IKEA devices apparently work very well with Aqara
When it comes to zigbee devices, don’t combine the aqara wall switches with large (4 buttons) ikea remotes.
The wall switches tend to execute the commands from the remotes instead of just routing them to the coordinator.
My Zigbee network also improved a lot when I set up some IKEA plugs in the loft.
I have similar experience with the ikea bulbs. More of them I connect, more stable the whole network gets.
Gmail offers imap amd smtp access. You have to enable 2FA, and then it will allow you to create account for so called “less secure apps”.
In your place, I’d either continue using gmail directly, or finish the configuration of the self hosted mail server and just use that with any smtp/imap client. I suggest getting a separate domain for testing first, before moving your primary inbox there.
Wasn’t the new motherboard released even before the OLED?
If a vendor strangely insist on not working on a new product, it’s lying.
In this case it’s obvious, considering we already got 2 minor revisions of steamdeck HW.
Steam provides it’s own linux userspace runtime. The game developers just target that to avoid the problem you describe.
you still need good security configuration of the exposed service.
In a sense that security comes in layers, yes. But in practice, this setup will prevent 100% of bots scanning the internet for exposed services, and absolute majority of possible targeted attacks as well. It’s like using any other 3rd party VPN, except there’s not a central point for the traffic to flow through.
From the attackers point of view, nothing is listening there.
I’ve used a similar setup in the past to access a device behind a NAT (possibly multiple NATs) and a dynamic IPv4. Looking back, that ISP was a pure nightmare.
This is not a guide to hide from the government or ISP. Just a way to tunnel to your home server without publishing the sshd for random strangers. Personally, I’d just publish the ssh and be done with it.
I would rather live without the correlation attacks
The more people using Tor, the less useful targeted disconnects become.
Which is still just as open, but also a massive calling card for anyone trolling around the TOR network
Luckily, it is no longer possible to easily sniff the new v3 addresses by deploying a malicious relay. Any attack to even reveal the existence of a hidden service would require a very specialized setup. And we’re just talking discovery, not the ability to connect and attack the actual service running there.
just connecting to Tor is very much a huge exposure imho
Exposure of what, to whom?
The first original recovery image did not support ethernet connection. Steam wouldn’t let you through the initial setup. Not sure if there’s an updated image available these days.
Before the steamdeck came out, I’ve been actually thinking about buying an android handheld console. The fact that the most android games were pay2win convinced me to wait for something better.
However, getting an android app support, that’s reliably set up, by someone else than me, and basically for free would still be nice!
Of course security comes with layers, and if you’re not comfortable hosting services publically, use a VPN.
However, 3 simple rules go a long way:
Treat any machine or service on a local network as if they were publically accesible. That will prevent you from accidentally leaving the auth off, or leaving the weak/default passwords in place.
Install services in a way that they are easy to patch. For example, prefer phpmyadmin from debian repo instead of just copy pasting the latest official release in the www folder. If you absolutely need the latest release, try a container maintained by a reasonable adult. (No offense to the handful of kids I’ve known providing a solid code, knowledge and bugreports for the general public!)
Use unattended-upgrades, or an alternative auto update mechanism on rhel based distros, if you don’t want to become a fulltime sysadmin. The increased security is absolutely worth the very occasional breakage.
You and your hardware are your worst enemies. There are tons of giudes on what a proper backup should look like, but don’t let that discourage you. Some backup is always better than NO backup. Even if it’s just a copy of critical files on an external usb drive. You can always go crazy later, and use snapshotting abilities of your filesystem (btrfs, zfs), build a separate backupserver, move it to a different physical location… sky really is the limit here.
I love how Endzone, the type of game that usually relies heavily on mouse, has adapted the controls for a gamepad.
I’m getting kinda tired of the slideshow snobs, telling everyone how 30 FPS is enough. The games are supposed to be fun, and not cause nausea. I’m willing to compromise on the former, but not the latter.
All they need to do to beat steamos is to release.
Yes, on the outside meter. It comes with a magnet with a double sided tape which you place around the LED, and the sensor itself just hangs on the magnet. But I’m not sure if american meters provide such interface.
I’ve asked the utility provider for some kind of official, approved, solution, but all they have to offer was to replace the entire meter, and even that would only report a 15 minute average via some proprietary API. The frient device is clearly a better solution. No wonder they were sold out for months.
The utility meter provided by the distribution company has an LED indicator reporting the consumption. I use this zigbee device which converts the LED pulses to a numerical value, and sends it to homeassistant.
Isn’t that mainly a problem with recursive DNS servers? The authoritative servers are only aware of the few domains they’re hosting.
It’s an excellent thin client as well. I’ve played the second half of death stranding through the free tier of Geforce Now.
