Hardened gentoo was great when grsecurity had their kernel patches opened freely to the public, but now idk. I’m more into hardenedbsd than anything gentoo nowadays.

People can and do make idols of anything, but Linux in itself is not a religion.

Thanks for all the hard work you all do!

For me, its the way they used procedural generation. Like its literally the same exact points of interests on every planet.

I remember going to a planet full of high level fauna and discovering a cave where you find a dead pirate that says these things are everywhere ahhhh. I thought it was cool. Next planet I went to had no fauna, and sure enough that same cave and dead pirate was in there saying the same thing with absolutely no fauna or enemy NPCs in there.

Its like they made 20 unique assets for the procedural generation tool to pick from. This is the exact laziness I found and drove me away from ESO. Just the same experience, with maybe a different faction here and there but the same points of interest over and over.

Other than that, I liked it. Basically skyrim in space. But very empty and they forced you complete like a 2 -3 hour mission before stuff opened up to you. And another 20 or so hours before a mission locked skillset is introduced. Huge waste of time IMO.

Its an alright game if you have a lot of time to kill.

In my experiemce, Java shoots processing usage up while COBOL uses much lesser CPU / memory

I think the majority of exploits in metasploit are for Linux, but could be wrong.

Look for something that can do rtsp streaming. Reolink, amcrest, ect. Its all cheap Chinese cameras that almost definitely dial out to some Chinese server.

What I do is have all cameras connected on a wireless router with no internet, use zoneminder on a Linux that is connected to my home network via Ethernet and the camera network via WiFi, and allow https into my home network from my VPN

But the add-on isn’t sandboxed like in chrome. Like i remember, depending on if you use an external MAC like apparmor or not, where if you’re runnimg in Linux and you’re using Firefox, websites could steal your ssh keys from ~/.ssh/

Malicious addons or websites could easily do the same thing, and steal your bitwarden credentials. Unless you have the premium version, you can’t put otp on it.

My biggest problem is the security and sandboxing around Firefox. I use both, but I feel my passwords are safer in Chrome tbh

Memory eternal

In the realm of firewall applications, i use the following: ° Ipfire is easy to use, but lacks ipv6 support and it doesn’t have otp. It has lots of packages though.

° Alpine is good, if you don’t want a GUI or want to spend time figuring out how to build a web ui (really good for beginners as its mostly xml)

° openwrt is good fit for low end hardware (SPARC or arm processors mostly) but also works on x86.

° opnsense - like pfsense, but more up to date. Has some quirks in it (like if you block both incoming and outgoing, but just want to allow 80/443, the rules look weird…like the direction you have to allow is in, but destination is 80/443. Very strange bug that isn’t in pfsense).

° hardenedbsd firewall - literally just opnsense but with hbsd’s fully patched kernel. No repo though.

That being said, you can make any distro a firewall, just use iptables/pf/ipfw/ipfilter rules through command line, and you can add anything in that distros repo you can think of.

Personally, I’d advise to use opnsense over pfsense. Opnsense kernels are more up to date, and the devs are less toxic.

Ipfire is a Linux alternative that is easy to use, just no otp.

Lord have mercy. Canada has lost their minds.

Grsecurity stopped providing their kernel patches for free years ago. The alpine grsec patches are years old – like before spectre/meltdown. Don’t use them. Just use hardenedbsd/netbsd/openbsd.

I’ve got a t620, and am using it as a firewall. It has aes-ni so I can generate certs. Plus it has a pcie slot, so I threw a nic in there. Its powerful for around the same price as a raspberry pi is going these days. I think I got it for about $80 plus $10 or $15 for the nic.

Yes, but it was loaded with self made blanks. He probably messed up the blanks and it shot some shrapnel.

I mean, if I buy a game on steam and valve goes belly up, how do I retain my games? Game companies were all too eager to stop selling physical discs for PC games and instead give you a code for you to redeem. And you can’t sell it after you play it like with console games, because it goes against most PC game companies’ terms of service (edit - …to sell your account)

If you buy a security camera that is only available through the cloud and the company stops paying for the cloud service, all you have is a paper weight
