Nextcloud zero day security
  • My recollection is that Fail2Ban has some default settings, but is mostly reactionary in terms of blacklisting things that it observes trying to get in. Crowdsec behaves in a similar vein but, as the name implies, includes a lot of crowdsourced rules and preventative measures.

    Did I miss something passing through my iGPU to VM/Docker?
  • Now that you have a working setup, make a backup. Then, experiment with either starting over and only doing a few of the steps OR experiment with removing some of those parameters. Find your minimum set of working parameters this way, then you can look them up to find out more about what each parameter does that you discovered to be essential.

    I can for sure tell you that passing the render device is required for hardware transcoding, but I'm not sure what else is required. The iommu and vfio parameters are related to passing the entire gpu device into a container, but I don't know anything about Proxmox so I can't comment on whether that would be required for your situation.

    FCC Moves Slowly To Update Definition Of Broadband To Something Still Pathetic
  • DOCSIS (AKA internet service over coaxial cable) deals in some number of bonded channels, meaning portions of the total available bandwidth on the wire. They asymmetrically allocate channels to download speeds to overcome the limitations of the older copper wire technology. 100Mbps symmetrical is beyond what most of their existing "Broadband" infrastructure can support in rural and underserved areas, so they complained about it being unreasonable. 100Mbps symmetrical is certainly possible over DOCSIS, but speeds are only as fast as the weakest link... And there are a helluva lot of weak links outside of high population density areas.

    Is it possible to rip audio from youtube without loss of quality or online conversions?

    Microsoft fixes the Excel feature that was wrecking scientific data
  • Microsoft’s blog adds caveats, such as that Excel avoids the conversion by saving the data as text, which means the data may not work for calculations later. There’s also a known issue where you can’t disable the conversions when running macros.

    14 years after playing League Of Legends for the first time ever, I, today, played it on Linux!
  • Productivity in general is the only reason to still use Windows. Office is a big one (though great alternatives like LO and OnlyOffice exist), but also Adobe products, pro audio software, etc.

    whats the best FOSS IDE (and why?)
  • I really wish the WSL extension wasn't locked behind VS Code. My workflow is heavily reliant on it which locks me into the proprietary IDE.

    China gives Ehang the first industry approval for fully autonomous passenger-carrying air taxis
  • To be clear, I definitely agree that this is a bad idea.

    However, one of the hardest things about making autonomous cars work is avoiding traffic and pedestrians. If air traffic control can be managed such that these avoid other aircraft (and things like buildings and cell towers, obviously) I could actually see this as easier to get the software working.

    Why You Can't Currently Download Ubuntu 23.10 - OMG! Ubuntu
  • The commit added Ukrainian translations to the install instructions. Most were vanilla, but at the end of the file they added some statements with things like "Oh no, this is inappropriate for your sensitive religion". I'm not quoting exactly here, for obvious reasons.

    massgrave.dev creator announced return of HWID activation!
  • KMS requires phoning back to MS periodically to keep the license activated. It's still "permanent" because there's no limit on duration (as of now at least).

    HWID activation registers a hardware ID in MS servers to permanently license it. That means no renewal, just forever activation that survives reinstalls.

  • Given what I've read about BG3 allowing anyone with at least one level of Wizard learning any spell for which they have slots, and how 5e in general handles spell slots for multiclass casters, I'm thinking to make a Wizard 1/Sorcerer X character, and using the ability to learn from scrolls to remove the limited spell pool weakness from the sorcerer. But then I was thinking - are they Wizard spells if I learn them that way? And if so, will they use INT for attack rolls and save DCs?

    I don't have a save file with a high level character that I can just respec to try it out, so I'd appreciate if someone could try it out or just share if they already know the answer. Thanks!

    EDIT: Looks like BG3 maintains separate spellbooks, which makes it clear which spells are which and therefore which ability is used. I confirmed that as a Wizard 1/Sorcerer 3 I could learn a level 2 spell from a scroll, which confirms that a Wizard 1/Sorcerer 11 could focus on learning offensive spells with Sorcerer levels, and utility/defensive spells from scrolls.
