So there is the selection machine that prints a ballot paper, and a scanner that actually counts the vote. If the selection machine does such a shit, you should test the scanner, too.
And the odd thing is that all reports mention switching of the vote from DEM to REP, but none in the other direction…
Get a used PC. Absolute sufficient for a private NAS. Can be slighly outdated, needs no monster graphics card (or none at all if it has basic on-board graphics), and runs all the peripherals you’ll ever need.
Multiport Knock patterns.
I know that risk, but that has been mitigated by other means. There is no open port exposed to the net waiting to be hacked. It only opens on demand for a single connection.
I’d say yes to RAID in a NAS or server in general. Just see that you don’t purchase the disks in one go - that was the only RAID in the last 30 years to fail on me (five disks within 20 serial numbers, four of them failed in total, two within a night). Was a pain in the a… to restore stuff from tape, but at least i had them.
That is a separate issue. Hardening a single service that happens to offer a login is easier than hardening a whole bunch of services that were never intended to face the net.
Yes, indeed.
Do you know that European countries have “states”, too? And that this person crossed several of them (how many depends on the route taken) on the tour through Germany should be clear, too.
What I did was setting up two routers. The outer one is a big filter, and the only packets coming in went through it.
If someone would have managed to take over this outer router, the next step would have been to probe the inner router. For this, they would send packets originating at the outer router to anything on the inside net.
This would trigger an alert on the inner router that switches a relay, cutting the power on the outer router.
Keep in mind that we are talking about right-wingers here. They are not known to make sense with their behavior. On the contrary, the word “mad” describes them quite well.
If it’s on a card, ditch it and replace it with a better one. If not, and you’ve got a spare slot, buy a new card.
This stopped being funny about four or five posts ago.
Let me put it this way: I have a removable harddisk with my files from the universities’ VAX 11/780 in storage. Long enough?
I just sort by Artist and Album.
That would definitely be easier than trying to milk them twice a day…
Hopefully. If it wasn’t, some person wasted two chickens’ life.
I wonder how traffic on “Truth” Social is going right now.
Where the machine is right, it’s right.
