I'm here and ready to rock! It's a shame /r/FreeCAD didn't go private. So we need content to start the snowball of people joining Lemmy. Do this on as many communities as you can, even if it's a repost from Reddit.

I'll post some of my creations when I get some time.

I am partial to a LVM storage pool.

If there is nothing particularly distinct about any of your drives, then just lump them together into a volume group and add that as a storage pool to libvirt. Then you can divvy them out in whatever capacities you want.

This is assuming you don't need core access to them from the host (other than the obvious samba share).

Disclaimer: I don't have any experience with ZFS, but I suspect it probably serves a similar role and might possibly be just as well or better suited.

This is my favorite kind of stuff to work on. Bust out the calipers and radius gauge, do some modeling, and warm up the print bed.

Very nice!

So what they are saying is it's okay to have telematics as long as access is only for those who they want to have it. The presumption is that the protocol/system is inherently insecure, so restricting it is the best way to avoid issues.

Classic "security through obscurity."

This argument has been made so many times in different forms. It's like the open source versus proprietary approaches to hardware, software, etc. But I understand it's a little different here because the implications of updating a vehicle's firmware is a lot different than updating your Roku. It's not as easy to implement security mechanisms like public-key cryptography on an embedded vehicle ECU meant to run reliably at all costs.

But artificial air-gap isn't the answer either.

Awesome writeup! Thank you.

I've always been intrigued by the concept of Nix but haven't had a chance to try it. And this is despite the fact that I had professionally built and maintained a custom LFS distro (later Gentoo, then more later Debian) and toyed with Yocto.

I'll try to find some time to give it a go. Also, even though it's probably not kernel or code related, you've inspired me to dig deeper into why my monitors continually wake for no reason.
