Using Waveshare e-ink screens without Raspberry Pi

It is sometimes convenient to have a domain distributed over two or more machines. This technique, as old as DNS, is interesting to spread the load between multiple hosts, or to provide a bit of high availability. Indeed, if a host becomes inaccessible, at least half of the requests will continue to be successful.
However, since TLS connections have become the norm, and certificates should be renewed automatically, it could be hard to control the validation and the distribution.
I will present you a technique which, with the help of a finely configured web server, allows to get a different certificate on each machine, but usable for the same subdomain.

r8152 4-1.1:1.0 (unnamed net_device) (uninitialized): Unknown version 0x6010

Grsecurity has completely disabled, on purpose, the user namespace code for the kernel.
As the goal of this namespace is to gain (virtualy) root privilegies inside a namespace (in theory, it shouldn’t give more priviledgies than the one you initialy have outside of your namespace), there are some interesting use cases, or, in my case I need to perform some demo in front of my students.
