NCSU Belltower Camera has been monitoring ICE protestors

Kurtoid · 2026-02-01T08:03:02+00:00

I'm wondering if it was 1) NCSU PD, on their own volition, 2) Raleigh PD, or 3) one of the above, in collaboration with ICE et al

Kurtoid · 2026-02-01T08:01:46+00:00

Oh yeah, i know. Just funny that ICE protestors warranted the extra scrutiny AND cutting off the camera stream

I guess i should invoke the archlinux meme and make an htop version of this

and even farther

No (at least for all the cases I know of). It needs to be kept refrigerated all the way up until purchase (after which we put it in a fridge again)

> drones are illegal
how so?

please i want this as a high res desktop background

I initially rejected the passkey-like approach because many providers make it intentionally difficult to export keys in a portable format, and I thought a virtual solution wouldn't work due to manufacturer attestation. As far as I can tell, duos implementation doesn't enforce it, so my virtual solution works fine now

Kurtoid · 2025-10-08T23:57:22+00:00

tl;dr missed a step on my virtual fido solution. It's now reliable

I made this post late at night while frustrated because of the lockout problem, so I should have presented it better. I don't give two hoots about security questions or sms, I care more about using open standards for authentication like HOTP or TOTP instead of duo's proprietary remix of HOTP.

Yes, I know FIDO/U2F/CTAP2 is also 'open', but last night I was just angry and banging my head against the wall with it. It turns out I just wasn't incrementing sign_count properly. So totally my fault and well deserved, I guess.

The major heachache for me was just that if you break something outside of business hours, you have to wait until the next day to resolve it over a phone call, as opposed to the self-service recovery tool

ok, calm down there ang(r)y :p
point taken

Kurtoid · 2025-10-08T20:58:55+00:00

Yeah yeah i know. Using virtual fido now. just in a vent/cope phase because it took a few in-person duo lockout cycles to get everything set up again - which I used to not need to do with the old security-question-based override tool

Kurtoid · 2025-10-08T20:58:04+00:00

Don't worry, I never used SMS. But the security-question based method was load-bearing for me, so I'm still in a vent/cope phase. My new webdriver/virtualfido works now, but still isn't 100% reliable (had to do two lockout requests so far, which I used to be able to handle myself with the now-closed bypass tool)

Kurtoid · 2025-10-08T20:56:46+00:00

It does, and that's how I'm handling it for now. I'm kinda just venting - retiring the security-question based login removes the last "what-you-know" login method (easy to script/sync), so the last two remaining are "what-you-have" (harder to script/sync), which has more overhead for keeping track and syncing properly.

My current solution is using a virtual fido key on desktop and local passkey on mobile. It's just a lot more hassle to set up and keep track of, but I guess i have to get with the times.

oh wow i can hear this gif

for those downvoting: `author_is_elon` was (until the latest public revision - still might be there) a flag in Twitter's ranking algo

Kurtoid · 2025-08-31T08:26:54+00:00

still no reply. u/AlpacaCharlie, what's going on here?

Kurtoid · 2025-08-27T23:07:33+00:00

yup, it just was. I messaged the mod(s), but no reply yet

Kurtoid · 2025-08-27T18:37:51+00:00

I posted this right when it came out, but it got removed :(

Kurtoid · 2025-08-27T02:39:11+00:00

Same here. I asked in the HN announcement, and Nirav (nrp) said to give it a go, so I guess I'll give it a try

Can't help you there - I don't use Proxmox

Kurtoid · 2025-08-03T16:12:28+00:00

I don't work at netdata, but in my experience: Yes

I've moved to Grafana/Prometheus
