LinuxLists.cc - a threaded LKML archive
Hey everyone,
I created a threaded Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) archive called [LinuxLists.cc](https://LinuxLists.cc). It archives the main linux-kernel mailing list, along with linux-kernel-announce, linux-ext4, linux-wireless and other feature-specific lists. It is designed like a message board, with features like user profiles, search, RSS feeds and permalinks.
It's been a fun project to work on. Please check it out and let me know how you like it, or if you have any suggestions!

Is it possible to torrent over anonsurf? PopOS / Linux 19.04 Gnome 3.32
I am using PopOS and fairly new to linux world. I got anonsurf installed, however not sure why my torrents are not starting to download while its on. Any help on this is highly appreciated and thank you all in advance!
I am using qbittorrent currently. If there are any suggestions on staying 'safe' with IP masking other than the anonsurf method, please let suggest!

HiddenWasp: New Malware Targets Linux Machines To Control Them Remotely
The first step of the HiddenWasp Linux malware involves the initial noscript for the deployment of malware. The hidden noscript uses a user named 'sftp' and cleans the system to eradicate older versions of malware in case the machine was already infected.

netdata, the open-source real-time performance and health monitoring, released v1.15 !
Hi all,
we just released **netdata v1.15** !
This release contains 11 Bugs Fixes and 30 Improvements.
We are very happy and proud to include two major improvements in this release, an aggregated node view and the new database engine.
You can read about Netdata Cloud and the future of netdata here: https://blog.netdata.cloud/posts/netdata-cloud-announcement/
**Other major additions**
We have added support for the **AWS Kinesis backend** and new collectors for **OpenVPN**, the **Tengine web server**, **ScaleIO (VxFlex OS)**, **ioping-like latency metrics** and **Energi Core node instances**.
We now have a new, **"text-only" chart type**, **cpu limits for v2 cgroups**, **docker swarm metrics** and improved documentation.
We continued improving the **Kubernetes helmchart** with liveness probes for slaves, persistence options, a fix for a **Cannot allocate memory** issue and easy configuration for the kubelet, kube-proxy and coredns collectors.
Finally, we built a process to quickly replace any problematic nightly builds and added more automated CI tests to prevent such builds from being published in the first place.
**Improvements**
- Support for aggregate node view,
- Database engine,
- New collector modules:
- Go.d collectors for OpenVPN, the Tengine web server and ScaleIO (VxFlex OS) instances,
- Monitor disk access latency like ioping does,
- Energi Core daemon monitoring, suits other Bitcoin forks,
- Collector improvements:
- Add docker swarm manager metrics to the go.d docker_engine collector,
- Implement unified cgroup cpu limit,
- python.d.plugin: Allow monitoring of HTTP(S) endpoints which require POST data and make the UrlService more flexible,
- Support the AWS Kinesis backend for long-term storage,
- Add a new "text-only" chart renderer,
- Packaging and CI improvements:
- We can now fix more quickly any problematic published builds via a new manual deployment procedure,
- We added more tests to our nightly builds, to catch more errors before publishing images,
- API Improvements:
- Smarter caching of API calls. Do not cache alarms and info api calls and extend no-cache headers,
- Extend the api/v1/info call response with system and collector information,
- k6 noscript for API load testing,
- Kubernetes helmchart improvements:
- Added the init container, where sysctl params could be managed, to bypass the Cannot allocate memory issue,
- Better startup/shutdown of slaves and reduced memory usage with liveness/readiness probes and default memory mode none,
- Added the option of overriding the default settings for kubelet, kubeproxy and coredns collectors via values.yaml,
- Make the use of persistent volumes optional, add apiVersion to fix linting errors and correct the location of the env field,
- Fix incorrect parameter names in the README,
- Documentation improvements
**Bug Fixes**
- Prowl notifications were not being sent, unless another notification method was also active,
- Fix exception handling in the python.d plugin,
- The node applications group did not include all node processes,
- Installation would show incorrect message "FAILED Cannot install netdata init service." in some cases,
- The nvidia_smi collector displayed incorrect power usage,
- The python.d plugin would sometimes hang, because it lacked a connect timeout,
- The mongodb collector raised errors due to various KeyErrors,
- The smartd_log collector would show incorrect temperature values,
- charts.d plugins would fail on docker, when using the timeout command,
- Docker image had plugins not executable by user netdata,
- Docker image was missing the lsns command, used to match network interfaces to containers.

Replacing getty with ngetty on Debian
ngetty, is a single-process getty replacement, instead of running 6 getty processes consuming 2MB each, you can use a single ngetty process using < 1MB.
Gravit Designer - Best Design tool for Linux
As a professional graphic designer/UX designer, who recently came over from Mac and Adobe, Gravit Designer is far and away the best graphic design tool out there on Linux. At least for what I do. Even the free version. Everything else falls terribly short in one area or another. But this one is the most consistent and easy to pick up. Definitely give it a try.
