Iptables Golf

Posted by rwfilice on Tuesday March 10, 2015 @10:13PM
from the self-post dept.

We've all seen regex golf - now can someone create iptables golf? This would be targeted at remote administrators - successfully implement the prescribed conditions with the fewest iptables rules without locking yourself out. I'm not the only one who locked him/herself out of a remote machine trying to edit iptables, right?

This sort of offends me - if they offer the option to remove your house entirely, they should offer it to all.

Now when I try and log in, it says it has sent a login request to my phone, my phone registers that as a notification, but when the Twitter app opens it says I have no login requests - so still not working.

I turned it on and it's broken. Nice launch Twitter.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good outdoor fan - something you could leave out on your deck and that would be weather resistant? Does such a thing exist?

Re:Google Search Terms predict market movements on Friday May 24, 2013 @09:07PM (#5766001)

Point #1 is key. If you test enough terms retrospectively you'll find something amazing. Prospective hypothesis testing is where you actually prove something works (or not).

Re:Sonos Replacement? on Tuesday May 21, 2013 @03:13PM (#5746038)

Thanks - this is interesting. We switched to the Airport thinking that might improve things because our old Netgear router is really old - but maybe I'll try switching back or try a Linksys or something.

Re:Sonos Replacement? on Tuesday May 21, 2013 @03:12PM (#5746025)

Thanks for the suggestion - and I've considered this - but from what I can tell you can't reliably sync more than one speaker using Airplay? I'd like to sync between more than one room if possible.

Sonos Replacement?

Posted by rwfilice on Tuesday May 21, 2013 @08:55AM
from the self-post dept.

We've had a Sonos system for about 2 years now - a Bridge component and 2 Play speakers. When it works, it's great - but it frequently stops playing or doesn't start at all - in short it's very buggy and completely unreliable.What does HN use for this type of wireless music playing? We'd like to be able to play our music from a NAS and internet radio/Spotify/Pandora.If anyone has advice on...
