Thank you! I don’t mind buying books that are useful, work pays for that ;-)

As much as possible, yes


You mentioned a book though… Now i’m curious ;-)


The reason i chose Step CA over openSSL is because with step CA you can automate certificate renewal without any manual intervention. I don’t know how that would work with openSSL except some heavy scripting?


Given with whats happening elsewhere in the world, how people “over there” think about climate change, i sometimes think we’ll just kill off humanity.
And thats okay. The world will keep spinning. A new apex species will arise. Hopefully they will spend their time and energy better then the current species. Maybe they even find ways to get off this planet before it’s beeing eaten by the sun. We certainly won’t.
Ahhh the darkness of beeing me :)
No. But you seem to be. I think you have a weird sense of humor.


If you want everything on your local lan to have SSL, look into Step CA. Its not completely beginners friendly, but if you’re serious about selfhosting you will manage to set it up :) Caddy works with it also, and their examples are very helpful.
And how does this work when you expect a binary of someone else’s package in a certain location?
Are you trolling or what?


I simply don’t argue anymore. I choose my discussion partners wisely.


Less drama, i suppose.


I used to be a caregiver to both my parents, but i could never see myself share my feelings with a robot. After all was said and done, i really needed that human connection, not something cold and computerized.


What you mentioned is exactly why i didn’t like him. But i also don’t support the death penalty, and i firmly believe in due process. He got the death penalty without a fair trial. For me it’s as simple as that. And that’s not how democracy works in my book.
He was a conservative right wing political activist, but some people are comparing him to Mussolini even. Like WTF! And just because he didn’t believe in empathy doesn’t mean i shouldn’t either.
Fo i think the world is better without certain people? Sure! Do i think assasinating them is the way to go? No.
And yeah, i’m a gay man. I’m well aware of his views about that. I choose to be civilized though.


You’re not that good at guessing. I’m a gay male.
As others have said, Linux Security is a very broad topic. But the main thing is keeping your system updated, only install packages from your distro’s repositories, install a firewall and don’t install anything you don’t need should go a long way :)
For example, i use Alpine Linux as a desktop OS. This means i only install packages through apk, from the Alpine repositories. I run apk update and apk upgrade commands every friday. I use Flathub for most desktop software which i also update weekly. (To be even more secure, only install verified flatpak’s). my firewall has no incoming ports open (really not needed on my desktop). And i keep myself updated with the latest news regarding Alpine Linux, and Linux in general. So i am aware of most vulnerabilities as they are published. This is a pretty secure system.
Later on if you want even more security you can start following the CIS guidelines for your favorite distro, but the above should be a good start.
But good security is not just jeeping your system updated, it also means you have good backups in place, in case randsomware hits your system. And then there’s also the monitoring of your system for suspicious behaviour :) But these are far more advanced topics!


Well yes, i suppose in your brain they are. Thankfully, in the real world things are different. Good day to you.


Fair enough. I suppose i should call myself “center”. Neither left nor right.


In what world is celebrating someone’s assasination the same as not giving a fuck about someone’s opinion?
No wait… don’t answer that. I don’t even care how your weird brain works.


That goes both ways, don’t worry.
I wonder how life is for them. I see everything in images, wether someone’s talking, or even if i’m reading.
