  • Headline is wrong. The article makes it clear that it’s in exchange for prisoners in Israeli jails PLUS a truce.

    Last week there was an effort from the Qatari brothers to release the enemy captives from women and children, in return for the release of 200 Palestinian children and 75 women detained by the enemy" Abu Ubaida, the spokesman for the armed wing of Hamas, al-Qassam Brigades, said in an audio recording posted on the group’s Telegram channel.

    “The truce should include a complete ceasefire and allow aid and humanitarian relief everywhere in the Gaza Strip,” he said.






  • Are we talking about the same Sharon that Palestinians hold responsible for the Sabra and Shatila massacre? And the same Sharon whose visit to Al-Aqsa was rightly or wrongly said to be the proximate cause of the Second Intifada (and which ultimately allowed him to come to power)? The same Sharon who built the wall between the West Bank beyond the Green Line effectively annexing large chunks of land in all but name? That Sharon? Just want to make sure that we’re talking about the same guy








  • Spez is Steve Huffman aka Pig Boy. He is current CEO of Reddit and one of the founders. Users largely blame him for the enshittifcation of Reddit over the past couple years in pursuit of profit.

    Aaron is Aaron Swartz. He was also a co-founder of Reddit. He was very dedicated to the idea that knowledge should be open and free. He got caught downloading JSTOR articles in violation of JSTOR’s ToS. The feds charged him with CFAA felonies and faced 35 years in federal prison. He killed himself while awaiting trial. Really sad shit.

    The implication is that Aaron never would have stood for this sort of profit-motivated enshittification.

  • Wait. I can use my Apple TV as a VPN server? Did I understand you right? That would be a nifty redundancy tool for me if my main wireguard server goes down.

    Edit: I guess I should’ve just RTFarticle:

    But look at it this way: your Apple TV device is a capable little computer, and it stays connected to your tailnet even when it’s not in active use. Download and configure Tailscale now and you can securely route any of your other devices’ traffic through your Apple TV — and by extension, through your home internet connection — even when you’re on the other side of the planet. Whether you want another layer of security and privacy on sketchy Wi-Fi networks or just want to connect back through your personal internet connection when you’re on the road, you’re set with the Apple TV as an exit node.

    So sounds like the tv doesn’t act as a server natively but I can use tailscale to leverage the tv to do that. I’ve never seriously looked at tailscale as wireguard generally worked well for me. Guess it’s worth a look.




  • My server closet was a mess. I kept justifying it by saying I didn’t need to waste money on proper rack equipment. Finally cracked and upgraded to a 15u rack and got some 3D printed rack housing for some of my non-rack equipment. Everything looks so clean now. Vanity project? Yes. Expensive? Yes. Am I happy with it? Yes. Do I wish I did it five years ago? Yes.

    Do it. Go a little bigger than you need. Airflow. Expansion. Whatever. I probably could have made an 8u work but I’m happy with a 15u.
