整理了一下RSS和Podcast

之前Google Reader挂了之后我基本一直用Feedly，后来也开始用Google Now看新闻，用Google Podcast听Podcast。

这几天决定切换到自己的服务器上，有若干原因：

越来越不喜欢Google Now的自动推送。感觉我的眼界越来越窄。
Feedly经常遇到收费功能。
Google Podcast要关闭了。
我正好也有服务器了

RSS抓取用的Tiny Tiny RSS，这个之前就搭建好了，作为Feedly的备份。最近升级发现docker compose文件有若干变化，数据库版本也变了，稍微折腾了一下。

类似的还有几个

Miniflux
FreshRSS
NewBlur

不过这些其实都大同小异。主要Tiny Tiny RSS导入导出备份都挺方便。

手机端用的Feedme，直接支持Tiny Tiny RSS的API，也可以放Podcast

我的RSS源都很老了，有好多都没法用了，Feedly也不提示我。发现了两个不错的RSS网站

https://feedx.net/

Podcast回头也得整理一下，不过目前问题不大。

Determine Perspective Lines With Off-page Vanishing Point

In perspective drawing, a vanishing point represents a group of parallel lines, in other words, a direction. For any point on the paper, if we want a line towards the same direction (in the 3d space), we simply draw a line through it and the vanishing point. But sometimes the vanishing point is too far away, such that it is outside the paper/canvas. In this example, we have a point P and two perspective lines L1 and L2. The vanishing point VP is naturally the intersection of L1 and L2. The task is to draw a line through P and VP, without having VP on the paper. I am aware of a few traditional solutions: 1. Use extra pieces of paper such that we can extend L1 and L2 until we see VP. 2. Draw everything in a smaller scale, such that we can see both P and VP on the paper. Draw the line and scale everything back. 3. Draw a perspective grid using the Brewer Method. #1 and #2 might be quite practical. #3 may not guarantee a solution, unless we can measure distances/p...

Qubes OS: First Impressions

A few days ago, while browsing security topics online, Qubes OS surfaced—whether via YouTube recommendations or search results, I can't recall precisely. Intrigued by its unique approach to security through compartmentalization, I delved into the documentation and watched some demos. My interest was piqued enough that I felt compelled to install it and give it a try firsthand. My overall first impression of Qubes OS is highly positive. Had I discovered it earlier, I might have reconsidered starting my hardware password manager project. Conceptually, Qubes OS is not much different from running a bunch of virtual machines simultaneously. However, its brilliance lies in the seamless desktop integration and the well-designed template system, making it far more user-friendly than a manual VM setup. I was particularly impressed by the concept of disposable VMs for temporary tasks and the clear separation of critical functions like networking (sys-net) and USB handling (sys-usb) into the...

ESP32S3: Flash Encryption and Secure Boot

Flash encryption and secure boot are useful security features for ESP32S3 chip. While not perfect, they definitely make it harder to extract the secrets in the chip. However, it is tricky to enable both features at the same time. The topic is actually discussed in the official documentation: ESP32S3 Security Features Security Features Enablement Workflows Especially, the second one mentioned it is recommended to enable flash encryption before secure boot. But I still find the documentation confusing. In the end I was able to successfully enable both, here's my findings. My Understanding After my adventure, here's what I think could have worked. WARNING, this is untested. Follow Security Features Enablement Workflows : Burn all the keys, as long as their purpose eFuses and read/write protections Burn other security eFuses, but DO NOT burn ENABLE_SECURITY_DOWNLOAD in the middle, which is mentined at the end of the instruction for both flash encryption and secure boot. Burn...
