So I decided today that I’ll try the Snap Package. There are some tweaks to do, in order to run Snapd on LXC. But I’ll walk you trough this. I assume you already have a working Debian LXC container. Prepare the Container first, SSH into your Proxmox Server and edit your LXC Containers config vim /etc/pve/lxc/CONTAINER_NUMBER.conf First, make sure you have fuse=1, enabled, then add the last 3 lines from below https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/install-wireguard-on-proxmox-lxc/ Fri, 27 Mar 2026 22:56:08 +0100 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/install-wireguard-on-proxmox-lxc/ In Proxmox, create a new Linux container using an Debian template (version 13 was used here).

How I became a tinfoil-hat. The nickname has several origins: the mentally ill tinfoil-hat, the privacy tinfoil-hat and the conspiracy tinfoil-hat The Mentally ill Tinfoil-hat Way To Psychiatry I don’t want to go into detail about my upbringing, but let’s just say I had a troubled childhood and adolescence. I was both a bully at times and a victim at others. My stepdad was a complete tyrant, and I struggled in school while my parents frequently fought, sometimes even physically, right in front of me. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/psychiatry-recollections-1/ Sun, 30 Nov 2025 07:09:23 +0100 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/psychiatry-recollections-1/ Tales from the Psychiatry I was admitted to psychiatry several times, beginning at age 15. I thought the experiences might be worth sharing, so here is what I witnessed in the youth unit. The “Nazi” Hip‑Hopper A patient who identified as a Christian Nazi Hip-Hopper believed that God would forgive him no matter what he did. He once urinated into an apple‑juice bottle that someone later drank. During a conversation about vacations, he learned that the Thai currency is called a “baht,” which sounds like “bud” (marijuana). https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/why-we-need-the-darknet/ Sat, 22 Nov 2025 17:12:48 +0100 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/why-we-need-the-darknet/ The Darknet Isn’t Just for Criminals You’ve probably heard scary stories: “The darknet is where drugs and hackers live. Some of that is true, but it’s like saying “the internet is only for p0rn and scams.” The darknet is just a corner of the internet built for one thing: nobody can see who you are or where you are. Imagine you could walk into a library wearing a perfect disguise — no ID, no cameras, no questions. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/winter/ Sat, 22 Nov 2025 13:52:54 +0100 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/winter/ The winter seemed never-ending, and the pack was dying of hunger. The leader of the pack, the oldest of them all, was out in front comforting the young wolves, telling them that spring was coming, but at a certain point, one young wolf decided to stop. He says he has had enough of cold and hunger, and he says he is going to live among men because the important thing is to stay alive. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/setup-kubernetes-cluster/ Mon, 13 Oct 2025 16:13:32 +0200 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/setup-kubernetes-cluster/ Installing Kubernetes Here is how i install my Kubernetes cluster.

This could lead to individuals face home raids for posting critical statements, remarks perceived as offensive and memes on social media. Even before such laws, there were cases of authorities raiding homes in Germany for insults like calling a politician a “Schwachkopf” (idiot) or in the UK for criticizing grooming gangs. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/tui-software/ Tue, 01 Jul 2025 17:34:31 +0200 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/tui-software/ TUI (Text User Interface) programs are interactive command-line applications commonly used on Linux and other systems. They often rely on libraries like ncurses or dialog for functionality. While I don’t use many TUI programs regularly, I can’t do without the following: VIM Vim is a text editor that works seamlessly on both headless servers and desktop environments. My Vim configuration is quite basic but gets the job done. I haven’t felt the need to create anything elaborate, partly because I’m lazy and prefer a consistent experience across all my servers. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/bookmarks-2025/ Tue, 03 Jun 2025 22:15:36 +0200 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/bookmarks-2025/ Here are some Cool Pages I’ve bookmarked, thought you’d like it Tinfoil-hat’s sites Site Description URL Tinfoil-Tube Peertube https://tube.tinfoil-hat.net/ Wiki Bookstack https://wiki.tinfoil-hat.net/ Social Pleroma https://social.tinfoil-hat.net/ Web Services Site Description URL Pingability check online status of websites https://pingability.com/ Tablesgenerator generate tables https://www.tablesgenerator.com/ NginxConfig generate Nginx configs https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tools/nginx?global.app.lang=de Pinetools Online Swiss Knife https://pinetools.com/ Patorjk figlet Generator https://patorjk.com/software/taag/ BugMeNot Share Internet Logins https://bugmenot.com/ Unsee.cc Tempoary Image Uploader https://unsee.cc/ Crontab Guru Cronjob Generator https://crontab.guru/ Is My Port Open check for open Ports https://ismyportopen. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/browsing-and-email/ Mon, 12 May 2025 02:43:40 +0200 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/browsing-and-email/ Hey, Here i ´d like to show how I do my Browsing and do E-Mails, Calendar and Contacts Since Mozilla becomes more and sinister, I switched to Librewolf and Betterbird.

Upgrade to latest release Upgrading FreeBSD from one minor version to another, such as from FreeBSD 14.0 to 14.2, can typically be done using the freebsd-update tool. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to perform the upgrade: https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/radicale/ Mon, 20 Jan 2025 03:04:09 +0100 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/radicale/ 1. Install Packages apt update apt dist-upgrade apt install radicale apache2-utils 2. Authentication In its default configuration Radicale doesn’t check usernames or passwords. If the server is reachable over a network, you should change this. First a users file with all usernames and passwords must be created. It can be stored in the same directory as the configuration file. The users file can be created and managed with htpasswd: # Create a new htpasswd file with the user "user1" using SHA-512 as hash method $htpasswd -c /etc/radicale/users username New password: Re-type new password: # Add another user $ htpasswd -C /etc/radicale/users user2 New password: Re-type new password: 3. https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/create-a-webdav-server/ Mon, 20 Jan 2025 01:42:59 +0100 https://tinfoil-hat.net/posts/create-a-webdav-server/ Step 1: Install Required Packages First, ensure that you have Apache2 and the necessary modules installed. You can install them using the package manager for your distribution. For example, on Ubuntu or Debian, you can run: sudo apt install apache2 apache2-utils libapache2-mod-dav libapache2-mod-dav_fs Step 2: Enable Required Apache Modules You need to enable the WebDAV modules in Apache.
