someone call James alsup

@Rick Strongly advise you just use your phone instead. Not worth the risk. A lot of workplaces automatically block or flag VPN/tunneling sites.

2018-07-01 14:21:39 UTC  

oh. i no longer do that at work. just wonder for private life.

2018-07-01 14:22:59 UTC  

also. a few months ago, there was a link to an article on how to avoid being doxxed. does anyone still have it?

@Rick A good VPN is one that allows payment in bitcoin, has many servers (countries) available, and if you're into such a thing...allows torrent traffic.

2018-07-16 04:51:13 UTC  

Another layer of protection is having a dedicated browser installation *only* for use with the VPN.

2018-07-16 04:52:12 UTC  

If privacy is your goal: basically, try to avoid being digitally "fingerprinted" at your real location with your online accounts.

2018-07-16 04:53:35 UTC  

For instance, if I switch over to VPN and keep using the same browser, all those cookies with login information and tracking (Google, anyone?) still persist.

Does anyone have any good recommendations for a quiet high capacity sump pump? I want to upgrade before I sink a bunch of money into finishing my basement.

2018-07-20 03:19:15 UTC  

My current pump is a 1/2hp and it barely keeps up on rainy days. I also already have a water powered emergency backup but I'd rather not have that run unless it has to.

2018-07-20 03:23:35 UTC  

Also it definitely occurs to me that this probably isn't the right channel to ask this question in but we don't have a plumbing channel.

Lol I was checking our zimbra logs one day and noticed a static IP constantly deauthing

2018-08-06 00:00:04 UTC  

It was out of china but wasnt from one of our offices and was trying to login under generic user names, so I blacklisted it on our gateway

2018-08-06 00:00:26 UTC  

Its been 6 days and the bot on whoevers foreign server has tried to auth in to our zimbra server over 10k times

2018-08-06 00:02:03 UTC  

@Deleted User haha. Good thing you're there.

2018-08-06 00:03:59 UTC  

yeah lol, I've also noticed there are a lot of chinese command and control servers being hosted out of israel

2018-08-06 00:04:25 UTC  

usually they appear to just be servers that the israelis havent apparently checked in a while and theres ching chong gibberish that comes back whenever you request data from one of their services

2018-08-06 00:06:12 UTC  

I set up VPSes on DO sometime, and almost immediately when they start they get pummeled by URL and port scanners from who knows where. It's not a major problem as long as your username/password isn't admin/admin

2018-08-06 00:07:04 UTC  

you can pcap with something like pfring if you have a ton of data. Usually I sniff the incoming traffic and filter for all of our site gateway IPs or NAT address and then blacklist almost everything else if its outside of the US

2018-08-06 00:09:45 UTC  

Yeah depending on the Use case I have different types of auth, but usually it's just ssl+basic auth behind an Apache proxy for services and UFW for ports I don't want open

2018-08-06 00:10:20 UTC  

have you ever used nginx?

2018-08-06 00:10:48 UTC  

Not really, I know it's popular but I always use Apache

2018-08-06 00:11:34 UTC  

yeah the companies at the end of its static IP range but I need 3 new services up. Im working on a reverse proxy with nginx for bitbucket, confluence, jira and maybe an ovpn AS for a subdomain. Learning it on the fly and getting it fully functional is a bit of handful with the other side projects I have going.

2018-08-06 00:11:56 UTC  

also working on starting an on prem voip service, but you have to be way too smart to do it straight from asterisk

2018-08-10 17:31:28 UTC  

Is there a way to track clicks on third-party sites?

2018-09-07 22:06:07 UTC  

<@&435155896780324864> How do you (git) version control crontab files and configuration files in /etc on Linux/Unix systems?

2018-09-07 22:06:42 UTC  

lmao dude idfk why do I have the tech tag

2018-09-07 22:07:17 UTC  

@John O - You probably contributed to something in the channel at some point, I'll remove it from your roles.

2018-09-07 22:07:27 UTC  

Thanks man

2018-09-07 22:39:47 UTC  

@John O - needs his electrician tag haha

2018-09-07 23:37:13 UTC  

@RevStench he has it!

2018-09-07 23:51:28 UTC  

Weird, I don't see it?

2018-09-07 23:57:02 UTC  

@RevStench on mobile hold your finger on his username, on computer hover the mouse on his username. You have the electrician role too by the way. You have a lot of roles.

2018-09-08 00:12:36 UTC  

Crazy, I can see everyone else's tags. But ok, you're the man @ThisIsChris, well not THE man😂

2018-09-24 01:51:34 UTC  

Anyone here have formal training in GIS? I am going to have some education grant money left over next semester after I get my bachelors and I think getting some kind of GIS cert or training would be my best bang for buck economically.
