So reading up on the evolution of whales for arguments sake has me realising all dolphins and whales are (as mentioned) from the same family.

Your traditional whale fits into "Baleen Whales (Mysticeti)" which have "soft, hair like structures on the upper mouth" and there are 16 species and 3 families.

Meanwhile there are also "Toothed Whales (Odontceti)" with 76 species and 10 families. They are smaller, actively hunt and almost always live in pods.

The most surprising thing I've learned is that the Baleen Whales typically have two blow holes...??? Also they do not echolocate but they do sing/chat.

So almost all your traditional large whales fit into the Baleen category and the traditional dolphin fits into the Toothed category. So there are key differences between them, but the overall family is whale.

This is a dumb argument huh

Dolphins are whales with teeth, a distinction that makes them just slightly not whales

I'm thinking data entry for threat hunters, and integrations with our other platforms apis but I couldn't say anything specific. SSDs are a good shout, I might have tried setting it up with hdds if you hadn't said.

Did you find it easier to add connectors in seperate docker containers or within the main octi container?

It feels like there's a pretty high ceiling for this platform and the data you can generate. Do you find it easy to create good data? Do you have any habits?

I'm pretty keen to learn so feel free to answer what you can.

 

I'm about to start hosting an OpenCTI instance for work and was looking for advice on pretty much everything. I'm new to self hosting and was wondering if anyone had any advice or helpful guides (storage space, config tips, etc).

I'm looking to set up an OCTI server as a docker container behind nginx. I'd love to practice at home so this is sort of relevant to the community. Have you done this, what did you learn, do you have any things I should watch out for?

My bad, what linux distro you running?

Nice try Microsoft, I still don't like your monthly "small" ui changes that hide the features I use and add extra "get copilot now" buttons

I'll go so far as to say that you shouldn't click any links coming from a business via text. Nor should you call a number that starts with anything other than 1300 (again, if solicited by text). Go directly to the banking app or mygov and call the number on the contact/support page.

If the fraud department rings then get the name of the caller, hang up, call the number in their app or on their site and tell them you just had a call. If they don't know you, you just dodged a scam. Otherwise, continue and listen to them. If the fraud department thinks you're being scammed, they're probably right.

But was it Bailey's, Bailey's, or Bailey's so close you get your eyes wet coloured?

Same thought different reasoning: the expression "a bees dick" exists. There's no equivalent for birds.

In the update settings she can reset her apt sources back to "default". It's not too hard and there's a gui throughout the process (from memory).

The package conflicts is an interesting one, if you have the time to post one of these on lemmy I'm sure someone will suggest a fix. It's probably a apt install --fix-broken or something simple (hopefully) but I'm sure we could work it out.

Totally agree that these are annoying issues though. See if you can use Nala, it's a TUI front end for Apt and it's got some nice user changes like if you run upgrade it updates and upgrades. It also has a fetch feature which finds nearby sources, so you're always downloading from the closest/fastest source.

I recently bought a new wifi part with WiFi 6e capabilities, so my pc sits on a 6ghz bandwidth while all my other devices sit on 2.4 or 5ghz, so my internet speeds are great across all my devices.

Point being I have never felt it more urgent to donate to the Bill + Malinda Gates foundation and I think you should to! /s

Cyber security guy here: we care about 22 for SSH, 443 and 80 for Web traffic, 3389 for RDP and 21 for FTP. Everything else we google and we all have to google 21 and 3389 because we all forget them half the time anyway.

 

So I've been running Windows on my gaming system and Linux on my laptop for Uni for a while. I chose this to discourage working instead of relaxing, or gaming instead of working. However, I am finding that I often get the opportunity to work from home and I find it easier to just use my laptop on the go (I have a dual monitor setup + kvm switch so its a little annoying to have to come home and run 3 cables just for some extra screen realestate).

I want them to run the same OS so I can use the same tools and workflow. I use Ubuntu 23.04 on my laptop, W11 on my PC. I have nvidia GPU's in both (1660 Super Desktop and 3050 Laptop), so installing and maintaining drivers would ideally be easy. I would use Ubuntu but I plan to move away from it since they're moving away from .debs. Any recommendations? I am looking for stability, but something I can game on. I've never had a linux gaming pc so I don't know how much that changes things. I don't want to do much tinkering, I am more of a set an forget type.

I generally prefer Gnome, XFCE, KDE, Cinnamon, Mate in that order. I looked it up and a lot of the games I play are Proton DB Gold or up. The only game with an anticheat that I play is the MCC and I'll just disable the anticheat if its an issue.
