I found an informative post about a related issue that might be of some use to you. Sounds like DHCP or Network Manager may be rewriting your systems-resolved.conf.

Have you tried deleting /etc/systemd/resolved.conf and restarting the service with systemctl restart systemd-resolved?

Did you undo the reverse path strict filtering your guide suggested?

net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1

Above is what the guide suggests to force reverse path strict filtering. Try setting as shown below:

net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 0
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 0

According to the guide, “By default, these are set in /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-default.conf”

Fair points! I’ve been tinkering with Homeassistant for a while now. The community has come very far so I’m hopeful that more advanced features will be added as the user base grows.

Yes, the voice recognition is decent. I mainly wanted a way to control some smart light switches without using a Google device. If you’re looking for something more advanced I don’t have any experience using his tool in that use-case.

Have you heard of Ollama? It’s an LLM engine that you can run at home. The speed, model size, context length, etc. that you can achieve really depends on your hardware. I’m using a low-mid graphics card and 32GB of RAM and get decent performance. Not lightning quick like ChatGPT but fine for simple tasks.

Have you heard of Homeassistant? It’s a self-hosted smart home solution that fills a lot of the gaps left by the most smart home tech. They’ve recently added and refined support for various different voice assistants, some of which run completely on your hardware. I have found they have great community support for this project and you can also buy their hardware if you don’t feel like tinkering on a Raspberry Pi or VM. The best thing (IMHO) about Homeassistant is that it is FOSS.

Here’s an article with a bit more detail… but I’m still unclear whether these backdoor commands are hardware circuits or firmware logic.

Debian is one of the largest GNU/Linux variants out there. Who and what you trust are personal decisions but they’ve got a good reputation.

I’ve run across a couple sites.

Pretty much the opposite of what you asked for but good to know: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_formerly_open-source_or_free_software

There are actually new RAM interfaces being developed. One I have heard of is CAMM2. This new interface improves on the performance that can be achieved with current DIMM interfaces by about 50%. Here’s an article from Corsair with more info: https://www.corsair.com/us/en/explorer/diy-builder/memory/what-are-camm2-and-lpcamm2/

It would have been nice to see this added to the new Framework desktop. The main argument against this would be cost/availability. New standards bring improved performance but may raise the price point of the computer to an unmarketable level. Also, Framework would have to source these modules, which are new and still niche. They would also have to adjust their motherboard design to accommodate the new interface which could introduce additional design considerations or cost.

Some of this was written by ChatGPT. Good eye.
