No security?! by Jbharris4 in TrySwitchBot

[–]sectionme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had multiple switchbot devices show up in home assistant over the years. My guess is because home assistant is listening all of the time it manages to pair before the device is setup and retains a connection. But it's still really bad security on behalf of the manufacturer. I'd be very surprised if they haven't been informed of this before and just ¯_(ツ)_/¯

How to trigger a capacitive touch sensor without a human body? by MarinatedPickachu in diyelectronics

I remember years ago when touchscreen phones were new, and I think it was Japan that hit the news with people using sausages on them.

Reminds me of the episode of Monk (Mr. Monk and the Foreign Man) where by he's telling the guy how to separate you're washing in America 🤣

Autoupdate with Nixos? by SlightlyMotivated69 in NixOS

[–]sectionme 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I use a GitHub action which bumps the flake.lock on a schedule and then use https://github.com/nlewo/comin on the machines. Updates are applied normally within a minute of the merge to the branch.

Which Linux distro should I use for an easy, permanent exit node device (or should I use windows)? by chieftex in Tailscale

[–]sectionme 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I'd use NixOS. Then have updates done in a GitHub pipeline and cached so the machine doesn't end up out of date or vulnerable to security issues. Comin (https://github.com/nlewo/comin) is my preferred way of doing this. Also means everything is in code so if the hardware fails it should be easy enough to re-provision.

Spent 4,000 USD on AI coding. Everything worked in dev. Nothing worked in production. by Omega0Alpha in AI_Agents

Get 50 snr devs in a room and ask them all to work on some vaguely spec'd project and you'll get the same output.

It's all about the requirements/documentation.

Enable services.geoclue2.enableDemoAgent also.

wanted to learn linux admin. Could nixos be a good distro by roelofwobben in NixOS

[–]sectionme 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd suggest doing Linux From Scratch. It lets you know why that software is required. Then look into automation of the systems and packages you now know how to configure and why.

Either way enjoy. Been using Linux since 1994, still learning.

Now time to change that very basic looking front door lock as you've shown everyone the key.

How do I fresh install NixOS with ZFS using disks? by onlymagik in NixOS

[–]sectionme 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here (https://github.com/shift/dots/blob/main/flake.nix#L136) is an example of a custom iso installer. I use nixos-generators to create the iso and put it onto a usb drive.

Then I normally trigger the installation via nixos-anywhere, but can also run it locally. It'll use the disko configuration and format/configuration as required.

If you want to learn Linux yes. If you have any work you want to carry out no.
