We are also preparing thank-you notes for the teaching assistants. This time, we asked 小妘 to help design the template, so I want to record how to import Excel data and apply the template in Indesign. Prepare Excel document First, we organize the data in the Excel document and put the “data name” in the first row. The data name here will replace the text in Indesign, so it is strongly recommended to use English. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/configuring-lacp-link-aggregation-in-pve-with-arista/ Tue, 07 Feb 2023 02:39:05 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/configuring-lacp-link-aggregation-in-pve-with-arista/ Recently, we encountered a machine using two NVIDIA Mellanox ConnectX-4 network cards, with maximum speed support of 25G. However, since our optical module is only 10G, and Arista 7050QX also cannot support 25G Only, we decided to set up LACP. Environment Arista 7050QX-32S Proxmox VE ovs-vsctl (Open vSwitch) 2.15.0 LACP Configuration on Arista This is divided into two steps: Establish a Port Channel Assign Port Channel to physical network cards Note: Keep the switchport part as is, and remember to set up both Port Channel and Ethernet Interface on both ends. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/upgrade-c3048tp-from-6.x-to-9.x/ Mon, 06 Feb 2023 01:51:10 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/upgrade-c3048tp-from-6.x-to-9.x/ Recently, I had a N3K-C3048TP-1GE switch with an outdated version causing some issues, so I decided to upgrade to a new version to solve these problems! Major version upgrades have certain risks, so please read this article and the official document before deciding whether to proceed! Environment Before Upgrading Model: N3K-C3048TP-1GE-SUP NXOS: 6.0(2)U3(4) Important reminder: Please follow the guide to upgrade this switch and do not upgrade to the latest version at once! https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/how-to-upgrade-ios-rc/ Thu, 19 Jan 2023 19:00:47 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/how-to-upgrade-ios-rc/ Recently, iOS 16.3 RC was released, and as usual, the release of the RC version means that the official version update will be released in a week as well, and the two versions are no different. So, let’s take a look at how to upgrade your iOS device to RC/Beta version. How to Get Testing Qualifications There are basically two ways to download the iOS Beta version testing qualifications: Apple Beta Software Program Apple Developer Program Apple Beta Software Program Apple Beta Software Program is a public testing program provided by Apple. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/arista-mgmt/ Tue, 05 Jul 2022 02:58:47 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/arista-mgmt/ Recently deployed an Arista switch.

It’s mean they didn’t need multihoming, so he decided to transfer AS Number to me. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/multi-pppoe-in-linux/ Mon, 19 Jul 2021 08:47:55 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/multi-pppoe-in-linux/ I've been using Linux as a router for quite some time. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/enable-vrf-linux-krenel/ Tue, 06 Jul 2021 02:26:41 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/enable-vrf-linux-krenel/ Recently, I installed a new router and found that the VRF module did not load successfully because I was using the image provided by the service provider. root@eu-router:/opt/tunnel# modprobe vrf modprobe: FATAL: Module vrf not found in directory /lib/modules/5.4.0-72-generic My Linux Kernel is 5.4.0-72-generic, so I installed the extension package. apt install linux-modules-extra-`uname -r` Then, load the VRF module again. If there is no response, it means that it was successful! https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/using-as-set-to-make-filter/ Sun, 27 Jun 2021 05:35:35 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/using-as-set-to-make-filter/ Recently, in order to establish BGP Peers with some friends who are new to the field, I also taught them how to use AS-SET for filtering. What is AS-SET AS-SET is an object that can add ASN and AS-SET. Usually used to filter routes exchanged through the BGP protocol. (such as BGP Peer Neighbor, Internet Exchange Route Server, etc.) We usually query all Route Objects in this AS-SET through Whois and recursion. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/frrouting-pbr/ Tue, 18 May 2021 16:23:58 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/frrouting-pbr/ A few days ago, I was adjusting the network architecture in my lab to allow everything to go out through VPN and access my intranet. This led me to research Policy Based Routing (PBR). I initially used VRF (Layer 3 switching) to isolate my network, but this prevented me from running my services on the VRF interface. This meant that I couldn’t set up DoH on the router. Later, I discovered that I could use other methods to achieve PBR without using VRF. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ospf-and-bgp/ Sun, 16 May 2021 22:17:25 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ospf-and-bgp/ For a long time, my friends and I have had an intranet similar to DN42. We use VPN to establish BGP connections and deploy this intranet using various devices in different areas. P.S. Currently, there are about 46 routes. Currently, I am building a BGP peer with other people from one point and using static routes to handle internal routing. For example, if the device 10.121.23.242 wants to reach a device 10. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ubuntu-53-port-already-in-use/ Wed, 12 May 2021 20:58:02 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ubuntu-53-port-already-in-use/ Recently, in order to install a DoH Client on my router and set up a DNS server for internal network devices, I found that Ubuntu often uses port 53. After checking, I found that this was caused by systemd-resolve, so I found these methods to disable it! Before that, if you find that port 53 is being used, you can use the following command to see which process is using it. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/set_tmpl_file_as_html_in_vscode/ Sun, 25 Apr 2021 09:57:13 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/set_tmpl_file_as_html_in_vscode/ When I started learning Golang recently, I used .tmpl as a web template. However, I found that it couldn’t handle formatting automatically like HTML files. P.S. Even with related plugins installed, it only processes .html files. After checking some related documents, I found that I can modify user settings to handle it. Here are two methods: The first method is to directly modify the settings.json file and add the following code at the bottom: https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/hosting-a-minecraft-server-on-linux/ Mon, 12 Apr 2021 17:56:08 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/hosting-a-minecraft-server-on-linux/ Recently, a friend of mine wanted to set up a Minecraft server on Linux, so I decided to write down the process here! Environment In this setup, I used the following operating system and packages: Ubuntu 20.04 Server byobu openjdk-8-jdk spigot 1.16.5 Update System and Install Packages To update the system, we enter the following command: apt update -y apt upgrade -y Next, install Java and Byobu: apt install openjdk-8-jdk byobu -y Deploy Minecraft Server First, we create a folder to place the server files: https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/install-dhcp-server-on-linux/ Sun, 11 Apr 2021 09:37:30 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/install-dhcp-server-on-linux/ I often use Linux systems as routers for the simple reason that virtual machines require them. But I thought, since I’m doing it anyway, why not write a blog post about it? So… let’s get started with the installation! Installing isc-dhcp-server First, we need to install a package called isc-dhcp-server. sudo apt install isc-dhcp-server Configuring DHCP Server After installation, we need to edit the configuration file /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf. Here’s an example: https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/pin-any-tweet-on-twitter/ Wed, 07 Apr 2021 19:00:27 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/pin-any-tweet-on-twitter/ Today, while browsing Twitter, I came across an interesting tweet… So I immediately shared it with @edisonlee55 It’s obvious that this person has retweeted someone else’s tweet and pinned it to their own profile page. This seems normal, but in fact, “we can only pin tweets that we ourselves have posted.” When we click on a tweet that we retweeted, we don’t see the “pin tweet” option. So… we need a little trick! https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/iptables_nat/ Mon, 08 Mar 2021 13:20:00 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/iptables_nat/ Recently, Xiaoyi installed Ubuntu 20.04 on a computer at home and used it as a soft router. But Xiaoyi found that the computer couldn’t connect to the internet! After using mtr to trace the route, we found that the route could not go beyond the Gateway. So we captured packets on the router and found that our internal IP was sent to the ISP, but there was no response. If the ISP hasn’t configured it properly, it can easily lead to IP Spoofing. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/checkm8-bypass/ Thu, 04 Mar 2021 00:35:46 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/checkm8-bypass/ This article is also published on “蘿蔔’s Blog” [Note] Please do not use for commercial or illegal purposes. This software was not developed by the author. The author is not responsible for any controversies arising from its use. To bypass activation lock, you need a Mac computer. The author tested the software on their own device with their own account (iPhone 7 Plus, iOS 14.3). Sometimes, due to certain reasons, when an iPhone is reset or updated without turning off “Find My”, you will be asked for the Apple ID password to disable activation lock when resetting it. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/from-wordpress-to-hugo/ Wed, 10 Feb 2021 14:27:17 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/from-wordpress-to-hugo/ After registering my first domain, steveyigame.com, in 2018, I tried to set up my first WordPress blog. At that time, I was also learning to use Linux systems and came to understand the difference between cloud drives (like Google Drive) and file servers. Why Switch to Hugo? Is WordPress Not Good? I believe there is no such thing as good or bad, it’s all personal preference. However, as I gradually learned about backend development, I thought, “If it can be a static website, let it be static and don’t let the website server handle things. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/bgp-asn-specify-gateway/ Sat, 06 Feb 2021 02:13:10 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/bgp-asn-specify-gateway/ In January of last year, I applied for my first ASN - AS209557, and did a lot of cool experiments! Today, I reconfigured my home router and can now designate which route to take based on ASN. First, let me introduce my router information Ubuntu 20.04 software router Bird2 (Internet Routing Daemon) Network environment (including VPN tunnel) Chunghwa Telecom PPPoe non-fixed IP 100/40M To TANet’s WireGuard Tunnel To GCP’s WireGuard Tunnel https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/join-manrs-as-participants/ Mon, 25 Jan 2021 00:03:31 +0800 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/join-manrs-as-participants/ At the end of last year, I submitted an application for MANRS for SteveYi Network Service. At the beginning of this year, we passed the review and officially became a participant in MANRS! Our member introduction can be found here: https://www.manrs.org/isps/participants/entry/1484/ So, let’s talk about how we implement MANRS policies. MANRS has four main policies, which are: Prevent propagation of incorrect routing information Prevent traffic with incorrect spoofed source IP addresses Promote coordination between network operators Facilitate global operational communication and coordination https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/make-internal-network-by-bgp/ Sun, 24 Jan 2021 02:00:00 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/make-internal-network-by-bgp/ Hi! Long time no see! In early 2020, I obtained my first ASN number - AS209557 I also used IP Addresses defined by RFC 1918, and with some friends, I built a large internal network using BGP and Internet tunnels. So let’s get started! First, we use Ubuntu 20.04 to establish a tunnel and establish BGP peerings with others. Usually, I use GRE, SIT, or WireGuard. Among them, GRE or SIT tunnels are non-encrypted tunnels that can be viewed on the public network. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/google-adssettings/ Tue, 19 Jan 2021 13:00:00 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/google-adssettings/ This article was supposed to be published in December of last year, but it happened to coincide with server maintenance, so it hasn’t been released until now. One day, when the author was modifying their Google account information, they accidentally discovered the “Ad Settings” section, which had quite a bit of information. The data comes from various records of Google and YouTube under the login status, as well as the basic information filled out when applying for a Google account. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/linux-mount-googledrive-not-required-brain/ Tue, 19 Jan 2021 12:25:49 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/linux-mount-googledrive-not-required-brain/ This tutorial uses the software google-drive-ocamlfuse and the demonstration is based on the Ubuntu-based Zorin OS 15.2 system. First, you need to add the software source. Please enter the following command in the terminal (you can directly copy and paste this command): sudo add-apt-repository ppa:alessandro-strada/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install google-drive-ocamlfuse Note: The installation process may require a password. Some Linux distributions may not display the entered password. After typing, press Return to continue. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/use-redeb-to-backup-jb-tweaks/ Sat, 28 Nov 2020 04:39:14 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/use-redeb-to-backup-jb-tweaks/ A long time ago, the author encountered a situation where a plugin disappeared from another source, preventing them from installing the desired plugin. However, because the plugin was installed on another device, they were able to back up the deb file and install it on the desired device. This article is for those who want to back up their plugins! Redeb and the backed up deb files (using Zebra as an example) https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/are-you-mu-er/ Wed, 25 Nov 2020 02:31:14 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/are-you-mu-er/ This website provides six sets of music in random order, each set containing a 128Kbps MP3/320Kbps MP3/ uncompressed WAV file. The test is to see if you can identify the file with the best sound quality. After making a choice, the correct answer will be revealed. Friendly reminder: You can turn up the volume to listen for details. Details can be heard more clearly in the high-pitched parts (so the choice of device is important! https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/autodraw/ Wed, 25 Nov 2020 02:25:44 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/autodraw/ (This article was co-edited by SteveYi and 蘿蔔) A few days ago, during class, SteveYi’s teacher introduced a fun website to the class. AutoDraw is a website developed by Google. Google actually registered this domain in 1998 (or someone else registered it and then sold it to Google)~ I can’t believe I only found out about this website now! SteveYi was also curious about how this interesting thing works, so he played around with it and did a little research. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/get-asn-from-ripe/ Sat, 21 Nov 2020 08:39:28 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/get-asn-from-ripe/ Today we will talk about how to obtain your own ASN through LIR in RIPE. First of all, some people may wonder: Why choose RIPE? Isn’t APNIC or ARIN a good choice? The author has two ASNs, one under RIPE and the other under APNIC. When the author makes changes to some whois information, RIPE allows direct web access to make changes, while APNIC requires sending emails… which is more troublesome (actually it’s about the same). https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/create-object-in-ripe-database/ Sat, 21 Nov 2020 08:37:20 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/create-object-in-ripe-database/ In this article, we will share with you how to register MAINTAINER, PERSON/ROLE, and ORGANIZATION objects in the RIPE DataBase. These objects are also necessary to register ASN. If you want to apply for ASN, you can refer to this tutorial. First, we need to register for a RIPE account registration website here. After completing the registration, we enter the RIPE Database and click “Create an Object”. Then we select the first “role and maintainer pair”. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/using-wireguard-to-make-intranet/ Fri, 20 Nov 2020 18:31:04 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/using-wireguard-to-make-intranet/ Hi everyone, today I’m going to share how to use WireGuard to build an internal network. Previously, I shared how to install WireGuard on Linux systems. This time, we will use WireGuard to build an internal network. Why Build an Internal Network? Why does the author call this an “internal network”? Because the author may be in different places and wants to use this opportunity to add them all to the same LAN. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ntp-clock-autoset/ Fri, 20 Nov 2020 15:52:24 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ntp-clock-autoset/ The clock is a very important thing for computers. It is not just about displaying the time in the status bar (or taskbar). If the clock is not correct (deviates too much from the actual time in the real world), it may cause some strange phenomena on the computer, such as: unable to view web pages (certificate issues), and even cause software crashes if the time difference is too great. Timeout login of various programs is also easy to occur when the time deviation is too large. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/iperf3/ Sun, 08 Nov 2020 13:26:11 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/iperf3/ Recently, I replaced my switch and to test the speed of the internal network, I found this tool - iperf3 It is a testing program that supports Windows, Linux, and macOS and is mainly operated through commands. I often use it to test the speed between two different servers in different locations. So, here’s how to install it: First, go to the iperf3 official website and find the corresponding system (choose Windows for Windows, macOS for macOS, and Linux for Linux). https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/apple-spotlight/ Sun, 18 Oct 2020 09:02:50 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/apple-spotlight/ Many people have bought iPhones, iPads, iPod touches, or Macs, but they don’t know that the built-in Spotlight has many useful features. Let’s take a look! How to use Spotlight (the method may be different in earlier versions): On iOS/iPadOS, swipe down on the home screen; on macOS, click on the magnifying glass in the menu bar (top right corner), or press “command” + “space bar”. Note: The search function of Spotlight and Siri has improved with each version, so some older versions may not have certain features. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/xbox-game-bar/ Wed, 07 Oct 2020 02:09:56 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/xbox-game-bar/ Xbox Game Bar is a feature of Windows 10 that offers recording and streaming, performance monitoring, Spotify music control, and more. It can also be pinned to the screen. The best part is that Game Bar focuses system resources on the game, so players with lower-end computer configurations can enjoy smoother gameplay! Note: The author used Windows 10 (version 2004) and Xbox Game Bar (version 5.420) as examples. Different versions may look different. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/windows-backup/ Fri, 28 Aug 2020 09:09:08 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/windows-backup/ Mac has a “Time Machine” that can easily backup the entire computer, and Windows also has a similar function! In simple terms, it will backup the entire computer, disk drive or folder (depending on the settings). The first backup will be a complete backup, so it will take longer. After the first backup, it will only backup the files that have been modified or created since the last backup to save space and time. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/mac-hostname/ Sat, 22 Aug 2020 08:25:56 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/mac-hostname/ When we open the terminal, we will see a string of characters that says “username@hostname”, for example, John@Johns-MacBook. The hostname can theoretically be changed from the “Sharing” section in System Preferences. However, for some reason, it may not work on some computers. After searching for a few days, I finally found the answer: we can change the hostname from the terminal. First, please open the terminal and enter the following command. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/html-gmail/ Fri, 21 Aug 2020 15:32:52 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/html-gmail/ The author has an old PC with 1GB of memory and Windows XP, which is suitable for light document use (Windows XP only requires 128MB of memory to operate). It can handle browsing some websites, but some large websites take a long time to load or cannot be used normally. If it is a general article webpage, it can still be managed. The problem is that the author wants to use the Gmail web version to send and receive emails, but it takes nearly a minute to load the standard Gmail webpage when the internet is smooth, and scrolling through emails is a disaster. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/macbook-without-a-battery/ Tue, 18 Aug 2020 13:16:25 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/macbook-without-a-battery/ As someone who has used PCs since childhood, I only started using a MacBook Pro a few years ago when my family bought one (well, it’s not mine, I just borrow it for a long time 😂). The first laptop I owned was an IBM ThinkPad T43. When I got it, the battery was so old that it was almost useless (it lasted about 3 minutes and 42 seconds from boot to hibernation), so most of the time I removed the battery to reduce the weight, and only installed it when I needed to move between power outlets. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/macos-catalina-on-unsupport-mac/ Tue, 18 Aug 2020 10:41:18 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/macos-catalina-on-unsupport-mac/ Some computers may still work perfectly fine, but they may be removed from the upgrade list by official sources due to multiple considerations, such as performance, commercial, or functional considerations. Isn’t it a shame? At this time, dosdude1 has solved this problem with the Catalina Patcher. This is the official support list: Screenshot from Apple official website Below is the Catalina Patcher support list, which is consistent with the OS X El Capitan system requirements: https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/macos-recovery/ Sat, 15 Aug 2020 07:25:12 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/macos-recovery/ There are many reasons why we may need to reinstall our operating system, such as the system becoming slow due to too many installed programs, not wanting to delete programs one by one, or switching to a new disk drive, downgrading from a beta version to a stable release, or unexpected power outages during system upgrades. Mac comes with a useful tool that can help us reinstall the operating system easily. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/bgp-network-peer/ Tue, 11 Aug 2020 18:56:26 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/bgp-network-peer/ As a child, I often struggled with managing my home network. For example, my home had three floors and three routers. I wanted to make sure that devices connected to each router could communicate with each other. However, if I turned on DHCP Server on each of the routers, the routers would become independent networks that couldn’t communicate with each other. Later, I discovered that by using a bridge to turn one router into a DHCP server and the others into AP or switch, I could achieve the same network and interconnectivity. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/cloudready/ Mon, 10 Aug 2020 15:10:52 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/cloudready/ Have you ever experienced a situation where your old computer is struggling to handle basic tasks like document processing and web browsing? You may not want to use an outdated operating system that is no longer supported by the official provider, including the browser. In this case, you can download the latest version of CloudReady Home Edition to breathe new life into your computer. It comes with the latest browser and many Web Apps that you can use. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/horndis/ Sat, 08 Aug 2020 07:23:53 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/horndis/ Sometimes, for various reasons, you may not want to use Wi-Fi or a personal hotspot when using the internet, or your computer’s wireless network card may be blocked by surrounding objects, or even a black Apple computer may not have a compatible wireless network card. In these cases, using an Android phone as a network receiver is a good idea. macOS version 10.11 (El Captain) or higher is required, and this article demonstrates using macOS 10. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/no-win10-update/ Sat, 18 Jul 2020 14:37:57 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/no-win10-update/ Because Windows 10 updates often take up a lot of storage space and can often cause some inexplicable problems (such as the built-in search function not working), I discovered an effective way to block updates myself. First, open Start> Settings> Update & Security. Next, enter Windows Update settings and click on [Advanced options]. If there are available updates, it is recommended to update first before proceeding with the next operation. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/frrouting-install/ Sun, 12 Jul 2020 13:07:14 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/frrouting-install/ It’s been a while since I last shared anything! Recently, I have been learning about BGP knowledge and testing. Previously, I used Bird1 to broadcast BGP, but when I tried to peer with my friend, we couldn’t establish a connection (it was strange, but I could connect with IX). So I uninstalled Bird1 and installed FRRouting instead. FRRouting is a routing suite that comes from Quagga Fork, and its functionality is also very powerful (its commands are similar to Cisco or Quagga). https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/dynamic-lyrics-android/ Sat, 11 Jul 2020 10:00:12 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/dynamic-lyrics-android/ Last time, we introduced the comparison of free memberships among various streaming platforms. As you can see, many platforms have real-time lyrics. However, according to our testing, only Spotify Premium users can use them, and some platforms do not offer lyric services, which is a bit of a shame. Do you find it inconvenient to listen to free music on Spotify or other platforms without lyrics? If so, follow this article to solve this problem. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/no-premium-spotify-dynamic-lyrics/ Sat, 11 Jul 2020 07:31:26 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/no-premium-spotify-dynamic-lyrics/ Last time, I introduced a comparison of free memberships for various streaming platforms.

Later, I had a few idle computers and came across Proxmox VE, an open-source virtualization system. So, let’s install and try it out! Preparation: Proxmox VE installation disc A high-core and idle computer (otherwise, it will run very slowly) First, let’s go to the official website to download the PVE ISO file Official website link. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/free-streaming-music-compare/ Sun, 05 Jul 2020 12:51:26 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/free-streaming-music-compare/ 蘿蔔 has been searching for free and easy-to-use streaming music platforms for the past few years, so she has almost used all the common platforms in Taiwan. Therefore, she will introduce each platform to you one by one. First of all, 蘿蔔 is Taiwanese, so some of the platforms introduced in this article may not be available in other countries or regions, and some platforms may have been updated and this article may not have been updated in time. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/line-xun-xi-fen-lei/ Fri, 03 Jul 2020 12:25:49 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/line-xun-xi-fen-lei/ It will be much more convenient to find messages after LINE categorizes them… This feature is currently only available on Android, but it should be added to iOS in the near future. Please make sure that your LINE version is the latest version on Google Play. First, open LINE and go to the main page. Next, click on the gear icon in the upper right corner, find LINE Lab, and check the box. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/youtube-background-playing-android/ Fri, 19 Jun 2020 15:58:18 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/youtube-background-playing-android/ This guide is primarily demonstrated on an Android phone, although the same method can be applied to Android tablets. For iOS/iPadOS users, a similar method can be used as described in this post. Let’s get started First, open Youtube Music homepage on Chrome browser (most devices with built-in Google Play services should have it, if not, you can download it here) and do not play any music yet. Click the three dots on the top right corner and check “Desktop site”. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/youtube-background-ios/ Fri, 19 Jun 2020 14:39:47 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/youtube-background-ios/ Here we mainly use iPad as an example, but the same method can be applied to iPhone as well. Android devices can also use a similar method, and a tutorial for Android will be posted in the future, so stay tuned for more articles from “I am Little Yi”! Update: Android tutorial is available here Recently, the author has been looking for a good free streaming music service, and found that the Youtube Music App on the computer (actually embedded in the webpage) is quite user-friendly. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/iforgot-mac-password/ Thu, 04 Jun 2020 05:54:21 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/iforgot-mac-password/ I borrowed an iMac that I used until the holidays, and left it in a safe place before going home (I couldn’t take it with me). When I returned after more than a month, I discovered that I had forgotten my password (which sounds unbelievable, but it’s true; I couldn’t remember my previous password no matter how hard I tried). Fortunately, I had already backed up my data before going home. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ifttt-zhi-dong-guan-wifi/ Wed, 03 Jun 2020 04:43:06 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/ifttt-zhi-dong-guan-wifi/ As I often forget to turn off Wi-Fi when leaving home, I found this method to solve the problem. First, we need to prepare according to different device types. For Xiaomi, Redmi, Black Shark, and POCO phone users First, lock and allow IFTTT to self-start and set the power-saving policy to unrestricted from the recent apps. Skip this section if not applicable. Press and hold the IFTTT preview icon to bring up the menu below. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/telegram-dark-mode-theme/ Mon, 01 Jun 2020 08:46:56 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/telegram-dark-mode-theme/ If you have changed the theme on Telegram, you may have noticed that it always switches back to the default dark blue theme when dark mode is enabled on Android. Here’s a solution to this problem: First, open the side menu and select “Settings”. Next, select “Chat Settings”. Finally, find “Auto-Night Mode” and turn it off. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/yin-zhi-ti-sheng/ Mon, 01 Jun 2020 03:55:45 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/yin-zhi-ti-sheng/ Note: This article also applies to Apple Lightning devices and most USB-C devices, such as Windows computers. While you may think that the audio quality of your headphones that cost just over $20 is bad, have you overlooked an important detail? Although using headphones from the same brand as your phone may result in better optimization, it cannot be denied that the built-in DAC (an important component that converts digital audio into analog signals and provides them to headphones) of your phone may not be as good as an external DAC. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/tunnel-broker-bgp/ Sun, 31 May 2020 16:56:41 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/tunnel-broker-bgp/ Introduction I recently obtained an Autonomous System Number (AS Number), along with one /44 and two /48 IPv6 addresses. Coincidentally, I remembered using HE.Net’s tunnel broker service before, so I decided to set up a sit tunnel broker service. This article does not explain how to obtain IPv6 addresses, please consult your hosting provider. This article will use the open source tool - IPv6-in-IPv4 Tunnel. Configuration tool First, download the tool: https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/teamviewer-android/ Tue, 26 May 2020 10:09:17 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/teamviewer-android/ Do you often forget to bring your Android phone with you when you need it? TeamViewer can help with that! But you need to remove it from the system’s automatic background kill list. The remote control function is compatible with Android 5~Android 8 (the first time you use it, you may be asked for permission, and you can choose to allow permanently). For Android 9 and above, it is suitable for remote viewing (every time you use it on Android 9 and above, you need to allow it once on your phone, which is more suitable as a tool for wireless display to a computer). https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/scrcpy-android-apk/ Wed, 20 May 2020 08:52:47 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/scrcpy-android-apk/ First, we need to install Scrcpy and open it. Installation instructions here If you are using a Xiaomi phone (if not, skip this part), go to “Settings” > “Additional settings” > “Developer options” and allow USB installation. This action requires a SIM card to be inserted (required by MIUI). Please have the Finder or File Manager window for the prepared APK file open on the side, and drag the file into the Scrcpy window. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/scrcpy-android/ Tue, 19 May 2020 15:41:11 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/scrcpy-android/ Introduction: Due to a sudden breakdown of the screen of my phone, the liquid crystal display (LCD) would display but with no backlight, making it difficult to view the screen. However, I still needed to use the phone to transfer important data and test Android programs. Therefore, I had to figure out a way to operate it! (As I currently use an iPhone) (Screen can only be vaguely seen under intense light) https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/how-to-use-wireguard/ Sat, 16 May 2020 11:51:52 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/how-to-use-wireguard/ WireGuard is a point-to-point encryption network. I have been using it to manage/connect all my cloud servers. Today, let’s share how to use WireGuard! Install WireGuard Basically, the WireGuard Install Page provides complete installation methods and commands for various versions, so you can refer to it directly. Create WireGuard Profile First, go to the WireGuard installation folder. If it does not exist, please create it. cd /etc/wireguard Use the command to generate a public and private key, and use “cat” to view the contents of the public and private keys. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/create-cloud-identity/ Fri, 15 May 2020 20:35:11 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/create-cloud-identity/ First, go to the Cloud Identity registration page and click on the next page button.

Select your location (once set, it cannot be changed), but it doesn’t really matter. Set up your current email address (some registration emails will be sent here). Enter the domain you want to set up (cannot be used for other G Suite services). https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/delete-gsuite/ Fri, 15 May 2020 18:17:25 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/delete-gsuite/ Previously, I shared with you the way to register a G Suite account. Recently, I wanted to delete the G Suite organization of the Cloud Identity free version. Since I have never deleted a G Suite organization before, I searched for information and roughly sorted out the deletion method. Important reminder: Before deletion, please cancel the contractual authorization and delete all GCP projects. After deletion, all organization data will be cleared. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/backblaze-b2-compatible-s3-api/ Thu, 14 May 2020 03:08:02 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/backblaze-b2-compatible-s3-api/ A few days ago, when I opened Backblaze, I saw a big line of text: That’s right! Backblaze B2 now supports the S3 API! The S3 API is currently the most popular protocol in the market, and many hardware and software are compatible. Backblaze B2 is a great cloud storage option with a low cost advantage. How to use the S3 API If the storage bucket was created before May 4, 2020, you will need to create a new one and move your files into it (we recommend using Rclone, which will automatically support B2 Copy File). https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/backblaze-b2/ Mon, 11 May 2020 09:35:00 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/backblaze-b2/ When I was learning how to build a website, I considered a problem! If my traffic suddenly increased and I had more articles, would my image storage and bandwidth also increase? So I searched for some object storage services online and found a cheap object storage provider - Backblaze. What is Object Storage? Object storage is a type of data storage where each data unit is stored as a discrete unit called an object. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/github-static-website/ Wed, 22 Apr 2020 14:09:46 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/github-static-website/ First, go to Github and click on the green New button on the left.

It is currently available to all paid users, and I don’t know if there will be a chance to open it to free customers in the future. Official blog link: https://cfl.re/3efcOhv Coincidentally, I have several domains that use the Plesk Plus service (this service has been discontinued), which is considered Cloudflare Pro version, so I can also activate this feature! https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/use-bird6-broadcast-ipv6-vultr/ Fri, 10 Apr 2020 02:21:55 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/use-bird6-broadcast-ipv6-vultr/ It is recommended to refer to the article Building an Internal Network with Friends via BGP on January 24, 2021.

In this post, I will share the process of buying a domain on Gandi! Prerequisites: Money (for the domain registration fee) First, we open Gandi’s official website. Search for the domain you want and add it to your shopping cart. Then you can proceed to checkout. Gandi supports many payment methods: credit card, UnionPay, PayPal, bank transfer, Bitcoin. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/transfer-domain-from-google-to-gandi/ Thu, 02 Apr 2020 02:55:55 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/transfer-domain-from-google-to-gandi/ In the past few days, I received a notification email from Google Domains reminding me that my domain would need to be renewed soon. Coincidentally, I had planned to transfer all my domains to Gandi for unified management. So, I’ll take this opportunity to share how to transfer a domain out/in. Preparation: Registered domain (the one to be transferred out) Money (required for domain renewal when transferred to another registrar) First, go to Google Domains to unlock the domain and obtain the transfer authorization code. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/register-gsuite/ Wed, 01 Apr 2020 03:13:48 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/register-gsuite/ I believe most of you have used Gmail before.

Initially, I stored the images and website on the same web server, but later found that the server space was often insufficient (because the system automatically backed up, causing insufficient space). Later, I placed the images on OneDrive Business Edition and used it with OneList, but since it was an unofficial API, when the API request rate was too fast, the images failed to load. https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/backtoios841/ Mon, 30 Dec 2019 13:26:02 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/backtoios841/ Sometimes there may be problems with Apple, causing various problems. If there are any errors, please try again another day. Apple’s vulnerabilities are not very stable. I tried three times in one day and couldn’t use them. I succeeded once another day. This is a bit of luck. If the iOS device is slow, downgrading will be smoother (A5 devices are very noticeable, while A6 and A6X devices are not much different but still a bit faster) https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/gcp-windows-dd/ Tue, 27 Aug 2019 15:07:49 +0000 https://blog.steveyi.net/en/posts/gcp-windows-dd/ Recently, in order to use VPS on GCP, I created a Windows DD image during a period of time.
