I pwned half of America's fast food chains, simultaneously
There's a very good relatively new open-source GUI firewall app like this called Portmaster:
https://safing.io/
It's available for Windows and Linux

Port forwarding done by university network admin, they opened every port past 1024???
You can get your own firewall app. Portmaster by safing.io lets you open and close what ever ports you want on your windows system

Portmaster Application Firewall v1.4
For Context: Technical Introduction from https://github.com/safing/portmaster#technical-introduction
Portmaster is a privacy suite for your Windows and Linux desktop.
Base Technology
- Portmaster integrates into network stack using nfqueue on Linux and a kernel driver (WFP) on Windows.
- Packets are intercepted at the raw packet level - every packet is seen and can be stopped.
- Ownership of connections is found using eBPF and `/proc` on Linux and a kernel driver and the IP Helper API (`iphlpapi.dll`) on Windows.
- Most settings can be defined per app, which can be matched in different ways.
- Support for special processes with weird or concealed paths/actors:
--- Snap, AppImage and Script support on Linux
--- Windows Store apps and svchost.exe system services support on Windows
- Everything is 100% local on your device. (except the SPN, naturally)
--- Updates are fully signed and downloaded automatically.
--- Intelligence data (block lists, geoip) is downloaded and applied automatically.
- The Portmaster Core Service runs as a system service, the UI elements (App, Notifier) run in user context.
- The main UI still uses electron as a wrapper :/ - but this will change in the future. You can also open the UI in the browser
Feature: Secure DNS
- Portmaster intercepts "astray" DNS queries and reroutes them to itself for seamless integration.
- DNS queries are resolved by the default or configured DoT/DoH resolvers.
- Full support for split horizon and horizon validation to defend against rebinding attacks.
Feature: Privacy Filter
- Define allowed network scopes: Localhost, LAN, Internet, P2P, Inbound.
- Easy rules based on Internet entities: Domain, IP, Country and more.
- Filter Lists block common malware, ad, tracker domains etc.
Feature: Network History ($)
- Record connections and their details in a local database and search all of it later
- Auto-delete old history or delete on demand
Feature: Bandwidth Visibility ($)
- Monitor bandwidth usage per connection and app
Feature: SPN - Safing Privacy Network ($)
- A Privacy Network aimed at use cases "between" VPN and Tor.
- Uses onion encryption over multiple hops just like Tor.
- Routes are chosen to cover most distance within the network to increase privacy.
- Exits are chosen near the destination server. This automatically geo-unblocks in many cases.
- Exclude apps and domains/entities from using SPN.
- Change routing algorithm and focus per app.
- Nodes are hosted by Safing (company behind Portmaster) and the community.
- Speeds are pretty decent (>100MBit/s).

Thoughts on safing.io
Portmaster itself is open source (https://github.com/safing/portmaster)
-
Count me out on next releases
Then install https://safing.io/ (Portmaster); it's free.

DHH: VSCode and WSL makes Windows awesome for web development
Well, my Ubuntu with https://vscodium.com/ is certainly much better for web development than fucking windows. I boot windows only for gaming. I detest their spyware adware OS. Furthermore, I detest "99% open source with 1% bullshit on top of it" products like Chrome and VScode. I will never use the official versions of such programs. I use Brave to use Blink/Chromium, it also has the benefit of not suffering from the v3 manifest bullshit they pulled to attack and weaken Adblockers.
WSL is cool and all, but why deal with all the quirks and issue that come with it, why lorn how it works and all the limitations ... when you can just have it all natively the way it was invented and supposed to work?

JetBrains' unremovable AI assistant meets irresistible outcry
Seems like you still lose the Python plugin and remote extensions? Missing the wsl one is pretty rough. If you’re comfortable with vim (or want to be) I can’t recommend neovim enough.
