Update: This setup stopped working after a few firmware updates; there were apparently some software updates after the catalog of internet radio stations broke down . Maybe they also read my bug report about the broken encoding and found my blog post. I didn’t investigate much; superficially it looked like the radio is just ignoring the returned IP address if it’s a local one. Have you ever wondered what your Internet-connected devi....

I finished 2018 strong, having read 15 different books for myself - three times as many as I read in 2017 . I only read one book in December, but I was determined to finish it by the end of the month/year so I could say I read 3x as many books in 2018 as I read in 2017.

1. So what is WSL? Simply put, it’s a kernel interface (lxcore & lxss) that allows 64-bit Linux binaries to run on a Window 10 or Windows Server 2019 kernel. All you need to do is add the userland (file system structure and programs) from an existing Linux distribution, such as Ubuntu, Kali, Debian or SUSE, and that Linux distribution will run natively on the Windows kernel! You must access the Linux distribution via a Windows progr..

In this article we will put some light on a lot of tools used in the world of Unix desktop environment customization, particularly regarding wmctrl, wmutils, xev, xtruss, xwininfo, xprop, xdotools, xdo, sxhkd, xbindkeys, speckeysd, xchainkeys, alttab, triggerhappy, gTile, gidmgr, keynav, and more. If those don't make sense then this article will help. Let's hope this can open your mind to new possibilities.

I have recently started work again on searchcode server with the continued plan to upgrade searchcode to use the same code-base. One big issue with this which I recently tweeted about was that Java has a decent well documented fast library for just about everything, with the exception of a good syntax highlighter like Pygments http://pygments.org/ or Chroma https://github.com/alecthomas/chroma It is however possible to use Pygme..

From 1997 to 2010 I believed it was only a matter of time before Linux on the desktop became a reality. I gave up in 2010 and went to OSX. But we may finally be close! Here’s my notes on installing Linux Ubuntu 18.04 on a Dell Inspiron 15 7000. It’s the easiest and happiest linux ever for me.

My blog post about ssh is still the most frequently read content on my blog four years later. I've collected enough shell tricks that it's about time for one of these type of posts about my favorite software tool of all time: the shell. My experience is mostly limited to zsh, so while the examples here will be zsh-based, I think other shells like fish and xonsh are great as well. Upgrade Your Shell Bash is fine, but at a certa....

Life is messy. We devote a lot of time and effort into managing that chaos. I thought of a little “theory”, if you will, that helps me. The Home Theory # Everything needs a home. The class of things that need homes is broad. It includes: School assignments Legal documents Pictures Recipes Ideas Projects Books Charging cables Tools etc. The home needs to suit the thing that goes there. I have found that getting this right is real....

With one of my many honeypots actived around the world wide web, I discovered an interesting script written with the famous Perl programming language. This Perl script is a malware used to remotely control a machine, opening what is technically called backdoor. If this malicious program runs on multiple machines, there is a possibility that the attacker may have created a botnet. -Continue to read the article on SerHack.me
