I'm old, "Unused RAM is wasted RAM" goes against my philosophy. Back in my days, a professor said in class: you want your OS as light as possible, so the more free resources you have, the faster Quake will run (by the…
pihole is based on glibc, uses GNU utils and being based in Debian probably it's not compiled to optimize space. OpenWRT is based on musl, uses busybox, it is space contrained and size matters. Motorbike analogy, it's…
Hey, I think this is important, Flint 3 relies on a Qualcomm chipset, so, at least some weeks ago, no vanilla OpenWRT was available for it (Qualcomm kernel). On the other hand, if you can live with Wifi 6 and only…
Well, it grew up really well but that was "geologically easy". Madrid lies over a granitic floor, tunneling there is easier and faster than it would be in Barcelona, Amsterdam or London. So, after having lived in…
By the way, just wanted to be sure about this: Tiki Torch parades have been documented since the XI century on the Pyrenees, I just wanted to be sure how old was the tradition. That's the first place that came to my…
Holy sh... I didn't expect that Godwin's law would apply that quickly. IMHO, I'm also part of the problem and I think I am a horrible person, but at least I don't consider myself superior to anyone in any way no matter…
About doing one thing and doing it well, the best (anti) example is systemd. I think that having a DNS resolver and mounting your partitions should be two totally separated things. Fortunately nobody uses syste... Oh,…
I have bad taste. So I will say suckless.org - software should do one thing and do it well - code should be understandable, easy to build, easy to port - dependencies should not be a problem - the chosen language must…
tinc is probably the best alternative for cheap OpenVZ VPS with a tun/tap device, if you don't want a userspace wireguard one... (said the lazy guy that checks if he only needs TCP and, in that case, uses sshuttle via…
