If you don't want to risk getting a ban at all, the only safe thing is to not connect to the internet at all. Maybe there is some level of safety, but it could take only one mistake.

If we assume that we fully understand how nintendo catches this, we would still only ubderstand at that point in time. They could still change or push updates which could cause you a problem.

If you want something similar to vim or neovim, but without all the fuss learning how to configure it and install plugins and such, you could try helix.

I would return it, but if you are curious you can try some of the following to get experiencing identifying bad disks.

You could try a different computer or controller to be sure.

If you can get some writes/reads to work, you can use badblocks or dm-crypt: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Badblocks#Alternatives

Badblocks will write known data to disk then read it to verify its good. If the disk is malicious, this can be faked. badblocks is also a little slow.

Using dm-crypt in the wiki will write zeros through dm-crypt which will result in random noise being written to disk, then compare with zeros to verify reads are good. This can not be faked easily since the zero stream is encrypted as it is written to disk.

Don't buy into tape. It is costly and is inferior to hard drives by most metrics for smaller scale operations. You can easily get 8TB hard drives for less than $20/TB. While tape is cheaper than that, the drive to actually use it is expensive, plus you get all the disadvantages of the tape itself.

Fun fact: you can probably buy a whole server, external sas card and disk shelf for less than the cost of a somewhat modern tape drive.

If you are wanting to store less than 100TB of data, it would probably be cheaper to use drives, then in 3-5 years buy another set of disks and still be ahead compared to tape.

Immigrants shockingly often vote conservative.

I am not sure what these results mean exactly. Perhaps the third generation is some specific type versus the second.

They can do both, and if their stance is at all ideologically motivated, then it is necessary to focus on more than just the low hanging fruit of doing reviews.

The free software movement is more than just the free software existing. It is also congruent to the laws that permit it and extending rights

Right to repair is about more than simply fixing things. It's about going after companies and lobbying to get actual rights enshrined into law.

Which one is it?

It can and will work, but it will not be optimal. You will be able to connect to other peers, but other peers will not be able to connect to you. This usually isn't a big deal, but it's not great in situations where there are not many peers, and you need every connection you can get.

No, you should keep both udp and tcp port 53 open going out. blocking dns vc/tcp will result in dns being partially broken.

Why would you strip ipv6 if mullvad supports it. The reason people disable or block v6 are for 2 reasons, ignorance, and/or the vpn providor doesn't support ipv6. V4 and v6 can and usually do run at the same time (this is called dual stack), so if the vpn only touches the v4 side of things, v4 will be tunneled while v6 will be unaffected.

Also, the firewall doesn't matter if you use a torrent client that can just bind to the wg interface (assuming there is no nat being performed from the wg interface to the physical interface). The client will take one or all of the ips on the interface, which will make it impossible to leak IP directly assuming your switch or router doesn't also have an ip in the same subnet as your wg interface ip.

I don't know UFW, but if you run iptables-save or nft list ruleset i can take a look to see if it is sane.

But what i can tell is that it might work. You appear to be only allowing public traffic to wg. It should be noted that this setup will likely fail at some point because you are hard coding the IP. It should fail safe, but the public internet will not work.

Bottles is pretty good. It's available on flathub.

Many ISPs are no longer handing out even 1 public ipv4 address per account, and instead opting for CGnat which further breaks and stratifies the internet.

Tmobile for example is 464xlat which is even worse than cgnat since it requires tampering with dns responses.

Given the situation many ISP are in, most serious companies offering services on the internet have supported ipv6 for a long time now in order to offer the most competitive service possible. And with cloudflare now serving up a large amount of traffic, a lot of all traffic is v6.

Believe it or not, but IPv6 is here and gaining ground.
