Puke in, money out

Can we abolish the word “consumers” please?

“Parts of the society” fits it better

The world we created…

Actually with electronic cryptographic IDs we could get rid of a shitload of issues. Everyone gets 2 passkeys and a strange method to reset stuff like with some other identification.

We should invent something that rotates community IDs but only non-bots see the real IDs, flood lemmy instanced with anti-AI posts and dont federate those posts.

Like, lemmy.ml/c/linux is suddenly garbage, and actually another community.

But I guess that would create massive drawbacks in UX, requiring javascript, logins or even captchas and breaking links

Damn, we are finally indexed??

mkv is just a container containing whatever files. Not sure but some could contain code

Have a look at Dangerzone to strip code from tons of files. Videos not included afaik

Not using Windows helps a ton :)

Would be fun to buy and host a good site on

I recently got a zipbomb + trojan through a Github comment. Was removed very quickly and unrecoverably, crazy that they can even so this, not even the repo owners see it anymore.

Yes this is true. That is why a separate method would be needed, to log into and hand the password to the LUKS decrypt of the server.

I heard Debian can do this with ssh in the initramfs?

Sounds like a hella pain of course.

Alternatively I thought about using a security key to unlock, and in scenarios where I am worried about getting hardware stolen, I can pull it out and need to manually enter the password.

Yes the threat model is people pulling out the drive, of course.

How should they get access to the server when it is running? You still need to connect to it and log in, which wouldnt be the case.

Rebasing is not important, for the most people.

I like to try variations of the same system, like Fedora Kinoite, uBlue kinoite-main, uBlue Aurora, secureblue Kinoite-main, went back.

But resetting is the key.

Also rebasing would allow you to switch from normal deployment to a local image host, like in your LAN. This could already be worth it if all your family uses the same system, even more a company.

You can do uBlue style stuff at home on your own server, mostly with podman and buildah

Yes microOS ticks those 2 boxes.

Fedora on its own doesnt do backups at all, which I find crazy.

rpm-ostree or bootc though are better, as they allow rebasing, resetting etc. This is not possible with microOS, which is a huge dealbreaker for having a server that will never have the need to be reinstalled.

I will try Caddy! Did you use NGINX before?

The threat scenario is currently very harmless, but I had situations where Raids could be likely. This is always a shitty case, you need to hide a backup laptop in a different location etc.

But honestly I just find this security hacking a ton of fun.

Hm, so when using Nextcloud, is the db itself encrypted or something?

All my devices are encrypted.

Access to the decrypted data requires RAM access, or even a cold boot attack. There are people that only use their USB 3.0 ports and desolder all the rest, because normal (non thunderbolt) USB is pretty safe and has no access to the RAM, unlike PCIe, SATA etc.

This would be fun and certaily possible modifying the hardware to fit those SSDs still inside the case could be fun too.

I have 4 enclosures for that, and using Ethernet would mean the Wifi Card (Intel AX3000, a modded 200 for mPCIe) could be removed.

Or access to the server via ssh (fail2ban, strong keys) or the admin or user nextcloud accounts (again with strong passwords and possibly TOTP or webauthn).

I already fiddled with the required Nextcloud Addons for TOTP and it worked great. Webauthn is an Android/GrapheneOS limitation poorly, maybe that gets fixed some day.

The issue of course is upgrades. I should do a second post on that topic. There are solutions for that, like mounting encrypted partitions and running Nextcloud on there. This could be automated.

For the obvious raid attack, I would have a udev rule that detects when AC is disconnected and then performs a clean shutdown.

Thanks for the tips!

Both SSDs are SATA and I want to LUKS encrypt both too.

So automatic updates could work, but I guess I would need to manually reboot as there is no remote LUKS unlock option. Debian has one?

That would also be a reason against Fedora with its very fast release cycle.

Yes it does. Fedora Atomic and others could be problematic with Docker, while Docker may be less secure or whatever but is also easier.

Also the distros packages matter, etc.

Wtf did I just watch

My backup is seeding.

Yes, I also dont understand why Peertube works so badly. It is one of the platforms with the most quality content, but its decentralization really makes it require an app.

sepiasearch.org helps here, to connect all instances and index them
