I’ll try an analogy to explain better. The firewall is a lock on the door to your house. Vlans are a rule that to go from one room to another, you must go back out the locked door and back in.

So an attacker tries to come in and can’t pick the lock. You are safe.

Another attacker can pick the lock and get into a room. But if they can pick the lock for one room, they can pick the same lock again and get into any other rooms because it’s the same lock protecting every room in the house.

if you allowed that to happen you either did not set firewall rules strict enough

The argument was that the vlans force a device through the firewall so that the firewall can protect it. But for that to happen, like you said the firewall wasn’t strick enough or didn’t have a defense against a 0 day.

So the vlan doesn’t do anything either way. Either the firewall works in which case you don’t need vlans to force local traffic through them a second time or they don’t work in which case again the vlan did nothing.

To compromise a device on a vlan it had to get through the firewall. If your firewall couldn’t stop it then it can attack any other device by going through the firewall because again the firewall didn’t stop the device from being compromised in the first place.

You can do that at the router. You don’t need vlans to block Mac addresses.

haven’t really found any personal need for VLAN segregation

I feel like many setup vlans “because it exists”, not for actual need. The security reason generally doesn’t exist for home labs because most need to setup bridging or you can’t access the devices on the secure vlan at all.

In response to German purity laws, IBM has added an optional field to their citizen database. It just defines a field “Is Jewish” so it’s standardized, but entirely optional. IBM does nothing with the data.

What a nothing burger.

It’s not that it’s slower than ext4 but that btrfs itself has gotten slower.

Trying to turn it into one will attract lawsuits

Photoshop wasn’t the inventor of their GUI. There were many paint programs that predate Photoshop that Photoshop based their GUI on.

And there hasn’t been a “look and feel” lawsuit since Apple sued Microsoft.

It’s not dev time to fix UI complaints that have been made for 20 years. They have added hundreds of complex features in that time.

It was their ethos to not be Photoshop no matter how convoluted their alternative workflow needed to be.

That doesn’t exist anymore. Can’t even play Nintendo without it asking for updates to the system and MarioKart.

I doubt it will matter much. Like GPUs, prices during the crunch doubled. After the crunch prices went down ~20%. Everyone cheered that the shortage was over. No one seemed to notice that everyone was still paying 1.8X more.

So ram is up like 4x. After the shortage prices will drop 25%. People will be paying 3x for ram and think everything is great.

They are already in use, even with manufactories in Spain.

That’s not a diamond transistor company. They are making diamond wafers to mount to traditional silicon. It’s a heatsink.

Here’s a good overview of the current state of the art in diamond transistor manufacturing.

It would be a hard fork which Google is forcing anyway. That’s the path Graphene is taking.

It’s start with a basic working phone gui and apps and improve it (Graphene’s path) or start with absolutely nothing and build everything again (Pine OS etc’s path).

I don’t see why you’d need to run pure Linux over Android. Android phones at their core are a Java app running under Linux. There were even lawsuits because Android was originally a Java app.

Working on the open Android projects seems more productive.

Did they fix the hinge problem? I read last year there was bad quality control.

There is no need to breakup Netflix and Disney. This was solved 80 some years ago with legislation that didn’t allow studios to control movie theatres. It was no coincidence that Disney+ launched a month after that law was rolled back.

Everything today ignores all laws by saying, “Yes the law says it’s illegal but it doesn’t specifically mention using an App so we can do the illegal thing with an App.”

I gave up on LTT after he attacked Gamers Nexus years ago. But his mockery of Musk in this video might get me to resub.

He’s not talking about people who actually switched but those that publicly say, “I’m switching.” But never do or immediately backtrack.

What is on my mind right now is why you care so much.

He wants to hear about those that tried it and stayed and those that tried and went back. It’s very important to know both despite his hostile phrasing.

How did you finish Minecraft?

Dahua and Hikvision have great cameras but of course you shouldn’t trust them. Block them at the firewall. I bought mine a few years ago and preferred Hikvision for its better built in webserver for initial configuration.

On the hosting side you run Frigate, Zoneminder or BlueIris (Windows) to control the cameras and record their streams.
