Someone is rewriting Emacs in Rust. :o
I've written a couple of lines about last week's WhatsApp drama.
Nothing too technical, it's just my view about the event - and I'm trying to elevate my English level!
I'm trying to write more but it's hard!
Freebsd didn't work out of the box with Intel Iris 5100 - both RELEASE and CURRENT.
Turns out their driver was missing a PCI ID!
I just added mine, patched a known bug which was found in Linux i915, rebuilt the kernel and everything works now.
I've had a lot of fun hacking the FreeBSD kernel.
One of the best C I've ever seen, easy to understand and documented enough; plus, the community is very welcoming.
Sadly, I couldn't get the PCI pass-through to work with my wireless NIC 😕
Yay! My "new" Thinkpad will be shipped this Monday!
Can't wait to have something both powerful and compatible with BSDs enough to be used as a daily driver!
*taps mic* is this thing on?
.NET Core?
Wanted to write a quick cli tool to check and convert altcoin prices to/from Bitcoin/USD.
Results: no API provider is kind enough to not apply stupid usage limits, or even provide working documentation.
:(
If you're using Samba under #HardenedBSD with Integriforce rules applied to it, then the shared object injection CVE is fully mitigated for you.
Does #OpenVPN (client) timeout after a certain period of time where it cannot resolve the server address?
Downsides: OpenBSD 6.1's LibreSSL simply refuses to work with my VPN provider's TLS certificates.
I had to statically build LibreSSL 2.4.5 and link it to the latest OpenVPN to make everything work.
Not the ideal solution but at least it's working :-/
About my #openbsd small home server adventure: the server is up and running, currently facing the wide Internet from inside my house, which is great.
I don't have a static IP address, so I have to route everything through a VPN to actually have outside connection.
Thanks to Hurricane Electric DynDNS at least I can have a *.gsora.xyz subdomain which links to the VPN IP.
ddclient updates dynamically the address.
It can even survive a sudden power drop, and can put itself online autonomously.
Ok, AzireVPN is the best VPN provider ever appeared on the internet.
