So I couldn't figure out why the installer would just freeze for a bit and then close randomly. Even after looking at the terminal as it did its thing, it wasn't really apparent.

Turns out you have no space to update. I used dd on linux and rufus on windows, same result.

sudo mount -o remount,size=2G /run/archiso/cowspace
sudo pacman -Syu

Then running cnchi worked for me. Why is this a thing?

So I have a 4g antenna a netgear switch and this router. Among other things. A friend works in a corporate environment and they were going to throw them away.

If I remember right you have to subscribe to Ciscos services to use their routers. Am I correct? Should I bother keeping it?

I know this sub is usually for system admins to complain about life, I figured I could sneak this in.

r/security•

So i have a laptop requiring a BIOS password to boot, full disk encryption, a separate root account with a completely different password from my user account. Some people comment that it's a little overzealous, but honestly i do it for fun.

My question is, if someone had physical access to my computer would it be possible to retrieve a plain text copy of that BIOS password? How exactly are they stored? Is physical access even required, is it in the realm of possibility for someone to remotely access such information? Should i even use a BIOS password?

The connection from hardware to software is where i usually get lost. Any info is greatly appreciated.

Edit: i should clarify, i know it'

r/Daredevil•

I felt like they did a good job with the punisher overall, throughout the series. I was never really a fan of daredevil before, but i decided to give it a shot. This series is amazing. I binge watched season 2 today haha.

I felt like they did well in transitioning frank and matt from enemies to almost allies. Be it through themselves or their supporting characters. I'm so pumped for season 3.
