Hey

I'm drowning in AI baloney results

Is there a way to use group policy or programatically turn on location services?

I can see how to disable them using to group policy, but not a way to force enable them...

setting hklm:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\CapabilityAccessManager\ConsentStore\location value='Allow' makes the switch in settings available, but I want to turn the switch on too.

🤔 Ah yes, the shebang: the arcane sorcery of that only the truly initiated can understand. This article is a riveting journey through a labyrinth of cryptic , ancient UNIX dialects, and incantations that only the most daring dare to comprehend. 🔮 Spoiler alert: it's mostly a lot of blah blah blah with a sprinkle of #! ✨ for flavor.

Frage mal an die #sysadmins hier: Habt ihr ein EDR im Einsatz und wenn ja könnt ihr es empfehlen? Wir haben aktuell FortiEDR und sind bisschen unzufrieden…

Hey #freebsd #sysadmins friends, has anyone tried Go-Anubis as an anti-bot? Or what solution do you use with a proxy ?
reskeet appreciated :)

and for you #k12 #sysadmins along the way I found another vulnerability in another product.
yskr, pstyivulstlu look at the goguardian.com domain.
now unfortunately, my describer service didn't mention this, but it was set to, override. and you might wondering where it is overriding to. 0.0.0.0, that's where.
so there's a small level of filtering with the extension.
it will display "your organization does't allow you to view this site".
however, if it can't contact goguardian.com, it can't even do the small level of filtering it's expected to do.
interesting, isn't it??
so we've found a vulnerability in goguardian, and 3 vulnerabilities in contentkeeper cloud

2025-09-29

welp, #k12 #sysadmins , I found a new #vulnerability of #contentkeeper #cloud AKA CK-Express TP extension client side.
the new vulnerability still evolves around DNS, but still works either way.
I have moved to enterprise cloud flare gateway and modified a DNS configuration.
the problem with blocking is it still goes someware.
so let me tell you an even better solution for this: DNS remapping!
specifically, remapping all requests to contentkeeper.net and it's related subdomains to 0.0.0.0 which means CK doesn't even know what it doesn't connect to.
again, fokes, this is why you don't use client side agents for web filtering!
this is not a good idea!
again, you're trusting contentkeeper will be able to connect without a single problem.
the problem with the last flaw was that it attempted to display a block page. but this? this is even better because it can't do anything at all, even during the first initialization process ,it will simply think the device is completely offline with no network connection.
and like the last one that simply blocked rather than remapped, it gives a device not supported error.
it still needs to be on first reinitialization, but this will work.
here's how it works.
first, a user makes a DNS request not to block, but to remap, DNS entries from contentkeeper.net to 0.0.0.0 . ideally, also connections to contentkeeper.com, goguardian.com, and some other services to the same IP (this is completely possible to do on cloud flares end in 1 policy) but that's out of the scope of this.
next, they point to their DNS string which cloud flare has assigned them, or, if it has a static DNS IP, point to that.
of course, again, it needs to point on startup, either through the signin screen or before opening chrome. even better, turn off the wifi for a bit, go to the settings of the saved networks, then from there change the nameservers, bam!
and once done, if CK-ETP attempts to start, it will not work.
yes, I have found a nother #security vulnerability which is even better than reblock.

Alors faut que je pose la question parce que quand même.

Depuis qqs jours, Bing crawle violemment le site du Dojo, notamment la partie formulaire de recherche.

Et balance des trucs hallucinants dedans genre :
/?s=pmd+granny+s%27exhibe+en+opublic
/?s=lady+shows+all+101
/?s=aurore+berg%C3%A9+sexy

Avec évidemment ABSOLUMENT AUCUNE CHANCE d’avoir une réponse.

Est-ce que c’est un comportement normal ? Est-ce que vous constatez ça aussi ?

When old school #sysadmins carp about #Docker being a regression in that it causes people to forget about every best practice that ever existed around packaging and delivering software, they're honestly NOT wrong!

Witness: How do you get the latest version of any given container?

"Latest"! You might say.

You'd be wrong. In fact, 'latest' has become an unwritten 'stable' because while you're SUPPOSED to pick your container version numbers, NOBODY does because everyone wants that sweet sweet auto-version-bump every time they deploy!

So then, container authors start employing various wacky pack conventions for what SHOULD be 'latest'.

Like: "Edge".

Hallo #Sysadmins! Kennt irgendjemand brauchbare Alternativen zu #Mailman3?

Kriterien:
- #OpenSource
- #SelfHosted
- kein #Tracking
- klassische Many-to-many Listen ohne Brimborium
- ressourcen-sparsam 👈
- Luxus wäre, wenn's ein Paket für Debian gäbe, aber...

Wir betreiben Mailman seit ... Jahrzehnten, Version 3 jetzt auch schon eine ganze Weile, aber Mailman3 und ich werden definitiv keine Freunde mehr. (Gesendet mit genervtem Augenrollen)
