Raw HTTP with no protection is as dangerous as the activity implied by this innuendo.

Hey, they even have an old-school tracker-free static advertisement image on that page. Now that's a classic.

This is a straight-up national security issue for Taiwan. Its chip factories are an integral part of its defence strategy and it needs to be able to use them as leverage to survive.

Boost for Reddit quietly still works for moderators but the app is probably now unmaintained with all development effort (one guy) going towards the Lemmy version

Well at least it didn't save us -10^100% and just post the text equivalent of a ZIP bomb

Well, not really. Someone on Reddit told me the solution.

I wasn't aware that rsync also copied system files. I'm curious to know why my method is unsafe. The only potential problem I see with what I did is mixing up if and of in dd.

Resizing the filesystem with resize2fs solved the issue.

[–] NateNate60@lemmy.ml 32 points 2 years ago (4 children)

I figured it out. I need to run resize2fs afterwards. I ran sudo resize2fs /dev/mapper/luks-5e5f911c... and that solved the issue.

Sorry, too busy licking boots. That's all I do, day and night. What were you saying again?

He's already got a job, and you aren't going to get PTSD from spinning a sign. On top of that, you can quit any time you want if you want to do something else.

Yes, it is enough. Generally, the default handling of connections on Linux is enough but having ufw can't hurt. Certain developer or server software may not work unless you add UFW exceptions for them. They don't know how to do this on their own.

By default, without a firewall, any program can communicate through any port it wants as long as it can bind that port. Ports that are special or low-numbered (e.g. TCP port 21 is reserved for FTP) require root to be bound. Otherwise, a program can bind any port that isn't already in use by something else. All incoming connections to a port that isn't bound will be refused and the information discarded.

Edit: Your router also usually has a firewall that is strong enough for most everyday purposes.
