The FBI’s domestic terrorism watchlist is set to double in the coming months, according to journalist Ken Klippenstein, who has been reporting on President Trump’s National Security Presidential Memorandum titled “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,” also known as NSPM-7. The memo identifies potential domestic terrorists as someone expressing “anti-Christian,” “anti-capitalism” or “anti-American” views. Democratic Congressmember Ro Khanna responded on X, writing, “Trump’s NSPM-7 represses freedom of speech & association, investigating any organization with 'anti-capitalism' or 'anti-American' views. I ran a primary in 2003 against the Patriot Act and war in Iraq. NSPM-7 is a greater infringement on freedoms than the Patriot Act.”

Hello selfhosters,

I have two ip routes on my selfhosted server:

  • The first and default one is routing throught my ISP router.
  • The second one is a Wireguard connection that is imported and managed via Network Manager with the below options so it does not interfere with the default route.
sudo nmcli con modify wg ipv4.never-default true
sudo nmcli con modify wg ipv6.never-default true
sudo nmcli con modify wg ipv6.routes '::/0'
sudo nmcli con modify wg ipv6.route-metric 1000

I could test this setup with

curl ifconfig.me // IP from ISP
curl --interface wg ifconfig.me // IP of the VPN

Right now I would like to tell docker to create a bridge network that routes outgoing traffic from that bridge network throught the second (the VPN) route but I am struggling to do it.

I've tried to do this

docker network create vpn-net -o com.docker.network.host_ipv4=10.x.y.z // VPN inet obtained via ip addr show

but it does not work.

Do you have any suggestion about it ? Thank you very much!

Edit to provide more context:

Currently, what I am doing is adding network_mode: gluetun to all the containers that need to access to the internet: linkwarden, my arr stacks, qbit, IRC client, etc. This works great but it makes me paranoid because there is no isolation anymore, i.e qbit could access (or at least ping) to linkwarden's database since they are all in the same VPN network.

Therefore, I want to have more isolation between services: each service has their own bridge network so no other container could access the resources inside that network. I am thinking about running a VPN for each service but that sounds absurd and also there are limit of 5 devices so it is quite annoying to do this.

That's why I am asking is there anyway to tell docker bridge network to use specific host interface instead. The reason why I don't run a machine-wide VPN is because for some services, I prefer that they have the highest network speed and doesn't have to deal with the VPN overhead (like qbit should have their own gluetun container with its own port forwarding).

Same reason why I don't use a macvlan or ipvlan network, because there is no isolation. Please correct me if I am wrong on this. Thank you :D

Under new rules China introduced in April and dramatically tightened in October, foreign companies must submit granular, confidential data to obtain a six-month import license for rare earth minerals.

The forms are extraordinarily detailed, according to people who have seen them, requesting product photos showing mineral placement, manufacturing diagrams and customer details. In some cases, the application requests annual production data for the last three years and projected data for the next three years.

Hoping to speed license approvals, the German embassy in Beijing gave China a priority list. This “white list” did help bigger firms get sign offs, but it left behind smaller companies without lobbying operations.

“With all the information they are in the process of collecting, the Chinese authorities are likely also getting a picture of defense industrial bases in NATO countries and how intertwined they are with each other,” said MERICS’ Arcesati.

The Dutch government seized control of Nexperia last month, citing fears the company's technology would be taken by its Chinese owner, Shanghai-listed Wingtech. China, where most of Nexperia's chips are packaged, responded by blocking exports of the company's finished products, alarming European carmakers that rely on them.

Australia’s national children’s commissioner has seen “nothing” to address the gaps in community for young people that will be created by the teen social media ban, as well as an absence of support for vulnerable children.

Weeks after the social media minimum-age legislation passed parliament last year, commissioner Anne Hollonds aired her concerns that restricting under-16 teens from having accounts on social media could exacerbate existing inequalities experienced by young Australians. 

“The new social media ban for kids must surely now be the trigger to mitigate the risks of further isolating children in vulnerable circumstances and to address the systemic failings leading to escalating mental health disorders,” she wrote in December.

A year later, with Hollonds set to finish her term and just six weeks to go until the ban’s December 10 introduction, the commissioner told Crikey she still hasn’t seen anything that would address these concerns.

“There are plans and frameworks and strategies in place, but, to my knowledge, there’s nothing particular that’s been brought in to address the gaps when the social media ban comes along.”  

Hollonds said she’s worried the ban will adversely affect children who already struggle to find connection and belonging at school, citing LGBTQIA+ children, those with mental health problems, neurodiverse children, children with disabilities and complex needs, and children who live in regional and rural areas.

Earlier this week, Communications Minister Anika Wells met with mental health groups to coordinate their response to the impending ban. Some of those groups have also released online resources to help teens prepare. Minister Wells’ office did not respond to a request for comment by deadline.

Hollonds — who said she was “surprised” by the government’s commitment to the ban and wasn’t formally consulted about it — is not opposed to age-based restrictions for children and believes it will have some benefits. 

She said she has long supported introducing safeguards to prevent young children from being exposed to online pornography and harmful content: “I accept there does need to be guardrails to better protect our children from harmful content,” she said. 

Rather, her concerns stem from the focus placed on the ban and its purported benefits, and the lack of attention given to other aspects of children’s wellbeing.

“The ban has been presented as a solution to mental health problems and bullying. It’s seen as a fix, but it’s certainly not a fix,” she said. 

“Now that we’ve decided to have the ban, to do it this way, I think we also need to have a good, hard look at the unmet needs of our most vulnerable citizens.”

Hollonds said there’s been a spike in interest in children’s welfare since a series of recent reports of systemic failures in Australian childcare centres, but governments have repeatedly failed to enact serious reforms.

She said various inquiries have made more than 3,000 recommendations over the past decade and a half, but many have been ignored. Her 2024 report, “‘Help Way Earlier! How Australia can transform child justice to improve safety and wellbeing“, drew from these to make the case for “transformational change” to improve children’s wellbeing by reforming how kids are treated in the criminal justice system.

Above all, Hollonds said that children’s welfare reform has stalled because the federal government doesn’t have someone directly responsible for it — Australia does not have a federal minister for children. 

Until then, she explained she’d like to see governments get on with implementing “evidence-based recommendations” because there are a lot of issues that the ban won’t fix. 

“The prime minister says, ‘No-one left behind.’ Well, these kids are being left behind,” Hollonds said. 

Hollonds’ successor, Dr Deborah Tsorbaris, will begin in the role on November 17.

Hey Lemmings,
I’ve just finished up the second of John Scalzi’s Lock-In novels and I’m looking for some recommendations for some new books in the same vein. I’ve enjoyed a bunch of sci-fi mysteries like The Murderbot series, the I Robot novels, even Niven’s ARM stories. So throw me some more like that if you can.

Title - only have $70 till Tuesday next fortnight.

Need to feed two. Feels impossible.

Food banks are too far away (I'm in Opaheke) it seems no - one can deliver this far and walking 10kg+ with that weight as a 41kg male it's just barely possible.

Haven't the feintist idea what we will do.

Asked wins for a grant but I've already had two this year and as of late (3wks) they won't accept my application for TAS.

What do I do guys? Loosing my mind.

By "smoothing out" I mean flattening all mountains and filling all trenches so that the entire earth has exactly the same radius everwhere. Water naturally spreads out equally on such a surface, so how high would the water level be?

In short:

Staff at Australian Community Media, owner of the Canberra Times, say the rollout of generative artificial intelligence to assist their journalism has been problematic.

Staff say AI has misattributed quotes, wrongly identified people within headlines, and provided misleading media law advice.

What's next?

The ABC has found no evidence that any factual errors, reportedly made by the technology, have ever been published.

Hi all, I have setup dual boot as there are two (really it’s one by now) things that I occasionally use Windows for. One is reinstalling Windows for family and friends (Window’s installation assistant only runs on Windows) , and the other thing is Minecraft Bedrock Edition (to play Minecraft with my little brother, who plays on a tablet. Microsoft is intentionally limiting their Bedrock version to their OS only, which is stupid)

The dual boot works fine, I installed Fedora after Windows and there weren’t many errors. However, even with most of my apps uninstalled, Windows still took up about 200GB of space (what the hell??? That’s almost the size of what Fedora takes with all my editors, IDEs, browser, photos, documents, etc.!)

After running disk cleanup and removing nearly all non-necessary apps (so it’s just the default browser and not much else aside from Minecraft, which takes up 2GB), Windows still takes up over 100GB of space. I have also disabled hibernate as well as removed all residual files from some apps that didn’t fully uninstall themselves.

How do I cut down on the storage that Windows takes up? It’s kind of ridiculous. My only real purpose for the Windows partition is to play Minecraft with my little brother, so what else can I remove to reduce this bloated mess of an operating system?

note: I am not going to bother with VMs since I’ve already set up dual boot (and troubleshooted some annoying disk errors that Windows produced)

edit: I have removed all the “optional features” as well as removed the awdcleaner folder (which is a malwarebytes thing) as well as the esupport folder (which has copies of drivers I think). I have also removed a few more files here and there (appdara and programdata mostly) and now my windows partition is around 87GB. I have also deleted old restore points, which helps to reduce a few GB too. It seems that this is just about the minimum you can get Windows (apparently it typically takes up 60-90GB)
