The Justice Department filed criminal charges Friday on in a thwarted plot linked to Iran to kill then-GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump before Tuesday's presidential election, which Trump won.

According to the complaint filed in federal court in Manhattan, an unnamed official in Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard ordered his contact, Farjad Shakeri, in September to hatch plan to kill Trump.

The complaint said if Shakeri wasn't able to create such a plan, the operation would be paused until after the presidential election. According to the complaint, the unnamed official thought Trump would lose and it would be easier to carry out a plot to kill him.

Shakeri told the FBI the official asked for a proposal in seven days, which was a timeframe he was not able to meet.

ANKI


At the request of one of our customers, “anki” has been installed on all of our shell servers. The version installed is the qt6 version from the ankiweb website with the exception of Mint.

On the Mint server, the distribution version is installed because system security would not permit some of the actions required by the install script.

For servers available see: eskimo.com/services/shells/ser…

Presently quacamole and vnc access is broken on manjaro and rocky8.

SSH, rdp, and x2go works on all of the servers.

>“Has there ever been a time in our history,” he writes, “when our nation is knowingly providing arms to another nation using those weapons to kill children, women, innocent people and target the press, doctors and medical workers? And policies enabling this are supported it seems by both candidates?
“We can and must acknowledge concerns for democracy and the Jan 6 episode and the horific [sic] Oct Hamas attacks,” he continued. “But how do we ignore the counter issues of the innocents being killed now? Do we accept that indeed genocide is happening and that we stand as a country of willing arms suppliers and yet remain silent?”

Lightdm / Arctica Greeter Configuration


When you use Lightdm in combination with Slick greeter on a machine with a whole bunch of different desktops installed, the little ball next to the login will have a drop down menu for all the desktops. The issue is if there are too many this drop down extends past the bottom of the window and there is no scroll to get to the bottom ones. So either I need to relocate the login window, which the
Slick greeter seems incapable of, or change the font to a smaller size so they can all fit on the visible portion of the window. I am having a difficult time locating the configuration file. The machine in question is running Debian Bookworm. Anyone know where this file may be located?

Thanks for sharing that song @Nanook it brings back a lot of memories to me.
I hope you enjoyed your birthday too, sorry I didn't say anything but I had a very complicated day even though it was my birthday too. I had a problem with one of my daughters, who sprained her ankle and I also received some official documents that I had to deal with very quickly because I have to renew my Identify documents to avoid any problems living in Spain but not being Spanish as I'm from the UK although I have lived in Spain for over 35 years. I hope you had better luck on your birthday than I did this year. ❤ ❤

Shell Accounts

Shell Accounts
A shell is a command line interface for an operating system. With most shell providers, a command line interface on one flavor of Linux or Unix is all you get. Eskimo North provides access to eight different popular Linux distributions and SunOS Unix. Eskimo North also full remote desktop capabilities using X2Go with sound, and also NX, VNC, and RPD without sound.

Account Types
We offer four different levels of shell accounts: Economy, Standard, Power, and Enterprise. Background tasks such as IRC bots, Game Servers, and the like are permitted on all account types except student. IRC servers are not permitted because of their tendency to draw denial of service attacks. Standard, Power, Enterprise, and Super-Max shells include a MySQL database allowing you to run a variety of LAMP stack based applications on your website and to use non-web based applications that require a database.

Web Hosting
Web hosting under our domain is provided with all shell accounts. You can host your own domains with virtual domains or web hosting packages.

Remote Desktop
Remote desktop capability is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers. Because our servers can be accessed anywhere in the world, this allows you to have a work environment you can access from anywhere in the world without risking losing your files to a laptop, tablet, or phone thief. We offer remote desktop capabilities on all of our shell servers except for the SunOS server. We support x2go, nx, vnc, and rdp protocols. X2go is the best choice as it provides extremely efficient compression and X round trip removal as well as sound.

Applications
Applications include Office Suites such as Libre Office and Caligra (which can read and write Microsoft Office file formats), Web and Program Development tools such as Bluefish Editor as well as many other editors, compilers, interpreters, scripting languages, debuggers, profilers, and online documentation.

E-mail
Our e-mail system offers unprecedented flexibility. You can access your mail via shell mail readers including graphical mailers like Thunderbird, or via Web mail, or via pop-3 and imap mail protocols, complete with TLS encryption. Our mail system includes Bayesian filtering with Spam Assassin which can be individually configured for your needs. Procmail allows you to sort and process mail automatically. Smartlist allows you to maintain mailing lists.

Security
Access to all of our servers is available via strong encryption. The shell servers all support ssh access. All of the remote desktop protocols tunnel via ssh. We maintain all of our servers up to date keep with the latest patches. Backups are made weekly.

Y2038


Most aspects of Linux are ready to move past 2038, indeed I've set the clocks of some machines past that date and things mostly work, file system timestamps work if you use ext4 with 256bit Inodes for example. But what about fat32 systems? This is a potential issue since EFI REQUIRES fat32, can it handle timestamps past 2038, and if not what consequences are this for UEFI system boots?

One User Away from 3000


Our friendica site, friendica.eskimo.com/, is just one user away from 3000! Be our 3000th user!

I started this almost three years ago now after being exiled from Farcebook for suggesting the clot-shot was neither effective nor safe.

I started friendica initially on an i7-6850k machine clocked at 3.8Ghz. It was a six core 12 thread machine with 128GB of RAM. It proved to be marginally sufficient, at times it will get very behind in the work queue and then later catch up.

I replaced the machine with an i9-10980xe processor clocked at 4.8Ghz, this is an 18 core 36 thread CPU supporting 256GB of RAM. Initially it ran well but after about a month it developed stability issues, finally found it's power supply was ill.

Fixed that, it ran for about a month and then 1/4th of it's memory disappeared. The motherboard had developed a bad memory channel.

Replaced the Asus Prime 390A II motherboard with another similar motherboard, it ran for about a month and then became unstable again.

I replaced it with an AsRock motherboard. The AsRock motherboard was not able to deliver the power required by this CPU and melted the solder at the power connection of the CPU socket.

I then replaced it with a Gigabyte Aorus Master and initially it ran good. Then developed stability problems AGAIN. After much troubleshooting I determined there were two problems, the power supply had again gone south, so this time I replaced the 1KW Gigabyte power supply with a 1200 watt Seasonic supply, so far so good. The other issue we ran into is 6.11 kernels have issue with the TPM RAPL code that cause premature throttling of the CPU. Disabled the TPM in BIOS and it fixed that issue.

Then when we upgrade to 6.11.3 and later stability again problematic, put it back to the 6.11.2 kernel and stable again so we're leaving it on that kernel for now.

This machine is up to the task load wise, CPU occupancy is around 4%, lots of overhead for the occasional traffic spike.

Because I think history is important, we have conversation retention set to 9999 days on this machine. I wish there were an infinite do not delete setting in friendica but for now this is best we can do. Probably by the time 9999 days has elapsed this will have changed.

Anyway, be our 3000 user, Join us at friendica.eskimo.com/

Remote Desktop


Shell is a command line interface to an operating system. Most shell providers offer a simple text only interface via ssh, telnet, or rlogin. With some of these providers it may be possible to execute X commands and redirect them to your display. While this allows you to use graphical commands, it is a tedious process.

While Eskimo North does provide traditional shell access, we go much further offering full remote desktop access with sound. This is like having a monitor, keyboard, mouse, and speakers plugged right into our servers and it is available from anywhere in the world. With a reasonably decent broadband connection, full motion video and high quality audio is possible.

Four popular remote desktop protocols are supported. All of these are tunnelled through ssh to provide encryption to protect your sensitive data and to prevent snooping on your activities or intercepting your login authentication credentials.

Guacamole Web Based Access
On our website under Web Apps, Desktop or Terminal Access, or by going directly to eskimo.com/guacamole/, login with “public” for the login and password. Then choose the server and whether you want a terminal or desktop and then login with your login and password. This allows you to access a terminal session or full remote desktop session from any HTML5 compliant web browser.

X2Go
X2Go is by far the preferable protocol to use. There are two clients that work with X2Go, the X2Go client, and PyHoca, a python client. The X2Go client is easy to configure with a simple graphical configuration interface. It tunnels all data through an SSH connection by default so there is little chance of accidentally establishing an unencrypted session and exposing critical data. It is the only remote desktop that supports sound well. It does an excellent job of eliminating X round-trip delays and it also compresses data very efficiently. It is the only remote desktop protocol that is sufficiently robust and efficient to make full motion video and audio work reasonably well over a cable modem connection. X2Go is available for Windows, Linux, and Mac OS/X based computers. For linux computers, it is usually included with your distribution. Try yum install x2go-client or apt-get install x2go-client.

VNC
VNC is an old X-forwarding protocol. The VNC servers we have here are configured to tunnel through ssh in order to provide a secure encrypted session. Consequently, you will either need a client that provides ssh tunnelling such as Chicken VNC (not to be confused with Chicken of the VNC which does not provide this functionality) or you will need to setup an ssh tunnel manually. VNC does not do such a good job of eliminating X round-trip delays nor does it compress as effeciently as X2Go or NX. However, VNC is available for more platforms and if you have an older computer this may be the best option.

RDP
RDP or Remote Desktop Protocol is the protocol used by Windows for remote desktop access. If you have a Windows machine, you most likely already have RDP built in so it is a quick way to get a remote desktop up and running. The performance of RDP is really not adequate for full motion video and it also lacks audio and remote printhttps://www.eskimo.com/services/free-trial/ing.
