Threadly reminder to go read Fisheye Placebo for more cyberpunk goodness!>Vance just wanted to make the most out of his college experience under a totalitarian regime, and if that meant hacking into the university to assign himself a hot female roommate, then so be it. The last thing he expected was to be dragged into a crazy conspiracy to overthrow the government by his most-definitely-not-female roommate.ArchiveChapter 1 Part 1https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/138433030/Chapter 4 Part 7 (latest)https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/145447092/https://www.yuumeiart.com/fisheye-placebo-chapters

>>108657955yes
>>108657955This sounds sus. I bet there are pinholes in their firewalls that allow enough traffic in that the NSA/CyberCom can get access. Most software is buggy enough, but there are likely firmware backdoors as well.
is the claude mythos thing gonna be super hype or will it suck
>>108652365>>The fact that the EU and the US have pushed/made these laws is disgusting.>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.>>108651898 (previous thread)In the previous thread, I posted some crappy code to fix for a stupid thing which had no alternative; I used the API of the ENS Data website. I've updated it to fix for this bug:>failed to resolve /ipns/ohlife.eth/: could not choose a decoder: no decoder registered for multicodec code 114 (0x72)>https://discuss.ipfs.tech/t/i-cannot-access-file-using-ipns-hash/12963>You need to use /ipns instead of /ipfs since you’re pulling IPNS dataHere's revision 2 of Python code for /lib/cgi-bin/dns-query :https://bettersafethansorry.ddns.wtf/raw/MkhhMNYkEv5I84rHly3CXax4hbvWOIfAwRRHZ4LzVsY(eth.limo may have censored that .eth site because it has large files, so they wanted a way to block it in order to not store relatively large files.)

>>108657955>Is everything backdoored?Probably>https://www.theregister.com/2026/04/21/iran_claims_us_used_backdoors/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.
>>108663977So The Register is not a trustworthy source of tech news?
>>108664174It is neither trustworthy nor is it news. It is radioactive drivel pumped out on an industrial scale by clueless dudelets desperately attempting to sound cool. The world would be better off without the REg.

>>108657955Everything 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.

What software/hardware would be good to use at my cabin with no Internet? It will have two desktops, four thin clients, a nas and a router. One thin client will run home assistant and the desktops have Ubuntu and windows.

>>108675651ReticulumIt'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/IPIt 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:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTnYVh7K6xQhttps://reticulum.network/https://github.com/markqvist/Reticulumhttps://github.com/markqvist/Reticulum/blob/master/Zen%20of%20Reticulum.mdI think I first heard about it from that "The Internet, Reinvented" video. Some Reticulum sites/nodes that I know about (in nomadnet):- 253e67911a76125e2c0df30f75adf810:/page/index.mu = "0chan" = "anonymous mesh textboard"- 22dcb397729a3a097a46a82afc27acc7:/page/index.mu = "IPFS gateway"- 12cb1ed29943213839f0b0d18cd42761:/page/index.mu = "SP8KZW BBS Node" = dead?- some other one which said you could access the web -- meaning HTTP(S) -- over Reticulum ("for free")
>>108660183>>108661912Today 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,>"a": "-tdzBrphQs0N5xv3X0BEinnVO-6QX_pl2NpiX28sl88",>"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.
