    Linux from scratch is quite a lot of fun, did it a decade ago and learned how to bootstrap a linux system after installing Archlinux got boring. Never went past the initial "get a …

    Ah you've never encountered /dev/null not existing yet, so when you try to trash data it will actually create a normal file there so every other program that uses it will actually …

    This does happen, but it seems to depend on the ISP. In the Netherlands I've seen ISPs block the internet connectivity when they've detected infected devices, sometimes they send a…

    I always bring my telephoto lens. Since moving to a full frame camera I'm using a 70-300 most of the time and I rarely want a wider lens, more often I wish I brought my 600mm inste…

    You don't use them normally in the US, I've been referring to europe/amsterdam or europe/paris all my life in Linux installers and various equipment. I've never ever encountered ne…

    Allocating a subnet is way further away from reality for most people than configuring one router feature on the router they're using. There's also a lot of people that configure th…

    That's a lot of software setup for something that can easily be done in hardware. I've been over engineering things for years now. For my mic I have also an sm57 feeding into a dbx…

    Maybe the CVE is being ignored because it's not such a big issue at all? It's already possible to cause a train to brake and make a disruption by pulling any of the emergency break…
