Ragnarok + Mortem release gig på Blå, Oslo

Double release gig from two legendary bands from the Norwegian black metal scene, Ragnarok and Mortem!

Ragnarok + Mortem release gig

Når: Fre, 20. des, 2019 @ 19:00
Hvor: Blå, Oslo

Ser frem til denne konserten! Mortem er ett av de aller tidligste norske black metal bandene. Etter å ha ligget i dvale siden de ga ut demoen Slow Death i 1989, er de nå tilbake med ei skive som klarer å kombinere stemningen fra begynnelsen av norsk black metal med en moderne produksjon og lydbilde.

@M. Dent I definitely need more time to explore all the functionality in hubzilla. I've played around with the website functionality, but found it too cumbersome. The file sharing is very nice for simple needs, I've yet to figure out the cal/card-daw stuff.

Må skrive om historia til Kvernes stavkyrkje

Harald Eilertsen

Wed, 11 Dec 2019 22:43:25 +0100

Eit lite hol avslørte ein stor hemmelegheit

Nede ved sjøkanten på Kvernes i Averøy kommune, ligg stavkyrkja Kvernes. Lenge har ein trudd at denne kyrkja vart bygd i mellomalderen, slik som mange av dei andre stavkyrkjene i Noreg, men nye undersøkingar viser at denne kyrkja vart bygd i 1633.

– Dette endrar den norske stavkyrkjehistoria, og eg syns dette er eit veldig spennande perspektiv, seier Astrid Galstad, rådgjevar for formidling i fortidsminneforeininga.

Dette er jo kjempeinteressant. Var selv og besøkte denne stavkirken senest i sommer. Den er mindre iynefallende utenfra enn f.eks. Urnes, Borgun, Hedal og de mer kjente, men innsiden er egentlig ganske interessant. Vel verdt et besøk om man har en hang til eldre norsk historie.

@idolator Yeah, it is. A quick summary in english for you and others who may not be fluent in Norwegian :)

This is the Stave Church at Kvernes on the northwesten coast of norway. New measurements indicates that it was build in the early 1600's, which is quite significant since until now we have thought that this technique for building churches went out of use at least a century or more before this time.

Fildelingsverktøy

Harald Eilertsen

Tue, 10 Dec 2019 20:06:49 +0100

Her om dagen fikk jeg et spørsmål om gode verktøy for å deling av filer eller mapper. Mange kjenner jo de kommersielle aktørene på området, men finnes det noe som er trygt, brukervennlig og fritt å bruke?

Det er i utgangspunktet to måter å dele filer via internett på. Enten via en server som alle som skal dele filer må snakke med. De fleste av de kommersielle tilbyderne fungerer på den måten. Alternativet er at maskinene som skal dele filer snakker direkte med hverandre, såkalt peer-to-peer eller likemannsnettverk.

Hvilke type nettverk man velger avhenger gjerne av hvilke behov man har. Her er uansett noen av verktøyene jeg anbefaler.

Jeg har visst bedrevet blogging igjen...

@Haakon Meland Eriksen (Parlementum) Er klar over det. Fungerer tålelig greit til småting, men jeg ville neppe prøve å holde felleskatalogen på bandet på noenogførti gig i synk med den. Syncthing er uovertruffen der. Er nok heller ikke et verktøy jeg vil anbefale til formålet med mindre man allerede har en hubzilla-instans kjørende.

Unpatched Strandhogg Android Vulnerability Actively Exploited in the Wild

Harald Eilertsen

Tue, 03 Dec 2019 10:24:19 +0100

Dubbed Strandhogg, the vulnerability resides in the multitasking feature of Android that can be exploited by a malicious app installed on a device to masquerade as any other app on it, including any privileged system app.

In other words, when a user taps the icon of a legitimate app, the malware exploiting the Strandhogg vulnerability can intercept and hijack this task to display a fake interface to the user instead of launching the legitimate application.

This seems like a neat attack. Does anybody know of a legitimate use of the taskAffinity feature of android?

Oh btw, about a month ago we handled ~200k visits in a day, ~12 pageviews per second, ~1Gbps bandwidth, on a WordPress site on our infrastructure... without breaking a sweat.

How? Years of polishing our front-end caching reverse-proxy config. Is it #FLOSS? Of course it is: https://git.occrp.org/libre/fasada

Also, thanks and kudos to #Greenhost for hosting our edge nodes.

Point is: no, you don't need #CloudFlare.

Slightly modified, I've been doing this for nearly a decade.  It's an awesome solution.  I started with WP, but now  I currently run it in front of everything including Hubzilla and Zap - I've submitted patches to both to help facilitate this type of configuration.

Properly tuned, it can rock a TON of traffic.  There are also quite a number of things you can do on the back end to create quite a nice CDN network and avoid some of difficulties of their configuration if you set up a virtual network using something like n2n.

Run php-fpm via TCP instead of sockets and only expose it to the virtual network, properly tune your caches, and the only real limitation is the ability for your MYSQL database to feed data.  Haven't played with multiple app servers all feeding into a single database - but haven't yet needed to.

If you layer in s3backer to host your media directory (eg. /store --- but maker sure /store/[data] is still local since it's very volatile), and you can have virtually unlimited data storage also.

When you outgrow a local-hosted mysql - move it to the n2n virtual network and then eventually a mysql/mariadb cluster - and scaling out becomes a breeze (by then you need to be using dedicated hardware, however).  Management gets a bit more complex, but there's a fairly clear path.

...(not that I've put much thought into it mind you...)

They are included in 4.6 - the CDN/infrastructure caching enhancents. It pushes everything (even static files) through PHP - but adds reasonable caching directives. Also it forces everything to run through index.php - providing a measure of protection against bad actors trying to run uploaded PHP scripts.

Hey makers!

We know many people use the #inkscape #gcode extension (gcodetools), which we have improved and updated to python3.

We need testers to check everything is still right!

Please go to https://chat.inkscape.org/channel/inkscape_extensions, so we can help you get started with testing.

Let's work together to make 1.0 a good release for makers ;)
