Don’t expose anything from your local network to the internet (unless you want multiple new sysadmins in your house). Try tailscale instead.
Anyone knows if there is any project for a modular NAS? Have been looked into it for a while but without success
WannaCry targeted hospitals, businesses and similar machines.
WannaCry targeted everything with SMB exposed, blindly.
Also, you should read more about security through obscurity, the fact that “no one will target you because you are a low-value target” is a false sense of security.
I believe the risk of running outdated software is super inflated and mediatic, 99% of people would be absolutely fine running a version of Android from 3 years ago or Windows 8.
That’s the same thing people running windows XP on internet were thinking in 2017.
Then WannaCry arrived and they got their data encrypted :)
Perhaps images, video, font etc. rendering could be compromised?
Yes, it already happen in the past. Also the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth stack got exploited, like multiple kernel drivers.
But it shouldn’t be a matter of “in the past was X exploited?” but more on having a correct security posture.
Honestly if you are arguing about wasting a “perfectly working phone” you should blame it on the vendor, especially Android devices vendors have this let’s say “defect” of dropping the support after 4/5 years.
Also not going to talk about custom ROMs (with the super rare exclusion of some) managed by god knows who, without any security team behind.
Since even the NFC and Cellular Network stack got vulnerabilities the only way you would consider an old phone “safe” to use is just turning it into the equivalent of a local ARM server.
Also pretty fun seeing the replies in the original post talking about how Google Play store shouldn’t have malware on it.
Do anyone knows if it support local-only without joining the p2p network?
Ahaha I had this exact same experience. Locked out because bitwarden didn’t get the code correctly. “Luckily” the jwt token never expires so I was able to log back in without the 2FA.
I was thinking about that just today, I have something like 30+ services running on a single compose file and maintenance is slowly becoming hard. Probably moving to multiple compose file.
Thanks. I have never seen the last thing, what the numbers indicates?
What am I looking at?
Ye let’s go back to a single computer filling an entire room and printing output on paper
Another good thing is that you can find good models for cheap, that is not at all a bad thing in the current market.
Yesterday I bought a 2020 X13, doesn’t seem so bad honestly
Soon, people will join the strange and buggy world of YouTube alternative frontends
Take a look at my answer there. It was my fault apparently.
TL;DR: I set the image channel icon to /etc/paswd and forgot about it, people saw a suspicious call and panicked, sorry.
Ye you are right but I was talking of 3D enclosures where you can put a zimaboard or whatever mini pc.
