TrueNAS

I will be moving from FreeNAS jails to ubuntu with docker, docker compose, and portainer. FreeNAS support and updates are lacking. There are many advantages to making the switch and with ZFS on linux I think FreeNAS may be a thing of the past. Stay tuned for a new guide of my latest setup. Check out my other gists for progress on the switch. https://gist.github.com/mow4cash/626275e095f7f90898944a85d66b3be6

cookie-encrypter Vulnerability (CVE-2024-53441)

Let's imagine a website with the following source code:

const express = require('express');
const cookieParser = require('cookie-parser');
const cookieEncrypter = require('cookie-encrypter');
const app = express();

app.use(cookieParser("NicePasswordHereItIsAGoodSecret!"));
app.use(cookieEncrypter("NicePasswordHereItIsAGoodSecret!"));

How to keep using adblockers on chrome and chromium

google's manifest v3 has no analouge to the webRequestBlocking API, which is neccesary for (effective) adblockers to work
starting in chrome version 127, the transition to mv3 will start cutting off the use of mv2 extensions alltogether
this will inevitably piss of enterprises when their extensions don't work, so the ExtensionManifestV2Availability key was added and will presumably stay forever after enterprises complain enough

You can use this as a regular user, which will let you keep your mv2 extensions even after they're supposed to stop working

How to get Telegram Bot Chat ID

Content :

Create a Telegram Bot and get a Bot Token

This is way more complicated than it should be. The following conditions need to be met :

need to be able to track and merge in upstream changes
don't want remote commit messages in master
only interested in sub-directory of another repo
needs to go in a subdirectory in my repo.

In this particular case, I'm interested in bringing in the 'default' template of jsdoc as a sub-directory in my project so I could potentially make changes to the markup it genereates while also being able to update from upstream if there are changes. Ideally their template should be a separate repo added to jsdoc via a submodule -- this way I could fork it and things would be much easier.... but, it is what it is.

After much struggling with git, subtree and git-subtree, I ended up finding this http://archive.h2ik.co/2011/03/having-fun-with-git-subtree/ -- it basically sets up separate branches from tracking remote, the particular sub-directory, and uses git subtree contrib module to pull it all togther. Following are

	import { useEffect, useRef } from 'react';

	function usePrevious<T>(value: T): T \| undefined {
	const ref = useRef<T>();
	useEffect(() => {
	ref.current = value;
	}, [value]);
	return ref.current;
	}

	Hi All!

	I've recently launched a tool that wraps many of the commands here with a user interface. This desktop application is currently available for macOS. There's a roadmap outlining planned features for the near future.
	Feel free to request any features you'd like to see, and I'll prioritize them accordingly.
	One of the most important aspects of this application is that every command executed behind the scenes is displayed in a special log section. This allows you to see exactly what’s happening and learn from it.

	Here's the link to the repository: https://github.com/Pulimet/ADBugger

	App Description:
	ADBugger is a desktop tool designed for debugging and QA of Android devices and emulators. It simplifies testing, debugging, and performance analysis by offering device management, automated testing, log analysis, and remote control capabilities. This ensures smooth app performance across various setups.

	IPtables DDOS protection :

	In my config i assume the server is not a router and already profit from some filtering by the hosting company on shitty
	networks.

	I have tested this on ubuntu server 18.04 with the kernel 4.15.0-36-generic.

	Protect from malformed packet, ACK FIN RST attack and SYN-flood.
	Flood which profit of TCP-KEEPALIVE (so there a no SYN packet) should be handled by the web server (rate-limit in nginx for
	exemple). Connlimit can also be helpfull to limit the number of connexion per ip.

	Byobu is a suite of enhancements to tmux, as a command line
	tool providing live system status, dynamic window management,
	and some convenient keybindings:

	F1 * Used by X11 *
	Shift-F1 Display this help
	F2 Create a new window
	Shift-F2 Create a horizontal split
	Ctrl-F2 Create a vertical split
	Ctrl-Shift-F2 Create a new session

	#!/bin/bash -x

	TEMP_INSTALL_DIR="$HOME/SourceEngineGames/Half Life 2"
	TEMP_CHECKOUT_DIR="/tmp/source-engine"
	STEAM_INSTALL="$HOME/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Half-Life 2"

	if ! test -d "$STEAM_INSTALL"; then
	echo "Ensure you have HL2 installed - ensure it's the steam_legacy edition (Steam -> Library -> Half Life 2 -> Properties -> Betas -> Beta Participation"
	echo "Did not find it installed at ${STEAM_INSTALL}"
	exit 1
