I have three Ethernet interfaces, namely eth[0...2]. eth0 is connected to my VPN router and eth1 and eth2 are connected to my public facing router. eth0 is the standard interface that I normally let my Linux instance use. I now want to set up a container that hijacks (makes unavailable to the host) eth1 or eth2 in order to run various services that need to be reachable from WAN through a Wireguard tunnel.

I am aware that the man pages for systemd-nspawn say that it is primarily meant to be a test environment and not a secure container. Does anybody have experience with and/or opinions on this? Should I just learn how to use Docker?

For now, I am only asking about any potential security implications, since I don't understand how container security works "under the hood". The network portion of the setup would be something like:

Enabling forwarding kernel parameters on the host

Booting the container with systemd-nspawn -b -D [wherever/I/put/the/container] --network-interface=[eth1 or 2]

Then, managing the container's network with networkd config files, including enabling IPForward and IPMasquerade

Then, configuring wireguard according their official guides or, for instance, the Arch wiki.

Any and all input would be appreciated! 😊

Not the quite 2000’s, but I hope you enjoy this ride, as much as you enjoy this accent. 😊

Edit: seems to be back up

Edit2: some servers still seem to have DNS related problems, now on smartphone too. At least one application wasn't able to connect to the internet, reporting inability to resolve domain names.

I'm experiencing problems on my Linux PC. Starting about 50 minutes ago, some websites cannot be reached, my package manager cannot connect to its mirrors and ping doesn't resolve domain names into IP addresses. Some people of Reddit seem to be reporting similar issues.

How about people here?

I just finished setting up the hardware infrastructure to start hosting but I cannot find any specific information in the official documentation on how to set up a public Invidious instance. I understand the guide as far as just hosting an instance and watching YouTube through that goes, but how do I, for instance, give it a publicly searchable domain name that - in the best of worlds - is listed on Invidious' website?

I assume there is a better way than to start posting my instance's IP address throughout any forums that I might be active on?

...there is a way? What possible application/need would make this necessary/feasible? Sure, my M.2 drives run hot, especially when doing continuous I/O for prolonged periods, but... Maybe I'm just inexperienced. (:

Edit: the link might appear... Fishy? So I added an image.

I've always wondered whether network interfaces that have these flashing lights flash as a gimmick or do they actually indicate the flow of traffic? Perhaps one flash per packet in or out? I wish I could remember what my call up modem looked like to make a historical comparison too.

Instead of just cooling my one router, I thought I'd share the love with some other pieces of equipment too. I bought three older Noctua fans: https://www.noctua.at/en/products/nf-s12b-redux-700/specifications

I also bought a somewhat more powerful DC adapter (max capacity 27 Watts instead of 3.6), tied it all together, and now I'll shut up for good.

Thank you all! :)

This is a live performance - albeit in a very controlled environment.

From the About section:

A microphone and a white studio. And 1 rule. You've got 1 TAKE. Perform anything you like. Show us everything you've got for that 1 moment. THE FIRST TAKE

This song also happens to be the opening theme for the Japanese animated show Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba. I watched an episode and got bored, but I absolutely fell in love with Aimer. I especially recommend her album Open a Door from 2023.

Bought this horn today at an antique shop and I'm trying to find out when it was made, by whom and how/with what materials? I know that the metal parts are made of tin because these are sometimes called "tin horns". There are no initials or any readable or otherwise discernable engravings on the horn or on the tin parts. A reverse image search lead me to an old auction that was concluded a while ago: https://www.tradera.com/item/341133/705890164/dryckeshorn-cornucopia-tenn-och-horn-norge

The term "Cornucopia" didn't help either and mine is missing a cap whose underside probably would have provided me some information.

Anyway, the pattern and engravings on the tin parts are about the same, but the one from the auction is missing the hind leg that mine has. Two more pictures:

UPDATE: This item on Etsy is similar too. And they say it's Norwegian from the 1950's. https://www.etsy.com/listing/4414888836/norwegian-tinn-pewter-drinking-horn-with

Thank you so much for all the great advice! What a nice community! :)

I pushed out the pins from the 4-pin connector using a SIM tool:

I bought a 12V DC power supply with adjustable voltage (3~12) so that I can adjust the fan speed to my liking (noise, temps). The power supply came with a bipolar terminal. How in the world could I be this lucky. No need to carve any wires here (although it would have been nice to finally learn how to do that too...):

I put back the sense and control pins into the connector in order to avoid accidental shorts and what not. I have no idea why ground goes into the negative node, but it was the only plausible configuration, since the power simply has to come from the positive node, according to conventional current:

And voila! I have no idea why I'm unable to upload the GIF of my fan spinning, so you'll have to take my word for it.

Thanks again!
