Welcome to Take Control of Your Tech

Episode 1

Tuesday, October 27, 2026 • Duration 01:04:22

Welcome to the first episode of Take Control of Your Tech! On this episode, Will explains why this show exists, shares what you need to know about the eMudra and PHP security issues that happened last week (and how to secure your devices) and answers listener questions!

This week's show is sponsored by Fastmail. If you want a great email provider that can help you take control of your inbox, give you single-use Masked Emails for questionable account signups, and make adding new email aliases for your domain collection a breeze, give Fastmail a try.

Ars Technica has had great coverage of the eMudhra cert story and the PHP vulnerability.
There's also a Plex vulnerability which I wasn't aware of when I recorderd this.
The command I used to extend my Fedora Server's root drive is sudo lvextend --resizefs --extents +50%FREE /dev/mapper/<volume name>
