I've just discovered the imperial library and have been downloading some books, but Tor itself says I should only open those files when offline. Is there anyway to "clean" the files, so I don't end up giving my data away?

I am using Linux operating system. My computer is not connected to the internet , I formatted it and changed the bios firmware and hard disk firmware. However, the program opens by itself, the mouse cursor moves by itself, and sometimes the system's default audio service is turned off. When I examine it with the Wireshark program, an interrupt signal comes from the usb ports, even though there is no device plugged into the usb ports. The interrupt signal comes from linux's default idle hardware. I have a hidden implant in my computer that looks like the NSA ANT COTTONMOUTH tool. Wireshark logs https://easyupload.io/eqrfr6 This hidden usb implant can easily bypass all antivirus and security software by introducing itself as a hidden system process by overflowing the kernel, regardless of linux or windows operating system, during computer startup. On computers that cannot exceed the kernel security, it introduces itself as a different hardware and takes over the control of the system via memory buffer overflow by overloading the interrupt. No antivirus and security software can detect this situation. This hidden usb implant is not simple usb keyboard like ruber ducky and usb ninja. For this reason, do not recommend simple and useless scripts such as "usb guard". This implant is an advanced usb spying implant similar to NSA COTTONMOUTH. My request from the linux community is to develop a security module for the linux operating system against hidden usb implants.

Do they really think that we'll send a fuckton of hardware right to trash, just because they feel like changing the connector?

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.

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

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.

Lets discuss Retroshare. Why aren't you using it? It has: >Chat >Mail >Forums >Channels >Boards >File Sharing >And More It is an encrypted peer to peer network which can be set up to use Tor and/or I2P to hide your IP from glowniggers. Given that this is a tech board, I'm sure you'll figure out how to set it up. To get started you'll need frens, add me and post your certificate so other frens can add you too.

Hello everyone i was wondering on how i could get started in modding video games and if there any guides out there thank you :)

How would one theoretically cash out money out of stolen Russian credit cards without possessing names/addresses or phones associated with them? What if said person was theoretically willing to share a lot of said cards with helpful Anons?

Cock.li stopped allowing new emails to register and is only allowing new emails on an invite basis. Vincent claims do to this in reaction to governments using cock.li for foreign intelligence. Is this a canary?

Is there a retards guide to doing deepfakes and AI generated content? It seems like every mainstream site in existence has purged most information about it so it's hard to figure anything out about it.

why tf are there two tech boards also nice original /tech/ revive. Have a thonk

does anyone know how to validate the signature of a fake covid pass? i am trying to see if i can do it on the swiss covid cert app

I'm sure this has been proposed already by other anons, but I'd like to discuss and understand if it is a viable idea and what would be the weak points of a blockchain with the following characteristics: >Composed by blocks, each block would have a date, the previous block hash, the current hash, a list of posts. >Each post is composed by an id, an hash, a date, a public key for user identification (optional), a title and a message. >Both title and message fields are limited by a certain number of characters. >After a certain block amount (or time), the tail end of the blockchain is discarded >Posts may only be appended to the blockchain by using a small quantity of crypto currency (lets call it PST). >PST is unlimited and should be easy to acquire, possibly by just donating your processing power to miner pools for small amounts of time. >Another currency should be awarded to miners that spend more time and resources (lets call it GLD). This currency must be finite so it can increase in value and give miners a reason to spend processing power. I don't know what type of proofing system should be used to manage block validation, but it should be fast. The main problems that imageboards have are: >pedophilia might be used as a weapon to deplatform the website >abusive moderation >spam By using a text-only approach we can at least make the first problem slightly harder to be exploited. Links to illegal content would still exist and tech-savvy individuals would try to send base-64 encoded CP as text (but this might be mitigated by having a small message limit). Moderation would be non-existent, but this will increase the amount of spam. Third-party sites could offer moderation services where they hide posts in exchange of a fee.

im tryna learn vim but do not want to pay a large amount
