If you're managing linux servers (or desktops, even), I highly recommend this firewalling suite called CSF/LFD. Been using it for decades, and it has protected 'my' linux machines better than anything else ever could. Proud to say none of the systems I manage have been compromised, hacked, broken in to or ransomwared. CSF is easy to install and comprehend even for linux noobs, has well written documentation and does what you hope it does and usually better! It offers an integrated webserver user interface, or integrates in existing control panels (like webmin). And amazingly it's still completely free! https://configserver.com/configserver-security-and-firewall/ I have not been paid for this. It's just out of sheer appreciation and being thankful for all the hard work that its devs have put into it which…

Population declines of Earth's species: 56% of mammals (32–75%) 53% of birds (48–56%) 63% of amphibians (43–75%) 54% of insects (13–89%) 41% of fishes (11–84%) 28% of reptiles (14–63%) 'the magnitude of the Anthropocene biodiversity crisis is considerably more severe than suggested by analyses based on IUCN Red List conservation categories.' The scientific consensus: economic growth and the race for profit mean extinction. 'the planet is approaching a mass extinction event far graver than prior research has suggested' https://phys.org/news/2023-05-anthropocene-sixth-mass-extinction-event.html The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) says '28% of species are under threat'. However, a third of species currently classified as non-threatened on the IUCN Red List 'are actually spiraling toward extinction'. https://www.euronews.com/green/2023/05/26/almost-half-worlds-species-seeing-rapid-population-decline-study-finds Scenario-based climate projections considering the most critical life stages (spawners and embryos) clearly identify…

Blijft leuk ;) Interessant om te vermelden was dat die 'storingen' niet uit de zelfbouw zender kwamen, maar dat ik heel dicht bij een Centraal Antenne Systeem, een voorloper van kabeltelevisie, woonde, en dat de signaal-versterkers die daar toen gebruikt werden niet waren opgewassen tegen sterke hoog-frequent straling (ongeacht de golflengte van die straling). Het was niet zo dat de 'harmonischen stoorden op de luchtvaart- en TV-banden', zoals toen *altijd* werd ge-opperd in de rechtzaal. Er zaten zgn band-pass filters aan de uitgang van mijn zender, daar konden evt harmonischen niet eens doorheen komen. Van de 18 Watt output van de eindtrap bleef nog maar 10 Watt over voor de antenne, zo sterk waren die filters. Iedereen die ooit met hoogfrequent zenders en ontvangers heeft gewerkt weet dat…

Try not to be insulted by the headline. I wrote this because it is slowly becoming mainstream to be scared of 5G, which is - honestly - really stupid. Most people complaining about the bad effects of 5G, 4G, microwave, wireless internet etc. have not been enjoying any education in basic physics. I'll try and explain why in simple to understand language; "How can we be so sure that many diseases are not being caused by the radiation poisoning now occurring from cell phones, 5G towers, EMF’s in the home (wifi, microwave ovens, refrigerators, digital meters etc) at the office, on a ship (many now have onboard 5G), at a concert (with tens of thousands of cell phones in use in close proximity)?" We can be quite sure…

The President of Ukraine, from 2014 to 2019; Imagine we would have a president in the Netherlands, saying this about Frisian citizen, or about Jewish people, or about Muslims, or about atheists? He would be ousted within a day. So how come some of you still wonder why the ethnic Russian population of the Donbass wanted to become part of Russia again? Sham-elections my ass. Even many Western Ukrainians actually spoke up against the ridiculously fascist government, but they were never heard, it seems.. Just a reminder of what CIA director William Burns said in a leaked email, back in 2008 (courtesy WikiLeaks): He was right. Ethnic Russians in Ukraine became the victim of an enormous apartheidsregime, enforced by Kiev's government. Read more about the chain of events…

Disregarding what country or people or leader someone decided to hate and boycott; Is it suddenly considered acceptable behavior to then be completely banning all media coming from such a country, without even asking for a vote from any of us here in The Netherlands? How is this even remotely possible in 2022? I vividly remember how, only 2 decades ago, we were all strongly fighting, even with lawsuits, against censoring/blocking internet access to scientology websites, bittorrent sites, hacker manuals online, ISIS beheading websites, Islam hating movies and comics etc. You just do not mess with the freedom of expression online. That was the credo everywhere. The excuse I hear and read is that this country and its leader have done such horrible things that this alone warrants…

For some strange reason, nobody ever reads or listens to what the president, the leader, of their (fictitious) enemy has to say about stuff. Below is a copy-paste from what Putin most recently had to say about the nuke threats, which, I would reckon, is of value to our survival on this planet, no? So by all means, read the important clip from the translation here; Mr President, could you please comment, is it true that the world is on the verge of the possible use of nuclear weapons? How will Russia act in these circumstances, given that it is a responsible nuclear state? Thank you. Vladimir Putin: Look, as long as nuclear weapons exist, there will always be a danger that they could be used. This is…

Note that Twitter, Facebook and Google are censoring the NEO journal, for no reason other than trying to avoid us accidentally seeing the other side's views or voices. Audiatur et altera pars! Which is why I'm posting these here. America’s Inability to Compete, or Even Cheat; China’s Technological Rise is Driven by Forces the US Cannot Contain; #China vs #USA These banning/blocking attempts are pure totalitarian dictatorial fascism by our so-called democratic governments. So, here's my advice: Stop making yourself dependent on US State owned media. Install Telegram, subscribe to the channels and info sources you want to see there, don't let others decide for you what you're 'allowed' to know or not know about. Do your research. =========================================================================================== ( the following is originally written by Brian Berletic,…

Isn't it hilarious that it's been "controversial" to say there's a US proxy war in a country where the US is sending weapons to be used by CIA-trained fighters backed by US intelligence against a longtime US rival in a conflict the US knowingly provoked? Just an FYI here. Putin asked to join NATO because (as he said in Russian, but nobody dared translate, let alone publish) he hoped and expected they could and would help destroy the nuclear arms arsenal both sides are abusing for imaginary stability between former enemies, and (yes, he actually said this) "all this is, is a weapons arsenal from days when leaders were suicidal emotional maniacs", and "we are above that now, we have existential problems to solve, like a warming planet…
