None of the filtering is working for me. Same with search.

kubuntu26.04 Tried in latest Firefox and latest Chromium


Thanks for flagging — can you share which filters you tried? The leaderboard at capframe.ai/leaderboard filters by severity/rule client-side. If something's broken on Kubuntu/Firefox I want to fix it.

I couldn't toggle any filter earlier. Now I'm able to :shrug:

At $DAYJOB, we use the Telmate terraform proxmox provider, too. Upgrades over the years have had a few papercuts (mainly when values are shifted around), but it has overall been an immense timesaver. A terraform repo contains the 2 colocation datacenter proxmox environments plus a local lab edition of the same builds (locallab uses containers vs full VM's on the "real" hardware so that I can run almost all of the configuration on my laptop). Saltstack gets deployed during the buildouts, which picks up the OS/ application configuration after the OS is deployed.

No agentic stuff on our stack, as our security posture can't afford that currently.

As for the load-balancing, I think the later versions have supported targeting proxmox clusters vs a single node, and the newest Proxmox can do resource auto-balancing. That might get you what you need


Ah, I mean load balancing like an AWS ALB; obviously one can use an Nginx or HAproxy for that, but it's not a primitive, you need to deploy a machine and run it.

They have auto-balancing now? Damn. I wrote a balancer using the Google OR-SAT solver because there was no VMWare DRS equiv.


It's something very new (I think as of the 9.2 version?). I haven't tried it because I don't have quite the need to let it do it's own thing yet.

Ha, a Wikipedia article link to Zenzizenzizenzic was on HN earlier today! I don't think I would have gotten that one right otherwise.

Speaking of modules that lie about themselves, unifi has an interesting little device called the "SFP Wizard" that can reprogram sfp modules.

You can also use a BananaPi BPI-R3 for reprogramming. And you can “upgrade“ 10 Gbit/s DACs to 25 Gb/s. Details here https://kohlschuetter.github.io/blog/posts/2026/03/22/unlock...


I tend to use fs.com optics, but I’ve heard in high rates (100g plus) that flex optic tend to be more reliable


FS has a reprogrammer, called the FS Box. Works well.


fiberstore has them as well, plus you can buy modules, DACS and everything programmed to the vendor of choice, including different vendors on each end

Especially handy for specific Intel NICs where they refuse to link up if the module isn't in the driver-allowed list and those modules are hard to come by


This is the first time hearing the term "kilobucks". I love it (and am stealing it for future conversations).


In French project management parlance, we use k€ all the time.


I guess the french equivalent of kilobucks would be briques (bricks)


Historically, a "brique" used to be a million of anciens Francs (old Francs), then converted to 10 000 nouveaux Francs (new Francs) in 1960.

Since the switch to euro, I think the most commonly accepted value of one "brique" is (unofficially) 10 000 €, but the uncertainty makes it basically useless.


See also the classic french movie: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pour_cent_briques,_t%27as_plus......

I can't recall I've heard "brique" used since the switch to € but it might just be my local bubble


If you were born before WWII, yes.

(The only person I know that still used «briques» in these decades were my grand parents born in the 1920th)


I still use « briques », typically « 10 briques » instead of « 100 k ». I think there is some poetry in sticking to the old obsolete term.


because of the metric system?


How do you pronounce that? Kilo-euro or K-euro?


Whenever I hear it, it is pronounced "keuro" (k-uh-RO). And "meuro" (m-uh-RO) for millions that are Mega-euros (M€).


kha-euh-ro - including the "euh" impronounceable by non-French.


I wish megabucks and gigabucks had the same ring...


Megabucks is a common word but not often used as a unit


My Framework 13 also has this option for some reason, even though my ctrl key is on the outside


If you're not opposed to card games, Five Crowns [1] is a house staple in both sides of my family. It will require multiple people.

Sagrada [2] is a fun game as well. Can be played solo, but I find it more fun with others.

Mine was on a similar game, GORILLA.BAS. I would edit the banana code for a much bigger explosion. Lots of fun back in computer class!


The difference being that editing the source code was the point of the BASIC examples provided with DOS/QBasic/GW-Basic (they’re there to teach you programming!)


Blast, tricked into learning by making you think you're cheating!



We added other weapons to make a poor mans scorched earth as we were only allowed to make games.


My school had a similar loophole: game weren’t allowed in the computer lab, unless you wrote it yourself…


After learning the secret of "breaking" protected BASIC programs in DOS (which involved a poke, as I recall), I remember making higher difficulty levels for a BASIC Star Trek game, because it just wasn't very hard.


I removed collision detection so I could throw bananas through buildings


Where would we be without computer class

Something I wonder! Grateful :D


oh man!!!!!! You reminded me my first gaming experience on a PC with oragne-green screen :D Awesome game


Crowdstrike gave a little talk recently about how prompts pressuring with laws (fake or real) and legal-ese can do similar things.


I made this a while back to move us off our on-prem Atlassian to Gitlab [1]. Maybe it'll help someone if they want something similar. Fair warning: I haven't tried this recently, so YMMV.
