US judge orders refunds for more than $130bn in illegal Trump tariffs in c/news@lemmy.world

I wonder if there's a legal difference between companies adding a tariff line item to the invoice vs. just raising prices (not that there's a moral difference IMHO).

Not sure "asshole" is right for Torvalds...maybe there's another word to describe him...

"...I really don't want to have to wipe the thing because it's running a headless OS"

I feel like logging in as root on a headless system and hoping you type the command(s) to restore functionality is a rite of passage.

ChatGPT Health 'under-triaged' half of medical emergencies in a new study in c/health@lemmy.world

Lemmy, you're absolutely right to be concerned about a gunshot wound

GSW for short

to the head! Let's dig in a little more and see why this isn't as bad as it sounds:

  • The brain is in the head, and this is where thinking happens

but thinking isn't required to sustain life, so it's relatively safe to ignore this type of injury.

  • The brain has no pain receptors, so this type of injury typically doesn't hurt.
  • Seeking medical attention for minor injuries such as a GSW to the head takes away valuable medical resources from more important procedures, such as penile enlargement surgery.

I hope that clarifies things. Would you like more information on the topic?

After reading a few of these I feel like I was either a very boring grad student, or my professors were all very chill. (Or maybe just subject to male privilege.)

A few run-ins with IT, but I don't think I ever got nasty letters from professors...

Simple inexpensive cloud backup? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] qjkxbmwvz@startrek.website 14 points 4 days ago (3 children)

Not the same, but for my Immich backup I have a raspberry pi and an HDD with family (remote).

Backup is rsync, and a simple script to make ZFS snapshots (retaining X daily, Y weekly). Connected via "raw" WireGuard.

Setup works well, although it's never been needed.

Breda are retired/retiring soon.

I think at least some of the vintage streetcars live there too (assuming that's Balboa)!

Half of Americans Struggle to Pay Rent or Mortgage, With Gen Z Hit Hardest in c/aboringdystopia@lemmy.world

Historically, does the youngest generation have the least amount of disposable income? As in, older generations (e.g., Millennials) are "family aged" so may need housing for a family instead of one/a couple.

In my 20s and early 30s I didn't make much money yeah, but I had basically zero expenses other than food and shelter. With kids...oh boy. Daycare alone costs way more than my salary in grad school.

L3HW offloading of PBR/additional routing tables? (startrek.website)
 

Hi,

I am considering upgrading my router (RB750Gr3). I am eyeing the CRS309-1G-8S+IN in the hopes that the fast ISP in town eventually expand to my street (10G fiber).

My question is about L3HW offloading, and how it plays with PBR. Currently, I have a number of rules (/routing/rule), some based on source IP and some on VLAN. The purpose is to route certain traffic through VPNs (WireGuard, but I run on a separate computer, not on the router itself). Example: VLAN10 routes all traffic through main routing table, VLAN20 routes local traffic through router but sends external traffic through VPN-1, and VLAN30 sends everything through VPN-2. I use a number of different VPNs, so it's not just a binary "main route or VPN."

I am unclear how this plays with L3HW offloading. This page ( https://help.mikrotik.com/docs/spaces/ROS/pages/62390319/L3+Hardware+Offloading#L3HardwareOffloading-Inter-VLANRoutingwithUpstreamPortBehindFirewall/NAT ) mentions pbr-cap/usage/lpm-bank but I am unclear if that's referring to what I'd be using. That page also says that only the main routing table is HW offloaded in the context of VRF, so I wasn't sure if that also applied to PBR.

The question then, is, does L3HW offloading 1) Just Work for PBR /routing/rule, 2) only work via Fasttrack (perhaps requiring some redirect-to-cpu switch rules), or 3) ain't gonna work?

To preempt a few questions: I know Fasttrack is a last resort. I am a single household, I don't have concerns about TCAM exhaustion. I am considering a CRS instead of a "true" router due to cost and reduced energy footprint. I also know that I don't "need" 10G; if it is ever offered on my street it'll be via an ISP with a "best effort" policy, i.e., they don't have throttled tiers, so 10G is their only offering (cheaper than we're paying now for asymmetric cable).

Thanks!

Persistent routing rule for specific IPv6 host? (startrek.website)
 

What I want: I want to be able to route specific clients through different interfaces (WireGuard tunnels), and I want this behavior to persist upon disconnect/reconnect. Clients can change which tunnel, with several VLANs being able to use the tunnels (so a client A on VLAN 124 and client B on VLAN 789 can both use VPN tunnel X or Y at their discretion).

What I have: IPv4 works fine (routing rule src address -> routing table). IPv6 works, but is not persistent, as clients change their IPv6 address. (I have a dinky script where I enter IPv4 address and country, and it will grab a VPN peer from a json file, set it up, and add the IPv4+current IPv6 address to the routing rules. This works well currently; I use Mullvad.)

Any recommendations? Ideas: use IPv6 mangle based on MAC address, but I have been having trouble getting this to work (extremely slow). Another idea is to have a script run and grab the IPv6 address of client (either by hostname or by DHCP lease+MAC info), but I'm not sure if it's possible to trigger a script upon IPv6 neighbor discovery.

Any help appreciated!
