You can encrypt a volume using LUKS while keeping the headers on a separate file. That way the data will be Indistinguible from random gibberish.
If authority asks what's in the driver you can just say you bought it and the previous owner might have used some file shredder to clean his personal files. Plausible.

Technological optimism in current dark age.

Delta Rune normies and tourists trying Black Souls II and then getting horrified about it. Might be a good filter.
Anyone knows good imagemagik commands to turn photos into beautiful newspaper style dithered monochrome images? Its for e-paper.

#asknostr what’s the hottest NIP to send DMs?
Turns out most of the people telling me to stop watching animu to save western civilization on X were from India and Bangladesh.
I’m writing a small webhook to parse and forward Grafana alerts to Nostr notes and DMs. Does such a thing already exists?
Someone is lying here.


Megadeth aged better than Metallica. Looking forward to Dave’s version of Ride the Lightning.
So this is how you add PostgreSQL extensions on NixOS:
extraPlugins = with pkgs.postgresql_16.pkgs; [

Fulcrum initial sync is extremely slow. If your computer crashes during sync you have to start all over again. Even after you finish it, if you close it incorrectly it while it writes something you are also toast.
I found that doing periodic shutdowns and running a backup is the best strategy here. And then repeat from time to time after you get it synced.
If anyone is wondering the speed in comparison ti electrs makes it totally worth the pain.


Amber text on black background is very soothing.


I’m going to make people angry here but a Raspberry Pi 5 8GB with one of the the Poe+ NVME hats is a very capable core+fulcrum+cln node provided you use an NVME through the PCI-E interface.
We need an MSGK standard.

If your friend forgets their Linux or Unix computer logged in add this to their ~/.bashrc:
function ls {
touch furrygayporn.mkv
command ls "$@"
rm furrygayporn.mkv
}
PS: If inetd or xinetd are installed add a rule mapping a port to "/bin/shutdown -r now" for added fun.

Oh fuck I've sneezed at the general direction of Fulcrum again.
Why does it corrupts so easily? Such a waste of time.


FreeBSD can now run OCI (docker style) containers. Both FreeBSD native and Linux.
Note that the Linux containers are running on the Linuxlator compat layer and not under a vm like MacOS and Windows does.
