  • They can do both, and if their stance is at all ideologically motivated, then it is necessary to focus on more than just the low hanging fruit of doing reviews.

    The free software movement is more than just the free software existing. It is also congruent to the laws that permit it and extending rights

    Right to repair is about more than simply fixing things. It’s about going after companies and lobbying to get actual rights enshrined into law.










  • Why would you strip ipv6 if mullvad supports it. The reason people disable or block v6 are for 2 reasons, ignorance, and/or the vpn providor doesn’t support ipv6. V4 and v6 can and usually do run at the same time (this is called dual stack), so if the vpn only touches the v4 side of things, v4 will be tunneled while v6 will be unaffected.

    Also, the firewall doesn’t matter if you use a torrent client that can just bind to the wg interface (assuming there is no nat being performed from the wg interface to the physical interface). The client will take one or all of the ips on the interface, which will make it impossible to leak IP directly assuming your switch or router doesn’t also have an ip in the same subnet as your wg interface ip.

    I don’t know UFW, but if you run iptables-save or nft list ruleset i can take a look to see if it is sane.

    But what i can tell is that it might work. You appear to be only allowing public traffic to wg. It should be noted that this setup will likely fail at some point because you are hard coding the IP. It should fail safe, but the public internet will not work.




  • The likely retaliation RH/IBM would take is simply banning the account, not starting a lawsuit immediately. However, rights holders may attempt sue before or after such an event, but likely after.

    RH thinks they have the right to distribute code in this manner, and they can keep doing so until challenged in court. You can do actions in general without asking the court every time, I think the same applies here as well.

    I personally think it is a violation in a strict sense, but at the same time I don’t think it really matters too much realistically. Stream is upstream RHEL, and they are very similar, and at some points in time, should be identical. It’s also not clear what you get exactly by suing RH/IBM. The likely case is that they settle or rule to have that section removed from the ToS.



  • I know btrfs alone doesn’t replace unraid on its own, but it does replace or at least substitutes most of the raid functionality. Btrfs is extremely flexible and it’s raid features are almost unmatched in capability for running in small environments where you may need to increase or decrease the number disks in an array at will and without much limitation.

    If you want a gui to manage various linux systems, you could look into cockpit. It can manage VMs, containers and other linux systems via a unified gui. I would recommend fedora if you want to give it a go.

    But you do you. I have not really had the desire to use unraid since i already know linux and manage the system myself without many tools, but i understand most people do not know linux that well and learning is a significant time sink.
