whats the problem with IPv4?

ngn ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar
  • we already have enough IPv4 addresses thanks to stuff such as NAT and CG-NAT, these devices also protect the end-user by not directly exposing their IP to the internet
  • what’s the problem with broadcast? also afaik IPv4 also supports multicast
  • what’s the problem with IPv4 subnetting?

ngn OP ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

My ISP provides fiber connection. I want a device that can provide 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz WiFi and 1Gig ethernet.

ngn OP ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

I dont know how things work in the US but I dont understand how its possible for an ISP to control a device you own?

if you are using the ISP’s modem, yeah they probably have an interface to control the device remotely and i understand that - but if you using your own modem, with a different firmware, how are they even gonna access it?

ngn OP ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

artix: adding arch repos to artix results in bunch of package issues, after using it for a while it gets to a point where you have to specify 50+ –assume-installed flags just to Syyu

i switched to arch just because of this

it is but if 20 years later there are no apps that support xorg… well, you wont have the choice of running xorg

ngn ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

xorg letting a malicious program to record keys is not a security issue, its a weakness

having that malicious program on the system, thats the security issue

if you are implementing a display protocol that aims to replace the xorg, the focus should be compatibility not fixing security weaknesses especially if you dont have any better solutions, and wayland does not have a better solution for global keys, compositors are just implenting it on their own hacky way

ngn OP ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

picom doesnt support wayland and as I far as I know qtile doesnt have any compositor effects

ngn OP ,
@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

I dont want to switch to another wm just to use wayland

also I dont understand why people are rushing to wayland, there are still bunch of issues and half of the shit runs on xwayland anyway - just give it a couple more years

@ngn@lemy.lol avatar

security? I don’t think systemd vulnerabilities are that critical, a vulnerability in systemd will provide a way to privesc at most, which means that the attacker must have initial access to exploit it. And considering that most linux servers are using containerized systems, a direct systemd exploit is not possible in most cases

also, more people using systemd means more devs working on systemd, so more security issues will be found and patched

i agree, i feel like all these companies and goverments are using “protecting children” bs to censor the internet and violate privacy rights

if you are an adult and you give your kids unrestricted internet access it is your fault if they see any nsfw/l content, neither goverment nor the company providing this content should be responsible for it, as an adult it is your responsibility to keep your kids safe PERIOD

Resources to learn about history of linux

I have always been a history enthusiast. Unfortunately,I don’t know much about history in the context of computers. I am therefore interested in learning more about significant events and people like Richard stallman and all the related events such as Windows refund day. I am interested to read and explore the timeline, I...

Goodbye Youtube and thanks for all the fish (infosec.pub)

Youtube let the other shoe drop in their end-stage enshittification this week. Last month, they required you to turn on Youtube History to view the feed of youtube videos recommendations. That seems reasonable, so I did it. But I delete my history every 1 week instead of every 3 months. So they don’t get much from my choices....
