WarmApplePieShrek,

they’ll be absolved because they’re a corporation

Me vs my ISP

So I was looking into getting port forwarding set up and I realized just how closed-off the internet has gotten since the early days. It’s concerning. It used to be you would buy your own router and connect it to the internet, and that router would control port-forwarding and what-have-you....

WarmApplePieShrek,

Check if it has a passthru or bridge mode

How does it feel hoarding IPs from 7 other people who want one?

WarmApplePieShrek,

Asking is free

WarmApplePieShrek,

Tunnelling isn’t a DNS provider

WarmApplePieShrek,

You can rent a server in a data center. Hetzner is pretty good… unless it thinks you’re a “risky customer” and bans you.

WarmApplePieShrek,

The things you think aren’t finished because it’s still in development are actually not finished because they’re just the way the developers want.

WarmApplePieShrek,

Xorg is the organization behind Wayland, and the Xorg X11 server is also the best Wayland compositor.

WarmApplePieShrek, (edited )

Security at the expense of usability comes at the expense of security. X11 doesn’t have security. Wayland doesn’t have usability or security. Security is about putting walls in front of the bad guys while letting the good guys go through. Wayland just puts walls around everyone.

WarmApplePieShrek,

There’s still no standard on how to use dbus so I don’t get your point

WarmApplePieShrek,

You still have to do this with dbus

WarmApplePieShrek,

But it’s not. Why is it better to have a different degree distribution?

WarmApplePieShrek,

You got downvoted for speaking the truth. You can’t talk to a dbus app without understanding how it communicates. You can’t talk to a sockets app without understanding how it communicates.

WarmApplePieShrek,

but you still have to understand the methods available in every daemon

WarmApplePieShrek,

The Linux kernel is already a central event bus of sockets, btw

WarmApplePieShrek,

this is the real answer - programming language bindings

WarmApplePieShrek,

GNOME also works because Lennart said so.

But I think DBUS was a simpler KDE reimplementatioon of something GNOME did.

WarmApplePieShrek,

Don’t get me wrong, he deserves a long and drawn out lesson on morals

Fuck that. His morals are completely correct.

WarmApplePieShrek,

In the regular market, no head of security wants to be responsible for a potential critical breach by hiring such a wild cannon.

Remember when a company’s head of security was fired and prosecuted for ordering a pentest against his own company, which is a normal thing that good heads of security do?

WarmApplePieShrek,

What did he do that was wrong?

WarmApplePieShrek,

reality is left-wing

After 23 years, developer reveals he snuck a cheat code past Sony that turns a cult-classic horror game into a godsend for retro enthusiasts (www.gamesradar.com)

Article about a recent revelation by the Youtube Channel Modern Vintage Gaming: The game “Alien Resurrection” by Argonaut contains a code which allows to run burned CD copies of Playstation 1 games.

WarmApplePieShrek,

Reveal them anonymously.

WarmApplePieShrek,

Can you install a switch in line with the disc motor so it stops spinning or does that trigger an error?

Proton VPN on Linux looks very different from Windows. How do you select one of their P2P options for faster torrenting?

Pretty much what the title says. I noticed that ProtonVPN Linux has an EXTREMELY limited interface compared to their program on Windows. I also do not appear to have the option to bind qBittorrent to ProtonVPN the same way that I did with MullvadVPN. Has anybody experienced ProtonVPN on Linux and successfully used it for...

WarmApplePieShrek,

The problem: your IPv6 might not go through the VPN.

If you have IPv6, you’re running two completely separate networks, one IPv4 and one IPv6. And a bad VPN won’t block or VPN the IPv6 network.

ProtonVPN doesn’t do IPv6 but they’re working on it.
