Cult of the Dead Cow unveils 'Veilid', "a secure peer-to-peer network for apps that flips off the surveillance economy" by solarizde in c/technology@lemmy.world

Hey, that were exavyomy thoughts after reading it. Let's speak more clear.

A group use the protocol to setup a Plattform to distribute illegal stuff, child porn, drug marketplace, Warez...

Sure it might be the "bad protocol" I news and people / industry is trying to blame and block it. But because of the decentralized structuring like the onion net it is hard to.

Another aspect which should be thought about is government in repressive countries. Iran, North Korea, China, Russia... Name it.

You could block the protocol but how could it be by design setup to make it actually hard for NGFW to just recognize the package by header and filter it. Didn't check in detail but hope the implement some mechanics to make this hard.

Good thing is, it runs flawless on my Linux desktop too 👍 Just one of the best games I played in years. Good it payed out for larian to invest so much time into it. Maybe a good example for others that you do not need to rush a launch.

The time is now! Start your download! by solarizde in c/baldurs_gate_3@lemmy.world

Filesystem for external USB drive + encryption? (feddit.de)

Hey,

I currently have some thoughts about the possibility of using a big external USB SSD as storage device. In my Situation it need to live in both worlds, my main work laptop (Ubuntu based dis.) and on a random desktop with Win11.

Filesystem wise I`m currently thinking of choosing exFAT because of the simplicity of the FS. Another option would be NTFS and just mount it in Linux, but 2/3 of the time I will use it on my Linux system. So any downside here?

Data is mostly some Media stuff and ML Stuff I experimenting with, so could be very large files (llm models).

Is there any downside on using exFAT like reliability? Most sources state that exFAT was developed for mobile media like SD Cards and USB Sticks. In my case it will be a 2TB SSD :p On the other Hand how is the recent implementation of NTFS into Linux?

And the final thoughts is about Encryption; This seems unfortunately the actual issue, I want to have a partition on the drive which is encrypted somehow but can be mounted in both worlds. Is there a easy way to mount a LUKS on Windows? Or alternatives which lives in both worlds?

I do not need military grade ultra encryption, there are no state or company secrets involved, I just want to have a security measure when the device is lost / stolen that one can not just mount it.

I was thinking about maybe just using a VeraCrypt partition on it.

Thanks in Advance for some comments on my thoughts.

Not happening, because they have filters.

NAT Types, Cisco ASA vs others (feddit.de)

Hi,

I recently had to deal with a bunch of Gaming Consoles (PS5 + Xbox) in a network. In the past I always go the UPnP route for them to get their "NAT Type 2" (open nat) achieved. Recently we had them sitting on to 1000 Series Cisco ASA with a standard NAT. No UPnP and I was a bit surprised why and how Cisco manage that all the consoles can achieve NAT Type 2 without upnp.

Normally when the console request a fixed port to test the nat capability and is not flexible with that. So external port rewriting not working. This is where UPnP steps in and rewrite. But on the ASA Configuration was nothing else then the default cisco NAT involved and it was flawless.

Anybody with more Cisco experience than I can shine some light on that for me?

thanks

Redditors, how do you like Lemmy? by solarizde in c/technology@beehaw.org

[-] solarizde@feddit.de 8 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Still very new here and most problems I have is with filtering. No matter if Main page or in a post.

If you subscribed to a bunch of feeds it gets quickly very confusing to find things. You can choose top day or active, which is to long timeframe I would like to see some more customized preferences here like "Active but new 8h" or something.

Also big downside is that lemmy seems not take into account the strenght of single subs. So if I subscribe a big one like Technology my mainpage in active will 95% now only be this. It would be nice if the Active Filter also takes a bit diverse results into account and not only showing the most active sub.
