Finally took care of something I’ve been meaning to do for a while… I now have my Pi-Hole showing the real client source IP’s instead of the router & localhost. I have this post to thank: Pi-Hole Discourse: [SOLVED] Can’t see device list on Pi-Hole Admin.
This is definitely not the first time I’ve tried getting this working, but glad I was finally able to. Looks like if I had read a bit more, I never would have run into issues… By the second or third time I ran into problems, I at least figured out why: with my home directory being encrypted, the “secret” 2FA files could not be accessed & verified. Now for the fun part… It looks like Google had the instructions for encrypted home directories in the README the whole time. ...
I actually forget what web site this one, but found this little gem while trying to setup a new account: I guess my password doesn’t meet their requirements? Then I decide to use this instead. No, I didn’t actually make my password “password123” but I would have thought a site warning my against it wouldn’t allow “password”+< something >. The fact that it wouldn’t accept my random password probably should have been my first hint that it was not going to go well.
This took way longer than I would have liked, but at least it seems to be working right now. After moving recently, I needed to purchase a new router, leaving my rooted Google WiFi AP’s behind. I decided to replace it with a D-LINK AC2600 EXO MU-MIMO Wi-Fi Router. After some more router related fun, I was able to get DD-WRT custom firmware running on the device. With that finally in place, my next project was to get the OpenVPN Server feature enabled. I had all the certificates & keys I needed, it was just a matter of getting the right config in the DD-WRT Admin GUI. Below is what I finally had in the “Additional Config” field that, that ended up working: ...
Trying to get into Switch theming, so this is my first attempt: Deadpool Playing Pokemon: ClearLayout screenshot. Download is available here. I also posted the theme to /r/NXThemes: My First Theme: Deadpool Playing Pokemon: ClearLayout.
Guillem96 has a new payload available on GitHub: argon-nx. As he states in the description there, it’s meant to be used to choose which payload you’d actually like to launch; just use the ArgonNX payload, & then choose from any BIN you have located in the \argon\payloads\ directory. What’s nice about this is that you can choose the logos to go along with each BIN. Still have some work to do, but this is what my selection screen looks like right now: ...
Pretty accurate description of what I’ve been up to recently. Since getting homebrew running on my Nintendo Switch, I’ve been booting up some old hardware & getting homebrew &\or custom firmware running there. The most recent three after the Switch have been my Nintendo Wii U, PlayStation Vita, & PlayStation 3. I’ve had CFW running on my Vita for a while, but also haven’t turned it on in ages. I came back to some interesting to features in the homebrew scene which was a nice surprise. ...
Despite the convenience of having Authy’s ability to sync across devices, I decided I wanted to change my 2FA app to Android’s andOTP. To do this (without unenrolling & re-enrolling myself in 2FA for my 50+ services), I needed to find a way to export my secrets from Authy. I did find a few posts on the topic, but didn’t have any luck with those guides. Most seemed to be a variation on the same process of getting the secrets from the Authy Chrome extension. ...
Now that I’ve finally started getting homebrew running on my Switch, figured I’d put together a quick ReiNX splashscreen, similar to one of the Luma3DS ones: Luma3DS XL “BIOS” splashscreen at boot. My first attempt at a “BIOS” boot splashscreen for the Switch.
