lurch,

i assume “ifnot” wasn’t edgy enough and makes inferior noises on custom mechanical keyboards? /s

lurch,

the yellow one is centered to the universe

lurch,

toothpaste used to come in metal tubes too. not even long ago. it’s like they saw everyone else was polluting and they wanted in too smh

lurch,

it’s still new for gentoo users who started installing that day and decided to go with openoffice from source.

lurch,

total darkness isn’t so good tho.

dim indirect light from behind the screen is best IMO and that’s also enough to find that rare key, as well as your drink without knocking it over and causing havoc.

lurch,

Even though comments are very helpful, often it’s even enough to name variables and methods/functions really good. At least do that. You don’t want i, j and value. Believe me. You want rowCount, colCount and deliveryOption instead. You just may not know it now, but you will, when it has to be changed in a few months.

lurch,

There are sites that respect the “do not track” setting of the browser and just display a small timed info on your first visit that cookies have been rejected. Examples: geizhals.eu , geizhals.de

It could tilt them out of the viewport, leaving just a corner in, like weird minimizing

Gardeners must share beautiful flowers, goats say

lurch,

Did you live on a very fast spaceship maybe?

… or did you travel back to the start of 2023 multiple times, trying to fix the world? It would explain a lot of things.

lurch,

There is, but if one gets through, they want us to forward it to this account that will be used to train, fine tune and improve the scanner for all mailboxes, as well as security training for employees.

lurch,

Mine gives useless bonus points for forwarding the test email or an actual phishing mail to their special security scanner account.

lurch,

Maybe you already are ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

lurch,

Rookie mistake to not have secret crisp, peanut and cashew stashes hidden in reach everywhere comfy

lurch,

I don’t like the idea of free things having a “market-shate”. That’s like comparing knife cuts to bullets shot.

I mean that any attack gets more easy when you know, after it’s decrypted there are the bytes A, B and C at the locations X, Y and Z. It helps with brute force as well as hybrid attacks to find the master key.

LUKS does exactly have those specific Bytes at specific locations PLUS it has a marker that basically says “I am in this format and encrypted with this algorythm”.

lurch,

A good pasphrase helps the same for non-LUKS, but they still don’t have that specific weakness.

You can use cryptsetup without LUKS. However, something that starts to decrypt has to be unencryoted, so you can enter the password. Depending on how convenient it is for the user, it will leak some helpful info, like for example that the target is a valid file system that can be mounted or what cipher had been used.

to conceal this, you’d have to enter all it does manually in a shell/script without history. You could also add a number of bytes to skip as a sort of extra password and fill the start with random bytes, so it’s harder to find the start of the payload that is peobably a file system.

lurch,

You sure you want to use LUKS? It has a specific format that can be probed for almost like a known plain text.

"Combokeys" instead of hotkeys. [Feature/new command suggestion]

Title. Basically, “if a street fighter gamer and a linux tryhard had a baby” where a combination of keys is issued to run a command/script rather than a single or a simultaneous stroke of two or more. i.e left, down, left, right arrow keys, R_CTRL to run Firefox. Right, right, Up, right arrow keys, delete to power off the...

hyprland has this, but you have to configure it. It’s called Submaps. Some other tiling window managers/compositors (notion for example) have it too, but not to that extent. (notion can be enhanced by Lua scripting, tho.)

The idea is, after the first key of the sequence the meaning of a set of keys change. You could configure those to change the meanings again etc until you finally reach whatever depth you wanted and it performs an action.

However, be warned that hyprland is currently developed by very elitist people who like to support onky a very small set of distributions (primarily Arch btw) and have not much interest in other peoples Ubuntu shenanigens and the likes. It is extremely hard to install in Ubuntu and similar, requiring you to do minor edits to build scripts and source code in multiple languages and finding required library versions from build errors that do not mention them.

lurch,

I often switch between Wayland and X. My only concern is java does not yet support Wayland and old native libraries (e.g. 3D stuff for no longer maintained Java games) will probably break, once Java actually switches. Java and some Java games work with the xwayland compatibility layer, for now, but there are glitches sometimes. There are multiple projects porting Java stuff (e.g. Swing) to Wayland. All unofficial and incomplete.

lurch,

He should have mentioned the other room looks like the “this is fine” meme. Rookie mistake smh

lurch,

I recently worked on a system that had the TERM variable botched and filtered and no nano, just vim. It was all hell. The escape sequences in vim wouldn’t work. I ended up suspendig it with ctrl+z, killing it, then editing the config with fucking ed and sed. That hoster sucks.
