Spurious native interrupt Anonymous 05/15/2022 (Sun) 16:21:30 No. 8449 [Reply]
When my computer is not connected to the internet, even though I formatted, changed the bios software and changed the hard disk firmware, the program opens by itself and the mouse cursor moves by itself. When I examine with the Wireshark program, an interrupt signal comes from the usb ports even though the device is not plugged into the usb ports. In this case, I am complaining. Logs are attached.
Boot to a livecd with no storage installed.
I tried it doesn't work. Again the same interrupt signals are coming.

>>1180 >Find a keyboard with an usb-c plug in your house. A year and a half late it may be, but the board I've been using for the past four or five years takes USB-C. The computer end is USB-A right now, but a replacement C-to-C cable would be cheap even if I'm still using this board a decade from now and I need to plug into a type C port. Don't tell me, are you using some Jew hardware with non-replaceable cables, so it needs to be thrown away and replaced entirely once the cable frays even if the actual hardware is still good? Do you do that with headphones too?

Let's Learn C Together, Imageboard Style Anonymous 05/02/2022 (Mon) 02:31:22 No. 8314 [Reply] [Last]
So I'm recently getting back into writing code again after a multi-year break. I used to be pretty proficient at BASIC and Visual Basic, BASH scripting, and I dabbled in Perl and PHP. Recently I've decided I want to learn C and git gud at it, but going through lessons and tutorials alone is boring when you have no feedback. There's already a dedicated programming thread, but I think there's enough here to warrant a standalone thread where we go through things together. We'll be using two resources. >C: How to Program - an in-depth textbook >The C Programming Language - long considered the beginner's bible for C >Why bother with C when C++ is a thing? C++ is basically object-oriented C, or C with classes. While C++ is a very useful language C is often more immediately applicable to simple, no-bullshit programs that do useful things. C is simpler, with less weeds to get lost in and is thus quicker to learn. And if you are good at C, then it's just a short hop to learning C++. We learn C to walk before we run. Since I'm a newbie too I'll post useful things I learn and code examples I write ITT for anons to play with, and explain the things I learn both for your benefit and to help me remember them better. If you want to join me, start off by reading The C Programming Language cover-to-cover. If something seems confusing, cross reference it in C: How to Program for a different perspective. Here we go.

Each element in the string is basically an integer, not a pointer. >its just a string and not an array of structs. Technically you've never used an array of structs, only an array of pointers. Try to make a drawing of the memory layout to understand it properly if it's confusing. Then post it so that we can bully you.
>>8870 I mean, in the struct dirent **pages line I'm dereferencing a pointer twice. I suppose it'd be more explicit to say I'm "looking at a pointer that's looking at a pointer that's pointing into an array of structs", but is the pages array created by scandir() not an array of structs? The official literature is a little obtuse as to the structure of the memory segment that scandir() creates.

Using Secure Passwords - Tips and Tricks Anonymous 05/28/2022 (Sat) 20:54:15 No. 8560 [Reply]
You know the old sayings when it comes to password security. >Never use the same password twice >Choose hard passwords that use numbers, symbols, caps and lowercase >Never write down or store passwords in a way that could be compromised >Change passwords semi-regularly >Never reuse an old password These are great ideas from a technical standpoint, but they completely and totally ignore the human factor. A hard password is difficult to remember, let alone when you have ten of them for ten different sites. Without writing them down somewhere you're likely to forget them, and even more likely to forget the ones you change frequently. This sucks, so I'm going to share a couple tips and tricks I use for making and remembering secure passwords. These two tricks are Passphrases and Catches. >Passphrases A passphrase is like a password but it much easier to structure and remember. It can be any line or quote that is memorable to you for some reason, which you then modify in a rememberable way to make more secure. Let me show you some examples. Starting with a simple phrase like "the quick brown fox" from the famous example of "using every letter in the alphabet", you could easily make this into a very memorable, hard to break passphrase. The addition of one symbol in a particular spot, and capitalizing each word in the phrase other than the first, is a simple adjustment. As a rule, don't always capitalize the first letter of your password, and don't always put your symbols or punctuation at the end, because cracking programs often anticipate this. >the#QuickBrownFox is a seventeen character, secure password. For comparison, try remembering iQd#rgYtbaLsdevPG. The strength is comparable. >Catches

How about just slapping your hands on the keyboard, selecting a section that's 8-32 characters long, writing it down, and burning the paper after the 20th time you use it? And/or intentionally add characters that are absent from standard keyboards such as £, ¥, ü, ç, æ, ø, and so on.

Browser and Internet Privacy Thread Anonymous 08/13/2020 (Thu) 06:48:58 No. 984 [Reply] [Last]
A place to shill for your favorite browsers & addons. Learn how to protect yourself from the botnet. What are your favorite addons and browsing tricks to protect your privacy? Share them here so we can all be a little safer. Browsers Chrome Chrome is somehow still in the lead due to sheer momentum, despite even the dumbest lusers cracking jokes about memory usage. Google has continued to abuse their position as the largest website and browser to force non-standards compliant changes to the way rendering works, generally to their benefit. Should be avoided at all costs. They track everything you do in some way. Chromium Even "de-Google'd" it still phones home and tracks your every move. Plus it gives them market share to bully smaller browsers and websites into complying with their standards. Avoid. Firefox Mozilla is pretty cucked and it's running on Rust these days, but it's a decent compromise between the modernity of Chrome and the standards compliance of something like Pale Moon. It's the closest you can get to a proper browser that's also updated regularly. Addons are worse now that they use Google's "web extensions" API, which is a downgrade from the Mozilla API and no more secure. But the whole "Quantum" thing has it flying, and they are better about standards compliance than Chrome is, and usually only break away because Chrome gives them no choice. Pale Moon The Gentooman's preferred choice, although some sites just don't play nice with it anymore. The last real holdout of old Gecko rendering. Has a diverse ecosystem, but it's basically the remnants of Firefox from yesteryear repackaged. Not bad if you can stand many sites not playing nice.

How do i make mods for games? Anonymous 05/16/2022 (Mon) 22:28:15 No. 8459 [Reply]
Hello everyone i was wondering on how i could get started in modding video games and if there any guides out there thank you :)
2 posts and 1 image omitted.
>>8459 well if they dont provide a public API for people to modify the game behavior with then you'll have to get a binary analyzer tool like ghidra or IDA and start reverse engineering the program. Find out where & how it loads stuff, where important memory structs are allocated, how the game logic runs, etc. Then simply patch bytes in the original program to add your own behavior. You can also just try to decompile the entire thing and modify it like that, this is how most java programs are modded, but thats not such an easy process for native programs like this game but maybe its still possible idk never tried. I recommend watching this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w7gBkVXuDSQ&list=PLpnX4b2uRf5-_aLRjuIpav2Zh45C4f2QH

How to communicate with the devil using ions ? You will provide three "lead container". You will obtain sodium chloride, potassium and calcium powders. Put the sodium chloride powder in a container, calcium powder in a container and potassium powder in a separate container. Connect the "bulb that gives ultraviolet light" to lead containers. Connect the "ultraviolet light bulb" to a sound amplifier with a microphone. Give Arabic, Persian and ancient-Hebrew commands using the microphone. Satan does not know other languages.

/p2p/ General Anonymous 05/06/2020 (Wed) 02:13:46 No. 23 [Reply] [Last]
Welcome to /p2p/, the dedicated peer-to-peer thread for /tech/ and the bunker for /t/orrentfags. What is P2P? Peer-to-Peer technologies allow decentralized networks to share data. They can be used to bypass oppressive government regulations on speech or to download the latest seasonal anime. What are my options? First and foremost is BitTorrent, a common protocol where files are split into chunks which are then shared via swarm, which works to get everyone a copy. There are many BitTorrent clients out there, and everyone has a personal preference. Some are owned my corporations and full of spyware. It's recommended you use something open source, like Deluge or qBitTorrent. Won't my internet get shut down? If your ISP is cucked then they might, but thankfully there is a solution. Use a VPN! Don't trust any VPNs that advertise all over the place. What is IPFS?

How do you make a person hear sounds that don't exist ? Anonymous 05/12/2022 (Thu) 20:08:50 No. 8422 [Reply]
How do you make a person hear sounds that don't exist ? Get a high-wattage sound system. Get a microwave oven. Remove the magnetron in the microwave oven. Remove the "magnetic coil" from the high-wattage sound system and replace it with the magnetron used in microwave ovens. You can give the inspiration you want in the high-wattage sound system. Russia and China are at this level right now. The US and Israel are at a much higher level.
