#define __NR_rt_sigprocmask        14

https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/man2/sigprocmask.2.html

today's thread is again mostly a continuation of the previous thread's discussion. we will focus on linux signals in general. from the manpage, these two excerpts are what i feel is the most interesting:
>It is not possible to block SIGKILL or SIGSTOP. Attempts to do so are silently ignored.
this one makes sense if you understand the reasoning behind it, but i have seen many questions on this in the past. definitely a topic worth discussing
>Each of the threads in a process has its own signal mask.
this is useful because it is powerful, but it is also really annoying in its complexity, lol
i guess honorable mention to the note about undefined behavior, as well

relevant resources:
man man

man syscalls

I really like the fact that you have two signals for termination, where one suggests and the other enforces. I think it's good api design to have an entity with authority/control over another to be able to choose to tell it to stop itself, or to stop the thing itself.
I don't like the fact that you have dozens of different signals all doing basically the same thing making it nigh impossible to handle comprehensively, but whatever.

Useful archiving efforts and other projects to help out with for people new to and interested in archiving:

HIGH priority (If you don't help archive these automatically, the data will probably be lost forever):

1. http://warrior.archiveteam.org/
Help out automatically archive things being shut down right now by running ArchiveTeam Warrior program (or specific containers) in the background
Requirements: Few GB of space, some bandwidth and small amount of CPU power, more info: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/ArchiveTeam_Warrior

If you learn that a site or any online data is in danger of shutting down, read through this page and contact ArchiveTeam on their IRC if required in order to have it archived: https://wiki.archiveteam.org/index.php/Projects

2. Help out automatically forward URLs you browse that are not archived on https://archive.org to them for archival with a browser extension
https://github.com/internetarchive/wayback-machine-webextension
>>
MEDIUM priority (Important overall)

3. Seed torrents for as long as possible, rare data forever. Make sure to look up a guide for your router to PORT FORWARD your torrent client port, to substantially increase your upload (and your download) speed. In low population torrent swarms, if no one is port forwarded then you might not be able to connect to each other at all and exchange any data despite having it.
Requirements: As much or as little bandwitdh you want (you can set the limits if you need to)
https://github.com/qbittorrent/qBittorrent (Recommended client, especially to replace uTorrent)

4. Archive web pages you want to have a local copy of with a "Web Extension for saving a faithful copy of a complete web page in a single HTML file with a single click"
https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile

5. Archive videos with "GUI front-end for youtube-dl, yt-dlp and other compatible video downloaders"
https://github.com/axcore/tartube

6. "Capture or record any area of your screen and share it with a single press of a key"
https://github.com/ShareX/ShareX


Comment too long. Click here to view the full text.
>>
8. Publish the data that you have archived that isn't easily or at all available online. You can easily create torrents yourself in your torrent client and then share the magnet link to it anywhere online for anyone to access and, as long as DHT (Distributed Hash Table, decentralized way to share torrents without the need for any specific tracker) is enabled in settings (on by default), your files will be searchable on DHT by DHT crawlers, local or online (for example https://btdig.com/, where you can actually also search for FILE NAMES within all DHT torrents)
(archive.org also creates torrents for all uploads automatically but their torrents shouldn't be relied on because of an error-prone implementation and since they can also break when more files are uploaded or if the item's metadata changes, which includes even getting a new comment on the item)


OTHER useful things:

- In your torrent client settings add the best trackers to be automatically added for all of your newly added torrents (helps more easily connect to peers, especially in obscure torrents)
https://github.com/ngosang/trackerslist

- If you have a torrent in your torrent client which is stuck at downloading metadata, you can see if the .torrent file containing the metadata was cached online. Copy the v1 torrent hash of your torrent and replace it in the link below which uses itorrents.net and btcache.me services to check:
https://downloadtorrentfile.com/hash/c8295ce630f2064f08440db1534e4992cfe4862a

- Look into running a node for I2P (anonymous private network within the global internet)
Requirements: Mostly bandwidth, more info: https://geti2p.net/en/faq

Recently, senior executives at Salesforce have admitted, both internally and publicly, that they massively overestimated AI’s capabilities. They have found that AI simply can’t cope with the complex nature of customer service and totally fails at nuanced issues, escalations, and long-tail customer problems. They even say that it has caused a marked decline in service quality and far more complaints.

But the problems go far deeper than that.

Both employees and executives have said that the company is wasting countless resources on firefighting to stabilise operations since the mass AI layoff. Employees have to spend so much time stepping in to correct the wildly wrong AI-generated responses that AI is wasting more time than it saves. In other words, this AI reduces productivity, not increases it.

But there is also a huge problem here with expertise and skill debt. On top of the firefighting to correct the AI, executives have also highlighted how they are also having to firefight to stabilise their systems from problems that were previously easily solved by staff who had the required experience and skill. However, these staff were fired in the AI layoffs.

Expertise, experience and skilled employees are really hard for a company to acquire. You see, much of the expertise, experience, and skills required are unique to the company and its operations. These operations will have quirks, common problems, and unique issues that even the most experienced outsider will really struggle with, but are effortless to someone with experience within the company. As such, these attributes are not only vital, but are nurtured and grown within a company, and cannot be hired in on a whim. What Salesforce has done is chuck all this experience out the window, and now they are suffering.

oh ok then i guess we will lean hard into your theory, becuase you are correct.

Yep, there's no money being made. That's right we are actually losing money! This is why the entire industry is shoving AI into everything because no money gets made and no profits exist. All these big names, NVIDIA, Microsoft, Meta, Google, all of them are actually hoping to light their money on fire because there is no money to be made. There are no services to sell. The entire thing will crash, yup! Because this one anon doesn't believe it! You heard it here first!

Obviously not. Using Tor is probably more legal protection, than real anonymity. Your traffic on Tor is legally encrypted, so they can't use the evidence in court, without revealing how much the network glows. Not to mention, Tor is horrible for privacy, but great for anonymity. It's very easy to spot Tor connections

I wouldn't call them cheapskates but if they're avoiding buying a whole new something then it's likely they don't have much money to burn
repairing electeonics -- even small ones -- isn't a terribly skilled job despite what people would like you to believe. most of the time you're just bodging traces and replacing caps. someone dedicated to being cheap can buy an electronics kit project, a cheap soldering iron and go to town very quickly. The only real difficulty is smd components but even those can be done by anyone willing to be patient with some kapton tape and a heat gun.
