schestowitz-TRaAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRa usefuless file that was not supposed to be in ipfsAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRit was inherited from the home-hosted repoAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRbut it's not a bad fileAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRit just makes things less tidyAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRapparetly snuck in there in Marcheach year there are 9x365/6 new files Aug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRadding them can be made vastly more efficent, that's on the todo listAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRalso, in git you can find history for complete-split and updateAug 13 04:29
schestowitz-TRwhere you attempted to make grep better but it did not work the first time around, hence reverted backAug 13 04:29

schestowitz-TRif you restart tr-new it'll knock ii offline, but that's OKAug 13 04:35
schestowitz-TRI assume you might want to test rs-service with ipfsAug 13 04:35

Techrights-sec2turned off password authentication on tr-new to harden it and to quiet the logsAug 13 08:27
Techrights-sec2added nftables to tr-newAug 13 08:27
Techrights-sec2added a simple AWK script to tr-new along with a matching openrc init script to block attacking IPv4 addresses, to harden it and to quiet the logsAug 13 08:27
Techrights-sec2the system logs are useless without the above mitigationsAug 13 08:27
Techrights-sec2configured system logs, via syslog.conf, to split out authentication logging to a separate fileAug 13 08:27
Techrights-sec2fixed bad permissions for /var/log/ipfs/ipfs, the service must run as 'ipfs' and not 'glr'Aug 13 08:27

schestowitz-TRexcellent!!Aug 13 08:39
schestowitz-TRjust done some sanity check on gemini side, all is wellAug 13 08:39

schestowitz-TRso gemini is done (for tuxmachines also)Aug 13 08:39
schestowitz-TRin ipfs's case, it's all set, just not automated yetAug 13 08:39
schestowitz-TRwe still have one git repo on centosAug 13 08:39

Techrights-sec2for ipfs there is an openrc script in /etc/init.d/ for automationAug 13 09:50
Techrights-sec2it can be enabledAug 13 09:50
Techrights-sec2the system logs on tr-new are much better now and useful for further diagnosisAug 13 09:50
Techrights-sec2as neededAug 13 09:50

schestowitz-TRmoments ago (when you got back) i recorded a video about what you had seen, I think, last nightAug 13 09:56
schestowitz-TRvideo about the textAug 13 09:56
schestowitz-TRit's about how I envision how being both online and active the next 10 yearsAug 13 09:56
schestowitz-TRyesterday morning I reached a resolution (verbally at least) on the matter that bothered me for 2 weeksAug 13 09:57

schestowitz-TRand would not be the first time I get a threat over a fucking MEMEAug 13 09:57
schestowitz-TREU had discussions on copyright in relation to memesAug 13 09:57
schestowitz-TRiirc, the resultant law was, it's OK as long as the eme is low resAug 13 09:57
schestowitz-TRI think it's like the 5th time we receive threats over "copyright" in some random imageAug 13 09:57
schestowitz-TRof course I'm picky with licencesAug 13 09:57
schestowitz-TRbut with memes the originals' licences are unknownAug 13 09:57
Techrights-sec2ack     Aug 13 10:09
schestowitz-TRone child costs about the same as 20 years of freedom for a coupleAug 13 10:10
schestowitz-TRlike dfc said, the only reason some people maim for 6-figure salaries is kidsAug 13 10:10
schestowitz-TRbut the latter comes before the formerAug 13 10:10
schestowitz-TRan afterthoughtAug 13 10:10
Techrights-sec2more since the effective age of majority has become aroudn 25 or so and thenAug 13 10:11
Techrights-sec2there are "boomerang" kids and such then come grandkidsAug 13 10:11

schestowitz-TRwe assessed that with a kid a car too would be required for many reasonsdAug 13 10:12
schestowitz-TRand maybe simple activities like cycling would no longer be posibleAug 13 10:12
schestowitz-TRexcept with slave labour like grandparentsAug 13 10:12
schestowitz-TR(who btw I'm told don't genuinely want to look after the kids; it's tiring)Aug 13 10:12
schestowitz-TRso they pretendAug 13 10:12
Techrights-sec2ackAug 13 10:16
schestowitz-TRspeaking of which, poorly made electronicsAug 13 10:20

schestowitz-TRso she can hear what goes onAug 13 10:20
schestowitz-TRa set from 2 years ago went all dead, neither side worksAug 13 10:20

Techrights-sec2those are usually built so that the cables break or fray irreparablyAug 13 10:22
Techrights-sec2ackAug 13 10:22
schestowitz-TRI had one or two other new examples in mindAug 13 10:24
schestowitz-TRfrom yesterday Aug 13 10:24
schestowitz-TRforgot or cannot recall upon demand, but that does not matterAug 13 10:24
schestowitz-TRone can find new examples every dayAug 13 10:24
schestowitz-TRas things in the house age poorly, break, wear off..Aug 13 10:24
schestowitz-TRimagine if medical equipment like pacemakers got made the same wayAug 13 10:24
schestowitz-TRthey knoew they would get sued a lotAug 13 10:24
Techrights-sec2As far as I know they do get made the same way, at least insofar as they areAug 13 10:34
Techrights-sec2intentionlly made without a modicum of security; they are operatated in andAug 13 10:34
Techrights-sec2if an attacker wears down the battery of a pump or pacemaker, without killingAug 13 10:34
Techrights-sec2the patient outright, then the patient must undergo a replacement operationAug 13 10:34
Techrights-sec2back when Karen Sandler was pro-FOSS she spoke several times in detail aboutAug 13 10:34
Techrights-sec2the proprietary nature of the pacemakers and their insecurity.  She was not Aug 13 10:34

Techrights-sec2I'm thinking that the incron and cron jobs on tm-new and tr-new could beAug 13 16:30
Techrights-sec2moved to /etc/incron.d/ and /etc/crontabs/ so that they are easier to noteAug 13 16:30
Techrights-sec2and back up.  Thoughts?Aug 13 16:30
Techrights-sec2I guess that's where they are already so the question is moot.Aug 13 16:30
schestowitz-TRafter losing pi system I made it a practice to cron -l -u into files in homedirsAug 13 16:31
schestowitz-TRthe crontab could cron their own backup ;-)Aug 13 16:31
