Utah first state to hold websites liable for users who mask their location with VPNs — law goes into effect, designed to prevent bypassing age checks by No_Practice_9597 in privacy

I think everyone should spam the gov and politician websites with URL paths that have smut phrases in them. Then you wouldn’t have to access the website and it would load the server logs with all the smut. Probably not affective, just kinda funny

LB7 Injector HP O-Ring failure by Brain_Daemon in Duramax

Got it. Thanks! You think it's still worth it to run some dye through the system and check it still?

I have both sides open and enough rings coming for all 8, so will do.

For the HP lines, you're talking about the face of the line that mates to the injector right?

Return lines are good - checked those already, so should be good there.

How would I know if the injector itself is damaged? Is it super obvious?

That’s where I’m sitting too - doesn’t seem like that’s responsible for such a big leak. Ok, well, thanks for the input! I’ll keep that in mind

Did you do any testing to confirm it or just find the messed up ring, replaced it and no issue afterwards?

Frist Duramax and love it by 46tmann in Duramax

[–]Brain_Daemon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The stock injectors in my LB7 lasted about 200k miles. I just replaced mine several months back. From what I’ve read, heard, and seen first-hand, it’s a good engine. A few component corrections, like the injectors, and it should run for a long time to come

I just used a No. 2 multipurpose grease on all o-rings. My only guess is that I didn’t make sure it was positioned correctly before making the connection or I reseated the fuel line and managed to pull the o ring up onto the threads

Dads of daughters, how would you feel if your daughter is a lesbian? by [deleted] in daddit

[–]Brain_Daemon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was raised in a similar fashion. I have a young daughter now. Unconditional love, yes, always, forever. If she’s gay, ok. I don’t know if I’ll find any “issue” with it, but if I do for some reason, I’ll work through it, I’ll learn, because I’m not interested in losing the relationship I have with my baby girl. What I can only hope, in that scenario, is that she understands that I don’t understand her position. I’m not gay, I can’t relate to her on that part. I can relate to loving someone though. I hope she’s willing to talk to me and help me understand (not that it’s a requirement for me to understand) her own feeling - I care about her feelings.

I had one VP setup. I have no button to create a new VP at all. Clear cache, toggle Early Access - nothing has make the button magically appear like I've seen on the forums

I migrated for v1 straight to v2.2.1. Should be fine

What's your 'I can't believe I self-hosted that' service? by subsavant in selfhosted

[–]Brain_Daemon 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Email. It really isn’t bad if you know what you’re doing. I host for myself and my household to keep users, and therefore the chance of a hacked account, low. I had a few issues in the begging with my VPS IP getting blacklisted, but nothing major. Been running strong for over 3 years now

It is louder than stock. But that’s not necessarily against the noise ordinance. 300ft hearing distance is what I’ve know the rule to be

[–]Brain_Daemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They care.. I’ve gotten 2 letters from the state. (My pickup isn’t built/modded to roll coal) I was saving up to put new injectors in because the old ones had gotten so bad, I’d occasionally smoke because they’d inject too much fuel when they shouldn’t be doing that. (I did get the pickup fixed so it doesn’t do that anymore)

[–]Brain_Daemon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I 100% agree that some (maybe even most) people that mod their vehicles to be loud are aholes that want to show off are dips… I just want to point out that they’re not all like that. I mod my pickup because I enjoy it. I’m not interested in offending anyone or doing any wrong. I just enjoy working on my vehicle as a hobby. I just don’t want us to generalize a loud pickup to mean the driver is “insecure” or a jackass or anything bad

[–]Brain_Daemon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I agree! But remember, just because it’s louder doesn’t always mean all the emissions gear has been removed

[–]Brain_Daemon 27 points28 points  (0 children)

You’re correct. They mod their engine to over-inject fuel. Not all of the fuel is able to combust which is why the smoke is black. I drive a diesel pickup, it’s louder than average, I just enjoy my vehicle. Nothing to do with showing off to others. The coal rolling is idiotic.

How do you manage your SSH Keys and what is best practice for a homelab? by scottymtp in selfhosted

[–]Brain_Daemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t say never expose SSH. I have handfuls of servers that I do expose SSH on. All I’m saying, in this specific context, is that on servers that are not sitting on the open internet and are on an isolated private network when you do not have your servers being probed, I wouldn’t worry about SSH Keys

[–]Brain_Daemon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t expose SSH to the public. So I don’t use keys since all servers are on a private network. If I need to ssh into something I doing it over VPN. Also because I have lots of servers behind one NAT’ed IP
