>>24423 >Usually people use something that displays everything in command line Dude, I just got off Windows. I think I'll just use the built in Info Center. It has a Sensors section with temps and high/critical warning temps spelled out, but hell if I can tell what fucking devices each thing is referring to. Maybe there's a way I set up an automatic notification if something starts running too hot, ideally a notification that tells me what it is that's running hot?
Perhaps thanks to a moron bumping into me yesterday (unless it was there from the beginning but I didn't notice it), my brand fucking new phone - a Pixel 10 Pro Fold -- has a couple of knicks/divots/scratches etc.. on the edge near the rear covering edge and hinge itself. They're not easy to see but they can be felt as rough/jagged. Is there any way.... >I can improve/fix this myself? Some talk about using some sort of filler or glue and /or sanding it down so it won't be rough anymore but I'm worrie dabout fucking up the rest of the finish nearby - these are very small spots. Is there something made especially to fix (non-screen) scrapes or impact marks? >Just get a case to cover it I'm guessing for the case to cover it it means that it will need to be one of those with a hinge covering not the shittier ones that leave the hinge edge exposed. . Also there are a LOT of shitty cases out there one way or another. Some of the more decent ones (with Pixelsnap compatibility, hinge, ability to work with a decent screen protector etc) seem to not be releasing for weeks, like the Dbrand one (stupid as fuck that the 10 Pro Fold doesn't have a Ghost 2.0 model listed, and its Grip case is only arriving in November?) or Spigen who has at least been non-shitty in my experience years ago (not until a few more weeks). I'd be willing to pay for the big fancy aramid fiber ones but even most of those appear shitty and don't cover the edge or have magnets etc. Anyone have some suggestions for good manufacturers? Also top of the line glass screen protectors wouldn't hurt >See if I can get phone company to take it back, its within 14 days Since I cant say for sure it wasn't like this when it came out of the box and its within the 14 days, maybe the phone company can take and exchange it?

Hydrus Network #12 Anonymous Board volunteer 09/24/2025 (Wed) 18:29:57 No. 24277 [Reply] [Last]
This is a thread for releases, bug reports, and other discussion for the hydrus network software. The hydrus network client is a file-management application written for Anon and other internet-fluent media nerds who have large file collections. It browses with tags instead of folders, a little like a booru on your desktop. If they wish, users can easily share tags anonymously through a public server. Everything is free, no ads, and privacy is the first concern. If you have 10,000+ files and cannot find anything, hydrus might help! I am the hydrus developer. I am continually working on the software and try to put out a new release every Wednesday by 8pm EST. Past hydrus imageboard discussion, and these generals as they hit the post limit, are being archived at >>>/hydrus/ . Hydrus is powerful, complicated, and messy. It is not for everyone. If you would like to learn more, please check out the extensive help and getting started guide here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/

>>24480 >>24483 >>24506 Still experiencing tons of hanging on CachyOS since I switched from Windows to Linux. I run from source now and update using git_pull.sh. Experienced it on versions 642, 643, and 644, so no recent changes have remedied it. It seems to be happening more consistently though, as I used to have long periods free from it entirely. Most hanging occurs in the tag manger, with it hanging for 0.5 all the way to 5 or so seconds upon trying to load tag results, or trying to close the tag manager/apply the tags. It also crashed recently. I left it open and untouched for a few hours, and when I tried opening the window, everything but the info bar for the window and the window buttons was not rendering. Wasn't black either, it was empty and I could see other windows through it. After minimizing and maximizing a couple times to see if it clear up, it crashed. Instantly closed too, not a freeze where I had to manually kill the program. Since switching to CachyOS it's taken longer to initialing when restoring my tabs than on Windows, but after this crash it took much longer than usual. Curious to know if those logs I emailed the other day gave any insight into the issue? I'm considering seeing about running another install inside of WINE instead, but I'm not sure that will play nice with my db unless I put it inside the WINE prefix with it. Not sure about storing anything like that inside a WINE prefix at all. Updating to 645 now.
>>24573 Also, I must note, the hanging in the tag manager for tag searches happens even when searching the same query over and over. Been going though a lot of similar files that need tags that all start with the same word. While the very first search for that query can take the longest, repeated searches when the results I presume may still be in RAM can be instant on occasion but usually hang with variation now.

So, what's so bad about Tor? >it's a honeypot Not really, I have done extensive research into this and the only people caught on it were dumb fucks who made OpSec mistakes. Plus, the only people championing this point are schizos who use VPN services or set up their own VPN, or even just use their plain ISP-given IP address, all of which are way riskier than using Tor. If you're concerned about onion links being honeypots, then set up your own. It's one of the easiest things in the world to do. >it's slow Fair enough. >a lot of sites block it Yeah, and a lot of sites are fags anyways, a lot of sites are also using ReCatapha and require phone verification and use Cloudflare or AWS. Sites have been against privacy for a long time and are banning VPNs too. >it's operated by sjws&trannies Literally everything is now, including VPN services and ISPs, there is no escape unless you want to fully disconnect from the internet and live in a cabin in the woods, which considering people are still using this site, I don't see happening. Also, the directors are known privacy-advocates. >firefox Firefox is rapidly becoming a shit browser for privacy, yes, Chromium is worse, "Ungoogled" Chromium is still Chrome garbage, same with Brave, alternative Firefox builds are usually outdated, and Opera is blatantly spyware. Meanwhile, Tor usually strips out all the tracking that Firefox tries to push in new releases. >relays and nodes operated by governments Which is more of a reason to get more people using Tor so more people can set up nodes and relays aside from government interference. Not opening this to start an argument or a bash on how bad Tor is or just to simply praise Tor, I want a discussion, because most points about Tor being bad for privacy are easily debunked and usually only used by schizos and I want to ensure my personal privacy.

>>24544 >There's no use case except for pedos, drug users, and terrorists. Those may be a sizeable percent of users, but there are other use cases. I've lived in Baghdad, Doha, Dubai, Manama, Moscow, Kiev, Berlin, Nairobi, Entebbe, just to name a few... Avoiding government spying and MITM attacks... Dubai and Hong Kong both banned VPN's and had national firewalls using deep packet inspection to catch VPN users. In Dubai, there is a 2 million AED fine for using a VPN to view banned websites... Tor with a bridge is a much safer option. Reporters, business executives, government contractors, and plenty of others benefit from TOR in instances where a VPN is not a viable solution. Though pedos and drug users are the most prolific, I'm sure...
>>24544 IMO Tor is an essential tool for any sysadmin. First of all just for checking how your endpoints appear to the outside. You can guarantee the exit node won't be on some whitelist or have special forwarding rules. Secondly, spinning up an onion service is incredibly quick and easy. Barely any need for infrastructure or configuration, and lowest maintenance costs... Let's Encrypt can't compare. Need a quick domain? .onion and socks Thirdly, Tor Browser is excellent about nonpersistence, which is useful for debugging website issues.
>>24544 I am a former LEO and now an investigator for a law firm, tor is superior to a standard VPN as any VPN ultimately comes back to a person. The inbound connection can be easily traced back to its origin. Before I learned about tor I was using stacked VPN's or using Azure to spin up a VPC, remoting in to it, and then using a VPN outward. Tor has cut my budget and complexity down a lot. I can simply open Tor browser or Brave and go to work. Instead of spending nearly half an hour setting up a VPC in Azure and installing the software I need, I just use my work PC as is. Nothing more is needed.

Alternatives to Discord Anonymous 10/10/2025 (Fri) 12:56:27 No. 24369 [Reply]
Since everyone hates discord let's share some alternatives. Of course discord compresses many functions and as such you'd need to use differente apps. For one on one chats, I think XMPP is cool but I have yet to convince my friends to use it. Matrix and telegram are too close to discord imho For short-term group chats, I have self-hosted mumble a couple times and it's pretty fun. There's also jitsi for giving you the rare screensharing. I haven't used much IRC because I don't like sitting on the computer. For long-term group chats of course there's forums and imageboards. Do you know any others?

>>24555 but XMPP already has a GUI, unless you want to recreate servers, but again I think that's a terrible idea
>>24555 it's not putting a text chat together with voice and video that's the hard part, there are plenty of alternatives that already do this the problem is in trying to integrate all the other stupid quirky shit discord has into one of those other applications that has prevented anything from actually competing against it discord continues to provide a "free" as in free beer platform that draws users in, an api that lets users write channel bots which I guess is versatile otherwise nobody would give a shit, a persistent chat log for all fhe "FOMO" fags (which as far as I can tell never expires), then you have the media embedding, and shit I guess you pay for like badges and custom emotes or whatever the fuck it's just little insignificant shit that keeps fags hookd on discord because it's eye candy

Microsoft is plugging more holes that let you use Windows 11 without an online account Anonymous 10/08/2025 (Wed) 00:12:25 No. 24351 [Reply]
>Microsoft is cracking down on bypass methods that let Windows 11 installs use a local account, and avoid an internet requirement during the setup process. In a new Windows 11 test build released today, Microsoft says it’s removing known workarounds for creating local accounts as they can apparently cause issues during the setup process. >“We are removing known mechanisms for creating a local account in the Windows Setup experience (OOBE),” says Amanda Langowski, the lead for the Windows Insider Program. “While these mechanisms were often used to bypass Microsoft account setup, they also inadvertently skip critical setup screens, potentially causing users to exit OOBE with a device that is not fully configured for use.” >The changes mean Windows 11 users will need to complete the OOBE screens with an internet connection and Microsoft account in future versions of the OS. >Microsoft already removed the “bypassnro” workaround earlier this year, and today’s changes also disable the “start ms-cxh:localonly” command that Windows 11 users discovered after Microsoft’s previous changes. Using this command now resets the OOBE process and it fails to bypass the Microsoft account requirement. https://www.theverge.com/news/793579/microsoft-windows-11-local-account-bypass-workaround-changes

>>24353 >is this a punishment to all the win 10 holdouts for not ""upgrading"" sooner? It feels more like a reward. Updooters are the ones being punished, not me.
I was a win 7 holdout, had a ton of issues with windows 10, drives going missing, ethernet drivers going missing, random 6 hour updates on a 16 core computer with nvme. Defaulting my web browser randomly, constantly nagging me, putting gay flags in the taskbar, constantly spinning up hard drives, constantly revving up the cpu when idle for no reason. Silently deletes piracy software and if you don't notice and revert through the virus center before removing the drive it's gone forever. Every update you might find it has uploaded your entire home drive into the cloud, unencrypted. Oh you want to debloat your computer with a 3rd party software...hehee, well now you have to reinstall, and your gonna need to provide a phone number and make an account. It's literally unusable, I spent less time learning linux. After 5 years I don't have any of those issues anymore and it helped me learn actual computer stuff. What I mean is I learned things like docker instead of spending my time fighting any of the issues listed above. It's not fruitlesss either, even if i never used docker again it's more useful to me than some gay ass trick to get past microsofts bullshit that will be reverted in the next update anyway. That's just pure frustration for no reason.
>>24533 You might have turned indexing off in the drive setting on 10, I did, but it would still spin up the drives every half hour or so despite not being accessed for anything. I'm guessing they removed the ability to turn indexing off in win 11?

How do we fix modern lighting problem? Anonymous 10/15/2025 (Wed) 03:57:00 No. 24429 [Reply]
LED lights are the cause of obesity, sleep problems and disturbance of ecosystem in general. Since, they are cheap the Jews feeling obligated choose them over Sodium lights. What are your opinion on cheap and healthy alternative to LEDs?
7 posts and 1 image omitted.
LED light really is just shittier overall. It's a huge increase in price to have an LED light even come close to the natural output of an incandescent while the output of the diodes gradually degrades from the moment they're being used, some losing up to 15% brightness within the first year of use, or the driving circuit failing from overheating meanwhile the diodes are fine, so you have to throw out the whole product for one flaw. From a "green" standpoint, they create far more pollution because of both the manufacturing of the electronics and "recycling" of them. Incandescent bulbs will always output the same amount of light until they burn out, the heat generated helps reduce heating costs in the winter for rooms actually being used, they are dirt cheap to manufacture because materials for them are dirt cheap, and they more easily recycled than e-waste bulbs, they don't even need fancy electronic control switches for dimming, a simple potentiometer is all you need, and if one burns out it's not a $15-$20 investment to get a single new bulb.

I'm at this point, if it's older hardware I'm going with chromium/ungoogled since it runs significantly better than firefox in ever single way on every website. On Newer hardware it's firefox with a user.js file to unpozz all the mozilla crap from it since better hardware can overcompensate for how bad firefox is as well as utilize a lot of the really good extension that mog chrome Basically everything else is just forks of these save a few fringe browser projects

Gnome isn't even a top contender desktop anymore. It's userbase is actually less than some indipendent window managers.. It's not even worth talking about the only thing that keeps them relevent is their unintentional ragebait caused from their pure unironic dogshit opinions. Wayland got popular inspite of them and they keep seething in wayland protocal discussions whenever the actual good desktops/wms propose, add and change protocals cause they can't comprehend any linux desktop existing outside of themselves.

Where I just called someone out on some obviously retarded take that wasn't being challenged, and then within less than 3 replies, every time on the third reply of theirs the account is mass deleted and all posts removed in less than a minute. I imagine major companies are just astroturfing the shit out of any discussion on there and passing it off as real discourse. The whole place seems like nothing but shadows on the wall of the most bizarre opinions which make a lot more sense now if I assume they're just AI bots. I actually went on a subreddit for the location I live, because in my area, the power company has been accused of scamming by a giant portion of the population, so much so that they've had to do a bunch of public audits/inspections and internal investigations and have had a shit load of negative media coverage about it, and on the subreddit for my area, there was nothing but people doing damage control for the electric company. And anyone who so much as mentioned what every other person in the actual real world is saying is getting a bunch of """""people""""" replying calling them idiots, morons, uneducated, you dont know shit, you're imagining it, you can't read the meter, the company said it's calculations are right, who the hell do you think you are accusing them etc etc etc. I honestly thought for a while it was just brain dead morons being brain dead morons but now I'm 100% sure it was just a mini bot farm probably from the electric company.

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?

Phone market is dead Anonymous 10/21/2025 (Tue) 13:10:00 No. 24489 [Reply]
400 bucks for the cheapest usable linux phone. Every dumbass phone is different so you can't just switch to linux. Already been through 5-6 phones due to planned obsolescence. Despite the market being so huge, it's dead, there is no competition.

Discord customer service data breach leaks user info and scanned photo IDs Anonymous 10/04/2025 (Sat) 17:54:28 No. 24320 [Reply]
>One of Discord’s third-party customer service providers was compromised by an “unauthorized party,” the company says. The unauthorized party gained access to “information from a limited number of users who had contacted Discord through our Customer Support and/or Trust & Safety teams” and aimed to “extort a financial ransom from Discord.” The unauthorized party “did not gain access to Discord directly.” >Data potentially accessed by the hack includes things like names, usernames, emails, and the last four digits of credit card numbers. The unauthorized party also accessed a “small number” of images of government IDs from “users who had appealed an age determination.” Full credit card numbers and passwords were not impacted by the breach, Discord says. >The company is notifying impacted users now over email. If your ID might have been accessed, Discord will specify that. Discord also says it revoked the support provider’s access to Discord’s ticketing system, has notified data protection authorities, is working with law enforcement, and has reviewed “our threat detection systems and security controls for third-party support providers.” https://www.theverge.com/news/792032/discord-customer-service-data-breach-hack
