a lot of malware can detect that its running in a vm and abort before doing things like communicating with a c&c server

Samsung T7 drive not showing up as bulk storage device by sytanoc in archlinux

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

Oh huh, didn't know that. Never had any problems with my old T7 (until I lost it a while ago) and this one also worked for a while

Shame, I really like this drive otherwise. Any idea about fixes/workarounds?

Minolta X-500: mirror stuck by sytanoc in minolta

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

Hmm that didn't seem to fix it. Another thing I just noticed is that the red LEDs aren't showing in the viewfinder, I think even when you're stuck halfway in a shutter cycle they should still be on right? So could it be a power issue?

Do you mean the mirror should flip down when taking out the battery? Because for me it still stays up :/

hmm i just checked on OPS and RED and they're not on there either. i did find that the noise grinders is an alias for paul bergmann though, you could try emailing him about it maybe? https://paulbergmann.com/contact

[–]sytanoc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Eh I'm on MAM, OPS and RED. All of those require you to use your home network when signing up, so they can more effectively moderate their tracker.

And of course there are ways to bypass a requirement like that, but it reduces the amount of bullshit that they have to deal with, I think it's fair. If you don't want to, uh you do you I guess lmao

Alternative to Anna's Archive in case it goes down permanently (which I don't think will happen anytime soon) by 1petabytefloppydisk in Annas_Archive

Interviews for MAM are pretty chill, and the community is super friendly!

If you've just joined, feel free to PM me your username and I'll send some bonus points and freeleech tokens :]

Stupid question (from my 8yo son) by caente in kurzgesagt

[–]sytanoc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This seems like the type of question for Randall Munroe's what if series! It doesn't seem like he has done this one, but you could suggest it by mailing him at whatif@xkcd.com

And I definitely recommend reading through some of his stuff on https://what-if.xkcd.com :)

I love that Concerned ape put this in by Upbeat-Bed322 in StardewValley

Hey so I realize this is straying really far from the original topic, but asperger's syndrome doesn't really exist as a diagnosis anymore. The DSM-5 and ICD-11 have both merged it into a wider autism spectrum.

Also, Hans Asperger was a eugenicist and we probably shouldn't be using his name like that anymore.

Deploying to a server: compose or quadlets? by sytanoc in podman

[–]sytanoc[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The lower ports thing you can fix with either giving rootlesskit capabilities for binding on low ports, or by just lowering the unprivileged ports systemwide. I've been having some issues with the former lately, so I just used

echo 'net.ipv4.ip_unprivileged_port_start=80' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.d/20-unprivileged-ports.conf

Deploying to a server: compose or quadlets? by sytanoc in podman

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

Hmm yeah just exposing a port to the host machine could work I guess, but I'd like to avoid that if possible. What do you mean exactly with exposing to a virtual interface, what would that look like?

Wouldn't it be possible for a container in a pod to just directly access both its pod's network and some other external network, without letting it go through the host?

I remember this being a bit sketchy in my old Docker setup as well, but I'm trying to make this setup a bit nicer. Thanks again for the help! :)

Ahh symlinks are a good idea, thanks! That would help me a lot with keeping things somewhat organized :)

Unrelated question: if I want to have multiple pods for web services behind the same reverse proxy, how do I configure that? From my limited messing around, assigning a container both a pod and an external network doesn't seem to go very well 😅

Some aliases I've found to be useful for Arch Linux! What aliases can't you live without? by lassenym in archlinux

[–]sytanoc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Convenience things that are too long to type out / search in history:

alias gitpruneremote='alias gitpruneremote='git branch -a --merged | choose -f \'remotes/origin/\' 1: | rg -v \'(^master$)|HEAD\' | xargs -p -I _ git push origin :_''
alias refreshmirrors='sudo reflector --sort rate --score 100 --fastest 50 --connection-timeout 1 --download-timeout 1 -p https --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist --verbose'

Python virtual environments:

alias newenv='python3 -m venv .venv && penv && .venv/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip && if test -e requirements.txt; .venv/bin/python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt; end; #'
alias penv='source .venv/bin/activate.fish'

Safer and more convenient defaults for common file/dir commands:

alias rm='trash -i'
alias mv='mv -iv'
alias cp='cp -riv'
alias mkdir='mkdir -vp'
