Well that's an understatement, the countries are closely aligned with trying to destroy final institutions like international law, war crimes, and both are actively trying to redraw borders through force, not to mention the leaders having active arrest warrants from the ICC. That's before you even get started on the Epstein blackmail network and manipulation of influential people around the world. They are so aligned the most surprising thing is that people are surprised by statements like this

    Seeing behind can be tricky on a bike, it's not safe to turn your head when moving fast and often you need to watch in front as well as see behind, eg to pass an obstacle. Some kind of rear view can be handy, although mirrors are also possible to use

    So.. does calling for a revised state in Israel/Palestine that is democratic and without bias towards one race break this law? It is calling for Israel in its current form to be replaced

    Now that the Iran conflict is heating up again, one thing I'm surprised doesn't get talked about is where the oil reserves are at and where they are heading. Flow through the straits has been restricted for a long time, and once reserves get low enough it's going to make a big mess of the economy, but somehow markets are ignoring it and no one is talking about it?

     

    Let's say you have access to a remote machine and use it to copy backups occasionally, eg with rsync. Your local machine has credentials stored that allow write access on the remote machine, however if the local account was compromised that could also allow access to the remote machine and the data stored there.

    How can you grant access to an account to write remotely, but also protect the data from this account? One possibility could be to change the permissions on the data after it is copied to prevent deletion/interference, although I'm just making this up. Is there a standard practise for this?

     

    I wanted to improve the security of a TV connecting to a server on a different LAN, and one approach I thought of is to use a RPi on the network to look after the secure connection.

    So the pi could connect to the remove server through SSH, and forward the port locally. I thought this port could then be opened, and the TV can then be pointed at the pi on the local network.

    Port forwarding to the pi works but I can't connect to it from another device, even after setting firewall settings.

    Basically the firewall rule is ufw allow from 192.168.1.0/24 port 1234

    Does this idea work, or is there a better approach? Am I missing something in the setup?

     

    I've tried replacing the fans but the problem is still there, it sounds like a fan rubbing and it gets worse if the laptop gets flexed in some way.

    I took it apart to look for the issue, but I can't see anything, when it is open and upside down it runs quiet, unless you press certain places to make it flex around the fan, which is not unexpected. But I can't see anything out of place or see what can be fixed.

    The laptop is a Dell XPS 15

     

    I've set up a self hosted photo system with immich, and it works doing automatic backups of photos from the filesystem, eg using termux/cron, although it is a bit flakey. Immich also works for backup, but it's less ideal.

    iPhone seems to be a lot harder, backup in immich doesn't work, it seems that iPhones have a complicated was of handling background tasks which make background backups very difficult.

    Does anyone know a way of doing any kind of backup automatically, without plugging in a cable and without using iCloud?
