This is about the cosmic desktop environment, not a CPU architecture

Does anyone know if firewalls like OPNSense can do IPS for ads and tracking instead of “normal” intrusions like malware?

AFAIK CTT’s tool literally uses Microsoft provided tooling.

Edit: it’s the same tooling used by companies to modify their own windows installs

Last I checked windows 11 can be installed without TPM support. I think rufus even has a simple checkbox for it and Chris Titus’s winutil can modify an ISO to do the sams

That’s really cool! Rewriting sudo in Rust actually feels like a no brainer tbh

How would that be different from other countries? Would there be too many cultural similarities?

As a kid I used a metal tool to cut a live wire 220v-240v wire and besides getting scared by the jolt I was fine. Probably because the protection circuits kicked in

Cloudflare tunnels definitely aren’t wrong, you’re just not entirely using open source software. It’s a very good option if you need to open things to the public or want to learn more about cloud services

You can selfhosted tailscale so that they don’t have any access. You can’t with cloudflare tunnels as far as I know. Tailscale’s client is open source, so is their Headscale server which originally was developed by a 3rd party. You can look into the code for that. Not sure what you’d want me to say. If you really want to be informed I’d inspect the code yourself

Tailscale shouldn’t be getting your data anyway. It’s a mesh VPN that directly connects devices after their auth server gives out certs and let’s clients know where to find another. If you’re not comfortable with using their server for this I’d suggest you look into the open source headscale server. I do remember it routing through their server in the rare case NAT punching doesn’t work

I tend to have a harder time focusing at home compared to at work. I doubt the productivity difference is the same way for everyone

Personally I use tailscale which should punch through double NAT. It’s a wire guard based mesh VPN, but an exit node should make it a normal VPN

You can definitely write C# code based on all open source things. Microsoft open sourced C# and it is used on Linux too

You can use headscale with tailscale if you want to self host it. Headscale is a community made server implementation for tailscale

While I’m using AMD, I have had no issues with Nvidia on Arch using X before I switched earlier this year. One just installs the nvidia or nvidia-dkms package. My main reasons to switch were I had a 1060 6GB and it was getting old, AMD had a better price and if I’m keeping this one as long as my last I wanted to be certain wayland support was good even though I don’t use it right now

This video from thiojoe is probably relevant here. It is mostly for scam websites, but maybe it’s useful for this too? At least gives you some platforms to contact
