Ubuntu MATE is a distribution of Linux that shares its foundation with Ubuntu itself, but defaults to the MATE desktop environment instead of GNOME. I decided to check out the latest release (22.04 LTS) on my Thinkpad X1 Carbon, but unfortunately things didn’t quite go according to plan…
System Administrators are the heroes we need, and in today’s episode of Enterprise Linux Security, we celebrate Sysadmin Day 2022 and the many people that work tirelessly to keep our servers running.
nmap is a network mapping utility that you can use to gather information regarding the nodes on your network. With nmap, you can perform port scanning, OS fingerprinting, and more! In this tutorial, you’ll learn the basics of using nmap.
Proxmox Virtual Environment is a powerful and easy to use virtualization platform with many features. Virtual machine templates help to minimize the amount of time spent building new instances, and in this video we’ll take a look at how you can utilize Ubuntu’s cloud images to automate the process of deploying new Linux instances.
This time around, Jay and Tom return to the concept of overlay networks, and discuss tailscale and headscale. Combined together, these solutions make it easier to join endpoints while also giving you the ability to self-host the server side of things as well. Definitely a fun weekend project to play around with!
Ubuntu – the distribution that many members of the Linux community love to hate. But why? Is the hate warranted, or are people overreacting? In this video, I’ll give you my thoughts on some or the criticisms that Ubuntu faces nowadays.
CrowdSec is an Intrusion Prevention System that does things a bit differently than other IPS solutions. It’s collaborative, and open-source. CrowdSec has been featured on LearnLinuxTV a few times in the past, but in this video we’ll explore the CrowdSec Console, which allows you to monitor the security events of your Linux servers from an impressive web dashboard. In this video, we’ll get an overview and see it in action!
Note: This is not a review, but an overview of a security solution that Learn Linux TV is actually using in real-life.
In this episode, Jay and Joao discuss a recent report that identifies the “Top 25 most dangerous software weaknesses.” This list includes the usual suspects, as well as some very interesting findings as well. In addition, the descriptions of the common weaknesses serves as a good jumping in point if you’re new to this podcast.
It’s time for another Q&A episode of The Homelab Show! This time around, Jay and Tom discuss questions regarding authentication, remote management, NAS, and more!
What would it be like to suffer a cyberattack event, that literally closes down an entire business? That’s exactly what happened to United Structures of America, a steel manufacturing company. In this episode, Jay and Joao discuss what happened, and some of the lessons learned that should cause other organizations to take a hard look at how insecure their own systems are.
Mycroft AI, the makers of the “world’s first open-source voice assistant”, are today making the latest version of their text to speech engine, Mimic 3, available to everyone. Mimic itself is a text to speech engine that’s on our side, and best of all, it’s open-source! The latest version, Mimic 3, is being released today and is now able to synthesize speech without the cloud!
LearnLinuxTV, a training company that focuses on Linux, has prepared a new video to coincide with Mycroft’s AI release of Mimic 3, that will cover its features and show it in action. Mimic 3 gives us back control, and also powers the upcoming reference device, the Mycroft Mark II. In this video, you might even see a prototype of the Mark II as well!
This project was chosen for being highlighted in a video due to how critical this project is. By using IOT products such as a voice assistant, we lose control of our privacy at the same time. With Mimic 3, you can benefit from having a voice assistant without helping fund big tech. Best of all, you can install Mimic 3 on a Raspberry Pi, Linux workstation or notebook, launch it via a Docker container, or include it as part of a larger project.
You should definitely check out Mimic 3! It’s an awesome project to contribute to, and an example of exactly what we need to take back control when it comes to Internet of Things, or any other technology or development that can benefit from a privacy-focused text to speech engine.
In this episode, Jay and Tom discuss Mycroft’s Mimic 3, some new developments around TrueNAS and pfsense, and more!
