Have you had anyone with experience with security look at this thing? There’s a lot of really questionable practices in your schedule shell scripts. I especially find how you’re handling VPN secrets kinda worrying. And the backup_challenge_clients.sh script isn’t robust at all. Your nginx config has a few bad choices like lack of try_files, the regex \.php$. It’s definitely not hardened so I hope people don’t put this Internet facing.

I’ve spent like 5min in the GitHub to get a feel for the project maturity. Personally, I don’t think this is suitable for actual use yet.

If you’ve not done any security assessments on your project yet, you might not want to (a) call it “Safe”box and (b) might not want to start charging money for it until you do.

I worry you’re setting yourself up for a hard-to-shake-off embarrassment should a nasty vuln be found. Maybe a name like “selfbox” etc that drops the connotation of security would be safer.

Edit: Kudos on the project website though! Looks fricking gorgeous.

A wild sparkly fart appears

Who can murder someone with a PC this excellent?

Professor Belvedere “Fartsparkles” Tinkletuft was once a respected lecturer at the Neverwinter Arcane Academy. His groundbreaking research into “transmogrified odoriferous manifestations” (or, as the students called it, fart magic) was dismissed as childish and “in poor taste.”

In protest, the Professor vowed to prove that flatulence is the ultimate illusion. Through alchemical experimentation, he discovered how to weaponize his digestive essence into arcane displays — clouds of glittering gas, illusionary stink beasts, and even gaseous duplicates of himself.

Now he roams the realms, performing “scientific demonstrations” and occasionally saving the world — usually by accident.

Also Steam already has this feature. I can bounce between Linux, Mac, and Windows with my saves. I don’t need something for Windows only…

Do you mean Zen Browser? Zed is a text/code editor.

Given how immensely fun Untitled Goose Game was, I’m cautiously optimistic for this one.

Hop on over to overclockers.co.uk as they sell plenty of AMD gaming laptops but I’d hit up their forums first and ask for advice or give them a call. Someone there will be able to point you towards a decent model that supports Linux well.

PCSpecialist laptops are usually easy to install Linux on. Just be sure to change the operating system to “No operating system required” to save some money by not paying for a Windows license.

Juno Computers ship theirs with Linux preinstalled.

Dell also sell theirs with the option of Ubuntu.

No

When I plug my phone in to charge, it says “Oh yeah, stick it in me, baby”.

Yes, I am a fully grown adult.

And I can do what the fuck I want (regardless how much my partner requests I do not do what the fuck I want).

They pushed their own init system, Upstart, before jumping onto the systems bandwagon.

And artists are getting paid peanuts in return.

Album sales have plummeted and Spotify are slowly replacing real artists with AI generated music to avoid needing to pay them.

Music streaming is an excellent example of what we don’t want to happen to another art form.

As one of those old farts that picked up Minecraft during the 0.0.x days, this isn’t far off. Wrong perspective though.

They’ve fixed most but “new new” still seems to be there and that “of”.

Bloody hell that article wasn’t even proof read once before publishing. So many grammar and spelling issues!

I’m sure there’s a decent fork. Read the code; there’s not much to it!

If you’re on the same network, take a look at snapdrop. It’s basically cross platform AirDrop.

What’s the context in which you’re needing to share files?

My first thought is host your own FTP server and send people credentials to log into it with and upload.

I thought the drivers were already merged into the kernel as hid-sony or hid-playstation?

Have you tried removing ds4drv and just trying to connect the pad via USB? If that works, you can try pairing via Bluetooth.

It could be your Mint kernel is old and doesn’t have the drivers. I’m on Arch so I’ve had no issues and the pads just work and Steam handles them with no issues.
