I still am struggling to find articles that actually delve into the technical details of how they’re blocking and if it’s any more complicated than a DNS-level block or if they’re also demanding to block that IP range or what. I want to know who the third parties are and what kind of services they’re offering that allow it to be routed around. Damn not being able to speak Portuguese, that’s on me.

A roundhouse kick to the neck!

Doctors with Borders Made for Them.

Lula doesn’t seem quite as straightforwardly pro-Russia as Bolsanaro was, but its very clear their economic association with Russia makes them unable to truly be neutral arbiters of the situation, no matter how much Lula wants to present Brazil as attempting to be neutral.

It’s probably more familiar with trashbat.co.ck

Trump: “…and Netanyahu told me that Hannibal Lecter came to him, eyes full of tears…”

I know, even this snippet is too coherent for Trump, but his current obsession with Hannibal Lecter is just asking for him to get this confused.

In regards to the actual article about Israel killing its own citizens, I present Philip J. Fry, shocked face:

I had thought I never had to hear John Yoo’s fucking name again, then, shocker, he’s in Trumpland arguing for Executive Supremacy.

Gee, of course the legal architect of Bush’s war crime torture program is all on board with Trump being an untouchable Executive.

I already thought Telegram was some kind of honeypot, but this US using it as a reverse-honeypot to villainize encryption in general is fucking wild when it doesn’t even offer e2ee by default or in group chats.

The New York Times that analyzed more than 3.2 million Telegram messages from over 16,000 channels

They even admit that they did this research on public channels which never had encryption available to them on Telegram.

That’s like going on a bunch of open Discord servers and doing the same kind of research and coming to the same conclusions, even though Discord doesn’t even offer end-to-end encryption.

Arguably, Discord does more moderation of the types of groups in question, but at the same time, moderation is difficult, and acting like groups don’t “fall through the cracks” of Discord’s moderation is naive.

Telegram sucks, in my humble opinion, but I agree, this article seems more aimed at creating the narrative that only criminals use anything that has any encryption offerings, not that criminal activity happens anywhere and everywhere.

Over 20 years ago they ran over US citizen Rachel Corrie with a bulldozer when she protested Israel stealing Palestinian land.

As horrible and disgusting as it is: it’s the same as it ever was.

The US doesn’t even give a damn about it’s own citizens when it comes to Israel.

It’s not your fault that all titles are now effectively clickbait. Thanks for putting the important info in the body of your post.

Hmmm, let’s see, Netanyahu has been non-stop bombing Gaza since… last October.

It’s almost October again. It’s nearly been a full year since the actual initial attack.

There was never a justification to still be bombing nearly a year later after one attack.

It’s clear Netanyahu has no intention to stop.

Rachel Corrie, lying calmly in her grave, there’s nothing for her to spin over here.

Just the same as it ever was, most people seem to forget that Israel has killed plenty of US citizens before.

Have you considered adding a manually configured route for each of these networks to find each other?

If the auto-generated routes aren’t able to find it, I would personally manually add the route on both ends (give 192.168.11.0/24 a path to 192.168.10.0/24 and vice versa) to see if that changes anything.

Occasionally, you just have to tell computers what to do.

EDIT: said “path” when I meant “route”

I already have a MagicMirror and Immich set up, and I’m debating trying to fix the tablet I have, or trying to get a new one like the chap who started this thread.

However, I had nearly literally the same plan in mind for it. I have a friend who does woodworking who is open to making a frame for it once I’m done. Throw MagicMirror and MMM-ImmichSlideShow on there and it’s a digital picture frame.

EDIT: Also, if the tablet is too underpowered (like my old one) you can always run MagicMirror on a different machine/vm and just run Electron to load the page from that machine remotely, reducing the overall load on the tablet itself. If I fix my old tablet, this will have to be the solution because it’s too underpowered for MM on it’s own.

This thread is just full of super useful info. Cheers and thanks!

No problem, also look at atzenteol@sh.itjust.works’ comment in reply to mine. They have some info I wasn’t aware of regarding tri-band WiFi routers. I’m living in WiFi 5 land, so I wasn’t aware of this cool trick:

His router is tri-band though meaning it has 2 5ghz transceivers. With an extender usually you use one of them as a backplane for ap->ap communication so it doesn’t interfere with your performance.

So an access point is still a good solution, but it sounds like you can use it as an “extender” without an ethernet cable as long as you can use one of your spare 5ghz bands to communicate with it. Which is super cool and I was totally unaware of.

I’m living in WiFi 5 world so this is new info to me. Neat. Thanks for the heads up.

Neither router you linked to is supported by OpenWRT or DD-WRT.

Plenty of supported TP-Link routers exist, and probably for cheaper.

What you need is a cheap access point.

“Extenders” actually slow down your network since WiFi isn’t full duplex but half duplex. That’s why you can’t have really have more than one.

Run an ethernet cable to an access point and you will be glad you did.

Wake On LAN maybe?

But that requires a full startup sequence before the file is available.
