Check it out here: https://www.ustoopia.nl/featured/block-countries-based-on-geo-data-with-ufw-firewall/ I was noticing some really strange requests in my web server’s log files on a VPS that I manage.

In this article I will show you all the steps you will need to set up DNS-over-HTTPS to Cloudflared on a Raspberry Pi that’s running Pi-Hole on RaspBian Stretch OS. This is called an Argo Tunnel. Now you might think to yourself; What does all this even mean? Let me explain… A Raspberry Pi is a really cheap, tiny computer that has very low power consumption. These tiny computers cost…

As an old fart, I remember playing games like Half-Life and Half-Life II and of course Counter-Strike when it was still just a beta mod for HL.

Gutenberg is a feature that has been under development for a while now, will be released with version 5 of WordPress in the very near future. Until that time, it can be installed as a WP Plugin if you want to try it out. I’m pretty excited about this, cause it looks pretty awesome to me. The designers are already thinking ahead, and here is how they see the future…

Today I was in a conversation and I wanted to refer to a very famous rule that belongs to “the main rules of the internet”, but I couldn’t remember it so that conversation went weird really fast. So after I googled it, and it turns out I was trying to refer to rule 34 (There is porn of it, no exceptions. of the internet what is rule 34 zelda pokemon…

And with BFA I mean the new Word of Warcraft expansion Battle for Azeroth. This new expansion will be released exactly one week from now. The last expansion, Legion, was one of the best expansions we’ve seen over the years. I’ve enjoyed it very much. But to be honest, I stopped playing World of Warcraft several months ago. And this freed up a lot of time for other things that…

If you are an Android user, you will probably have found a new app called Google Assistant on your mobile recently. It took them long enough! I read an article that said all Android users would receive the app in the next couple of days when living in the Netherlands. I waited for a while, and then a bit, and in the end I waited well over a week, when…

Our politics of choice is none. Our society of choice is utopian, though we know it will never be. You may hate us. You may dismiss us. You may misunderstand us. You may be unaware of our existence. We…

But this experiment is perhaps even more fun for people who have never used any hallucinogenics, but are perhaps a bit curious to find out what the effects are a bit. But no worries, you won’t have to…

In my previous post, I explained how to set up an OpenVPN server on Raspbian (April 2018 release) on any model Raspberry Pi. Here’s how to set up the client certificates that you can import in your OpenVPN client app on your desktop or mobile. All these commands are to be entered in the console as root user. cd /etc/openvpn/certs source ./vars ./build-key client mkdir /etc/openvpn/client cp /usr/share/doc/openvpn/examples/sample-config-files/client.conf /etc/openvpn/client/client.ovpnCopycd /etc/openvpn/certs…
