  • Unfortunately a lot of good homelab, Networking, security and other niche knowledge is still on reddit.

    Technically one could just archive the relevant subs from reddit using an automated crawler and never have to visit the actual website again, both not everybody is self-hosting to that extent. This is for people who haven't self-hosted yet

  • Well I get that they are stupid, but unless it's their fetish to catch 14 year olds trying to spread rubbish propaganda, I doubt they're going to get much. Any reporter, activist and consumer knows that anything they put on these apps goes straight to the NSA's and MI6's AI algorithms at the very least, and now they're going to go to the rest of Europe.

    Yes, we should be protesting against this. Does Europe have an equivalents of the EFF to fight for such rights?

  • My point being, what are they going to achieve with this? Ask WhatsApp to pass over their encryption keys?

    It should be pretty obvious that you shouldn't be sharing sensitive stuff on chat apps controlled by the NSA. Use element with encryption or something, maybe Briar etc. What are they going to do if you insist on using apps which use asymmetric client-side encryption, break TOR? Force you to use symmetric encryption and give the government your decryption keys?

    I don't see how they are going to spy on sensitive details of Europeans with this. They might as well ban phones completely if they want to limit communication.

  • It's a coincidence, I was thinking about a PiKVM myself, although with much more modest hardware (a Raxda/Banana Pi Zero at best - I wonder if these can actually hold up). I'm not very familiar with PiKVM setup; do I need to compile the repository from source on whatever I run on these machines? Is there a minimum requirement for specs?

  • Thank you, having a serial port would be amazing but unfortunately, unlike UART on microcontrollers I'm using x86. Sometimes I think I should just have stuck to a laptop as a server with some SSDs in it and the other machines being ARM/RISC-V. Definitely would have been more fun
