>The OS itself does not verify your age, it just stores it. You can put in any arbitrary age value whatsoever. Applications/sites can then just read that value and go yes/no based on it. Much better than every website on the planet requiring ID checks.
A concern is that adults will have to give up their driver's license in order to buy or use a computer/OS. Then the OS or seller of the device will record that private information in a remote central database. It's like a gun registry, but for owning computers. The "Parents Decide Act" in the US is anti-privacy, as I've heard it wants to do such "age verification" by getting your government ID / driver's license.

That is the stupidest article I have read all week. An entire article based on theories, hypotheses, guesses and raw propaganda from China. Simply put: they do not, as usual, have a clue.
China pushes conspiracy stuff to make people forget their own spy adventures, like the one in Africa, and that Huawei copied Cisco wholesale, which means China would have known of US backdoors. And it still doesn't explain how Israel was able to follow all the traffic cameras in Teheran, that feed must have exceeded 1 MB/s.
And disconnected from Internet? How come then that the traffic overlay in Google Maps still show updated traffic status?

There is a reason I quickly stopped reading that rag and I see things sure have not improved.

Everything is backdoored by now. Either by the NSA, Mossad in Israel, or MSS in China. It all goes back to the Edomites with their HQ in Israel. I have seen news videos where the FBI doesn't use backdoors to track people down so apparently it is only for the highest levels of government to catch APTs who are a true threat to EOG(Edomite Occupied Government.) But you never knew when the feds are going to use the backdoors they could use it on you and you wouldn't know it. Then they can build a case against you for court. or just eliminate you.

Reticulum

It's a network stack that's used to form hardware-agnostic mesh networks across LANs and WANs. In order to work, it doesn't require:
- Internet
- ISPs
- routers
- TCP/IP

It does require encryption for all messages. It may require IPv6, a newer version of Android for Sideband to work (in Android), and Neighbor Discovery enabled in the router or maybe a virtual access point setup. Use it with wide-range radio communication hardware. Some links:

Today was maybe the first time I got slightly angry at GPT-5 mini at https://duck.ai/ . I asked it to help decode /tmp/megabasterd_folder_cache_uz410RTR.json created by https://github.com/tonikelope/megabasterd/tree/master - MegaBasterd is a thing to download mega.nz folders. The JSON looks like this:
>"f": [
>{
>"h": "Xq5BjCYC",
>"p": "2zJyTRhR",
>"u": "Bdp9fNK6Y_c",
>"t": 1,

>"k": "CjpRkByJ:t-7HVelmz[...]yTRhR:VrzH_ry28pJu3XY6TR_Khg",
"ts": 1772003246
>},[...]
f contains many nodes which generally fit that format. Then the JSON ends with:
>"sn": "cStx0PVyIjc",
>"st": "!P&04)b"

Many prompts and answers later, all I got was dogshit confidently incorrent results (Python code which all didn't work). This is a fairly involved process of applying mega.nz's system of decryption keys and so on. (Some of the text seems to be URL-safe Base64.) I want to decode this megabasterd_folder_cache file to get the actual filenames + other metadata; I am sure the models that are better than ChatGPT would also suck at helping me. They would suck somewhat less though.

I'm better off fumbling my way through the source code in GitHub and eventually failing or succeeding.

>Sculpt is a Genode-based general-purpose OS. Our ready-to-use system images allow you to use Genode without the need to compile the system from scratch.
What makes it interesting is that
>The Genode OS Framework is a tool kit for building highly secure special-purpose operating systems. It scales from embedded systems with as little as 4 MB of memory to highly dynamic general-purpose workloads.
>Genode is based on a recursive system structure. Each program runs in a dedicated sandbox and gets granted only those access rights and resources that are needed for its specific purpose. Programs can create and manage sub-sandboxes out of their own resources, thereby forming hierarchies where policies can be applied at each level. The framework provides mechanisms to let programs communicate with each other and trade their resources, but only in strictly-defined manners. Thanks to this rigid regime, the attack surface of security-critical functions can be reduced by orders of magnitude compared to contemporary operating systems.

archive.is kinda sucks! Reason: If you open a link -- such as that https://archive.is/mkDpa -- in Tor Browser then it forces you to solve a self-driving car captcha for FAGMAN. I refuse to solve those image ones where you have to select 8 out of 16 total cells which contain a bicycle (for example).

I downloaded https://archive.is/mkDpa and https://archive.is/6pQt6 via the SingleFile extension ( capture of https://sizeof.cat/post/cyberpunk-faq/ and https://sizeof.cat/post/cyberpunk/ respectively ). <s>Each webpage has a size of 1 MB to 2 MB. This matters for a reason stated below.</s>

Just spent 2.40 USD worth of ETH to get 144 MB of on-chain storage in Arweave. (Confetti was popping off in the webpage when it said "payment confirmed".)

Here's the replacements; for the below links in the bullet points, switch "arweave.net" to "morue.site" or whatever other ar:// gateway if needed):
- OP link archive.is/mkDpa -> https://arweave.net/raw/JLtwNn1lr2szwTO3V-Yp_rhbbPX1iQpD-GjWNO_TyF0
- OP link archive.is/6pQt6 -> https://arweave.net/raw/sZKcdH3NyMC_tMLMVak24ky1FMDMKIfrmLLGiX8Fs28

Whatever those webpages say will live on in that blockchain forever in at least ~100 miners' computers worldwide. Like IPFS gateways, there's a bunch of Arweave gateways. (Some work better than others; https://kt10.store/ mostly sucked and died, https://morue.site/ works well, etc.)

Fuck Archive.org and Wayback Machine; that site is ran by petty hypocritical pathetic trannies! (BTW, website sizeof.cat is excluded in web.archive.org.)

A benefit of the webpage being available at https://[multiple sites]/raw/ID is that once one puts up some stupid fucking Cloudflare / Annubis / Anit-bot / verify-you-are-human wall, then you can just use the website which doesn't do that. (IPFS also supports an open web in this way.)

How do I go about reducing my "online attack surface"? I'm worried about the frequency of breaches and want to delete all the accounts for services I no longer use, or rarely ever use.

Assuming services still keep an up-to-date, last-updated copy that could hypothetically be accessed depending on how hard they were pwned, data poisoning would be in order--change any passwords that had been ignorantly used elsewhere, and changing the associated email with a soon-to-be-deleted throwaway. Any metadata they had collected, a data broker can clean up.

What would I do for accounts for which I've retardedly forgotten the password to, as well as the email? For old, long abandoned social media accounts, I can imagine platforms asking for a photo ID to verify my identity, which I will NOT concede to. I was thinking nuking the account with reports if there's no other option via official channels.

Data breaches aside, I'm also concerned with the way autocorrect could be used to more efficiently deanonymize people, or simply be used to link online identities to someone IRL via facial recognition--hence the desire to nuke any social media. No doubt governments have already used it, but I'm more concerned with the general populous getting access to such toys.

Is there a relatively up to date dump somewhere of deceypted IPAs from the app store? I'm aware of services that offer one offs, but I want them all.

sms verification service for gmail, github and discord?

>>108692961
I dunno if these are outdated or not
>https://rentry.org/good-sites#sms-verification-sites

I think most services are well aware of online sms services where you buy a phone # for cheap, and have countermeasures for them. Verification might go through, but then at some some later point in time, your account gets nuked. Assuming you live in the states, why not just buy a prepaid phones?

Is there a website where you can find info about what websites don't accept or shadowban which email domains when registering an account?

For example, I know that GitHub will restrict accounts created with @passinbox.com domain (the alias service of proton.me), you won't be able to fork repositories. In fact iirc after a while you'll get redirected to a page asking for phone number verification. But if you register with proton.me instead you'll be able to use the platform with complete features.

How hard/easy is it to become a miner? Compared with other currencies:
- Easy: Monero mining.
- Medium: Arweave mining. Need at least 8 to 16 GB of RAM, terabytes of free storage space (may need to be on SSDs), may need a specific version of Ubuntu, need to mess with numeric limit of file descriptors, otherwise not so easy to get going. Need a medium-to-high-powered computer. Port forwarding in the router is NOT required.
- Hard: Filecoin mining (related to IPFS). Need at least 256 GB of RAM. Need at least 10 to 100 TB of free storage space. Need two high-powered computer working together, probably not just one doing everything. Port forwarding in the router is required.

>>108692551
>They can be quite expensive and kill the water
AI probably guzzles way more water than blockchains used in cryptocurrencies. Consider whether or not data center conditions (multiple high-powered computers) are required to mine the blockchain in question. Unlike Filecoin, you don't need to have your own fuckin' data center to mine Arweave.

>3.2.6 Data Permanence, Not Network Permanence

>All technologies come in cycles[10]. While the Arweave’s mechanism design is generally engineered to promote adaptivity to new circumstances, the core Arweave team does not expect that the network as it is currently formulated will continue to produce blocks in true perpetuity. This does not, however, mean that we expect that the information stored inside the weave will be lost after the final block is mined. It is our expectation that when eventually a permanent information storage system more suited to the challenges of the time emerges, the Arweave’s data will be ‘subsumed’ into this network. After the mining of the final block, the financial incentive mechanisms for data preservation will subside and give way to social incentives for data preservation. This effect will likely be compounded by the exceptionally low cost of storing the data from the network, due to its decreasing relative cost over time.

Overview:
>Based on the hit series created by Academy Award® winner James Cameron and Charles H. Eglee. Dark Angel is the story of Max, a genetically enhanced soldier, who cunningly fights to reclaim her manipulated past and avoid capture through the underground landscape of post-apocalyptic Seattle. Her streetwise instincts and fearless hand-to-hand combat skills are crucial to her survival. Trusted cyber-journalist Logan Cele aids Max's quest to defeat -|- Corp, the secret organization that rose out of the ashes of Manticore, her military creator, and discover the truth of her past.

Cyberpunk moment in "House of Cards": some nerdy guy gained power due to his technological skills. A politician got someone to kill him so he couldn't get blackmailed or revealed by him (forgot the details of the story). The part that was interesting to me was how after he died an automated message went out to person(s) which said "If you're hearing this, I'm already dead. [Other part of his message.]" Getting killed by elites = in his threat model, so he prepared. How would you set up such a message?

First part: making some software/hardware detect if you're alive or not. If you often wear a heartbeat monitor, it could be easy. Otherwise, you could have some thing monitor if you interact with it on a daily or weekly basis. If you don't interact with it, it sends the message. Second part: sending the message. Could set up a thing to send a message to various IRC channels. There's a CLI-only IRC client, forgot what it's called. Of course, you could send out emails. I know of a file sharing where you can ul files likes this -- "cat f.txt | curl -T - http://forexample.com/upload" -- can be used in combination with other thing(s): may be hard for people to find the resulting link(s).

Maybe the best / most visible way would be to use YouTube's API to upload a video once the death happens. Could you other APIs and stuff to send such automated messages in social media or whatever. (Other consideration: is the message public or private/targeted?)

Perhaps they are making super soldier with gene editing in secret. Reasons to not join the army/military in the US: you might die, you might get cancer or some other problems from DNA editing, you might die fighting in Iran due to Jewish influences over the US (this is a bad fate).

Either torsocks doesn't work IRC client irssi, or one of these servers is blocking Tor connections:

This command worked: "irssi --connect=irc.libera.chat". Then make a cronjob with access to $DISPLAY / X server; make it run a macro to type in and submit "/join #libera" then "[your message here]".

Why use tor? I2P or bust!

I need a piece of spy equipment for my corridor so I can rub one out without the deep state (my wife) catching me in the act. I think the best tool for the job would be a tiny motion sensor with a silent remote alarm, but strangely this seems to be impossible to find. Everything is for some sort of smart home nonsense or at best for sensor lights. Any suggestions?

Motion sensors in rigs like picrel don't have much range. You're better off putting together a laser-photoreceiver rig.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0FTzUhdg3w
Instead of a silent alarm, hook it up to a surround sound audio system and have it play gunshots kek.

Back when I was still in school and regularly tormented by junior glowniggers, I tried wiring these ultrasonic sensors to a rig that would pinch me whenever someone was behind me, like a sort of spider sense. By the time I felt anything, someone's hand was already on my neck.

>Are there any good use cases for faraday bags
They're easy to use. If you put a smartphone in one to three layers of tinfoil it can't send or receive any phone calls. It can't communicate with cell towers. Problem is that it's not convenient to wrap up and unwrap it every time. With a Faraday bag you can easily open and close it, putting a device in or taking it out.

>>108706035
>Do you want Brave New World? Because that's how you get the plot from Brave New World and you won't be in the winning side
I suspect that greed with eventually win out. Maybe not today, maybe not in you country, but some place and time will do it, normalizing it for the rest of the world. Eventually corpos will use AI for slave labor. Eventually people will cave on gene editing in order to save money.

Parents are very stupid. They let their toddlers and babies have access to an iPad, with stuff like YouTube on autoplay playing. Part of the justification for recent age verification / anti-privacy laws is that parents are stupid so the government has to make laws to prevent idiot children from accessing stuff. Parents were too stupid to properly raise their kids, not letting them have a computer until they're 8 or something, not putting access controls on their stuff if they're worried about kids looking at porn.

Stupid parents has a big overlap with poor parents, and they may choose to do gene editing if they could.

This is a bit of a ramble; the first part seems truer than the last part.

Is there some registry of open/non-private/non-I2P torrents which are watched by copyright trolls? It'd be cool to see a table with these columns (plus rows of contents):

Infohash ; Torrent name ; Record of DMCA email [telling you to stop downloading/sharing this] ; Notes [such as the name of the media if &dn= something simple like just "Season 1"]

Don't know if such a website exists. A similar site is https://www.suedbynintendo.com/ "Sued by Nintendo" which shows all the stuff that Nintendo tried to take down (many times succeeding). I know that torrents of American cartoons result in DMCA letters more than torrents of anime. Example: some "South Park" torrent. Here's a new "South Park" torrent (created a month or two ago) which isn't monitored by copyright cunts:

South.Park.S01-S12.NTSC.DVD (204.72 GB)
magnet:?xt=urn:btih:da390463f2e3cabeccf8031f4e321e065516b2b4&dn=South.Park.S01-S12.NTSC.DVD&xl=219822874624&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Ftracker.opentrackr.org%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.demonii.com%3A1337%2Fannounce&tr=udp%3A%2F%2Fopen.stealth.si%3A80%2Fannounce

>>108707163
True fact. That's obvious when you point it (why didn't I think of that?).

Trigonometry fact that's "obvious when pointed out": the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the radius in the unit circle. (With H=1, sine=O/1=O, and cosine=A/1=A. Sine corresponds to one of the non-diagonal lines of the triangle, and cosine corresponds to the other one. Changing the angle basically traces out a circle, or at least 90 degrees of a circle.)

Not really, but just as with Cyberpunk genre, we have in reality arrived at Brave New World. The elite just doesn't want to admit it or share their privileges.

Oh but I will be. Through my day time job I get into contact with various parts of the elite and frankly it is not impressive. There is a lot of greed, envy and demand for immediate gratification. The reason many are part of the elite is that they were born into it or have other forms of connection. There is little real meritocracy to be seen but they sure insist there is.

They'll use robots which use AI. Since they aren't human, they'll be used as slave labor since chattel slavery is illegal.

Usually it does. Greed and fear are the two main drivers in finance. And while the elite will want the benefits for themselves, they will realise there is a major cost in not releasing the health benefits to the rest of the people. Noticed how the directors of Big Pharma never seem to live past 100?
>Eventually corpos will use AI for slave labor.
The progress in humanoid robots is impressive. It will be commonplace in 10 years, the question is if people will be employed and can afford AI robots.

Some countries quicker than others. China will be early, conservative religious countries will not.
>Parents are very stupid. They let their toddlers and babies have access to an iPad, with stuff like YouTube on autoplay playing.
There is a huge span from the most brainless short sighted parnts to those who will do anything to secure their children's future. Also, whildren might soon grow up with robots as close friends.
>Stupid parents has a big overlap with poor parents, and they may choose to do gene editing if they could.
Imagine a future where everyone has an IQ of at least 105 at today's scale, without craving for immediate gratification, excellent health and 200 year lifespan. It will be a very different world from ours. This might be an exit from /cyb/ dystopia and into Solarpunk.

Unexpected thing which seemed to happen: Normally, files which individually have a size of <100 KB are free to upload thanks to Turbo. However, if you have Turbo Credits (cost ETH), then all of said smaller-than-100,000-B uploads via ArDrive secretly drain your Credits. Ended up uploading like 3 >100-KB-<3-MB files, then the remaining ~139 MB was used up due to uploading many smaller-than-100-KB files. Spent another 4.56 USD worth of Ethereum for two hundred something megabytes. Way to do it: upload larger-than-100-kilobyte files first then the smaller files later.

The big question is, is it worth spending time studying /cyb/ or will AI do the job?

While it is claimed that
>The data, which offers crucial insights into how genetics and lifestyle affect people’s health as they age, was de-identified, it said in an open message to volunteer participants. All personally identifying information remained “safe and secure”, it added.
the reality is of course different, and in the comments field it is pointed out that
>The claim that "there's no personal data, so everything is okay" is completely bogus. It is widely known in the data science community that re-identification is easy given a modestly rich dataset. The Guardian has already re-identified people in the leaked data.
>Moreover, as Luc Rocher reports, Biobank mysteriously stopped issuing takedown notices for for a two month period while the Guardian was running its investigation, then commenced them again as soon as the investigation was published. Without a clear explanation for the abrupt pause in takedowns, it looks suspiciously like an attempted cover-up.

You covered this one already. A noble goal, to be sure, but it isn't by far the first thing i do when I attain root

>sideloading
I'll start with the big guns here. Google gonna make it so you can't run apps such as NewPipe, F-Droid and Zapret without root. This will happen this year. Some workarounds for nonroot will remain, but they too will be patched.

>spoofing
Whether spoofing to allow GApps to run smoothly, or spoofing network traffic, you need root, or at least you need to reconfigure network permissions with root

>firewall
You need root to customize it

>customization
You need root to customize your system

There are other uses for root, but they're classified and i can't divulge them to retards in this shithole.

Just a reminder, you need sudo on Android to run something as trivial as

ip link show

>debloating
done by custom ROMs
>sideloading

>ok fair, but graphene does have things like a mac randomizer
>firewall
lots of non-root apps that are able to block connections to other apps, like DNS/adblocking apps. graphene has it built in.

>customization
ok fair because root allows more gimmicky customization, but I wouldn't sacrifice security for it.

this is a flaw with android itself that doing anything remotely complex not for retards requires root, and that root is "always on" unlike on linux that turns off when you close the window where you're root.

being fucked by google without root vs being exposed to system-wide attacks by attackers with root is a false dichotomy, and it is so because smartphone OSes are locked down toys.

>>108721534
>no rebuttal to the spoof part
If i wanted to make it secure, i could always give my nethunt apps the required network permissions using one instance of ADB shell with root. But still, there are really cool Magisk Modules available, except you inadvertently called them all shit. I'm using and enjoying a few right now. Did you know you can run Zapret as a Magisk module?

>Magisk is shit rewritten in tranny rust and the original team is gone
The modules also work on other root managers such as kernelSU. The modules have nothing to do with Magisk.

>Zapret is shit to run via Magisk module because you should be customizing the commands
I can't argue too much, but there is no more convenient way to do it. I just wish there was a way to customize it. I wonder if Zapret run from Termux with root privs would have the same result?

>I'm sacrificing security
To gain offense/spoof powers, in addition to new defensive tricks. I still only run verified code

I'm pretty sure that starting very soon, if you want apps from both Play Store and from anywhere besides Play Store eg F-Droid /Linux, the only way will be through root access on a verified Android device.

I can't think of great solutions that work in many situations and hostile conditions, with no failures or false positives. Situations to consider:
- Connections lost
- Devices destroyed
- Kidnapped or held hostage for days

If you have an implanted cardiac devices, or a pacemaker, some can simply monitor your heart beat. These devices can last for 5 to 15 years; you must have a surgery to get one. You could make the device send messages to various things, using cell towers, Internet APs, and maybe also mesh networks. About the only case where a false positive would happen is if they tortured you to learn your secrets then put you in a Faraday cage. Lulz.

One such that’s come our way from a variety of sources over the last week features Ursa Ag, a small machinery manufacturer based in Alberta, Canada. The reason they’re in the news is because they have gained bulging order books by taking on the likes of John Deere with a tractor more like the one their customers’ parents bought back in the ’80s or ’90s. It’s a basic machine without much in the way of electronics, and certainly without all the DRM lockdown that has made those big manufacturers so unpopular.

The admin is a nonce, and likely a glownigger asset. Administration has (allegedly) been shown to keep logs of all posts made via their proxy, which they (allegedly) actively read from. From what I've read, they're deleted after a set period of time now (allegedly), but only after they got pwned.

I say "allegedly", because it's all based on threads discussing the service back when 4chan was regularly getting raped by spam enabled by it and PNG embedding; firsthand accounts from people who've actually used it and its meta board(s), as well as from off-site threads dedicated to the admin.

4chan keeps logs too obviously, and glows just as bright.

From what I've read, there's some weird rivalry between proxy services.

Linux is kind of dumb because tmpfs (and maybe also ext4) doesn't do anything special with sparse files. The sparse files I'm talking about are those that consist of only binary zeros. You can fill up a tmpfs partition with "cat /dev/zero > file"; eventually it will say "no free space available". I think you can't fill up a ZFS mount like that.

Agency might not be needed but there will probably be a purpose programmed in. In most Western countries, the law states that everyone has a right to an education adapted to their situation. In reality that is rarely true, especially if you are doing above average. Robots might be a way forward though the AI will have to be a LOT better than what we see today.
Questionable: the robots will also double as sex bots after age of consent.
Also, in the future humans might not be allowed to drive, the nanny state will probably see to that. Robots could then be your driver and also microcopter pilot.

One has existed since June 2025 (pic related). However, I think few care about it, use it, or know about it. (Also it's not hosted on that powerful of a computer.)

How "IPFS web archive" works:
- source code of file "/lib/cgi-bin/memweb": https://vilenarios.com/raw/1EvibASbx_dS_PsaJaBok9muKhxeXdde9PupX54IMYs
- WARC-based!
- only works on wget-positive websites that don't use anti-bot shit to prevent GNU Wget from downloading a useful copy of the web page or web file
- currently buggy in an insignificant way
- currently uses single capture per webpage, so no /memento/2025.../, /memento/202601.../, /memento/202602.../, etc.
- can use a database-like lookup with IPFS: text file of each URL is saved to MFS at /url/$cid - URL can be translated back and forth between the actual URL text and a CID of that text
- unlike web.archive.org and archive.is, doesn't use a browser to capture pages; I think megalodon.jp also uses a browser for captures
- doesn't use SingleFile extension or the CLI version of that
- no redundancy unless ipfs daemon in some remote computer is running (it usually isn't): users are expected to also save the capture of the URL to their own IPFS repo
- "Capture of that URL" part only works with plain URLs (example.com/a/b/c/), not URLs containing crap like "?", "&", etc. A question mark in the URL is the worst; about everything else is workable.

Index/creation of captures:
https://archive.is/E91gB
https://archive.is/pylsl
https://archive.is/hQvU5

The actual webpage captures:

Forgot to say: there's also .../cgi-bin/findurl (/findurl?url=[URL]) to see if a URL was already captured or not. So you can return to your captures or check stuff. Source code of that "findurl" file in CGI:
https://ar.randao.net/raw/Pdn8-Cj3-CEIcW9TMmIN1L3vJH1WPl2kCgPPwNZ9MHo

To run it yourself, you need to:
- install IPFS, Apache, and maybe one or more other things
- adapt it to your own variables in file .../cgi-bin/memweb
- run "ipfs files mkdir /findurl"
- make folders "/srv/http/warc/memento" and "/srv/http/warc/warc" in Apache web root folder

>>Yeah archives seem to be heavy shit so quite expensive
>I have 100 Mbit/s up- and download speed. Seems I might get a fair start with 1 PB disk storage.

Run it at an onionsite, or for normie adoption, run it at a clearweb site. If you think it's "crappy code", feel free to improve it.

The code isn't complex. You can look at it and tell that "it's secure".

Current server it's running on is slow as of today, but it still works. Capture created a few minutes ago by using it:
- https://archive.is/1DIeN
- Can't post the link to the .onion because this site is dumb.
- Can't post the CID here because this site is dumb.
- Can't easily use /ipns/ipfs3.eth/memento/... because eth.limo is dumb.

I have another thing which use ipwb for WARC replay if needed + SingleFile + IPFS; see the text lines at the bottom of this:
https://ariospeedwagon.com/raw/skSP8D7AUoJPAfZje0yxdh2KMsIMTLsBi5Neshcc9cw

This is especially good for:
- Getting pages with anti-bot/anti-scraping/anti-archiving bullshit
- Archival fixity: similar to what archive.today does
- Dereferencing the host-based address: it's a single complete HTML file, and you can use a link to just the file (such as at /ipfs/bafk... for HTMLs which are smaller than 1 MB) with no reference to the folders it's in. Every SingleFile-extension-created .html contains the URL the webpage is from plus the second it was downloaded (as text in the .html)
- Getting around exclusions from the web data capture sites that everyone knows about (archive.today and others)

Not good for downloading lots of pages. Part of this has to be done manually as it currently is.

>From here it looks just like the normal archive.(is/ph/today) on clearnet.
Those are captures of the server used to create those web captures. In order for someone to request that a URL or web page be captured, there needs to be a server to process that request. In this case it's a .onion site running Apache which will create a web capture and make it accessible on IPFS.

>There are some onion links but those I thought lead to Tor nodes.
They're not just links which work in one single host/website. The IPFS links work in any IPFS gateway, so you can see the web capture at
- a remote gateway: http://ec2-54-147-221-165.compute-1.amazonaws.com:8080/ipfs/[CID HERE]/...
- your local gateway: http://127.0.0.1:8080/ipfs/[CID HERE]/...
- etc.

archive.today isn't required at all for this (pic related). All that's needed for this to work is at least one IPFS node online with the web captures. Hopefully it gets saved on many of such nodes for better continuity. As part of decentralization, the focus isn't on making a public master index of all the captures. Instead, you can 1. make a web capture 2. save the CID to your local repo or text file 3. view the capture 4. check if a capture was made with the findurl thing 5. run this web archiving software yourself.

In the past, I did make a blockchain-like thing with IPFS where each section of the chain linked to the previous section of the chain. So each CID would be linked like this: "Genesis block" <- Chain link 1 <- Chain link 2 <- Chain link 3 <- etc. That functionality could be added to this IPFS web archive thing, but I feel like it would be sorta pointless as not many people care about or use this.

In the process learned that many Linux liveboots have passwordless sudo access. Even if you log in to root and change the passwd of root, you can still switch back and forth between normal user and root without needing to enter a password. Only way to disable it is to do one or two things, such as: remove "NOPASSWD: " from file "/etc/sudoers.d/casper".

I bet there's computers in the world right now running Linux liveboots for important stuff and they didn't change root's shell to /usr/bin/nologin. If someone remotely gains access, then they'd also have root access. That could wreak some serious havoc.

>It appears to persist across everything except a reboot.
Maybe if I restart the shell program -- restart /bin/bash -- it would remove that exploit. A bit worried about doing that.

I ran that exploit in said Arch Linux computer yesterday. And now today I found that that computer was powered off. That copy.fail exploit and/or my router restart may have made that computer turn off. At least the exploit is gone now (probably).

>>108748599
For many systems (those not running a newer Kernel), changing the root's shell to /usr/bin/nologin is pointless now that this exploit exists.

>>108748767
Way to fix it without requiring a reboot? For example: if you're running a liveboot.

It kind of helps that I completed my PhD some time ago.
As for my time, I spend it reading news, learning new things, spending a bit of time here and more. I just got some /ham/ gear and already have the license, so I am setting up a proper shack. I am also getting into FPGA stuff, parts of that is also for /ham/ work. In particular I am interested in transmissions below the noise floor.

In hindsight it looks cool but behind the scenes it was a nightmare. I got the PhD but then my field imploded, imploding any hope of a career in that field. I also got in during teh tail end of some industries before it was all outsourced to China. On LinkedIn it looks like to just got another job, in reality there were transitions into entirely new fields and lots of worries. I learned it is incredible what we can survive, unfortunately I learned it the hard way.

>>108754098
You can tell a lot by the shape and size on an antenna, plenty of intelligence in close observation. And if you want truly massive, nothing beats the Wullenweber, aka elephant cage, pic. related. That little shack in the center is a two storey building with the goniomenters.

It's best to register your own domain and allow free email registration, because it keeps the domain free from blocks while obscuring your identity.

Alternatively you can just host a bunch of domains and cycle through them yearly. Currently godaddy is selling lol domains for $2, so I snag a handful and let them expire in a year. There is a paper trail to you, but it changes frequently, and I host them all on fastmail with wildcard catchalls to allow aliases for each service. Fastmail is only $6/month.

>AI slop, the movie
That's the first feature-length AI-generated movie that I've ever watched. I thought it was OK. Some of my thoughts on it:
- I laughed out loud at the part where some guy fell out of the plane
- Tommy Lee Jones making jokes at the bar was also funny
- I'd also be interested in a version without ads
- Mentions Endchan (a site now excluded from web.archive.org); I have some positive experiences with that imageboard.

Do you enjoy math or do you think its not necessary to be a good hacker?

How do you get Windows working with your own custom secure boot keys? Arch wiki says "add the hash of bootmgfw.efi to the list of allowed hashes in the db variable". How do you do that and get the hash of the .efi?

What are the most cyberpunk things you do?

I'm not a hackerman and I'm rightly going to get called a retard, but there was a supply chain infection just discovered in Daemon Tools Lite (remember it?) and I recently had to install that program.
https://arstechnica.com/security/2026/05/widely-used-daemon-tools-disk-app-backdoored-in-monthlong-supply-chain-attack/
Windows has been able to mount .iso files for a long time, so it's been years since I last had that program installed, but I recently had to mount an .mdf/.mds file and I needed an external program to do that since it's not natively supported.
So the native Windows AV detected it as a backdoor just now, I already uninstalled the software, deleted any garbage files left behind after uninstall, and ran a full system scan which showed no threats.
Am I good now? Or is there something else I need to do to ensure my system is safe?

Description of that video:
>Or: what you see when you die.\n\nIf you liked this, you may also enjoy two novels that provided inspiration for it: Jim Munroe's Everyone in Silico, where I first found the idea of a corporate-sponsored afterlife; and Rudy Rucker's trippy Postsingular, which introduced me to the horrifying idea of consciousness slums. --https://figmentala.xyz/raw/3tubDOtPZcIpgDi160pzpn2NscEo94Bzi3mnh6ql2Hk

A comment on that video:
>I'm assuming that before \"Welcome to Life\", there was nothing. A priori, something is better than nothing, and certainly three minutes would not be enough for me to decide otherwise. II might go on to work my digital butt off to afford CPU cycles, stage a computer rebellion, or have my consciousness flattened to where I wasn't recognizable as me any more, but giving up and just stopping seems stupid. Even where there's Life, there''s hope. --also from that .info.json.zst file
Reminds me of some sci-fi TV show where Trantor, the capital planet of the Galactic Empire, was converted into a computer. Humans maintained it and some worked as heat sinkers.
