Equibop which is a fork of Vesktop opted for the troll face. Vesktop stopped working when I swapped desktop environments so I had to use Equibop.

Read receipts have yet to work.

Interesting, I intentionally left RCS off on my iPhone because I didn’t know if read-receipts were on or not.

The read receipts setting use to be for iMessage only and Apple’s documentation for RCS made it seem like it was always on.

Definitely not a complete FOSS setup but I decided to go the Apple route a self-hosted Homebridge for non Apple home-kit enabled devices.

Huh, while I was typing this comment I decided to read the minimum hardware requirements and turns out I only need to reserve 2 cores for the vm.

While I’m not exactly hosting proxmox on server grade hardware, I think I can spare 2 maybe 3 cores, 4 is a bit of a stretch I think given that 6 are already reserved for my headless Debian 12 vm + Docker engine.

Ive been using it with opnsense and it has a lot of built in logging and reporting.

Never did a lot of research into opnsense, from what I can see it’s a whole OS. I might consider it because I feel Proxmox (which I use currently for my host OS) isn’t getting utilized to its fullest.

Maybe I’ll go network monitoring instead of virtual environment spin-ups 🤔

I tried running unbound + PiHole however, my experience was less than ideal.

I was able to forward all DNS queries without issues however, PiHole wasn’t receiving response times from unbound which caused some of my other docker containers to bug out with timeout errors.

PiHole makes monitoring the network convenient which is kinda why I don’t wanna lose it, unbound doesn’t appear to have a web-ui natively.

I fully expect him to threaten (and execute) with military actions if Canada doesn't capitulate

Insert article 5 turning the US into a hostile country and the millions of Canadians (who coincidentally look like Americans) with their new-found American citizenship & right to bear arms.

Going to feel so liberated!

[–] ohshit604 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

spin up a second pihole docker and upgrade them separately so they can failover to the other one while upgrading.

Think I’m going to take this advice and put it in action! Thank you!

[–] ohshit604 2 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

I think something else may be wrong if it breaks for 20 minutes.

When I originally setup my PiHole many, many, many months ago when I was still learning the Docker engine I had little to no issue.

I don’t know what caused it either being a power-outage or network loss but ever since I’ve been experiencing DNS related issues (I suspect it’s NTP not syncing), some days I’ll wake up before work realizing “oh shit I have no internet access” frantically trying to fix the issue.

I think i might take the advice of other commenters here and host two PiHole servers on separate devices/stacks, just got to hope my router supports it.

Currently have nice long docker compose file that hosts my PiHole V6 container (along with a bunch of other containers) however, reason i ask this question is because whenever I go to pull an updated image and recreate the container I experience about 20 minutes of no DNS resolution which to my knowledge is due to the NTP clock being out of sync.

What’s the best way to host a DNS sinkhole/resolver that can mitigate this issue?

Was thinking of utilizing Proxmox & LXC but I suspect I’ll get the same experience.


~~Update: Turns out PiHole doesn’t support two instances, I got both of them on separate devices also set the 2nd DNS server in my routers WAN & LAN DNS settings which did in fact split DNS between both instances however, I lost access to my routers web-ui, my Traefik instance & reverse proxies died and I lost all internet access.~~

~~So, don’t do what I did.~~

Update 2: So everything I said in my first update let’s disregard that, turns out I had my router forcing all DNS to PiHole server 1 which caused my issues mentioned above.

Two servers appears to work!

I really couldn’t enjoy this game, it for some reason made me nauseous and tired.

Wanted to enjoy it, unfortunately couldn’t.

 

"Today's Liberal government announcement is as deceitful and deceptive as every other action they've taken on the firearm file. Since 2020, the Liberals have insisted that their relentless targeting of exclusively licensed gun owners has had no effect on hunting or sport shooting. This is clearly and entirely false. In fact licensed gun owners are the only group that have been targeted by everything the Liberals have done on guns.

Since 2020, the Liberals have insisted that there are innumerable replacements for the firearms they were banning. The Prime Minister himself even announced on CTV that inevitably the Liberals will have to ban some firearms that license gun owners have been using for hunting, but they can simply replace those firearms with others that are not on the list.

And as predicted, almost every year since then, they have generated lists of the firearms that Canadians have spent untold sums of their own resources replacing their banned firearms, all the while trusting the government at its word. The Liberals have gleefully and overtly enjoyed the misplaced trust of gun owners and the damage they have caused them.

The CCFR cannot adequately condemn the Liberals, the NDP, and the Bloc Quebecois for supporting this treatment of only those in our country who follow the rules to the letter. It is yet another betrayal and a black mark on Canada's history, its relationship with the government, and its relationship with the RCMP. The conduct of all the above towards law-abiding, hard-working citizens is nauseating and immoral.

It should not be overlooked that while the government is damaging the above-mentioned relationships beyond repair, gun toting criminals are still kicking in Canadian doors and letting bullets fly on Canadian streets. Liberals haven't lifted a finger to stop this.

The CCFR is laser focused on fighting these measures without end. We will not rest until these measures are repealed and those who show such contempt to society's most trusted citizens are held accountable for their actions."

Good afternoon y'all.

I recently installed Steam on a laptop running a fresh install of Debian 12 & KDE Plasma. I've done this dance numerous times on other hardware however, this time when installing games through Steam they hang at 100% Downloaded & Installed and only complete when i pause them, one occasion two games simply wouldn't install and took me a full day fighting with Steam to finish them and clear the queue.

Steam can't seem to move files between drives (note: one drive is an SSD and the other is an HDD) or uninstall files and i assumed this was a permissions issue at first however, comparing the directory permissions from the laptop to my desktop (also running Debian 12 & KDE Plasma) i see nothing out of the ordinary.

Any suggestions are appreciated - Some things I've already tried.

  • Purged steam from the system (including ~/.steam)
  • Cleared 'Download Cache' in Steam settings
  • chown & chmod (777) the common directories (~/.steam/steamapps/common)
  • Waited numerous hours assuming the HDD was ridiculously slow - moving/deleting files in the CLi shell works without issue!
  • Tried different download regions/countries

So recently I just come across Earlyoom and it has completely resolved my desktop crashing and better handles my memory, I was wondering if there is any other software that I’m missing that could potentially improve my systems resource handling?

Distro = Debian 12, KDE Plasma 5

OIC discussion & Politics Megathread (self.ca_firearms_rights)
submitted 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) by ohshit604 to c/ca_firearms_rights
 

Please post all your Gun Politics or Ban-related ideas, initiatives, comments, suggestions, news articles, and recommendations in this thread.

First and foremost, this is a Canadian Gun community, so keep it at least decently related to both of those things. Just because an election is coming up, doesnt make any and all canadian politics fair game. While these threads are typically looser about off-topic posting, there is no need for personal attacks and flamewars.


Credible sources providing new information will of course be fine to post regularily, but as time passes we may start sending new post talking about old news here. To prevent the main community being flooded with dozens of similar threads, text posts complaining about/asking about/chatting about the OIC will also likely be sent here.

This normally runs every month, but we will try having it repost a new thread every 14 days for now.
