How to use this gist

You've got two main options:

The Freenode resignation FAQ, or: "what the fuck is going on?"

IMPORTANT NOTE:

It's come to my attention that some people have been spamming issue trackers with a link to this gist. While it's a good idea to inform people of the situation in principle, please do not do this. By all means spread the word in the communities that you are a part of, after verifying that they are not aware yet, but unsolicited spam is not helpful. It will just frustrate people.

Update 3 (May 24, 2021)

A number of things have happened since the last update.

It appears that rasengan (Andrew Lee) of Private Internet Access believes that ownership of the company Freenode Ltd. gives him the right to unilaterally replace the current staff team.

We may have had our disagreements with staff, but freenode being run by a volunteer team, using servers provided by sponsors, is a key reason that we appreciate freenode.

As such, we do not believe that such a unilateral replacement by a corporate interest is appropriate.

If this attemped takeover by Andrew Lee continues, we will be advocating to move our communities elsewhere.

Context: Fuchs' leaked (not by him) draft resignation letter that caused Andrew Lee to come onto #freenode: https://fuchsnet.ch/privat/fn-resign-letter.txt

Nastavení IKEv2 VPN na routeru Turris

Tohle je krátký návod pro nastavení IKEv2 VPN pro router Turris, abych příště nemusel dlouze vzpomínat a řešit, jak jsem posledně vyřešil všechny problémy, aby mi to zatracené VPN konečně fungovalo. A možná to pomůže i někomu dalšímu.

Prerekvizity

V tomto návodu je předpokládáno, že Turris je dostupný na doméně vpn.turris.tld a využívá již existující SSL certifikát vydaný pro tuto doménu jinou CA. Nebudu se tedy již zabývat jak takový certifikát získat,

Twitter DM + OTR: A quick and dirty tutorial

With the recent removal of the 140-character limit in Direct Messages by Twitter, DM's have now become a much more useful platform for communicating between individuals and groups. Sadly, DM's are still sent in plaintext between users and Twitter has no plans currently on encrypting these messages, at least as of August 2015. Since these are stored in plaintext at rest, an adversary can see the content of the message you are sending, which the two parties might not wish to happen. Fortunately as a few applications with basic Twitter support which also have excellent support for OTR, all hope isn't lo

GPG / Mutt / Gmail

About

This is a collection of snippets, not a comprehensive guide. I suggest you start with Operational PGP.

Here is an incomplete list of things that are different from other approaches:

I don't use keyservers. Ever.
Yes, I use Gmail instead of some bespoke hipster freedom service

Dune2 on Mac OSX Lion

David Wang has developed an awesome version of the original game that is playable on modern computers, called Dune Dynasty. This is my log of attempting to get it functional on Mac OSX Lion.

CURRENT STATUS: Working

This walkthru was for version 1.4. A new version 1.5 has been released which I'm told incorporates all of these OSX tweaks, so it should work out of the box! I will report when I have the time to compile the new version.

	## Versão do OS 13.04 Server 64 Bits

	"""Simple script to merge multiple RRD files together.
