Desktop Environment and Window Manager Thread Anonymous 10/13/2023 (Fri) 05:58:39 No. 13331 [Reply]
Argue about what desktop environment or window manager is cool and which one sucks. I have been using awesome window manager on my T61 for like a year, but I'm still wondering how much of a meme it is. Kind of sick of endless tweaking. Maybe I should just use Xfce on it - if I'm not used to awesome after so long, I should probably switch. On my more modern computer I use GNOME, while when GNOME3 came out I thought it sucked, I think it's matured really well and is pretty alright as a "default" kind of desktop. What do you like using, and why?
5 posts omitted.
>>13557 Yeah, I tried to install Node and it had the 12 version when the lastest is the 20. It's so fucking out of date.
I just use dwm because outside of 2 niche use cases it does every I need out of the box. I did spend some time patching some extra features but mainly it was just to have a different layout for each tag so it wouldn't be resizing every application when I changed something, as well as systray functionality for dumb applications that demand a systray to store their icon, which frankly none of the applications add any benefit to having a systray icon, I've never once had to click on the dumb things for any reason.
>>13331 For me, the only usable Desktop Environment is Xfce4 (and perhaps Mate). I use Ratpoison on my laptop and IceWM on my desktop (I have also tested LabWC). Ratpoison is manually tiling WM. It's basically Tmux but for managing GUI windows. By default all windows are maximized and you can use ctrl-t n to switch to another ("next") window or you can use ctrl+t 2 to switch to window number 2 (and so on). There is also a command for switching to a window by searching for it's title, but I forgot the keybinding... The great thing is that Ratpoison can show all keybinding with ctrl+t ? (it lists even custom ones!). ctrl+t is the default Ratpoison "prefix key". All Ratpoison commands start with the prefix key but you can change the prefix key if you want, and you can define keybindings that don't need the prefix key (like making WinLogo + r execute your program launcher). Ratpoison is very simple to use and configure but some people want that their WM manages windows in a more dynamic or automatic way. It's also extremely lightweight. IceWM is basically a clone of Windows 95 GUI with additional features (like optional support for sloppy focus). I used to use OpenBox but the development of it has stalled, unfortunately. Both OpenBox and IceWM are very simple to configure, too. LabWC is a clone of OpenBox for Wayland. >>13343 >Gnome >Haven't tried it yet, but from what I've seen looks like something for mobile or touch screens. Gnome 2 was great but Gnome 3 is basically the Windows 8 of Linux world. Avoid. Mate desktop environment is a clone of Gnome 2. >>13557 You should try Debian testing.

There is no such thing as Ukrainian hackers. Anonymous 05/12/2022 (Thu) 18:39:37 No. 8419 [Reply]
There is no such thing as Ukrainian hackers. These so-called Ukrainian hackers are agents of the USA, England and Israel. Cyber attacks are constantly being carried out against Russia.These attacks are said to be made by these so-called "ukrainian hackers". In reality, there is no cyber attack on Russia. Attacks on Russian systems are not made over tcp/ip and udp networks. The main source of attacks on Russia are crypto-Jews living in Russia who have embedded the NSA's Cottonmouth and Bulldozer hardware into Russian computer systems. These equipments are managed remotely via radio signals, not internet network. Attacks on Russia are not cyber attacks but electronic signal attacks

Bypassing bot detection on betting sites Anonymous 12/19/2022 (Mon) 00:39:14 No. 11041 [Reply]
Sup /t/, I dont really frequent chans so apologies in advance if I'm not following the proper etiquette. I'm trying to set up a script which does arbitrage across sportsbooks if it identifies a big enough spread in the odds. While this part isn't so difficult, the real issue is that apparently most sportsbooks will ban you if they catch you doing arbitrage. Is there a way which I can write my bots so that they interact with websites close enough to how a human would where they don't get my accounts banned? Do I even need to worry about this? If anyone has any tips/ experience that would be great. tl;dr how do i not get banned off of sportsbetting sites for botting

Got the pinephone, works great for what it is. Got the keyboard, remember to avoid using the phone usb with the keyboard mounted. 1 year later, battery unit in keyboard still works great, but keyboard died after auto-repeating a ton of characters while writing a text message. Felt like a cable failure to me, similar to how a laptop keyboard goes out sometimes. Now I need to pry open the keyboard and try to figure out why pine64 does not sell replacement cables for the keyboard's internal pogo pin interface to the phone. The hinge still works good, but the cable was routed through there, and would obviously flex a little. I do not think it is a ribbon cable, at least. Just really thin gauge wires in a sheath.

/t/ for the Infinity Winter Cup 2020! Anonymous 11/23/2020 (Mon) 13:24:29 No. 1838 [Reply]
Hey there, /t/! We're in the process of organizing a new edition of The Infinity Cup or /icup/ for short, a virtual soccer tournament pitching various boards and imageboards against each other, and we're trying to find out if any of the boards that previously joined us wanted to reserve a spot in the final tournament. Since your team was already present in previous iterations, we already have both your roster, your kits and logos, so the only thing we ask of you if you want to join is the following: 1) Making sure your team has the correct number of medals (1 Gold, 1 Silver and 2 Bronze), which you can see from the wiki page; http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki//tech/ 2) Making a thread over at https://anon.cafe/icup/ with your team's pledge, you just need to make a new thread telling us that your board wants in on the cup. Optionally) Assign player cards, roles and special strategies to your players, which can be referenced from the following wiki articles: http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Player_Cards http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Rules http://infinitycup.shoutwiki.com/wiki/Team_Strategies Optionally2) Change roster names and/or give us 3D models to use for your team, or new kits or whatever contribution you'd like. I hope to see you guys on the pitch!

How hard would it be to make a functioning imageboard (or textboard) using IPFS and OrbitDB/GUN, or Hypercore/Dat? It would be immune to deplatforming by hosting providers (and DNS providers depending on how it's addressed). https://ipfs.io/ https://orbitdb.org/ https://github.com/amark/gun / https://gun.eco/ https://hypercore-protocol.org/ (formally https://www.datprotocol.com/) There's two chans on zeronet but you have to make an ID to use them

>>9828 Got images to load over IPFS. Here's how the two catalogs compare now. The difference in background color is just because I scrolled down to get things to line up. Right is obtained over IPFS (except for the board name and description which are obtained over HTTP for now) and the left is the traditionally served HTML page from the central server. As I'm doing this a lot of the quality-of-life stuff that should be handled is becoming more clear.
>>9903 Making a bit of progress on this, mainly fixing up a lot of the functionality that broke porting the database. The most recent thing I did was having the central-servers "classic view" also get post files via an proxy to the ipfs gateway on the backend, so that the static file delivery as such can be replaced (right now there is redundancy with a "static" and "ipfs" copy of each file on the mediator server, which isn't ideal, but this can now be dealt with) Here's a checklist of stuff to do before I would consider it viable to use/test on a publicly-accessible server: https://gitgud.io/threshold862543/orbitchan/-/issues/9
Locutus might be a good platform to build this on. It's basically a continuation of Freenet that supports more dynamic websites. It can be thought of as Ethereum for non-financial uses and without a blockchain, due to it's use of "cryptographic contracts" that govern each site. https://freenet.org/

Censorship-free game server Anonymous 08/24/2021 (Tue) 16:47:11 No. 5237 [Reply]
Is it possible to make a free speech friendly game server (say, Minetest) that is resistant to being shut down by restrictive governments, hosting companies and ICANN. Possibility 1: Anonymity networks. How feasible is it to connect to a game server running on, say, a Tor hidden service? How about a Lokinet SNapp? I2P? Possibility 2: Blockchain domains. These are very straightforward from what I've heard. Cons: only defends against ICANN but not gov or provider. Possibility 3: Peer-to-peer. How hard is this? Cons: no privacy (by default) These possibilities are not necessarily mutually exclusive. E.g. The P2P network could be run over an anon network to improve privacy.

>>5237 Just host your own LAN and lay down some long fiber optic runs. Otherwise your best bet is taking a page out of normalnigger books and using a site or chat to keep vps hopping, added bonus of not having to get a domain, just post the ip. I use mullvad while gaming and the latency isn't that bad, if you get a vps in the same datacenter then it might be a negligible cost for masking the ip.

The model of the computer, the installed operating system and a little bit of your time. Some modern business models (Lenovo, HP, Dell) have serious BIOS guards, but it's not too hard to bypass them.
