an ineffective way to respond to Trump; those partisan rallies make this fight seem like a normal contest between Democrats and Republicans,” wrote Brooks. “What is happening now is not normal politics. We’re seeing an assault on the fundamental institutions of our civic life, things we should all swear loyalty to — Democrat, independent or Republican.”

    Specifically, what’s needed is a type of collective nonviolent civil disobedience, wrote Brooks, of the type that drove British colonists out of India or forced passage of the Civil Rights Act.

    “These movements used many different tools at their disposal — lawsuits, mass rallies, strikes, work slowdowns, boycotts and other forms of noncooperation and resistance,” he wrote. “These movements began small and built up. They developed clear messages that appealed to a variety of groups. They shifted the narrative so the authoritarians were no longer on permanent offense. Sometimes they used nonviolent means to provoke the regime into taking violent action, which shocks the nation, undercuts the regime’s authority and further strengthens the movement.”

    “I’m really not a movement guy. I don’t naturally march in demonstrations or attend rallies that I’m not covering as a journalist,” Brooks concluded. “But this is what America needs right now. Trump is shackling the greatest institutions in American life. We have nothing to lose but our chains.”
