Wireguard.

Dunno if Cloudflare does effective auth for the tunnel or if you have to set that up yourself, but I don’t bother trying to expose services to the internet in any way because some of this stuff was just never designed for proper web security (cough Jellyfin).

It’s still worth setting up a wildcard cert with ACME so you get nice https and a real domain.

The thing that kicked off 2007 was that CDOs ended being largely made up of crappy mortgage bonds which caused their massive trillions in debt “value” to dissappear when the underlying bonds failed which was tied to people not paying their mortgage on crappy adjustable mortgage loans.

After getting bailed out with a shit ton of tax money, the banks agreed not to repeat the same mistake by ensuring their trillions of debt trading doesn’t depend on a single point of failure, so they’ve diversified it across multiple markets (like how a CDO was otherwise supposed to work)

This type of warning shows up every now and then because the vulnerability is still there (since nothing really changed), but its much harder to knock it down without causing some type of collapse in multiple areas first.

Right now, I think its estimated that private credit makes up about 40% of their investments into the AI boom, which is 1 trillion dollars exact. That’s proportionally less than what CDOs were with mortgage bonds, but it’s still entirely possible that a couple of hits in some businesses sectors could collapse the system.

Iran actually succeeded in affecting multiple supply chains due to their strait closure, including AI, so if they continue on that path it might actually happen.

I’m hoping this insane future booked shortage causes the consumer electronics industry to crash due to lack of parts which in turn should cause the AI industry to crash when no one is buying new tech nor fat AI subscriptions.

It already has to be affecting small to medium businesses significantly when even laptop procurement has tripled in price and you’re spending a ton of money for enterprise AI access.

Tor is the only one that has that type of association because it’s the biggest, so it always gets mentioned in the media.

Most people don’t even know that there are other darknets like i2p.

On top of that, current Tor actually has pretty good latency and connection speeds when not on a bridge. Last time I tried it out, I was getting 80Mbps up/down. Several users here even regularly or exclusively access lemmy with Tor.

I think i2p should actually make an effort to promote higher base bandwidth sharing out of box because it scales easily since its completely decentralized and everyone is a node, unlike Tor. It could easily become more user friendly if nodes weren’t starting off at like 128kbps speeds.

Plus like the other reply mentioned, you have to go out of your way to find the criminal stuff on darknets. Most users would probably be accessing clearnet stuff anyway, and .onion addresses on clearnet sites that have dedicated onion addresses like duckduckgo or some social media platforms.

I’m still mad we lost sport sedans for this EPA bs.

Everything is a crossover or SUV to gg ez the emission laws because of the weight class.

Random 5 seater SUV will be producing more emissions than a WRX or Evo Lancer.

While Toyota and Honda at least have an acclaimed history in low cost and efficient vehicles, Ford is literally 1/3rd the the reason the US doesn’t manufacture sedans anymore, with the other 2/3rds being GM and Chrysler.

I actually witnesses them layoff their entire sedan division in real time when they announced the end of the fusion. I’m pretty sure it was mostly liquidated by the time covid hit.

They bought into the colonial system from their very existence. Most of the GCC started out as British backed insurgents against the Ottman empire.

Once they kicked the Ottomans out, they all established hard monarchies to solidify political power, and outsourced their security to the British, who took immediate advantage of the massive oil reserves discovered in the region.

Post WWII, after the British empire collapsed, they transitioned to the US under the same deal.

They make trillions of dollars through oil sold only in USD, which they reinvest into the US economy. The US gets to dictate their foreign policy and use them however they please in exchange.

The benefactors are exclusively the royal families and their friends, which is why KSA and UAE are notorious for human trafficking and exploited foreign labor because they spend none of that money on actually developing their nation’s societies.

They had multiple opportunities not to enter such an exploitable system, but they chose not to, with the grand exception being Iran, which was the only successful overthrow of a US/UK imposed government.

Yeah honestly I look kinda dumb in retrospect lol. I forgot even the Houthis manged to constrict the red sea with an order of magnitude less munitions.

Even better, they even blew up some GCC oil refineries with massive economic effect.

It only cost the livelihood of 260 million people, but the ISI has successfully joined hands with Mossad to put Trump on their payroll. And only for the purpose of publicly demeaning India /s

I’ve been trialing Vaultwarden for a while and while I do like the server sync setup and clean web access, the Bitwarden browser plugin is just okay despite being an “enterprise” solution. It misses probably about 20% of websites when creating a new account, forcing you to grab the password from the generator history and make a new entry manually.

KeepassXC is much better in that regard, and it’s almost as good as the default credential handler of Firefox, and it lets you set up a bunch of custom stuff to extend the functionality if you want. Plus it has some neat kbdx options aside from AES256.

Only downside is syncing, which I’m debating how I’ll deal with something better than syncthing on android (protocol is great, android makes it a PITA to have a background process if its not Google spyware).

Israel was an insane ethnostate movement long before they even gained independence. There’s a reason why an overwhelming majority of former colonial states criticized Israel’s existence during its very inception.

Had the Zionist movement never taken off, Mandatory Palestine would probably have just become a regular old state like Lebanon or Jordan, Lebanon even has a pretty hefty Christian population right after Muslims, yet you don’t see them in some constant genocidal warfare campaign against each other.

Even weirder, Judaism itself was against the idea of forming a Jewish state without a Messiah for thousands of years, but at some point the radical branch became the overwhelming majority. Orthodox Jews are completely outnumbered by their Zionist counterparts which have transformed Judaism into a complete ethnic superiority cult akin to the Aryan superiority of the Nazis. You have to be born a Jew, you can’t just join because you want to (unless you dedicate your entire life into it, and still with caveats).

You’ll see thousands of comments like “Anti-Israel is not Antisemitism”, but at some point you need to address the elephant in the room. The current mainstream “Judaism” is very much an ethnic supremacy group by design. You can’t effectively criticize Israel without pointing out that its actions are overwhelmingly supported by their citizens because of their religion. Everything they do in their eyes is completely justified because they view everyone not in their ethnic group as subhuman.

This jackass thinks he accomplished the impossible by offering up PAF as a security service and inviting people to a hotel for negotiations which everyone already knew would fail.

He also spent his entire career shanking Pakistan and pummleing it into the ground in literally every aspect which includes hundreds of assasinations, hundreds of thousands of arrests, and Infinite torture to anyone who dares to speak the truth.

Oh and he promoted himself to the lifetime FM position for hiding in a bunker while the PAF did his job for him in 2025 with the skirmish with India.

Most ludicrous crap were their comments and cries of being “neutral” while hundreds of aircraft were actively taking off and landing from their US bases lol. Someone on lemmy was even claiming that Iran shouldn’t have attacked the GCC because they were “nominally neutral” lol.

Iran did what no country has effectively done before; they kicked the American empire in the nuts.

Every country and their mom that bought into the US hegemony is suddenly facing the sharp consequences of an adversary whose original “mistake” was overthrowing its own US backed regime.

Half the UN is calling Iran daily to put on a permanent ceasfire, but now they have zero reason to after crippling the petroleum supply line for only like four and a half weeks.

The temp ceasfire expires in 2 days, and I fully expect the strait to close again for a long time as the fighting resumes.

It’s a TikTok trend, Batman

Hey I just want to let you know that my user tag that I put on your account a couple of weeks ago continues to prove itself lol

Pakistan literally sold them the uranium enrichment technology bruh.

Even ignoring the ridiculousness of this comment, they got their jumpstart thanks to their immediate neighbor.

I’m starting to think this whole setup was just a move by Pakistan to get KSA to pay off their loans in exchange for PAF’s pilots and fighters lol: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/4/11/pakistan-sends-fighter-jets-to-saudi-arabia-amid-fragile-us-iran-ceasefire

Iran and US were already aware of eachother’s demands, I don’t think they had any high hopes for a successful negotiation, especially since the contending point was Israel following through.

They even made up marketing fanfare for it like this was some kinda special convention and not literally a heated negotiation over an active war: https://www.reddit.com/r/policymarket/comments/1shoo63/the_world_is_watching_and_the_world_is_hopeful/

I said it as a half joke, but I think Iran should swap their missile tech with NK for fuel enrichment.

NK, Iran, and Libya allegedly got their initial enrichment tech from Pakistan. Only NK was able to successfully follow through, and they too allegedly swapped their missile tech for the cylinders lol.

While I’m glad there seems to be genuine development behind these peace talks, I’m also personally disappointed watching Shebaz Sharif and Asmin Munir get recognized for doing literally anything of value.

The PM is from a long family history of corrupt PMLN members who got rich off of strangling Pakistan’s economy and investing their illegal earning abroad.

And the FM (Field Marshal, not foreign minister) promoted himself to Field Marshal after getting the PAF to do all the actual military work last year while he spent his resources cracking down on the public and placing his photo on every poster in the country.

Oh and he had a ton of people assasinated, jailed, tortured, “disappeared”, and “software updated” for supporting the previous PM who has been in jail since 2023 under falsified corruption charges.

They’re already acting like this is some grand slam success for doing nothing but forwarding messages between Iran and the USA, all whilst technically being at war with Afghanistan only because Trump demanded revenge after the Taliban refused to give access to the Bagram Airfield again.
