I’m partial to Pokemon say.

The biggest issue is being in aware of migrations for load balancing. If VM 1 is deployed to Node 1 with Terraform, then is moved to Node 2 at some point for load balancing, Terraform tries to recreate it on Node 1.

Also, I have a slight moral objection to one of the top providers being developed by a for-profit prison company.

Well, now they’re down to ~18k if rumors are correct.

Probably Debian or Ubuntu LTS?

As someone who moved to Proxmox for my 3-node homelab, good luck.

I find the automation for deploying VMs to be woefully incapable compared to Terraform/PowerCLI on the VMware side. Not to mention things like load balancing/DRS are flat out missing.

I managed to get it stable enough for homelab-y things like *arr, plex, DNS, etc - but at this point I would quit rather than use it in a production environment. Or maybe I would just look at bare metal kubernetes instead.

Nobody showed up because there wasn’t a remotely organized attempt to get people to travel across the country to show up. January 6th was planned (or at least in the rough outline stages in November 2020 when Facebook removed the Stop The Steal group.

The Miami case was solidified on June 9th with formal charges and the arraignment followed 4 days later.

I won’t disagree that if he goes to jail he’ll further fall from the spotlight, but that’s an awful big if given timelines and our justice system.

Oh nice! Followed.

If only it was a Mastodon account. It could sit alongside the @realGulDukat@mastodon.social and banter.

So first, let me be clear - I don’t know if an alternative to that software you first brought up. But some of our earlier CTFs had a similar issue with isolation.

We ended up spinning up new VLANs per contestant, each having a single Kali Linux VM with xrdp, along with each contestants target systems. Our router/fw blocked all access in/out of those VLANs, save for RDP/SSH traffic from our Apache Guacamole server on the DMZ.

So contestants would hit our portal (Guacamole), then from there connect into their own dedicated Kali instance and environment.

Later, we had to make additional fw exemptions for our scoreboard/docs, etc.

I throw CTFs for a living (among other things), and I’m happy to help out a fellow Infosec person.

What kind of infrastructure can you deploy? Is this going to be in the cloud, on-prem (via a hypervisor like Proxmox/vSphere, or hosted on a single laptop/server?

Well, here’s , she just celebrated her one year gotcha anniversary.

Her bro passed away earlier this year, but he will always be my pup.

I put grapheneos on my old Pixel 6 as a “Yolo” phone for a Infosec conference this past year.

It’s very… okay for apps. You effectively have two options, install a third party app store (F-Droid), or setup a new profile with Google services enabled and use Play store over on that.

GApps alternatives are mixed quality - nothing really beats Maps (at least in the US), but other things like Chrome are easily replaced with DuckDuckGo browser or Firefox.

It was an interesting experiment to see if I could go Google apps free, and it worked okay for 4 days, but going full time to it would be rough.

They probably meant to say tune out.

But! But! The whole, “We stand with Israel” - surely you’re not suggesting that’s …performative?!?

To a certain extent you can do that with multi-account containers.

For instance, I can have Amazon always open in my “Shopping” tab to keep it separate from my “Social Networks” tab.

To add to this, technically Trump could still be elected president even without Colorado, but he would have to flip another state or multiple states to get to the 270 electoral votes.

Keep in mind Colorado went for Biden by a margin of 13% last time - it trends blue-ish/purple, so if Trump becomes the nominee, his path to 270 would probably not count on Colorado.

What this might do is deaden down ballet GOP candidates. The GOP wouldn’t put up a replacement presidential candidate for just Colorado, so it would be write in only and that could mean less GOP straight ticket voters, impacting House and state elections.

One last thought - even if Trump loses this bid to remain on the ballot, I sincerely doubt it would impact his chances of being the party’s nominee.

Adding to this - I have those adapters to, ans fyi they don’t support jumbo frames.

I’ve switched over to using a publicly resolvable domain name, but with a lan prefix (e.g. lan.mystuff.dev) so that I can do DNS challenge let’s encrypt certs.

Paired with PowerDNS that acts as an authority for the lan.mystuff.dev domain, I can go to a legit certificate/SSL protected https://sonarr.lan.mystuff.dev url. If I wanted to, I could add cloudflare records for the same services exposed through my router (Like for vpn.lan.mystuff.dev) so that both internal and external resolution is possible.

I would be happy with just one loss that actually sticks.

I feel like all I read is, “Trump is really in trouble this time!” - but all I actually hear is Waylon Jennings saying, “Boy that Donald sure is in a heap ah trouble.”

Well, I’m slight embarrassed. I think that was part of my confusion about Matrix - it seemed to me that it was both a protocol and a platform. That colored my memory of XMPP too. IIRC, Jabber was the client and protocol before the protocol was renamed to XMPP.

As for what I’m interested in - I’m not sure. I don’t really use discord save for a few Patreon follows; my friends use a group Signal chat. I think maybe I’m interested in recapturing the old IRC feeling of finding a chat room and just “hanging out”? I suppose I could always dig out my Irssi client config and just join Freenode again.

(Ye gods, wtf happened here to Freenode/Librachat?)
