I’m waiting for the Proxmox NixOS project to take off. I like the (network) seperability.

Yep, no leak.

Laughs in Proxmox + NixOS

(yes I know not for every usecase)

In case RPG includes JRPG for you: Both Nier:Automata and Nier:Replicant play fantastic in the deck, and those games are far more enjoyable with a controller instead of keyboard and mouse

Good idea. I get a number of CORS errors - but I also get them without the VPN, so I don’t think that’s it.

The idea that CR doesn’t block me, their content hipster does though - that might have merit. Hm. I have noticed that some sites require me to solve the Cloudflare Captcha. So maybe that happens when requesting the page/stream, and then since I don’t (can’t) solve it, nothing happens?

Do you have an idea how I could verify this? 😅

Alright, this is weird. I ran tcpdump on the server, and checked both physical and wg0 interface. For things like youtube, it’s a constant stream of packets coming in on the physical interface, then immediately being relayed through wg0 - just as it should be.

But for Crunchyroll, there’s… Nothing. I get an initial burst of packets when opening the site containing the video I want to stream, and then packets just stop coming in once the page itself has fully loaded.

Hi,

no, sorry :(

I really don’t think it’s DNS (famous last words, I know)

I don’t have accounts on any other streaming services 😅 YouTube works, though

Do you have a suggestion how to eliminate this as a possibility?

Ah, alright. Yes, I’ve just double checked. The server end of the tunnel provides a dns server, and the client is configured to use that as its only dns server.

I’m able to resolve DNS requests from the device. But maybe I’m misunderstanding your question? 😅

Oh wow, this is literally what I’ve been waiting for.

Edit: OK, it’s not quite there yet.

Funny. I just had to downgrade my kernel from 6.8.9 to 6.1 for my main game to work. So much for bleeding edge… 😅

(Not on Arch btw, but still applies)

Sioyek also does this

Highly recommend, esp. if you like using vim keybinds (you abviously don’t have to, but IMO it’s a fantastic feature)

• Arch
• Arch
• Ubuntu Pro

If you’re not using a standard DE (Gnome, KDE,…) but rather something like i3, Hyprland,… then I highly recommend starting with home-manager on whatever distro you’re currently on. Once you’re happy with that setup, it’s really easy to add the “rest of the system” without risking a giant headache because your desktop still needs to be configured

Isn’t the --remote-host missing here? (Since you’re using --remote-sudo?)

Oh, absolutely. In case it wasn’t clear, I’m against chatcontrol.

They don’t actually have to enforce that though. Rather, it’s a neat trick: if you do use encrypted chats, well, you’re purposefully doing something illegal! To hide information, no less! That surely means you have more to hide, and since you’ve already broken a law, let’s investigate further!

To be clear: I’m not saying this is the intended effect. But it is a frighteningly possible one. Anyone who has reason to hide their communication (regime critical activists, opposition politicians, investigative journalists,…) either have to

• accept that their communication will be scanned, making it trivial to spy on them and use that information (legally, no less!) to hinder/stop them, or
• do something illegal, giving pretext for hindering/stopping them since they’ve now committed a crime

Why not just use home-manager on arch?

Didn’t know about this, but sounds like a good cause.

Is there any legal risk involved with this? Is it recommended to run behind a VPN?
