  • I don’t know if it’s even possible anymore (heck it’s hard for me at 40), but try to put something in retirement funds. If your work as a 401k, try and contribute. If you leave the job, your money can then go to an IRA. How do you do that? Beats me - I have five or six requirement accounts, each topping out at around between $2-5k.

    Also, brush your teeth and if you grind them in your sleep - get a dentist to fit you for a mouth guard.

    Edit: wow, down votes for teeth health.

    Edit edit: reading comprehension isn’t my strong suite.




  • I’m a few months into using CachyOS on my zephyrus gaming laptop and it’s been a joy.

    I actually ran into my first issue yesterday and had to boot into the windows drive for the first time in what feels like forever - I needed a Windows only display editor program for Nextion screens.

    I tried the installer on bottles and playonlinux, But I couldn’t get the program to load. I will try again today so that if I have to load it up in the future I don’t have to switch back to Windows, but on the off chance anybody knows how to fix it I’m all ears.













  • I think that mitigation requires two things for it to work.

    1. You need to use a a Type 2 hypervisor (like Virtualbox, VMware Workstation/Fusion).
    2. That VM needs to be configured in NAT mode.

    The two primary ways you can configure a network for a local virtual machine are NAT and Bridged.

    Bridged mode places your VM effectively on the same network as your host OS, meaning that any DHCP server that exists on your network (rogue or otherwise) will give your virtual machine and IP.

    In NAT mode, the virtualization platform itself includes a DHCP server to dole out IPs, and handle the routing between your virtual machine and your host OS’s network.

    The thought process is that if you trust your laptop, the DHCP address handed out for NAT mode will not have the VPN breaking DHCP option and your VPN inside the VM will not have it’s route table screwed with.
