I hope Canada and Mexico don’t blink in the face of this stupidity.

“Fresh idiot” sounds like a Gordon Ramsay insult.

If the SC approves this illegal EO, there will be a 99% chance of Civil War.

I’d put that chance closer to 0%. The people who care enough about the rule of law have too much to lose, and those on the side of the fascists either have nothing to lose or are too infirm to fight.

America will die with a whimper, not a bang. Smart people will move to other countries, high-skill immigrants will stop immigrating, and the economy will eventually collapse.

Good reminder to cancel my Prime membership. My New Year’s resolution was to not purchase anything from Amazon, and so far I’m nailing it.

I followed this guide and have had zero issues. I had to do it this way because Opnsense didn’t natively support my 10g NIC. I have Proxmox handle the hardware side of things and pass through a virtualized card to Opnsense (albeit with slightly reduced performance).

I hope he gets exactly what he voted for.

Yikes. I was just about to shell out for Proton VPN, but now I won’t.

As a Washingtonian, I’m so fucking sold.

And yet they’ll probably vote in line with the wretched people and policies he advocates for.

My hot take: When Trump kicks the bucket, the MAGA movement dies with him. JD Vance sure as hell isn’t going to inspire the faithful the way Trump did. With a lack of political capital, and because he’s so desperate to be liked, Vance would probably have to act more like a “traditional” Republican, if that even means anything anymore.

 

This Topton-brand mini-ITX motherboard on AliExpress seems like a pretty decent choice for an Opnsense/Pfsense-based home router setup. It has four Intel 2.5gbe ports, an integrated 10W TDP CPU, and way more storage options than necessary for my use case.

However, I’m leery of just about everything from AliExpress. In this case, I assume security is probably a distant consideration after function and price point.

Am I being overly paranoid? Are products like this riddled with back doors and other exploitable components? Has anyone else out there built a router using this board?

 

Is it a bad idea to recursively change the permissions for the /var/lib/docker directory? That directory is owned by root:root and the permissions are rwx--x---.

I'm hoping to be able to access my named volumes without using sudo so that I can easily back them up.
