Suspicious of playit.gg: any alternatives on a managed network? Anonymous 06/29/2025 (Sun) 17:48:14 No. 23512 [Reply] >>23532
I am naturally suspicious of playit.gg, what issues exist with using playit.gg instead of port forwarding? Any better alternatives? What is "tunneling" via "port forwarding" in this context? From what little I understand regarding computer networking, I can't port-forward from my apartment complex as opposed to my previous one because my ISP uses a "managed network" where I connect via an indoor access point. There is no router that I can connect to that has a port I can open. I was talking with one of my friends about it who keeps blabbering about "just using playit.gg". I've never looked into it until now, but looking at the website an the bits and pieces of how it supposedly works, I'm suspicious about the speech & privacy concerns associated with a "free" service.

Why is this meme so popular? Anonymous 08/22/2024 (Thu) 02:49:11 No. 16048 [Reply] >>23516
First, I don't ever bother running this meme because it hurts my eyes seeing how painfully slow it is, and then devs chose to write the entire thing under a fucking bash script. You could write this in pure C by getting out of your lazy ass, and some baseddev did. https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch. At least, now when I type this meme command, my eyes won't hurt.

Do you guys lose interest in tech once it matures? I noticed this about myself. I was thinking about why I hate computers now, and used to be so in to them. And I think for me, when they were simple enough that you could see how/why they work, and see the *potential* for where it could be headed, THAT was cool to me. I could type some commands and a turtle could draw a shape on the screen and I saw where that was headed and I thought it was all neat and wanted to play with it more. Now it's just a bunch of packaged-up homogenized overly-stylistic bullshit to me
>>23461 (OP) >Do you guys lose interest in tech once it matures? What you're asking about is burnout, and it does happen to everyone. The best way to address it is to remove yourself from it for a while before you actually return and take an interest in it again. In regards to computers, there is still a lot of stuff that can be improved or worked on. However "no one" gives a shit about your project unless (1) you code it in Python, (2) you develop for Botnet 11, and/or (3) you develop for Linux. All of which are "dead ends", mind you. Outside of those areas, the sky's the limit in what hasn't been accomplished.

Still cannot comprehend why someone wouldn't use C99 instead. rust just sucks. On C you download the library and compile, and if you fuck up the memory allocation that's on you. In rust you have a whole package manager and a quirky syntax to lord over everyone between dilations about how much better and "memory safe" it is, when in reality it just tries to stop you from array out of bounds and that's it. Just stop being stupid. C isn't even fucking hard, that's a jew op. The Day of The Butter Sauce will come.
What is it you trannies are doing that is SO important it can't just be a fuckin python script
>>18996 anti-rust people dont want to be coached dont want to be groomed dont want to be told what to do by insufferable power tripping faggots and that makes you mad whatever silly memory management rust is doing can be done with proper encapsulation and delegation to constructors in c++ as long as you are not a complete retard and can pay attention within the creator and destructor

Why don't I see more people using Mini Desktop Thin Clients? Anonymous 06/25/2025 (Wed) 14:28:43 No. 23449 [Reply]
Considering the smaller and minimalist setup, I genuinely don't know why you guys keep ignoring desktop thin clients as a good alternative cheap desktop for running linux? I mean, I guess the limited hardware? But I mean, that didn't stop you from obsessing over Raspberry Pi. In fact, Thin clients are a lot cheaper than Raspberry Pis, You can just snag a used one at your local dollar store and it can perform decently or even near the stats of RPI 2 to 3. I bought 2 Thin clients and downloaded Gentoo on it and honestly? The performance actually shocked me. Time to get Clientpilled on Desktops

RiseUp VPN Anonymous 04/25/2025 (Fri) 14:10:38 No. 20953 [Reply] [Last]
I recently started using RiseUp VPN. Is it good? Is it safe for torrenting? I've neger used a vpn before (no isp letters for torrenting where i live, as far as i know it never happened here) and i Don t want to pay for one because i 'm broke. Pic unrelated (fuck kikes)
34 posts omitted.
>>20983 >If all you're doing is torrenting your ISP won't do shit Extremely bad advice. In reality, it's highly dependent on which country you live in. American copyright and litigation laws are so fucked that there's a whole cottage industry of bot companies that file copyright complaints on behalf of the copyright holders, without the copyright holders even knowing about it, and make their money by getting kickbacks from the copyright holders for successful DMCA takedowns. I see no reason why these companies wouldn't be just as active patrolling public torrent trackers as they are on youtube. The worst that will probably happen, in the USA at least, is that your ISP ban you from their service, which can suck if they're the only one in your podunk village. Usually they'll first send you a threatening letter telling you to knock it off or they'll sue, so you'll (usually) have some warning. To my knowledge, they haven't actually prosecuted anyone for piracy since the Napster days. If you want to pirate in the US, either pay the $3/month for a VPN or use a direct download site with HTTPS and an alternative DNS provider.
>Pic unrelated (fuck kikes) Not that unrelated as you think
>>23166 >and an alternative DNS provider This won't help you if you're not using encrypted DNS and Encrypted Client Hello.

Matrix instances: free-speech, open-registration Anonymous 06/18/2025 (Wed) 09:37:57 No. 23407 [Reply]
I am looking for a Matrix instance that supports American Amendment-style free speech (i.e., there is no such thing as "hate speech"). Anyone have any pointers as to any? I've been looking for a while, but most seem inactive or closed for registration.
Honestly you're better off hosting your own server and connecting to the network through it. Channels (or whatever they are called) have their own rules anyway, irrespective of where you come from, so even if you were to register on a server meeting your requirements it does not mean you won't get banned. With that in mind, those 5 dollars a month to rent a VPS are worth it since the most they can do is keep you from using their channel, not delete your account, and in the worst case you can even create your own rooms.

Ubuntu 24/Fedora 42. Why the fuck is Gnome renaming images drag/dropped to "Dropped Image" from the browser? Any other OS/DE keeps the original filename. But not fucking Gnome. There are 0 results about this on the web.
>>23242 Not trying to antagonize you, and not that it'll help, but it kind of baffles me that Gnome is still even used as frequently as it is. Dev team are pants on head retarded and obtuse, the DE is clunky and awkward without a dozen plugins that Gnome has no interest in honoring or preserving, etc. Makes a lot sense that even distros like Fedora are finally starting to consider using KDE as the default.

>>23320 Gnome feels like pic related. Want to type into the location/address bar when saving a file from the browser? No, fuck you, use our playschool buttons. Want to search for a folder in the save as dialog? What's the use-case? You want copy/paste +1000 files from your windows filesystem to the current one? Enjoy the complete system freeze after a couple seconds. I'm surprised KDE is not the standard DE. "lol Krashes", but I experienced more crashes/freezes on Gnome that forced a system restart. KDE recovers. Sometimes I only know about it because an error reporter shows up. I tried Ubuntu because I couldn't be bothered to figure out how to install Nvidia drivers. I moved to Tumbleweed and learned how to make KDE + Wayland + Nvidia work. But still had to return to Windows because games stutter badly. I won't return to Linux until I get an AMD GPU (maybe next gen).
