Better question is why not? Most people don't know what USENET is or how to use it, so it inherently caters to a specialty crow. And NNTP allows for things to be propagated and mirrored out to a more local network so it's like a crude approximation of a cloud or a torrent. Remember direct downloads over IRC? Same idea. There's enough bandwidth to spare by sharing the load, and it's less annoying than having to get caught up in the right IRC and navigating all the attendant drama to get access to the right XDCC bot.

>>10443 > allows for things to be propagated and mirrored out to a more local network Well, technically yes, but actually for bin newsnet that doesn't work. I would say ~20 providers host alt.bin. I can safely assume you won't have 100+tb host in your local network. >over IRC? I guess telegram channels have taken over that role. I'm not good with telegram, use it only as a messenger. But my wife managed to get some rare book there. > Better question is why not? Please don't get me wrong, I'm happy when things are diverse and one has an option to choose from. It just looks strange to me that decentralized technology used for content piracy tends to be less popular than centralized one. For some particular cases. And I'm trying to understand what are those cases.

>>10444 >my wife super gross Why do people use dead chans? Maybe some people like them. There's your answer.

>>10288 >>What program do you use? >Yeah that was the entry level hump trying to get over so I could compile it and look at the results before passing the next version along. I'm as much a copy editor as an idea man for what we should be writing. There is - TEXmacs https://www.texmacs.org/ - vim - emacs has tex-mode Really any text editor will do. For the proprietary vener-lock-in web-app feel maybe <https://www.overleaf.com/>.They do have good documentation for beginners.

>>10298 lol the emacs tex mode sucks as much unwashed cock as most of its other modes, and that's after you try to write hooks in your .emacs or .xemacs or ~/.emacs/.xmacstab or whatever to just force it in to text mode. Yes I do know ML and I don't care. They can't even keep anything consistent between emacs and xemacs, but you wind up falling between either than and vim, and I'll give you an earful about it not being part of a standard distribution DESPITE ALL THIS OTHER BULL SHIT I DIDN'T NEED OR WANT TO KNOW ABOUT but it's the compilation thing. I'ts kind of like making your own .deb or .rpm. I like how you can just trade it around as a pure text file, but you have to do some digging for the right incantation to turn it in to the final product, and that's important if your chart wound up on the wrong page, or if you have to edit down your list of citations to fit it in to the number of pages you paid for.

>>10078 I think you can still (2022) run KDE with Xorg. How else can BSD users use KDE. BSD does not have wayland. Also last time I used wayland screen recording didn't work; so the project seems like an overambitious cluster fuck funded by Ford automobile to make low energy info-tainment system gui.

>>10285 You *can* run KDE on Xorg, but in my opinion the only reason to use KDE in the first place is if you want Wayland but dislike Gnome and Sway. If you're gonna be on Xorg anyway, might as well use a better DE like LxQt

>>10285 >the project seems like an overambitious cluster fuck Wayland is to Linux what DWM was to Windows. There were plenty of growing pains but I don't think most Windows users want to go back to GDI at this point.

>>2951 I think that would be a cool,but not to replace image-boards,but rather as another way of communicating online. >>2974 I think pseudo-anonymous websites would be cool, this sites when they get big get misleading and just annoying.In popular sites like 4-chan people don't say be B in response to A ,they say D ,Z and C in a ironic way.I've seen people who respond the most retard responses they can think of only to degenerate the conversation. With this system you wouldn't have glowniggers spying you,but could also differentiate the users.You wouldn't talk to your grandma the same way you talk to a friend , so the same online you wouldn't talk to a newfag the same way you would talk to someone who specializes on the board topic. This wouldn't replace the imageboards,because this is not their intent.Their intent is to have meaningful conversations or discussions,while imageboard would be for laughs and idiot posting. >>2975 Agreed bans are stupid >>6314 >>6360 >>6497 Can't you see there is a solution,different boards,(or pseudo-anonymous forum as I mentioned),with different owners.Maybe in one they accept what you hate maybe in others no.The idea is that there is a free-market of ideas and sites in which the user chooses the best one instead of being imposed.

>>3004 >A booru would fit IPFS naturally, though. I would love an IPFS booru. It could be hosted entirely by volunteers meaning that there would be no need for invasive, hard-to-block ads (I'm looking at you Gelbooru) to pay for hosting. If dynamic content is hard, then how would it be possible to add and delete pictures, as well as comment underneath them though? OrbitDB is able to allow multiple users to add to the database. Would it use something like that? The only problem is how would you pass the search query in the URL? AFAIK there's no way to do that yet, but I think it should be possible to pass parameters to client-side code running in the browser rather than server-side. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

>>3229 I knew about 8chan, only wondered if there was anything else to it. Well, thanks for clarifying.

I have been using chrome in phone for a while with address bar showing url bar on top, accompanied with square that show the amount of other tabs I have opened. These past days the url bar disappear, replaced by “New Tab”. Clicking it only make a new tab that display the same thing. I don’t see any setting to revert this, anyone knows anything? The First url below display similar result with me except the icon that suppose to show me all open tabs also disappear on my end Chrome android ver 101.0.4951.61 (current ver available in playstore 105) https://www.androidpolice.com/google-chrome-android-new-address-bar/ https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28647604/force-hide-address-bar-in-chrome-on-android https://www.reddit.com/r/chrome/comments/simaho/android_address_bar_disappeared_anyone_else/

Hello, I would like to help you to end this criminal organization, if you wish you can contact me at xk1ra@confidential.tips

Q sent me we are synonymous detect us

>>2961 >to incite terrorism, blackmail people, produce illegal pornography and assist in assassinations that's exactly what the cia, fbi, and nsa do. why do you think they would stop themselves? you really didn't think this one through anon.

I was very proud when I realized I was ultra mega shadowbanned everywhere on kiketube for being a bad goy. Validates me immensely, someone finally noticed how much I fucking hate the kikes.

Use rumble.com or invidious if you must use youtube.

Imagine having a Jewgle account in 2022

>>9956 I think the more salient question is why anybody would promote rust. I'm vaguely aware of it, but I just sort of loosely throw it in with MongoDB or Go as some sort of flavor of the month web bullshit that most likely will just cause me more long-term maintenance issues for some fag who went all in on the flavor of the week and then skipped town to some other bullshit job where he just churns out more crap for the next three months. I believe that if it were important then there'd be a reason to care.

No shared libraries. Everything is vendered though cargo and then linked to libc; there isn't a ordained way to take a crate and turn it into a SO for deployment in an easy way. There are a lot of good things, but the fact that any useful crate is just a binding to C and C++ is a deal breaker to me; I'll just use the native version and use C or C++ for the project instead of the binding.

>>9961 >more the community around it. Agree, the community is too left-tarded.

I don't even know what the fuck a password manager is. Aren't they supposed to be secret? I just tie them down to whatever thoughts I associate with the account and once in a while make a note that I accidentally used the wrong thought or transposed the numbers or whatever. One of my old bosses used an encrypted like fucking word document or whatever his shit was because he was too boomer to remember all his passwords and was advised by the IT staff that the document encryption was more powerful than all his passwords so he might as well put them all in one place. (But why even have different passwords at that point lol). This laptop happens to be locked not just by a particular japanese movie that represents my state of mind while buying it, but also altered based on the buttons that don't work until it's booted up and I can remap the keyboard. Good luck with that h40rz :^)

>>5704 not having to manage and "glue together" - as you say it - separate applications is still a valid point of his. also: if you'll tell me "but it's not that hard" I'll tell you "there's more things to go wrong along the way too though". Nice if it works for you though and the tinkering spirit is cool too.

>>4278 >Which KeepAss is better? There's the OG, X and XC now. KeePass on Windows, KeePassXC on Linux

if you have a modern laptop then you already have an rfid/nfc chip in the corner somewhere you just have to get the libnfc6 library which comes with examples arduino i dont know, install the arduino ide on a computer and find an arduino nfc library, without a library you have to look up the hardware docs of the chip you have and manually code it

>>10018 Oh, for real? My sister has a good laptop. A Notebook HP Pavilion Gaming 15-dk1032la. Like this one. Does it have that function?

>>10018 >>10033 Well you *could* use it to spoof the NFC tags that are used on amoibos but if electronics and tinkering isn't your primary interest (and even if it is) if you're gonna use the NFC stuff as a tool rather than a goal in and of itself (say - making a teddy bear that can read nfc greeting cards or some stuff like that where you'd want to put NFC capacity into a custom circuit) then something like this is probably the best bet for you: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07QV7NLCM/ You can plug it in like any usb device. Install some stuff on your laptop and you're good to go if you can figure it out. That said, if you want to do the soldering and tinkering with the stuff you have (you do have a soldering iron to attach the pin headers to the red nfc-module, right?) then the idea with your kit is probably: >install arduino ide >put the program required onto the arduino >solder pins to red board >hook up red board to the required arduino pins on the bread board with the jumper cables you have >??? >fuck, doesn't work >??? >??!

>>6405 Have you considered making your own technology, my guy? Those are just the mutterings of a tech-slave who is incapable of providing for himself.

>>8541 WOAAAAAH i putted some caps on a pcb and its now a product!!!! where is the surface that youll be touching for 24/7 with sweaty fingers? left one looks nice tho

>>9353 I don't like the consumerist part of keyboardfags either, but even this thing could have a case made for it. I guess it's that last 20% of the project taking 40-60% of the time for it to look "professional" and they can't be arsed. Besides that: I hate the obsession with keycaps and switches to the exclusion of actually bothering with the important concepts: key arrangements, height-profiles - maybe even a completely new input system of which they keyboard is only a fraction. Left doesn't look very usable, good luck doing your inputs on that keyboard, I'd much rather have a "chunky smartphone" that I can hook up a keyboard to and maybe some kind of chorded interface/case for mobile use And maybe a touchscreen too, but now it's almost just a smatphone (albeit being properly built and servicable and open and also just running "mainline linux" instead of the fetid dumpster fire that is android would make a huge difference already, even if it's just a differently constrained smartphone.

>>1834 >2 TB If that's all the capacity you need, then you should've bought an SSD instead. In my opinion.

>>1852 just be careful of shingled ones, because you'll regret again

>>1834 lol didn't you look up the specs first? almost everything "green" is a scam. I think I'd make an exception for some power supplies from like 10+ years ago where the "green" ones were a way to get something efficient enough to be quiet for office use even if you ran it somewhere kind of getting up toward its power rating. Other than that pretty much no except for a cheap laptop I bought last year while I was too drunk to try the keyboard and it had all fucking weird keys in the wrong places and proceeded to piss me off until I accidentally kicked it off the bed while I was even more drunk and the screen shattered.

Fuck phone numbers. There was a time about 20 years ago when people thought it would not be needed in a few years, after evertything went online. It was a sign of early adopter to not have boomercell any more. Now it has become a pseudo-ID card to tie your real identity to your normalfag online activities, and de facto requirement that sure as fuck isn't going anywhere. At least I still live in a region where anonymous prepaid is still allowed, for now (outside US). Do americans have anonymous prepaids / burner phones any more? It's a tiny proportion of countries that allow it by now. Vast majority requires you to present real life ID to activate a prepaid subscription.

>>7473 It's illegal to use SSN for identification. Use a TID (tax ID) instead. 2FA is fundamentally less secure. Ask for a wireless FOB thing so it's not connected to your goyphone, or at least buy a burner goyphone that you never use anyway because goyphones are utter trash, and then send them the bill for it.

>>9876 Depends how much you care about exactly how anonymous it is. I bought one in cash the other week. Didn't even need a prepaid debit card. But what do I use it for? If your'e watching the pings and the nature of the traffic, then it's not hard to figure out who am and where I am when. Will it impact my life? Not really. It's just another layer to get through for an average jack in a world where most likely nobody would care enough. I guess I accidentally used it as a wifi hotspot for porn once, so they'll find out what kind of shameful stuff I wanked to once if they dig out all the DNS logs or whatever. Otherwise it's just going to corroborate the rest of my tracked activity, including logs of my car's license plates and patterns of fraudulent activity to do with who I am and where I live.
