  • I have not used a yubikey for boot stuff as you describe, I am a fan in general though.

    That said, I have a setup on my servers where there is full disk encryption and a password stored on a random file in a thumb drive or SD card of each machine. If the file / drive is removed I can always type a manual password as well to complete booting. And if I need to do a clean wipe I just delete the keys or intentionally corrupt that sector of the drive, instead of having to do forensic cleaning.






  • Y’know, I haven’t really thought about it, but genesis games are at most 4MB, usually much smaller. Most websites are bigger tbh (AI says the Google landing page is 2MB).

    I was looking a while back at the Sega Channel and thinking about how to reproduce that kind of experience… … My mind is racing faster than I can type and I keep googling things, and I found this. https://github.com/gameyfin/gameyfin Maybe it’s something you could use? Otherwise I feel like the easiest answer is traditional emulators and a public, read only file share. Of course, a friendly user interface would need some work.




  • I have not set it up yet but plan to do so soon. I could imagine a requirement of owning a host name so that you can have a certificate, but I imagine an IP address would work just as well. You will need to open ports on your router according to the documentation; I haven’t looked into reverse proxy options or anything to prevent the firewall changes being necessary.

    But yeah, my understanding is it’s totally doable for “free” (i.e. using your existing infrastructure).










  • Not “the most” but, the first that comes to mind is music by Jimmy Urine (Mindless Self Indulgence, Left Rights, Euringer). “Fuck Everything” is a mood, and while it is honestly far more tame than any of his previous works, it sums them up pretty well. Raging not against the machine but society, his parents, and his psychiatrist. Dude’s probably fucked up father north than Santa and “just acting out” (I’m sure he’ll grow out of it) but the music definitely strikes a chord with me.
