This is like the third time in my life I've seen an interrobang in the wild. And I don't know, but I'd prefer JSON over having configuration as constants in a PHP script like at $DAYJOB sob

replied to:

Ok, that sounds significantly worse, but like, YAML and TOML exists people…

replied to:

My problem with yaml is the indentation annoyance it leads to, and if you are using the same tool on two different machine like windows and linux, have fun configuring those tabs and spaces all the time. I do like toml and ini for editing, but json is not as bad as yaml for sure

Hi, teying to get started with linux and basic networking/cybersec here. What are some essential linux commands ant tools, or pentesting philosophies i should learn before i dip my toes in the water? Thanks :)

replied to:

Essential commands are: ip for network interface and routing config host/dig/nslookup for DNS querying tc for traffic control nft for firewalling mii-tool for interface tweaking nmap for LAN discovery tcpdump to view traffic ping/ping6/traceroute/traceroute6/mtr for debugging connection issues

replied to:

thanks so much. i will look into those

replied to:

there's also ufw (and its gufw) as an alternative to firewalld. apparmor, if you care.

thanks, :)

You’ll learn Linux commands as you go not as the goal itself.

I can't figure out what's leaking on my '73 F250. Shows up slowly at the back of the oil pan. It's pretty clear because I've recently changed fluids and scrubbed the engine. It was definitely brake fluid for a while after it was overfilled but that has evened out. The oil level is steady after when checking every 10 miles or so. I think anyway... hard to know with these 😬

last time i checked cbd was just not psychoactive at all no?

replied to:

It doesn’t have the high but it will make you more alert, kind of like tea or coffee.

I just took a look on it yesterday and seems like the stimulant effect is there, so seems like at this point there are mix results on if it actually helps with anxiety and sleep issues. For me personally seems to work just fine but Im not 100% sure how much does it actually does something for me or is just a placebo effect. My thinking is that if I do it from time to time, I can let my body get use to the feeling of a sleep schedule without create dependency on external melatonin dosis or CBD.

Anybody here using mastodon regularly? What instance are you on? I can't decide on where to register 😅

replied to:

I'm using mastodon.social but i think you can look the instances in their site and decide by interest.

There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.
