”Strabismus (crossed eyes) is a common eye condition among children. It is when the eyes are not lined up properly and they point in different directions (misaligned). One eye may look straight ahead while the other eye turns in, out, up, or down."

The search term to find it is autologon, but as everyone has mentioned, this is a last resort and JF should just be run as a service.

courts of law.

There are always courts of law! Just somtimes it’s the king in his court making up the law…

Long live the Blackspire Guard

Minimum open services is indeed best practice but be careful about making statements that the attack surface is relegated to open inbound ports.

Even Enterprise gear gets hit every now and then with a vulnerability that’s able to bypass closed port blocking from the outside. Cisco had some nasty ones where you could DDOS a firewall to the point the rules engine would let things through. It’s rare but things like that do happen.

You can also have vulnerabilities with clients/services inside your network. Somebody gets someone in your family to click on something or someone slips a mickey inside one of your container updates, all of a sudden you have a rat on the inside. Hell even baby monitors are a liability these days.

I wish all the home hardware was better at zero trust. Keeping crap in isolation networks and setting up firewalls between your garden and your clients can either be prudent or overkill depending on your situation. Personally I think it’s best for stuff that touches the web to only be allowed a minimum amount of network access to internal devices. Keep that Plex server isolated from your document store if you can.

If by not linked you mean wholly owned by…

The Mozilla Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation, works with the community to develop software that advances Mozilla’s principles. This includes the Firefox browser, which is well recognized as a market leader in security, privacy and language localization. These features make the Internet safer and more accessible.

I suspect their financial position has changed. Perhaps Google’s being found as a monopoly has made them decide not to help fund Mozilla’s efforts as substantially.

Ashley Boyd lead the advocacy team, here’s the kind of stuff they were doing:

In fall of 2016, Mozilla fought for common-sense copyright reform in the EU, creating public education media that engaged over one million citizens and sending hundreds of rebellious selfies to EU Parliament. Earlier in 2016, Mozilla launched a public education campaign around encryption and emerged as a staunch ally of Apple in the company’s clash with the FBI. Mozilla has also fought for mass surveillance reform, net neutrality and data retention reform.

“The Mozilla Foundation is reorganizing teams to increase agility and impact as we accelerate our work to ensure a more open and equitable technical future for us all. That unfortunately means ending some of the work we have historically pursued and eliminating associated roles to bring more focus going forward,” read the statement shared with TechCrunch.

Reading between the lines, I’d keep an eye on them collecting your data and consider one of the privacy-focused forks.

Probably preferential licensing. Black Mirror is still an active development with them.

Yeah, a company got toasted because one of their admins was running Plex and had tautulli installed and opened to the outside figuring it was read-only and safe.

Zero day bug in tat exposed his Plex token. They then used another vulnerability in Plex to remote code execute. He was self-hosting a GitHub copy of all the company’s code.

Home assistant Web app would be fine.

Yeah, you still need the CPU to move all the data to the video card and to and from the memory. The stuff I play doesn’t mind 30 frames per second, I’m not really much of a stickler for high settings. But even the shitty unity games are starting to struggle

China certainly could be lying.

Half of the US states are purposely bankrupting their education systems to make sure that the 1 percenters are the only ones with any advantage. Even in the States that aren’t actively trying to stamp out education the poor and middle class can’t afford a respectable education.

China is sitting on a pile of natural resources and doesn’t have any problems with underpaying and working people to death.

They’re set up to do a lot with very little, they have a lot of people and resources and they’re not afraid to educate enough people to get the job done.

It’s not just space, they’re getting places with electric cars that we can’t touch.

It’ll be interesting to see where all this ends up.

He wants in on the new authoritarian regime. Slowing down or stopping electric cars is on their to do list.

I keep a root folder. On Windows it’s in c:\something on Linux it’s in /something

Under there I’ve got projects organized by language. This helps me organize nix shells and venvs.

Syncthing keeps the code bases and synced between multiple computers

I don’t separate work from home because they don’t live in the same realm.

Only home stuff in the syncthing.

Searx is fancy about it though, It queries everybody and gives you the results that came back from multiple places. This effectively eliminates ads, AI, and unless they all missed it, spam.

Using duck duck go is pretty good for me, if I go to bing.com, My results are horrible. Of course it’s the same result set, but I expect I’m getting less algorithmic shuffling on DuckDuckGo.

Oh give us a couple of decades to screw up the environment enough we can’t grow outside.

Unless he thinks he’s going to serve all that from the die in the next 5 years.

Running Ubuntu on my 2015 air I struggle to get 2 hours out of it. I was able to get TLP to bring it close to 4, But it was at the cost of being borderline unusable.

I just wish they’d take a strong stance on blocking propaganda in the US too.

Wonder how many services would have to pull out of Russia before Russia started pushing back on their government.
