Says to contact base to deconflict with radiation hazard. Which would suggest it isn’t nuclear radiation as that would just be contamination that isn’t under control and able to be deconflicted with. Probably a powerful radar or electromagnetic weapon.
Depends on specific machine setup and how good the backup is.
Backup requirements for /usr there are sticky bits set on some binaries. That needs to be preserved. In all cases soft links likely need to be preserved for things to work correctly on future package installs. Hard links can be problematic, but if you have a large enough drive or not that many it wont matter. Running package verification can be help after restore to make sure everything looks right. If running a Linux system with SELinux in enforcing mode (RHEL on many derivatives), then the security context will also need to be preserved BUT running a relabel will probably work if the security context was not included in backups. Sometimes running the relabel process wont work if there are files that needs a specific security context but are not listed in the security context database. Can’t provide more details because most of my experience with that is on systems we just replace (LSPP custom labeling resulted in systems that if you booted into permissive would then be unbootable, so they were just reinstalled once any debugging was done).
For /boot things can get tricky depending on the distribution, what boot manager is used, and /boot was a separate partition or not. Basically the boot manager (probably grub) needs to know how to find the files in boot so it can load the kernel. In most cases if you restore /boot and rerun the tools to update the boot manger everything will be fine. BUT some distributions, hardware setups, or dual boot configurations are more complicated, so extra work might be needed.
You didn’t mention /dev, which is all special files. These don’t need to be restored, just make sure the right processes recreate them. There are tools to do this, hopefully the packages are installed. Or boot from a rescue disk and fix it. Look up instruction for your specific distro.
More of it will display the LOG_EMERG message instead of just stopping without displaying anything.
There are some headless servers I’d prefer to just reboot, but unless actual hardware is faulty I would not be too worried about it.
On Monday, Cisco disclosed that unauthenticated attackers can exploit the IOS XE zero-day to gain full administrator privileges and take complete control over affected Cisco routers and switches remotely.
That seems to be on Cisco in this case.
Depends on environment.
Real hardware separate for a server partitions for: /home, /var, swap, sometimes /usr, sometimes /var/log/audit Depends on deployment requirements, and if a system is expected to run after filling up audit.
Real hardware for a at home desktop: /var, swap, maybe /home, or just one partition for / and one for swap.
Cloud: all one partition, put swap in a file if it is needed. Cloud images are easy to grow if it is just one partition. Cloud-init will handle that automatically with the right packages installed, no configuration needed. Swap partitions are unlikely to be the right size as they vary according to memory and memory varies according to instance/guest sizes. Swap makes auto growing root partition harder (cloud-init custom config injection required). Best practice is to size workload and instances to not need swap whenever possible.
Cause it is trash.
Media Bias doesn’t seem to have an entry for thefp.com, which is a red flag. That the website calls themselves the free press and has nothing to do with the Free Press organization, sure seems like they are trying to confuse that on purpose. Using a Rand Paul comment as a source in support of an article problematic (he’s a real life unreliable narrator and one of many idiots in congress). The current house subcommittee the article relies on has been criticized for good reason. Lots of opinion mixed in that is not commentary on the facts. Self citation isn’t the win they think it is with the other issues.
Could the article be right? Sure. Is this an article that would convince me of that? No. An article with reputation of reporting from the center, or near center, with the same or similar conclusions and the it is worth discussion. Otherwise this article was a waste of storage and time.
I think the WTA (group representing other rural providers) has a point. Likely several of the ISPs represented by the RDOF did underbid, so now they are asking for the amount of money it would really take to finish the work they bid on. Except now with rising inflation it gives them better cover to ask for more money, they still should be held accountable or at least forced to give back all the money.
Previous head of the FCC mismanaged the whole thing.
vim-gnupg. If gpg-agent is setup and you connect with ssh with X11 forwarding enableed, gpg will popup it’s passphrase entry box (even on WSL Windows 11 or Chrome OS). Easy and convenient if you have a pgp key.
Also that some of the simulation suggest superconductivity when doped and with the right crystal formation, so hopefully other research will be better.
If you just want to try to recover, PhotoRec This does require it to at least be able to power and have a raw device to look at, though it doesn’t have to be able to be mounted. More than just photos can be recovered.
Had pretty close to the same results with PhotoRec vs commercial tools on windows.
The easiest answer is that they are mistaken and misunderstood whatever they think is aliens.
Something secret that they had no need to know, so they have incomplete knowledge they are misinterpreting. It’s a code word, or words, of a project they don’t have need to know that sounds like aliens. It’s a cover story for something else they have no need to know, like a captured foreign spy satellite, foreign aircraft, foreign spacecraft, secret government spacecraft or etc.
Local cooling still global warming overall.
The collapse of the current in the model is a direct result of global warming. The solution is to act like climate change is an emergency because it is.
TL;DR: New statistical model suggests that the AMOC (including gulf stream) could collapse to the much slower pattern by 2025 to 2095. This is a century earlier than previous predictions and the researchers were concerned. There is some questions on the accuracy of the model used, and that needs more research.
Personally I don’t think we should wait for further testing to vet the model before acting. Try to do better now.
That is a good point on energy costs. Cheap solar energy is going to change the dynamics to a lot of things.
There have been ways to recycle organic waste into oil for decades. They even built a full sized plant to use turkey offal from a nearby turkey processor (initially could get it for free). Even ran demos on tire rubber or plastics. Initially cost effective when oil prices were high as they could sell the oil.
Few of problems. Up front cost is high. Oil price volotility and the drop in oil prices made it uneconomic. Coupled with needing to pay for the turkey offal (someone else started paying the processor for it), killed the plant being fully self funded.
Since then refinements in the process, or closely related ones, keep being developed without being able to overcome the economics. These processes can recycle from just about anything organic, including plastics, to whatever oil feedstock you want. Plastic as good as virgin plastics, pharmaceuticals, or whatever oil you want. Still the economics don’t work when oil is cheap and new oils societal costs are externalized.
Yes India continues to buy sanctioned oil.
The bigger deal is buying it in the yuan. That could have far reaching changes to the global economy. Right now the world’s reserve currency is the US dollar because the vast majority of oil is bought with them. If enough oil is bought in a different currency, that has the potential to shift the world’s reserve currency to whatever is used. Whoever’s currency is used as the world’s reserve currency will get a lot of power.
I responded to only one part:
GPL stands
GPL might be violated with what they are doing, so people are pissed about it all and calling RedHat names. When IBM bought RedHat some people predicted doom, the end of open source, that RedHat is now destroyed, etc., etc. Probably some of is those same people coming back out and yelling “TOLD YOU SO!”. They are just stirring the pot to make themselves feel better. The sky is not falling for open source, things are just changing. If the GPL is being violated it will be figured out and fixed, just might take awhile.
Unfortunately I didn’t save the links, like I really wish I had. Alma, Rocky, and Lemmy posts have linked to them. I’ve been reading up on this since last week as it could affect my job and I’ll need to provide my profession recommendations at some point. Right now my advice is to wait and see, but be prepared.
