VyOS or Opnsense (lemmy.world)

I read today about VyOS and I really like the idea and approach but I am not sure how it compares to Opnsense in terms of performance and features. I know it doesn't have a GUI, which is a bit of a bummer for me.

I have purchased a mini router PC and I was thinking to build a dedicated router and firewall on it. I also have another PC that I am planning to run as a Proxmox host and install a couple of VMs and LXC containers, as well as Home Assistant along with Omada, as I am thinking of purchasing some TP-Link AP compatible with Omada.

But would love to hear some feedback from people who used both what they think.

Keep in mind that although I am technical and have a fair understanding of networking and VLANs I am not exactly an expert in networking. Does it make sense to go into the VyOS route in that case?

The end goal is to have a dedicated network and routing for the IoT network, dedicated Wireguard, guest WiFi, etc.

I am running Bluefin immutable distro and I would like to test Niri. I found on the net that the cleanest way is to use systemd-sysext and I have managed to install Niri using the community extensions.

Now I would like to install Dank Material Shell, and it has a couple of pre-requisites and I am clueless how I can add them again with systemd-sysext.

I tried to look for additional information, but found very little on the matter. Do any of you have experience with this?

Block their service sector from the EU market. Boycott US products. And see how they will fare. It is about time we take a firm stance and show this demented idiot, that he cannot bully us.

Wireguard over IPv6 (lemmy.world)
submitted 10 months ago by filister@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Hi all, I am behind CGNAT, but my ISP router is allocating real IPv6 addresses to my devices that can be exposed. I have a Proxmox and I have installed Wireguard on an LXC container and configured it to listen to the IPv6 address.

I was wondering if I need to do something else to protect my Wireguard installation? I have exposed only the default UDP port to the outside and port scanners are not working on UDP ports as far as I know. Shall I do something else to protect my installation or the attack vector is already minimal and doesn't require further hardening? What's your opinion?

Defending human rights and condemning war crimes is now punishable.

And the saddest thing is that if she wasn't an American citizen this incident would have simply been briefly mentioned in the news without providing a name or a story.

You remember the food kitchen workers and how much noise there were around those killings. But the reality is since the conflict started at least 284 aid workers were killed and no one is talking about it: https://apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-gaza-war-palestinians-statistics-40000-7ebec13101f6d08fe10cedbf5e172dde.

Isn't the US famous for their prison for profit, where prisons are privately owned and states need to pay if there are fewer incarcerated people inside?

To me, this sounds straight from 1984.

It comes just days after Musk announced plans to cut more than 10% of its global workforce.

In a memo issued to staff Musk said there was nothing he hated more, "but it must be done".

I am speechless, are his employees and shareholders buying this ****?

Back then I read an article about how M$ is crippling the ability of other office packets to read their docx and xslx formats which are supposed to be open formats, but in reality are written in a way never to be fully integrated by competing products. More information about their pseudo open standard: https://fsfe.org/activities/msooxml/msooxml.en.html

Munich in the past have used Linux PCs for quite some time until eventually switching back to windows. Back then they were citing the same incompatibilities to open and read and display M$ office files correctly. So Microsoft is definitely abusing their position as a market leader and trying to cripple competition as much as they can.

Don't forget the "Hyperloop" in Las Vegas, which is just a tunnel where Teslas are driving people around. IMO that's the stupidest and the least efficient use of this tunnel.

The cars are not even self-driving, and mind you this is a closed system and easier to implement self-driving. So far with his self-driving copium, and robo taxis bullshit.

Apples was and is still extremely anti-competitive and anti-consumers oriented.

How many more civilians need to die for the Western democracies to start openly condemning Israel. This is making me so sick. And it shows the double standards that we have.

And I am tired of hearing that Israel has the right to defend themselves, this doesn't give them the right to cause humanitarian catastrophe, displace hundreds of thousands and kill a disproportionate number of people.
