    Youve minimized login risk, but not any 0 days or newly discovered vulnerabilites in your ssh server software. Its still best to not directly expose any ports you dont need to regularly interact with to the internet.

    Also, Look into crowdsec as a fail2ban replacement. Its uses automatically crowdsourced info to pre block IPs. A bit more proactive compared to abuseipdb manual reporting.







  • It is cat and mouse, but it has an issue maybe every year or so, and they generally resolve it same day or next day with an app update. The hardest part is generating your own google api keys, but there are straightforward guides and you just need to do it once.

    The upside? No ads at all, sponsorblock integration, and an easy 10ft interface that works great with a remote. No shitty web site to navigate with a mouse. Just a list of your videos each day. Click and play.

    I cant speak to your overheating issues. I have kodi running on 4gb raspi 5s with the default case/fan. No problems. An external usb fan might help you out. I’ve used one of these with a raspi in the past. Its roughly the same size as the raspi, but dead silent. Moves insane air.







  • The statement that “SMR exist because small reactors exist in nuclear vessels” is disingenuous, if not an outright lie. These reactors are small, but are not mass produced in factories and then assembled on site in a paint by numbers way that SMRs are pitched as. They are each bespoke, horrifying expense reactors that are just smaller than standard land based reactors. The designs are not “assembly line” ready at all.

    They are designed for a certain size, but also for warfare. They spare literally no expense when making them, and do things that no civilian plant should ever do. The cost per megawatt is astronomical. Just unimaginably expensive, to the point of being instant commercial dead ends. Literally none of their designs would be considered usable, even if they weren’t military secrets.

    The truth of the matter is that no one on earth has a working SMR design. The US goverment dumped hundreds of millions of subsidies into them recently and the companies all failed. This 15 billion for 4 plants next to Toronto, a city Doug Ford hates, is likely a mix of vendetta and media blitz for Ontario to deflect from their minimal renewals commitment.

    Vates is pretty chill, as is clear in the article. I think your point is well said, but Vates likes the “vibe” of FOSS, and is willing to take a bit on the chin to keep that energy internally. A bit of “turn the other cheek.” They also clearly enjoyed the whimsy and just straight panache of being ripped off in this manner for a while. Their company is doing well and growing rapidly from an excellent product, so I doubt the money mattered much.

    Well, even Jesus started kicking ass at one point with the money lenders. It looks like they are getting there now.

    Vates spun up xcp-ng off the xen hypervisor and created a great “vsphere” like management plane called xen orchestra. Its a fantastic hypervisor with vsan/built in backups/etc. With vmware self immoliating after selling to Broadcom, they are an ideal stand in for vmwares primary product. Their licensing costs are wildly reasonable, even before the vmware debacle.

    They have gone from “a guy” to a 100 person company in the last few years while sticking by the FOSS ethic entirely. You can build the project from source, or even grab a few github scripts that build it for you. They have always been open and clear about letting you build it and use it however you like.

    They know how to cut this abusive behaviour off. They are fully capable. They don’t want to use those tools, legal or technical, because it goes against the spirit of FOSS, even if it’s to stop someone else who is abusing the spirit of FOSS.

    Being good people, they are using “name and shame” first, and are even so kind as to leave the “name” part out for now. I expect that they may make some changes down the line if the org, and maybe others playing this same game, dont play nicer.
