Most VPN Services are Terrible

Short version: I strongly do not recommend using any of these providers. You are, of course, free to use whatever you like. My TL;DR advice: Roll your own and use Algo or Streisand. For messaging & voice, use Signal. For increased anonymity, use Tor for desktop (though recognize that doing so may actually put you at greater risk), and Onion Browser for mobile.

Debug your PHP in Docker with Intellij/PHPStorm and Xdebug

For your local dev, create a Dockerfile that is based on your production image and simply install xdebug into it. Exemple:

FROM php:5

RUN yes | pecl install xdebug \
&amp;&amp; echo "zend_extension=$(find /usr/local/lib/php/extensions/ -name xdebug.so)" &gt; /usr/local/etc/php/conf.d/xdebug.ini \

# View public IP

curl -s checkip.dyndns.org | sed 's#.Address: (.)</b.*#\1#'
wget -qO - icanhazip.com
curl ifconfig.me
curl ident.me
dig +short myip.opendns.com @resolver1.opendns.com
lynx -dump ifconfig.me | grep 'IP Address'
curl ipecho.net/plain
curl bot.whatismyipaddress.com
curl ipinfo.io

How to maintain fork sync

Configuring a remote for a fork

To sync changes you make in a fork with the original repository, you must configure a remote that points to the upstream repository in Git.

Open a Terminal
List current configured remote repository for your fork

git remote -v
origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_FORK.git (fetch)

Common Options

-#, --progress-bar Make curl display a simple progress bar instead of the more informational standard meter.

-b, --cookie <name=data> Supply cookie with request. If no =, then specifies the cookie file to use (see -c).

-c, --cookie-jar <file name> File to save response cookies to.

Installation of NixOS with encrypted root

These are my notes on instaling NixOS 16.03 on a Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon (4th generation) with an encrypted root file system using UEFI.

Most of this is scrambled from the following pages:

	port = ENV["HOST_PORT"] \|\| 8080

	Vagrant.configure("2") do \|config\|
	# Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
	config.vm.box = "ubuntu/trusty64"
	config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: port
	config.vm.provision "shell", path: "vagrant/provision.sh"
	end
