If you don't want to risk getting a ban at all, the only safe thing is to not connect to the internet at all. Maybe there is some level of safety, but it could take only one mistake.

If we assume that we fully understand how nintendo catches this, we would still only ubderstand at that point in time. They could still change or push updates which could cause you a problem.

Does that only happen when it tries to download files ending in .db.sig? If so, I think I read somewhere that db have no sig. So as long as it otherwise works, this error is cosmetic.

You could use a custom XferCommand command per PACMAN.CONF(5) with wget using -6

Something like this might work:

XferCommand = /usr/bin/wget -6 -c -O %o %u

If you want something similar to vim or neovim, but without all the fuss learning how to configure it and install plugins and such, you could try helix.

I would return it, but if you are curious you can try some of the following to get experiencing identifying bad disks.

You could try a different computer or controller to be sure.

If you can get some writes/reads to work, you can use badblocks or dm-crypt: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Badblocks#Alternatives

Badblocks will write known data to disk then read it to verify its good. If the disk is malicious, this can be faked. badblocks is also a little slow.

Using dm-crypt in the wiki will write zeros through dm-crypt which will result in random noise being written to disk, then compare with zeros to verify reads are good. This can not be faked easily since the zero stream is encrypted as it is written to disk.

The last I looked into it, the best way to do it was to get an older kindle so you could download the older DRM copies of books from amazon. But I think some newer books are using only the newer DRM which I don't think has been cracked.

It has probably been at least a year since I checked. If you do end up finding an updated method, I would be interested.

I would advise just creating ~/.bin or ~/.local/share/bin and dropping it in there. As long as you have permission to that directory, yt-dlp should be able to easily update itself.

I was very against Biden dropping out, but i think this is a pretty good point. I think it is still very risky for her to run due to race and sex discrimination, but it might not be a predetermined loss at least.

Don't buy into tape. It is costly and is inferior to hard drives by most metrics for smaller scale operations. You can easily get 8TB hard drives for less than $20/TB. While tape is cheaper than that, the drive to actually use it is expensive, plus you get all the disadvantages of the tape itself.

Fun fact: you can probably buy a whole server, external sas card and disk shelf for less than the cost of a somewhat modern tape drive.

If you are wanting to store less than 100TB of data, it would probably be cheaper to use drives, then in 3-5 years buy another set of disks and still be ahead compared to tape.

Immigrants shockingly often vote conservative.

I am not sure what these results mean exactly. Perhaps the third generation is some specific type versus the second.

I'm liking thunder, it supports multiple accounts. Switching accounts is a bit bugged, i have to close the app to have all ui elements update properly.

Which one is it?

The union negotiations could include in the contract that AI generated actors are not allowed when SAG is involved.

That doesn't completely stop AI, since they could try to use non union actors or no actors at all.

The issue with AI is that it is software, and software can scale very quickly. So large amounts of jobs could very quickly get automated without allowing workers and the economy to slowly adjust over time. Switchboard operator was just a single job in a single industry.

It will also lead to more consolidation of wealth since existing bussinesses stand to make great savings getting rid of people, and the AI itself is privately owned. Funny enough, this could also blow up in their face since that creates inventive for people to vote.

Note that v1 and v2 torrents use slightly different url fragments, so this won't work quite as easily as you think. It would be possible tell the difference because they use different hashes with different lengths, but most people probably won't know.

There are definitely differences, but usually they don't matter from a simple address and routing perspective.

For example, there is no ARP in IPv6. Instead another protocol is used called Neighbor Discovery Protocol, which actually is done through ICMPv6. Therefore, if you blindly block all ICMPv6, your network may break.

Once you have a grasp on v6, it is much better than v4 because even the smallest common v6 network size of /64 is many times larger than all the addresses in v4. Every device can have it's own global ip, so you no longer need nat at all. Everything can easily connect, assuming there is no firewall blocking it.

It can and will work, but it will not be optimal. You will be able to connect to other peers, but other peers will not be able to connect to you. This usually isn't a big deal, but it's not great in situations where there are not many peers, and you need every connection you can get.

DNS vc is used for any dns request, not just zone transfers. UDP can sometimes fail in some situations, in which case the client will fall back to TCP which will keep it working.

No, you should keep both udp and tcp port 53 open going out. blocking dns vc/tcp will result in dns being partially broken.

Why would you strip ipv6 if mullvad supports it. The reason people disable or block v6 are for 2 reasons, ignorance, and/or the vpn providor doesn't support ipv6. V4 and v6 can and usually do run at the same time (this is called dual stack), so if the vpn only touches the v4 side of things, v4 will be tunneled while v6 will be unaffected.

Also, the firewall doesn't matter if you use a torrent client that can just bind to the wg interface (assuming there is no nat being performed from the wg interface to the physical interface). The client will take one or all of the ips on the interface, which will make it impossible to leak IP directly assuming your switch or router doesn't also have an ip in the same subnet as your wg interface ip.

I don't know UFW, but if you run iptables-save or nft list ruleset i can take a look to see if it is sane.

But what i can tell is that it might work. You appear to be only allowing public traffic to wg. It should be noted that this setup will likely fail at some point because you are hard coding the IP. It should fail safe, but the public internet will not work.

It's basically how widevine works. The hardware "secure" boots the OS, and the OS only loads signed code. And there is a chain of custody all the way to the hardware, so the software that communicates with the server can attest that it is the same as what they expect.

The simple explanation is that they wish to further erode property ownership by the proletariat by locking down operating systems such that they can't do as their owners wish, but only what the corporation wants.
