I came across a mention of Fluvium Technologies in an old document linked to Prototype: Essence. It pointed to Rue d’Avalon, Kirchberg, Luxembourg around 2008-2013. But nothing’s left of the said “company” now. The logs stopped around 2013, just when the Snowden leaks happened, but now, we’re seeing new fragments appearing. Trying to understand why. The Prototype: Essence audio fragments may all trace back to this place over a decade ago… but what do you guys think happened there?

stupid question, but i have this huge torrent that i have been seeding for 2 years and want to share. but i dont have the original torrent file anymore. is there a way to recreate it quickly or do i have to buffer it for an hour in the create torrent option of qbittorrent? and if i do will it still be in the same seedpool as the previous torrent? like will people that have seeded my current torrent be able to seed for people on the one i make now?

What's up with websites that try to push you to their shitty mobile apps that don't have all the features of the website? Lookin at you, GitHub

Hello. I'm thinking of buying IEM headphones to listen to music and for daily use in general. I have thought between the KZ EDX PRO and the TRN MT1. Can someone help me decide between those 2? In my third world country they are at the same price so it doesn't matter at that point. But some audiophile that tells me which one is not garbage?

Sphynx can eat my sphincter. It takes more effort to set up than just writing yoir own documentation. A truly engineered piece of shit.

Is anyone else's Chat GPT cringey? Why is mine so fuckin cringey?

Any foldable phone such as galazy z flip or motorola razr that I would be able to degoogle and install something like lineage, calyx, graphene, or any other alternative instead? I know GrapheneOS is unfortunately only available for pixels. Neither Lineage or Calyx offer support for foldables either, and those are the only 3 I know of. Are there any other alternatives to look into?

Am i the only one who constantly struggles to actually make Qt's data models actually usable for practical purposes? It sounds good on paper -- oh, QListView? QComboBox? QTreeView? Yeah, just give them all your model and they work like magic! ... Until you want to add more more fucking "Add New .." row to the top of just your combo box.

Wait 900 seconds, do the captcha, it gives me the tick to indicate that it's verified successfully, makes me wait 900 seconds again. What the actual fuck? how does anyone even use cuckchan anymore? how has this shithole not been completely abandoned at this point?

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.

I mostly wanted to make this ask if there is a good internet database for old computer hardware. But also to genuinely know if you anons would ne intrested in this thread added on emulation too because that's one of the few experiences with older computers Do you also anons have any old or even retro to vintage computers?

Is there any steganographic encryption/Tor/etc. out there I can use when this "let's ban encryption!" bullshit gets passed? Because let's be honest, they're eventually going to pass it, just like every other bullshit legislation they always eventually want to pass.

GNOME is just so fucking disgustingly godawful. It's absolutely revolting dogshit. It's just awfully abysmal. It's a repulsive ideology seeping into every crevice of open source it can get its grimy tendrils into. It's a campaign to make user interfaces look as repugnantly drab and soulless as possible. It's a movement to suck the life and usability out of the desktop user experience. Every one of the pawns who have 'contributed' in any way to GNOME from 3.0 onwards is responsible for the gradual destruction of the concept of the desktop user interface that was built from the ground up from those passionate for computers to make a positive difference in people's live from the 1960s to today. I really, really, really fucking hate GNOME. And if you don't, you're wrong.
