>>23220 durabook if you got cash to burn. it's rated for water resistance and getting dropped onto concrete but idfk about sticky yellow fingers. a better bet might be to get a cheap thinkpad and replace the keyboard and/or screen relatively often. any laptop would work for this, but thinkpads have replacement parts widely available.

Has anyone investigated whether utilizing a VGA monitor with TOR creates a fingerprinting risk due to its uncommon video resolution? I've been thinking, what if I repurpose an old monitor without a polarizing filter for private TOR browsing?

>>/gacha/620535 Begin with programming. Its needed even if you'll go Linux engineer. I recommend Python since its the most popular language and also the easiest one to start. Once you'll be done with the basics and reach Object-Oriented level you need to decide which position you like the most: >Software developer >Linux Engineer First is divided into: >Videogame dev >Backend(Web services) dev >Frontend dev Python is primarily a backend language that also used the most in Linux(Ansible automatizations) that's why its the best language to start with! C# and C++ are more videogames oriented. >C# Unity Engine. The most popular freeware game engine uses it. >C++: Unreal Engine. C++ is also used in hardware development but then its mostly used as an "additional tool" basically it means you need to know something else, like physics, to be able to code Car Brains or Drones or whatever. IMO low level languages like C++ and Rust are only for nerds and its an almost impossible task to find a job as a C++ coder. >Frontend aka What we actually see in the browser Frontend is CSS and Java Script(Second most popular language). The easiest approach. Be wary that market is over-bloated with frontend devs. >Backend The most profitable but least enjoyable coding. Most languages have open-source libraries for web-service based applications. This includes: Web-Servers, Web-Applications and Sites. You will also need to know what containerization is. Basically being able to wrap your app in a dockerfile for further deployment. >Videogames The least profitable but the most enjoyable coding. Overall every language that's "Turing-full" can be used to create absolutely anything. It's just that certain ones have Frameworks and Libraries that turn the literally impossible task into "bearable to work with". There's also >Linux engeneer or System engeneer or DevOps You'll need to know Python and many many many Linux-based applications here but its paid as well as Backend and its way easier to find job as one. You'll need to learn things like: >Ansible >Docker >Kubernetes >Prometheus >Python(for ansible), Bash(native shell for Linux) and Go(Zoomer's C) languages for automatizations And many others since each company wants Linux engineers for different purposes!

how can I download this video? https://webcast.ec.europa.eu/ngi-forum-1a-2025-06-20 I don't want to have to install a browser extension (don't trust them) but if it's impossible to do otherwise, that'd be helpful information. I find these websites where the video comes out in tiny parts (as opposed to a simple .mp4 file I can get a link to via "view page source") very tricky. The video will probably interest people here by the way.

I've set up a website and the logs are full of bots trying to find vulnerabilities, checking for the existence of .git directories, admin.php and such. It's a static HTML site with zero interactivity so I'm not too worried, but is there a way to block the IPs of these assholes automatically?

>>23651 look up fail2ban, i guess.

I have a faraday bag which I put my phone in to prevent tracking but it still receives texts inside it. Is it right to conclude from this that the faraday bag does not prevent tracking? If so, what should I get to prevent tracking?

How/where do I get info on phone stability/tendency to crash? I use Poco X6 Pro, it look quite powerful for its class based on youtube review and Antutu score around 1,2-1,6m. Then the game i never crashed in Oppo A9 2020 crash twice a day on my X6. I look around and got told DImensity 8300 is unstable. Then my lead on stats that support this is Nanoreview’s Wildlife Stress Test stability score of 86%. Recently they remove Wildlife from their website and UL Benchmarks is even worse at displaying result than Antutu website.

>>23685 Absolutely, the bag is worthless. You did right to suspect it and not trust marketing. If you want to be sure for your next bag, test all the wireless comms on your phone: - cellular (text/calling) - wifi (will internet radio stop playing when you put it in the bag?) - bluetooth (does your bluetooth speaker/headphones lose connection?) If the signals can pass through the bag, the bag doesn't stop anything!

>>23444 > VGA monitor with TOR creates a fingerprinting risk no, nothing specific about VGA. [i]maybe[/i] if you mean some of VGA's incident factors, or if your definiton of fingerprinting includes side-channel attacks... > uncommon video resolution Using the Tor Browser protects you here, they have specific mitigations for this fingerprint. > without a polarizing filter Only a concern if there's a white unmarked van parked outside or they otherwise planted physical hardware near your office. >>23736 > How/where do I get info on phone stability/tendency to crash? There are three ways this research would be available: - A turboautist tested and documented everything on his blog/website - A company has a vested interest in smartphone stability, AND uses off-the-shelf phones as if they're consumables, AND publishes their research - there happens to be recent ombudsman research on this specific subject Everything else is vacuous marketing or quickly-outdated reviews.

am I going fucking crazy or did grub get fucked in an update? I do full disk encryption, but yesterday when I try to turn on my computer the bootloader says it is unable to find "cryptouuid/(very long UUID)" even though such an UUID is not mentioned anywhere. I'm fucking serious I typed 'grep -R (said UUID) /boot' and nothing shows up! Why is grub trying to do something that is not written in the config files?

>>23763 I erased the entire operating system and installed again, and the problem still exists. The problem is either at the MBR or grub itself

>>23763 >>23776 Fixed it. My bios changed the boot order out of nowhere and was loading an old HD I don't use.

>>23747 I got my lead from reddit. or at least for battery hungry phone: lowest clock number My Poco is at 400mhz (as opposed to usual 100-200 of power efficient SoC) but again the problem is these minimal number is undocumented.

Which fork or whatever of Clover can both display 8chan and also simplify the application's look as close to the original Clover as possible?

So I have a problem and I wonder if anyone here can help. >fucking lunatic exists >this person is every manner of derange manipulative fuck you can imagine >have a kid >kid is just like them and a deranged manipulative fuck >both are knocking at death's door because they fucked up their bodies >BUT >don't know if they are dead yet Basically, is there any site or anything that will tell me if someone is dead that i DON'T have to pay some ass backwards monthly fee? I seriously need to know when these two lunatics finally bite the dust and I can live my life free.

I want to ask before creating a thread in case it is not allowed for some reason. Why don't we have a thread discussing cuckchan's leaked source code? >>23897 I'm interested in helping with anything that might make this site more popular, but I only used clover once or twice, so I don't know what it looked like. If you make me a wireframe in paint, I can set up a repo on gitgud or something. I don't know for how long Android is going to allow installation of apps not verified by Google, though, with all the ID verification bullshit going on.

>>23898 Look for online obituaries as they usually post for free. You could also try looking them up on search engines like >[Name] “death” (Keep quotes) or > [NAME] “obituary” (Keep quotes) Might help if you had more information like what state they're in or how they probably died. If they died via motorcycle accident, then you would look up like >[Name] "motorcycle accident" (keep quotes)

>>23912 Well I know what state they live in and their most prominent medical issues. My main issue is many online obituaries try to get you to sign up for them.

>>23909 Sure. https://github.com/chandevel/Clover This is the original Clover. It's been dead for six years since the 4chan captcha got updated one too many times for the original lazy-ass dev. But it's still perfectly functional for viewing, and to post it's a matter of opening an in-app Chrome window to paste your message in and do the captcha. I like it a lot and it's been my primary way to browse what few imageboards it was made to adopt. There's a simplicity to it that the devs of all the forks and spinoff like "Pony Clover" or Child Lover" that too many users sadly get on board with. All I could ever ask for is something as close as possible to the original Clover that works here.

How hard is it to make a discord account over Tor without needing a phone number or chancing it with 20 captchas?

Personal information on an old social media profile of mine, long since updated to remove it, still seems to be haunting me in the form of a snippet that refuses to update on Yandex's search results. Neither the current page nor their cached version contains it, making me have no hope that it'll dissapear by simply deleting the profile. I submitted a request through their help center at ads.yandex.com/helpcenter/en/support/contact, emphasizing the need for GDPR compliance and offering further information via a throwaway email address. Alas, two weeks have passed with no email from Yandex. Now what? Furthermore, I've come to realize that paid data brokers may have also captured this outdated information, with no way of checking. To opt out of these services, I must navigate an arduous list of links, much like those found on GitHub and inteltechniques. Proving my identity to rectify this issue may be challenging due to the association with my username rather than my email address. A recent Reddit post has even suggested that requesting data removal can inadvertently provide corporations with additional information about us. This is a concerning prospect, and I'm left wondering how best to proceed in such cases. >>23919 Search "temporary phone number".

>>23930 You're probably shit out of luck. The jew e-celeb CEO for redact.dev seems like the only one working on a non-pozzed solution for data brokers, but it's all a complete shitshow.

How do I get my browser to save the contents of my 'watched threads' list when I close it or delete cookies? I already have 8chan.moe/se in my exceptions but it doesn't help.

Ok this is pissing me off and I need your help. >Have to get external DVD R+W >use it and it burns just fine >get DVD styler and make 2 quality DVDs >go to make another >does the whole prepping process and starts to burn only for this error to pop up >broken Pipe USUALLY means the cord had some failure or some program was running in the background >no, can burn files and videos directly to disk >can put in a disk and read the data and watch videos just fine >but it gives me this shit now when I use DVD styler >tried pull out USB cord and put it back in >no difference I'm getting fucking irate. The hell is going on and how the fuck do I get it to work again?

>>23967 >Having problems with DVDs. I feel your pain anon, I been trying to digitalize a ton of dvds and cds for archiving purposes, but its been months and i have made almost no progress in anything. I tried with multiple programs (like VLC, HandBrake, Xfburn, etc...) but none of those actually saved the menus and the extra content. I just want a simple way to turn the dvd into a .iso file... I guess i'm gonna keep searching. Also I asked an AI about your problem and it seems that is not a USB problem but a conflict between your DVD Styler and your DVD drive. It seems like a comunication issue, Here's a summary of the possible fixed proposed by the AI. Summary of Fixes: Fix Action ✅ Switch Burn Mode →Use TAO/DAO in DVD Styler settings. ✅ Burn ISO Separately →Export ISO and use ImgBurn/Nero. ✅ Update Firmware →Flash latest firmware for your DVD drive. ✅ Disable USB Power Saving →Prevent Windows from suspending the drive. ✅ Use a New Disc →Try a different brand/model of DVD-RW. And if those fixes dont work here are some alternative programs to try. >If All Else Fails If none of the above works, use a different tool for DVD authoring: →DVDFlick (free): Creates DVDs with menus and burns them via ImgBurn. →Nero Burning ROM (paid): Stable and supports complex DVD authoring. →DVD Shrink (free): For compressing and burning existing DVDs. Also, posting some unfunny somewhat related memes

>>23971 Wouldn't the dd command in Linux create a simple .iso file like you want?

>>24044 even easier: # cp /dev/sr0 disk_image.iso

I have an old iPad (So old that it uses for the first gen charging cable) that's running iOS 9.3.5 that refuses to connect to my Wifi, but still has great battery life. I factory reset it several months ago, meaning that everything is wiped from it. What can I do with it as far as softmodding it and installing apps?

>>23747 After some research I guess Poco X6 instability because Dimensity 8300 overclock its Cortex-A715 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ARM_Cortex-A715 from 3,0 Ghz into 3,3 Hell even the 3 cores in mid is overclocked! >>23917 If it can allow user to not see "Welcome to 8chan" message every day I can recommend it to my user (singular)

Need software with features and size like http://tululoo.com ??? maybe more features. also since it's a unique software, some MASSIVE, tutorial to make all sorts of games...or even softwares... maybe books?

>>24248 DO NOT REDEEM

I'm CachyOS looking for an alterntive to Speccy from Windows. I have InfoCenter, but it feels a little difficult to parse what is and isn't useful information to me. Is there anything for Cachy similar to Speccy that summarizes cleanly the most useful information about my all my hardware?

>>24407 Usually people just use neofetch. https://alternativeto.net/software/speccy/?license=opensource&platform=linux

>>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?
