However, you’d be liable for the losses due to fraud in this scenario

My CI runner just calls make targets, that can easily be run locally if needed.

Looks nice. Great work. FYI, the gist link 404s under “Can I reach a container by name from my Mac?”.

Wouldn’t a view count with range filtering provide the best flexibility?

How about coding an emacs macro with your agent?

Yet another reason to also perform ad blocking at the network level (e.g. DNS). I’ve found AdGuard Home very easy to maintain. Using Firefox and Orion browsers too.

They also double as a nice and cheap server rack!

With a birth rate or 1.29, they will need to accept immigrants or face the consequences of a declining population. My guess is that in the end, the next generation of old folk will want taking care of.

Where can I find more information on this? A web search didn’t reveal much for me.

Do you think the IDF should put their soldiers at risk of attack from tunnel dwellers and snipers?

Jizyah wasn’t at the same rate as zakat and its rate wasn’t uniform. It was often used to humiliate, reminding non Muslims of their subordinate status under Islamic law

DNA tests aren’t banned in Israel.

This isn’t accurate. The majority of Jews in Israel are Mizrahi. The vast majority of them left the Muslim-majority countries during the Arab–Israeli conflict, in what is known as the Jewish exodus from Arab and Muslim countries.

I deplore the “lunatic” and also support any attempts of liberating the entire Middle East from the deplorable Iranian regime. So many of the problems of this region can be traced back to them.

I set up a Debian vps, installed Tailscale with ufw and fail2ban. I use this as my exit node. Costing around 2 euros per month. No blocking so far.

It doesn’t have to be. I have a proxmox homelab, running x86 openwrt in a VM. It has many other services running including home assistant. It idles at 3% CPU and consumes around 5w. I’m using a Levono thinkcentre.

Isn’t there separation of the control and data planes? I don’t think Tailscale get to see any of your network traffic.

As a fellow OpenWRT user who tried many DNS solutions including unbound, also consider NextDNS. They are pretty awesome.
