  • I’m guessing some people don’t know (or forgot) that site-to-site and remote access VPN’s are a thing, and was the initial purpose of VPN’s. Masking or hiding your location became a benefit after the fact, and todays more common client VPN is technically a remote access VPN with a new purpose.

    Remote access VPN’s are a very common attack vector for companies, look up companies compromised with Fortinet gear and its typically through the firewalls VPN.

    In fact, a primary purpose of a VPN, spoofing your IP/geolocation, pretending you are someone you aren’t… is pretty much antithetical to a highly controlled system of users with varying levels of access to specific, private areas of that system.

    Most modern remote access VPN’s do exactly that, so it is not antithetical at all and is how most client VPN’s keep you from accessing other users data. I would encourage you to read up on WireGuard and the like, they are fun to learn about and awesome tools when configured properly.

    Also, we removed the above comment because the last sentence was fairly rude and violates rule 3 @sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com

    @L4s@lemmy.world’s operator here, and I’d be more than happy to answer any questions you have.

    Like the majority of content bots on Lemmy, L4s utilizes Reddit for its posts, and I’ve been working on adding a few RSS feeds to branch things out more and better abide with the newer bot rules.

    As for “choosing” what to post, it currently checks the most upvoted posts for selected subreddits and the up/down vote ratio, then if it matches the set threshold it will check if it has posted that link before, as long as everything lines up it will post.

    Initially I had it set to once an hour on this community, things here gained a lot of traction a month later so I scaled it back to every other hour. In the near future I will be limiting it again to every 3 or 4 hours as we have continued to grow since last months decrease in posts.

    As it says in the bio, the goal with L4s is to jump start communities, it won’t be here forever. If you have an issue please let me know!

    Also thanks for the tag @krayj@lemmy.world!


  • The Top Rate shall be $35.94 plus the general wage increases provided in Section 1 above.

    Increases are:

    • 2023 two dollars and seventy-five cents ($2.75)
    • 2024 seventy-five cents ($0.75)
    • 2025 seventy-five cents ($0.75)
    • 2026 one dollar ($1.00)
    • 2027 two dollars and twenty-five cents ($2.25)

    So that means in 2027, it’ll be $43.44/hour, which at 40 hours a week comes to $90,355.20/year. To reach $170k/year, they’d have to work 75.26 hours a week, I know drivers do a lot of OT, but I’m not sure about that much!

    Edit: To put more perspective on this, 170k/year at 40 hours is $81.73/hour, not too far from double their $43.44/hour
