The thing which confuses me more is that there are brands under Shenzhen which are still good quality (Xduoo and Matrix) - I can't work out which ones are their home grown ones and which they bought up under their distro empire. Other than Topping and SMSL, which were their grass roots ones.

legitimate question. What exactly is the purpose of this in a web browser these days? It isn't like people are sharing computers or tablets. Even poor people on welfare have their very own smartphone or computer that's subsidized entirely by the government, one for each member of the family. Nobody is sharing tech these days, especially something as personal as a phone, tablet, or computer. Why would you need an incognito function on a computer that you own and use exclusively yourself? Did we really need to implement this entirely new function in a web browser when you could just click history and then delete the website from there?

>What exactly is the purpose of this in a web browser these days?
It provides a browsing session where cookies and site data aren't retained after the session ends. It also isolates this session, for the most part.

>It isn't like people are sharing computers or tablets
Have you ever worked in the IT department at a corporate office, nonprofit, school, or university?

>Nobody is sharing tech these days
They are though.

>Why would you need an incognito function on a computer that you own and use exclusively yourself?
Because sometimes you don't want the data from a browsing session to be retained, or you need a session that is separate from the standard one (e.g. You want to use two different accounts on a domain simultaneously). It's why almost every browser has this feature or an equivalent one.

>“relevant devices” are smartphones or tablet computers which are either internet-connectable products or network-connectable products for the purposes of section 5 of the Product Security and Telecommunications Infrastructure Act 2022
So it's for smartphones and tablets only? What?
Something which was already bound to be incredibly ineffective has been hobbled to be even more ineffective, because surely anyone who wants to hide what they're doing will just use a laptop, or a desktop.
I think they realised it would be too impractical to force changes to every computer (they can't even keep their own government computers up to date) so they went for phones only, figuring that that is enough surveillance for one day. Oh and I guess slap something about doing it to protect children on the end of the bill or something. Whatever.
The Secretary of State can expand to any other device with either a screen, camera, or the ability to transmit, so I guess that clause is just a foot in the door anyway.

>but what gives you the confidence to say that it would not pass?
NTA. But common sense.
The UK .gov doesn't actually make hardware, and arguably a few f'kin webforms doesn't count as software.

So for this to work they will need *everyone else* everywhere else to do their dirty work. How they actually going to achieve this?

Lets pretend this actually happens - without compromising the presence of the things various alphabet soups want to remain undiscovered - then how is this tangibly achievable? Via what mechanism is "tamper proof" with physical access going to operate? How will the device determine you are watching, viewing(isn't they the same?) or streaming CSAM?
What about the literally millions of devices already in the field that do not comply with this?

>how to fucking use it and not get abused by it.
There is no "not get abused by it".
They're building a stick to hit you with. Running around seeing how many nails you can cram into it is never going to result in lacking abuse.

You might be productive to spend some time thinking about the long term uses for the data collected. If you get near "advertising" then it will be prudent to recall the scale of their global operation for a decade before people started to question the money flow. As well as recall companies like Cambridge Analytica, what happened to them, why, and people they'd previously taken money from, and their next moves...

>the social media issue is a symptom of the parenting issue
Parenting is certainly an issue, but it's a symptom of the retard issue. The retards unable to think about the long term consequences of their actions.
The people that made this a problem? They're parents now. They cannot fix the problem, they didn't understand it was a problem when they didn't, and still don't fully grasp the problem they've created now.

There is always something interesting there you can't find on the so-called surface web. In both speed and content, it was like the 90s Internet. It was way better before 2013 when Freedom Hosting got taken down. A lot of pedo shit was removed, but some good and interesting stuff went with it unfortunately. I'd waste a lot of time on the "Questions and Answers Game" and there were a number of social networks. Though probably a load of shit, the "Human Experiment" site was still pretty creepy.
These days, I mostly use it for the Library of Trantor and Just Another Library (though I think this one is now offline) to get free books, which is not exactly law-abiding because of the piracy, but it's not drugs, guns, or pedo porn.
>>
On the topic of Freedom Hosting, does anybody really believe it was run by one man and wasn't a honeypot? I find it hard to believe, given how many Tor hidden services were hosted on it for FREE, with as many DBs as you wanted and an FTP service, and the most you got in terms of restriction was a mild mannered warning on the homepage about not using too much disk space and bandwidth. Also, the only way to contact the owner was a link to a thread on Onionforum which had shut down a few years before Freedom Hosting finally went under.

this argument is kind of true, but I'd argue that both node and react with their wild west ecosystem of libraries, opens the door for malicious third parties way too much
>>
>>107540282
I don't think the problems with Next.js were connected to malicious NPM packages though. It looks like they were problems with React's own code:
>a security vulnerability in React that allows unauthenticated remote code execution

>Denial of Service and Source Code Exposure in React Server Components
https://react.dev/blog/2025/12/11/denial-of-service-and-source-code-exposure-in-react-server-components

If you install random NPM packages then yeah that's probably a bad idea. If you stick with trusted stuff like React then you may still encounter vulnerabilities, but they should be patched very quickly after being discovered.

>How are the users going to interact with your app?
there are 15-20 stations around the facility - each station is a pc with a 21" touch screen. the app is only used on those machines.
app runs in docker, stations just open the network adress and we're good to go.

>>107540280
>like a nightmare scenario
yes and no. I mean we/they're a chocolate factory that hired an external company to build something for them - so of course nobody needed access to deep level stuff; they'd just call the devs and ask them to change this and that and to report bugs.

I'm actually not on a time schedule. the current app -is- still working fine. it's outdated, but it's working. of course I'm not going out of my way to take my time and do nothing, but it's not like they're breathing down my neck. at all. it's really chill and they're all very nice people.

I just get the feeling that they didn't really think this project through before they hired me. or rather, they didn't know the technical requirements for this to work. as I said, my boss is a network admin and used to working with end-user software. we're also the same age and if I explain to him how something works and what I need to make things work he listens and acknowledges the problems and doesn't want things to just magically work.
>>
>>107540280
>How fast do they want to see the changes they make reflected on your app? Say they add a new recipe or take out an ingredient, how much time do you have before that change has to be in your app? In your role as a cms user, do you have a way to access the entire database? can you somehow backup the data, store it all in a file, dump the data somehow?

if you're talking about manual export and import - no, it should work automatically. the production team turns off an ingredient or shape, topping, whatever if it's out of stock within the cms. so once it's out, users shouldn't be able to use those ingredients in the terminal. of course they turn off availability shorty before it's actually gone, so that orders that are still withing the loop are still valid.
I don't know the exact sync schedule, but it should be within minutes.

Windows caches stuff into free RAM to make things faster and that's not listed under the processes tab because it's not any specific process using that memory
Check your memory in the performance tab, you should see how much is being used for cache/standby
Windows does this because there is literally no reason not to if it makes things faster. It will free that RAM if you need it for other stuff

You are right and I don't like to gatekeep too much. So here are some hints.

Take an Arris or Motorola DOCSIS modem, even 2.0 or 3.0 will work fine. Flash Bitware, Forceware or Haxorware on it. After that it will give you access to download the configuration the CMTS pushed to you.
Edit the configuration using one of the two tools that support it. They run on Linux and OSX just fine and one is open-source.
In the config you will realize that the CMTS purposefully pushed you something that wouldn't work. But they crafted that config by taking a config that would work and then adding 2-3 things that would make it not work. Delete those rows. Rebuild the config. "Force" load it to the cable modem using its UI. You will have unrestricted internet access after making sure the primary equipment (your router) connected to the modem configured to ignore the DHCP provided DNS by the modem. At this configuration, you will have a semi-static IP that's mapped to the MAC addr of your primary equipment (the router). You can change your MAC addr to get a new IP from the pool.

This shit baffles me. Is it true? Maybe it’s specific to cable internet, cause obviously with fibre they have an ONT that they can just tell to turn off, but even on DSL you’d be coming in on a specific phoneline that already had a phone number attached to it, and all of them use PPPoE to manage the connection, so when you get disconnected they just ignore everything from you.
