On my machine at least man openssl
shows that -k
is for specifying the password you want to derive the key from, so in that case I think you are literally using the string /etc/ssl/private/etcBackup.key
as the password. I think the flag you want is -kfile
.
You can verify this by running the command in strace
and seeing that there is no openat
call for the file passed to -k
.
Edit: metiulekm@sh.itjust.works beat me to it while I was writing out my answer :)
Ah yeah I don’t know how I would do that easily on a phone. Do those in my example above render for you? You should probably be able to just copy/paste them on a phone if they do.
I can’t find a keyboard with them, or a copy/pastable line where they’ve been typed
Maybe use combining diacritical marks?
I’m using 0x326 (Combining Comma Below), but you may need the CGJ in there to render correctly in all contexts
e.g.
Foo!̦ Bar?̦
Edit: Combining grapheme joiner, not zero width joiner
I hate that Google is exerting even more control on the internet with their TLD, but I don’t really think this attack is made all that much worse with .zip TLD. I can already bury a .com
in a long URL and end it in .zip just fine like so:
https://github.com∕foo∕bar∕baz@example.com/foo/bar/baz.zip
Or even use a subdomain to remove the @:
https://github.com∕foo∕bar∕baz.example.com/foo/bar/baz.zip
The truth is most people don’t look much at URLs outside of a domain to verify its authenticity, at which point the .zip
TLD does not do much more harm than existing domains do.
For mitigation, Firefox already doesn’t display the username portion of the URL on hover of a link and URL-encodes it if copy-pasted into the url bar. It also displays the punycode representation when hovering or navigating to the second example.
Edit: looks like lemmy now replaces 0x2215
which is a character that looks like forward slash with an actual forward slash, so my comment is a bit more confusing. For clarity, the slashes before example.com
in the above urls were 0x2215
and not “/”.
Definitely agree, but your link is protected by cloudflare (yet another centralized service destroying the internet) and therefore I’m unable to get through because I have privacy.resistFingerprinting
enabled on my browser so cloudflare is unable to determine I’m human I suppose.
I despire youtube and it’s monopoly, and I think it get’s an appropriate amount of hate on here and HN, but what confuses me to no end are the people who complain about youtube turn right around and constantly recommend cloudflare. Can someone explain what I am missing?
That’s wild, I’ve never seen an upside down port.
I agree reversibility is better and am happy usb c will finally kill this meme.
I would have more sympathy for Youtube if 1. it wasn’t the de-facto standard where essentially all video media gets uploaded to (which Youtube itself has done everything in its power to make happen) and 2. the company that owned it didn’t also own the most popular phone OS, most popular search engine, most popular email provider, most popular ad network, most popular maps, most popular online office suite, most popular airline booking, 2nd most popular cloud hosting… The list goes on
Until a federated solution like peertube gains more traction I have no problem paying content creators directly via patreon, and do everything in my power to not pay Google a dime. Trust me, they can afford it just fine.
Yeah that’s fair. But I feel like I’ve seen these “USB superposition” memes since before IoT was even a thing.
Can someone explain to me why I keep reading about people having problems plugging in USB A connectors upside down? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. Per the spec, the holes always go up. They indicate the correct way to plug in the port. Not only that, but the printed logo on the connector also always goes up.
The only time this is SLIGHTLY confusing is if you have a desktop tower where the motherboard is essentially mounted sideways, but for that case it just takes an extra second to think which way is “up” from the perspective of the motherboard.
And before anyone says “who reads the spec?”, it feels like I subconsciously knew this for something like a decade before I even knew what a spec was.
Yes, you are correct in that a single individual’s action will make no difference, just like your single vote makes no difference either. However if everyone does their part it can make a massive difference.
While your individual contribution makes no difference, you still should try to do your part. Yes, change takes work and a bit of sacrifice. Just like how it takes time out of your day to do research on candidates and go to the polls.
If you don’t do the work, it doesn’t make you smart or clever, it just makes you an asshole taking advantage of others.
If I super heat a metal and it turns visibly red what is happening? Was it already emitting infrared and as it gets hotter the frequency shifts up? Or is it still emitting infrared but has a wider band of frequencies it is emitting as well (i.e. is it emitting frequencies below infrared as well as visible red)?
Yeah I’ve played with git-issue and agree it’s not ideal. Have you checked out Sourcehut? It is entirely email based but with some pretty great tooling around it to make it more accessible.
I agree that in a perfect world we have a separate open protocol for all of the non-repository related workflows/data, that has all the features we need. But the nice thing about email is it’s decentralized, and everyone already has it. And in my opinion, with the right tooling built around it, it can get pretty close to the same quality of life as a github PR, but also degrade gracefully without it.
I just tried subscribing to !sircmpwn@spacepub.space, but it’s empty despite the peer tube channel having many videos. Any idea what’s going on?
The problem isn’t the version control itself. Obviously git continues to function and I can commit things offline in a plane. What I can’t do is create/review PRs or read/open issues. That’s easy to brush off, but the most egregious thing is the fact that this used to be federated over email!
All we needed was more user-friendly tooling to make it easier for new college grads to start contributing to FLOSS, but instead of better email based tooling we got the centralized trash that github is today.
There’s no way of knowing, which is the whole problem with their model and why a lot of us self host things in the first place. Even if they super duper promise not to use the data, they could be lying. And if they are actually true to their word today, that could change tomorrow.
I haven’t used any flatpacks, mostly because they don’t seem to have a good solution for running terminal programs. (Also I don’t like that the application developer chooses the permissions to expose rather than the user.
However, I have been using bubblewrap which is what flatpack uses under the hood to sandbox. This allows me to run both gui and non-gui programs, and I have the control of exposing the minimum required permissions that I’m comfortable giving an untrusted piece of software.
I seem to be in the minority here but I personally prefer using and
#
to denote root. I like this because not everyone uses sudo and might not even have it installed.
That being said, if you already have other commands that are using sudo -u ...
to run commands as a different user then it might be best to just be consistent and prefix everything with it, but if there is only a few of those maybe a cp foo bar && chown www-data bar
is an alternative.
it has a nice working sync of connection profiles (even of ssh keys…encrypted!)
Sorry, but what on earth does this have to do with a terminal emulator? Something like this makes way more sense as a separate tool. It’s like if I was making a decision of what video player to use because it can sync my browser bookmarks.
It is likely not worth your effort as whatever you come up with will likely result in discord deactivating your account for breaking their ToS, or them breaking their API forcing you to constantly play catch-up.
This is why open communication protocols are so important. Email is still as ubiquitous as it is because it’s a protocol, not an API.
I personally think it would be less overall effort to get your friends to switch to an open protocol like matrix, or XMPP than it would playing cat and mouse with proprietary APIs. But you do you, I wish you the best of luck!
