I got back yesterday from working on this dig. It was my first field school experience — but despite the fuckery that is tent-camping in central Texas midsummer, I can safely say I’ll be back every chance I get.

If anyone reading this needs a push to get involved with their local org: do it! Best decision I’ve ever made, and the best pool of people I’ve ever met.

The project was a beautiful reminder that even in rural Texas, there are plenty of unsung heroes out in the wild who dedicate their entire lives to building community and looking out for others.

Lampless.

I hope one day you see the light.

That is a setup guide for hardware key and passkey auth. It is not a hardening guide, and does nothing to mitigate these LPE vulns.

Please tell me more, which firewall would you recommend that plays nice with Docker?

Firewalld

No NAT?

Another user in this thread suggested DMZing, so combine your advice with theirs and boom. It’s not uncommon, and it’s fine if you firewall the box yourself. Most people don’t knowingly choose to use a firewall that they don’t intend to work, like you would.

why would you copy paste a docker compose without reading it?

There’s more than one way to use docker. Spinning up an official mysql image using the official docker run OR docker compose calls suggested by the docs would start up a server wide open to the entire internet if DMZ’d.

Just to throw out an easy option: if the music is well-labeled on Youtube, you can get pretty close to that full suite with just yt-dlp by using --embed-thumbnail as a stand-in for album art, dumping your files with an “Artist - track - album” naming structure using the --output-template flag — then using an awk or python script as a second pass to add the artist/track/album names to each file as tags.

E: and in case it isn’t self-evident, you don’t have to give yt-dlp a URL for each track; it’ll work fine with a playlist URL.

Yt-dlp is the gold standard for that.

Tag cleanup and album art are their own beast that you’ll wanna tackle post-download, but beets is another gold standard tool that can help with that layer.

Gnome. The maintainers have a hard-earned rep for contemptuous attitudes towards community and end-user feedback.

You shouldn’t suggest UFW at all then. There are other firewall options that can be used just fine with docker.

It does have real potential to cause issues, e.g. if OP were to put their server in DMZ mode on their router and later copy some docker setup instructions that don’t explicitly bind to localhost.

This is dangerous advice because docker is well-known for undoing UFW’s iptable rules. It’s mitigated by binding to localhost, but still way too easy for people to shoot themselves in the foot by using the two together.

In that case… welcome to the club.

You might get more than you bargained for: Shuttleworth has one helluva grip after all these years.

 

If you crave fat beats, this one’s for you.

Hey garden peeps!

I tried overwintering some of my pepper plants this year. The process worked very well, and was easier than I'd expected, so I figured I'd share the results in case anyone else finds this useful.

Only big catch is that you'll need a space that stays around 40-60 degrees across your winter season. If you have a garage, basement, shed, root cellar that meets those requirements, you're in luck - otherwise, you're probably better off sticking to starts, or barerooting in a used wine cooler.

I used this page as my guide: https://peppergeek.com/overwintering-pepper-plants/, but to summarize, you basically uproot your plants at the end of the season, prune them down to the bottom few nodes, root wash them, and stick them in fresh, cheap potting soil with a small light to hang out for the winter.

Additional notes:

  • I added crushed granite as a mulch to keep out fungus gnats.
  • Watered every ~3 weeks, going off of container weight.
  • Kept the light timer around 6 hrs per day.
  • I pruned new growth for the first ~6 weeks, then tapered off to avoid draining all of the plants' reserves.
  • I followed the standard hardening-off procedure to reintroduce the plants to the outdoors.
  • This was USDA zone 8, so the short winter made this EZ mode. Maintenance was painless and the plants were showing little sign of stress, so I don't think it would've been hard to keep it up a few more months.
