07:08 schestowitz; <p>This month, another new edition based on Devuan joined the stable, meaning a total of four editions: 32- and 64-bit Debian-based versions, plus 32- and 64-bit Devuan-based ones.</p>

07:08 schestowitz; <p>We tried both the 32-bit editions. They look absolutely identical in fact we had to check which was which by looking for systemd-related commands such as systemctl. The Devuan-based edition used slightly less RAM, but otherwise they're indistinguishable.</p>

07:09 schestowitz; <p>So, I sat back and thought about things a bit. First, one observation I had was despite providing the plants with a 10,000 lux light source 12 hours a day, they still had a tendency to grow toward the nearby window. As an experiment, I took one bin and removed it from the regulated light source, and just stuck it up against the window. The plant grew much better with natural sunlight, so, I removed all the

07:09 schestowitz; artificial lighting, unplugged the Raspberry Pi, and just stuck all the plants against the windowsill (it definitely helps that I live one degree off the equator its eternally summer here, with sunrise at 7AM and sunset at 7PM, 365 days a year). I was happy to save the electricity while getting bigger plants in the process.</p>

07:10 schestowitz; <blockquote>

07:10 schestowitz; <p>Arguably, browsers are the weakest link in one's overall security stack, other than the user, that is. In other words, should something naughty happen to your computer, it's most likely going to involve your browser. To that end, browser vendors as well as operating system companies pay a lot of attention to making this delicate piece of software robust, secure, and isolated from the rest of the

07:10 schestowitz; system.</p>

07:10 schestowitz; <p>A few days ago, I had some spare time, and I sat wondering if there was a way to make browsers in Linux extra secure, especially if one uses custom installations or setups? This led me to tinker with AppArmor, a security framework available in a bunch of Linux distributions. In this article, I want to show you what you can do to make your browser (Firefox) extra hardened. Let's go.</p>
