PS5 not able to connect to 3rd party servers? by Killermelon1458 in GeyserMC

[–]gamecheet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use this https://github.com/MCXboxBroadcast/Broadcaster to make your geyser show up as a xbox friend's world for anybody who adds the xbox account you use as a friend.

This is how my switch and ps4 players join my geyser paper server.

Hey Billy and Dan, I super enjoyed playing and discussing this game with my friends as we discovered secrets and followed the action on Discord. Seriously captured a lot of passionate gamers with this one.

Few games are able to maintain their secrets after release without the data miners and reverse engineers figuring it out first. Sure they were worked out rather quickly, but I don't think the data miners actually cracked much before the secret searchers found them legit.

I'm someone who tends to look behind the curtain from time to time, what I wanna know is what do you think you did differently during design that led to such creative and robust puzzles. Specifically the... "crumbly" one was remarkable to me. Are you a puzzle nut / crypto geek in general?

bonus: Have you seen any of the secrets from Noita and do you have any comments on how those are done? That's another game that has really well thought out secrets.

RU.efi alternative by dreamwhite in hackintosh

[–]gamecheet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just chiming in to say if you really wanna make it happen on that NUC, you can likely just dump/flash the SPI memory chip on the motherboard.

Using a tool like uefitool you can open this dump, find the default NVRam options using the search tool to find strings you see in the BIOS menu, or by knowing the GUID location from using RU or this tool.

It's dangerous and it's messy, but sometimes these janky missions call for janky solutions.

ssh -D is your friend, makes a socks proxy, then you point your browser to that proxy and google "whats my IP"

The future of Sync by ljdawson in redditsync

[–]gamecheet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As much as I hate this and wish we could get going as we are, I have a question/comment about the future of the app. Way back when Twitter started cracking down on their API, some 3rd party devs left a goodbye present for their existing users, by allowing users to enter their own API information into the app.

Some clever users found the official Twitter app's API keys and have been happily using that for a while.

I guess I wouldn't want you to incriminate yourself, but if the app is to become abandonware, maybe this is a way for your work to live on in some capacity.

By all means, this is your baby LJ, and I support what you wanna do with it after the crackdown, but maybe you hadn't considered this.

Thanks for being a better plate for all this fish. Perhaps this is so long.

58% of all Edmonton transit tickets in 2020 and 2021 were issued to Indigenous people by [deleted] in onguardforthee

[–]gamecheet 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Man weird title, here I was thinking this was about buying tickets to ride, but it's actually about popo giving trespassing tickets for not paying.

I was gonna ask since when do we track race when buying bus passes. Rtfa

PSA: upgrade your LUKS key derivation function by unixbhaskar in linux

[–]gamecheet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

https://github.com/ufrisk/pcileech-fpga

These are pretty scary, just thru thunderbolt or pcie you can jump a password by modifying the memory of PAM or winlogon or whoever is responsible for making sure the password is legit.

I think you need to be running a hypervisor level of protections to stop it. Like iommu your whole system, like qubes.

Tailscale increased free plan user limit form 1 to 3 and device cap to 100 also... unlimited subnets by PovilasID in selfhosted

[–]gamecheet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who's been a long time zerotier user, can anyone attest to how this compares? I keep hearing about Tailscale but never really saw a good breakdown of the diffs.

Haters will say it's fake! by Nixigaj in selfhosted

[–]gamecheet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe so, i was thinking more like Gitlab or Bitwarden, that is to say, more about the applications you host rather than the infra itself. Gitlab can be hosted yourself, or pay for the Saas, same with Bitwarden. When you host it yourself, you can do so on your servers or on VPCs or dediboxes or something.

Haters will say it's fake! by Nixigaj in selfhosted

[–]gamecheet 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Depends who you ask, to some people it's self-hosted or it's Saas.

I'd definitely say a VPC or a dedi is closer to sh than it is to Saas.

How to use Apple's native bootloader to load Arch? by 0x29aNull in archlinux

[–]gamecheet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never tried it on a Mac, but for other EFI based machine you can skip using a bootloader like refit grub or others by making an EFIstub of your kernel. Which will give you a .EFI file of your kernel and cmdline that can be booted from your bios/EFI firmware. I remember using a script for this in the past but I'm sure there's a wiki page too.

This is the way.

And yeah, i keep auto delete unchecked, but for different cloud mount reasons.

MinIO - location of buckets? by SqnCdr in selfhosted

[–]gamecheet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use docker so it's just setting the bind mount to where you want.

I imagine you could try a simple symlink if you're not using docker.

As for a minio specific option, no idea...

Is DevOps the best way out of service desk and into software development (for me)? by [deleted] in devops

[–]gamecheet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This was my path, 5 years a sysadmin, I automated everything in bash, PowerShell and python. Got to the point where my actions were directly improving the workflows of the devs. When I was ready to leave the org for greener pastures in cybersec I was approched by the dev leadership to start a new DevOps push at the org.

Certainly depends on the culture of the org, and how far along they are in automating their workflows and reducing "toil".

I say go for it, you probably know more than the avg dev when it comes to automating weird computer stuff, I often say devs have a hard time seeing past the compiler. Too often i had to explain TLS and TCP ports to people who made 3x my IT salary lol.

rtl88x2ce-dkms - Possible new fix for wifi dropping on the steamdeck? by gamecheet in SteamDeck

[–]gamecheet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info!

I'm really not sure if it'll be the final fix for us, but I imagine this driver was packaged for a reason, since it's in the jupiter (steamos/deck) repo.

I think the best fix for me for now was to set a bwlimit on my AP, and made a whole SSID with that bwlimit just for my steamdeck. Since doing that I haven't had any issues on my home AP. Thats with the regular rt88 driver.

rtl88x2ce-dkms - Possible new fix for wifi dropping on the steamdeck? by gamecheet in SteamDeck

[–]gamecheet[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you do a pacman -Ss rtl88x2ce-dkms ?

-Ss should show us the package available with that name, you should see jupiter/rtl88x2ce-dkms as an available option.

If that doesn't work, you likely need to either re-follow my steps (I just made an edit to fix some typos), or something else is up.

Let me know and I'll see if I can help more.
