I get what you’re saying in general, but I’m not sure why Bush Sr gets put in the same category. Sure there was a recession and scandal or two, but these were pretty minor overall, and it was followed soon after by one of the most successful economic periods in US history, it’s hard to argue his presidency was a disaster, and in the same context as Bush Jr and Trump

Earlier this year, Andrew, who works for an Australian company that sells AI products to businesses,

Funny how every time this happens its someone trying to sell AI. The coincidence is a bit too much to take this seriously as oops I just wanted to book a gym class

When is Anubis useful (eg vs CloudFlare)? The GitHub page doesn’t say much-

In most cases, you should not need this and can probably get by using Cloudflare to protect a given origin. However, for circumstances where you can’t or won’t use Cloudflare, Anubis is there for you.

Blackmailers more likely

Definitely

If eBay, Amazon and Facebook are all cesspits, where can you buy stuff online in a decent way? Search small shops individually?

There’s other camera apps which remove the awful filters that automatically get applied and give more manual control, for example open camera or camera on fdroid

Sure but every tree you plant takes up space and there is a limit how much you can do this. Unless you then farm them and store th carbon long term somehow

Well I think she amount of caution is still appropriate no matter how much you manage to secure the local machine

Yes that sounds like pull backups, which is worth exploring

That’s an interesting idea

Yep offline backups are useful, although it does require remembering & making the effort to do it each time

Certainly sounds relevant, although overall it is quite a different approach than in currently using

For doing snapshots did that means the local system identifies the changes? Or it all gets copied each time?

Yes that seems like one way to go. Although I am using rsync so maybe keeping the files in place and changing owner could be an option

That’s some good suggestions and a few things I hadn’t considered. A VPN is also possible, although setting up the port forwarding might be a bit more complicated

It’s for a home network, I managed to get it working using port forwarding through SSH thanks to suggestions. I’m not sure what the difference is with using the pi as an entry/exit node, that is what I was trying to do with the SSH forwarding. VPN is also possible but it it would also need to be set up to go through the pi

That worked thanks, I didn’t know you could put an address like that in the -L command, and the -N is correct here too

Ok there is a TV and a pi on network 1 and a server on network 2, the pi can connect to the server through SSH or VPN or whatever is needed. The TV would like to connect to the server, however it can’t run a VPN or anything like that so exposing the server would be a risk.

The SSH command on the pi is SSH -L 1234:localhost1234 remote_server

The ufw command was run on the pi, with the intention to allow the TV to access the forwarded port on the pi

Well one of the minor advantages of low voter turnouts is if people are disappointed by their “team” then they don’t bother voting, which can change the result, especially when the other side is livid and highly motivated to get out to vote
