If they did, I haven’t heard about it. China has been trying and failing to block tor for decades though, so I kinda doubt Russia managed to beat them to it overnight.

If you’re just looking for remote access, openvpn on port 443 should (in theory) be indistinguishable from normal https traffic.

Tor. It’s free, it works, and there’s nobody to sell you out when the cops come knocking.

Ok, there’s the problem. Your boot partition is pretty much full. You’re using partitions instead of lvm, so expanding the partition will be next to impossible; so start looking through /boot for stuff that’s safe to delete. It’s weird that you have so much stuff in there, I don’t think I’ve ever seen my boot partition go above 250mb used.

zstd: error 25 : Write error : No space left on device (cannot write compressed block)

What’s the output of df -H?

Also, this sounds like it’s installing initramfs, which is normally only done when first installing the OS; can we get a list of the packages it’s trying to install/upgrade?

Auto update itself isn’t the root problem. The problem is that apt update is hanging and never finishing. It just happens to be getting called automatically as part of an auto update system, but the root issue would still persist even if OP disables auto updates.

When apt update fails to complete, it’s almost always because of a broken repo somewhere; hence my question about sources.list.

I’d leave the main sources.list alone, but temporarily move all of the files out of sources.list.d and see if that fixes it.

What if walking into the redwood forest is what causes your death? You would’ve lived if you stayed home and played video games instead of going into the forest and getting mauled by a bear

Your estate refers to everything you own. If you own a car, it’ll be sold to cover your debts when you die. Same with your house, all of the food in it, your computer with all of your porn tabs still open, and even your signed vhs collection of rare midget scat porn from the 1990s. It all gets sold off to settle your debts when you die, before it can be distributed to your next of kin.

Definitely sounds like auto-update if it’s respawning itself on every boot. The fact that it never exits is weird though; have you added any third party repos? What’s in your apt sources.list file(s)?

Your debts cannot be transferred to your next of kin when you die, but they will need to be paid out from your estate before it’s disbursed to your family

“Maybe if we slap his wrist again, he’ll start being a good cop this time!”

Vandalism would normally be covered by comprehensive coverage, and won’t affect your premiums; you’ll just have to pay a deductible. If you tried to do it yourself, you’d never get the paint to match quite right, so you’re better off taking it to an auto body shop to have it professionally repaired.

I’m out of the loop, what’s the context for all this?

All I see is hunter2

Sorry, I sneezed

Oh weird, it wasn’t returning anything a few minutes ago. I wonder if we pissed then off lol

It’s essentially to add a unique salt to each machine that’s doing this, otherwise they’d all be generating the same hash from identical timestamps. Afaik, sha hashes are still considered secure; and it’s very unlikely they’d even try to crack one. But even if they did try and were successful, there isn’t really anything nefarious they can do with your machines local name.

Here’s a quick bash script if anyone wants to help flood the attackers with garbage data to hopefully slow them down: while true; do curl https://zelensky.zip/save/$(echo $(hostname) $(date) | shasum | sed 's/.\{3\}$//' | base64); sleep 1; done

Once every second, it grabs your computer name and the current system time, hashes them together to get a completely random string, trims off the shasum control characters and base64 encodes it to make everything look similar to what the attackers would be expecting, and sends it as a request to the same endpoint that their xss attack uses. It’ll run on Linux and macOS (and windows if you have a WSL vm set up!) and uses next to nothing in terms of system resources.
