Still think communism is "cool"?

So I love the taste of energy drinks, but I hate the caffeine since it doesn't let me sleep when i drink it with dinner is there a drink that can accomplish my goal or is the taste in the caffeine?
EDIT: I figured it out so i you add water saffron rock candy and sugar add some sparkling water with lemon flavor then mix I haven't figured out how to make it as sour tho, but it's close in my opinion if you get the amounts right, but energy drinks have that artificial flavor so I can never make it truly the same

Two Dutch teenage boys aged 17, reportedly used hacking devices to spy for Russia, have been arrested by the Politie on Monday.

According to De Telegraaf, the two used a WiFi sniffer device near Europol and Eurojust offices, as well as the Canadian embassy in The Hague.

BleepingComputer has contacted Europol to confirm the reports, and a spokesperson acknowledged the incident, noting there are no signs of a compromise on the agency’s systems.

“We are in close contact with the Dutch authorities regarding this case. Europol has a robust security infrastructure in place, and there is no indication that our systems have been compromised. We take the security of our operations and staff extremely seriously and continue to work closely with our partners to address any potential risks.” – Europol spokesperson.

The boys were recruited over Telegram and were arrested following a tip from the country’s intelligence service, the General Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD).

Seems like every time I see a US police officer on video they have full arm sleeves.

Is getting tattooed a bragging right in US police circles?

Hey everyone!

I’ve been rocking Proxmox for a little over a year on an old Mac Mini with a failing NIC (I probably damaged it when I installed the SSD). So I decided it was time to get some new used cheap hardware and I have just received a HP Elitedesk 800 G3 SFF, going to throw 32GB of RAM, a 1TB M2 NVMe boot drive and a 4TB SATA drive for media in it (this will replace my external 4TB drive).

Right now in Proxmox I’m running a Docker VM with Debian (Transmission-VPN container, ByteStash, FreshRSS, KaraKeep), another Debian VM for Visual Studio Code so I can remote into VS Code on my Mac and iPad and couple of LXC containers (Plex, Open WebUI and Pi Hole).

Honestly Proxmox feels like overkill for what I’m doing, half of what I’m doing is either individual LXC containers or I find myself SSH’ing into the Docker VM. The Proxmox helper scripts are great, but I feel like I’m not learning much and I don’t know how much I can trust random GitHub URLs.

I’d like to start learning and becoming more self-sufficient with Linux. I was pretty excited by the idea of learning NixOS, get comfortable learning the code and then creating distinct configurations for different systems, including my Mac devices with Darwin… then I was reminded of all the recent bullshit happening in the community… I don’t want to get deep into the discussion in this thread, but I don’t really want to use/support a distro that Palmer Luckey and Anduril are trying to influence and control.

So I’m trying to decide if I should stick with Proxmox, try something like Arch or keep an eye on what’s going down with Nix and have a good backup strategy if the situation worsens.

I’d probably switch from Docker to Podman, use Wayland with Niri and learn NeoVIM and use SSH instead of VS Code remote tunnels.

Based on my current setup and my goals, what would you suggest I do?

“I decided to make this video to explain my intentions behind those Palestine videos again and show why the pro-Israel YouTuber's arguments—and a lot of his viewers’ comments— about my videos are inaccurate and misleading, while referring to reliable sources. I don’t know how many of his fans will actually watch this, but I hope this video not only shares accurate information but also highlights the importance of verifying facts before attacking someone—especially on a topic as important as this🙏”

My vision was based on sharing, not exploitation – and here’s why it’s still worth fighting for

A massive Russian aerial bombardment that lasted more than 12 hours has killed at least four people and injured 70 others in Ukraine.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said the deaths all occurred in the capital, Kyiv, where many of the projectiles were aimed, and the victims included a 12-year-old girl.

Russia launched nearly 600 drones and several dozen missiles toward seven regions of Ukraine, its air force said.

Zelensky warned that Ukraine would retaliate and said the "vile" attack showed Moscow "wants to continue fighting and killing".

Emergency services said that an attack on the city's Institute of Cardiology killed a nurse and patient.

A large bakery, an automobile rubber factory, as well as apartment buildings and civilian infrastructure were also targeted, Zelensky said.

[...]

Zaporizhzhia's Governor Ivan Fedorov said 31 people had been injured in the region, including three children - two boys, aged 11 and 12, and a nine-year-old girl.

One boy was caught in an explosion while the other had suffered carbon monoxide poisoning, he said. Both are in a serious condition.

I watched the long walk and now I'm reading the book. I was wondering, how credible is the distance? It's 300 to 400 miles. What would happen to your body on the way?

When I first got into self hosting, I originally wanted to join the Fediverse by hosting my own instance. After realizing I am not that committed to that idea, I went into a simpler direction.

Originally I was using Cloudflare's tunnel service. Watching the logs, I would get traffic from random corporations and places.

Being uncomfortable with Cloudflare after pivoting away from social media, I learned how to secure my device myself and started using an uncommon port with a reverse proxy. My logs now only ever show activity when I am connecting to my own site.

Which is what lead me to this question.

What do bots and scrapers look for when they come to a site? Do they mainly target known ports like 80 or 22 for insecurities? Do they ever scan other ports looking for other common services that may be insecure? Is it even worth their time scanning for open ports?

Seeing as I am tiny and obscure, I most likely won't need to do much research into protecting myself from such threats but I am still curious about the threats that bots pose to other self-hosters or larger platforms.

What do ambulances do with the cars of patients that call out of stationary cars

I hope they don't just leave them there unlocked

There isn't all that many works of science fiction with socialist themes and finding what there is is hard. It would be nice to have a list of leftist scifi that we would edit regularly so that we can easily find new things to watch, read or listen to.

recently my laptop ran out of charge, and when i turned it on it beeped a few times and asked to set date in bios. but when my android phone has powered off suddenly, it successfully booted but with a nonsense date many years ago. why does a PC-laptop require setting date before booting the full OS?

Ok, you have a moderately complex math problem you needed to solve. You gave the problem to 6 LLMS all paid versions. All 6 get the same numbers. Would you trust the answer?

In the 1990s, nobody knew how to make money through Internet subscriptions. It took an entrepreneurial porn star to crack the code.

The sanctions again freeze Iranian assets abroad, halt arms deals with Tehran and penalize any development of Iran’s ballistic missile program, among other measures.

Iran weighed Sunday how to respond to reimposed United Nations sanctions over its atomic program, with one lawmaker suggesting parliament would consider potentially withdrawing from the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty.

The sanctions again freeze Iranian assets abroad, halt arms deals with Tehran and penalize any development of Iran’s ballistic missile program, among other measures. Their return came via a mechanism known as “snapback,” included in Iran’s 2015 nuclear deal with world powers, and comes as Iran’s economy already is reeling.

Iran’s rial currency sits at a record low, increasing pressure on food prices and making daily life that much more challenging. That includes meat, rice and other staples of the Iranian dinner table.
