Mate. Everyone is the product. Everyone's attention is being paid for. Every service is collecting your data. Everyone wants your screen time and is happy to pay for it.
"If it's free you are the product" has been drilled into us to accept the bullshit of Facebook, Google and the rest. Get it in your head now: you are the product, always. Unconditionally. No exceptions.
This just doesn't hold up in 2024. BMW charge you 60k for a vehicle and chuck a subscription on top. Apple, Google and Samsung charge between hundreds and thousands for their phones and advertise with their own agencies. Amazon forces paying customers to wade through bullshit products to finally buy the one they want, customers who bought prime and who didn't.
Everyone is the product even if you pay. Stop saying this please.
Run it in your head, find the edge cases yourself, fix the bug... weakling.
Or do what I do in real life which is patch in new bugs and even a security flaw or two.
Nice try Microsoft, I still don't like your monthly "small" ui changes that hide the features I use and add extra "get copilot now" buttons

Idk if we use capitalism so much as we get used...
The Windows network troubleshooter is black magic from the depths of hell itself and is very opinionated and selective in choosing which issues to fix and whether you'll need to bargain your soul to recieve said fix. I have red hair and find it doesn't bother bartering with me, but your mileage may vary.
Not the above poster but Manjaro routinely pushes out broken packages, has had a number of issues with security (not renewing their tls certificates for their website) and is all around not stable. Arch is a predictable unstable, manjaro is an unpredictable unstable attempt at stable.

X11 doesn't limit it, but you will want to enable "Force composition pipeline" to prevent screen tearing. nvidia and Wayland work together btw. It's not a match made in heaven but they do work.
I sent a tarball of downloaded movies linux iso's around once and my family thought I'd been hacked.
My bad, what linux distro you running?
Best advice I ever got regarding Windows: delay updates for a few days. Sometimes Windows updates break the device, but if you're part of the crowd that delays for a day or two, they might have fixed the issue by then.
Cyber security guy here: we care about 22 for SSH, 443 and 80 for Web traffic, 3389 for RDP and 21 for FTP. Everything else we google and we all have to google 21 and 3389 because we all forget them half the time anyway.
Pretty sure it is, might just be their grammar.
I read it as "Godot, or DirectX (which my aim hallucinated is a game engine)"
I work in cyber security. Loads of businesses will do all the cybersecurity stuff using a combination of tools on Azure and security OS's like Kali and Parrot.
Eyyyy, I'm on Mint!
I suppose I was lucky in some ways. I stopped using Reddit a few months ago, after 5 years of addiction, but I was on the way out anyway. I had some bad experiences asking for help, never really posted otherwise and just generally the community made me feel like being inexperienced with anything was the same as being an asshole. I moved to lemmy and I instantly started posting more, answering questions and basically just enjoy talking to people on here. I haven't been back and deleted my account months ago.
I uninstalled my filesystem. I think I was cutting down on packages and used the purge command at the wrong time. Ended up uninstalling nemo with the purge command and removed all packages associated, including the filesystem. Then I was all surprised pikachu when everything stopped working and upon reboot nothing happened
idk, its facing the right way to read the helpful text on the tire.
I recommend this to everyone I meet in tech, it's really good to learn linux and file system skills
This is a great explanation, pretty much what I would have said
It is quite clearly pronounced "gif" as in "I sent a gif of Yoda screaming while having an orgasm"
Youre thinking of python I reckon -link to wikipedia
In the update settings she can reset her apt sources back to "default". It's not too hard and there's a gui throughout the process (from memory).
The package conflicts is an interesting one, if you have the time to post one of these on lemmy I'm sure someone will suggest a fix. It's probably a apt install --fix-broken or something simple (hopefully) but I'm sure we could work it out.
Totally agree that these are annoying issues though. See if you can use Nala, it's a TUI front end for Apt and it's got some nice user changes like if you run upgrade it updates and upgrades. It also has a fetch feature which finds nearby sources, so you're always downloading from the closest/fastest source.
Are you using a package manager or downloading everything from virtualboxs website? When I installed virtual box earlier today it all worked fine so that's why I ask.
Dude in the bottom left looks like Gotye
Only man I've ever seen pick shit from between his toes and eat it while having a philosophical discussion about FOSS.
10/10 agree with the ideology and think he's an amazing programmer 0/10 agree with his culinary recommendations
I think it's a fun (hahaha not) part of the hdmi protocol. I have the same monitor combo and the same issue with the monitors. I find that turning one off fixes it (usually Samsung since my Asus monitor completely shuts down for power saving) but I also remember at least one of my distros not having this issue. Unfortunately it's not Ubuntu which I'm on at the moment so I can't help but either Fedora, Debian or Manjaro didn't have the issue.
I did that last Christmas but the very next day, it gave it away. This year, to keep me from tears I'll deditate it to something special.
The son of the other guy, but same thing I guess lol
Not the shark fucker but could you send me the guide on how to do this? I would love to set this up. Also does it work for multiple accounts?
Fair enough. I used to use Manjaro and it broke, cannot remember why. I moved to ubuntu sometime later and I've never left. Some would say that makes me a bad linux user, I would say I use an operating system that gets out of my way and let's me use it. Use whatever tool gets the job done fastest!
Same thought different reasoning: the expression "a bees dick" exists. There's no equivalent for birds.
Not who you asked, but did you ever hear of Valiant and their kernel level anti cheat.
This is not a 1:1 comparison but anticheat software running in the kernel has the ability to monitor all other processes due to its permission levels. It can monitor all scheduled tasks and infer from that information.
Drivers need similar access but for different reasons, they need access to os functionality a user would absolutely never be granted. This is because they interface directly with hardware and means when drivers crash, they generally don't do it gracefully. Hence the BSOD loop and the need for booting windows without drivers (i.e. safe mode) and the deletion of the misconfiguration file.
So save files exist. Also custom user content. So the hash will change accordingly. Plus some cheats don't require a modification of game files anyway, they use memory analysis to get, say, the location of other player objects, then they manipulate local information to give the player an advantage. This is how aim hacks and wall hacks work.
Cheats are hard to prevent for the sole reason of you don't own the computer they could be running on. You can't trust the user or the machine, and have to design accordingly. This leads many to the "solution" that is kernel level anticheat, it gives total access to the system.
I dont see myself doing too much configuration with connectors to begin with which brings some of the difficulty down. I was asking to see if others run anything similar in their home configuration. I've met people who run MISP from home before so it sounded feasible to me.
I was also looking for the community aspect of this, I already knew they had a docker-compose config. I wanted to know who had attempted this before and what they'd learned, that sort of thing.
Really don't care much about my cv. This program is a great way to learn about the STIX protocol so no idea what you mean about "no actionable skills". STIX is an interesting information sharing method, the program is well designed to educate the user on it and seeing the format it imports and exports data will teach me a buttload.
More to the point, maybe could you be less cynical and share some advice. I'm not going to flex my qualifications cos they're mediocre but I've got smart people around me who just don't know this particular program and I'm interested to hear from those who do.
Do you run this program at work or at home? Have you learned anything interesting from using it? Are there avoidable mistakes I could not repeat from hosting it? Answers to those questions would be very useful.
So I did miss that Linus is in the article, but the reference to him says he was awarded the title, which makes it sound like an honour rather than a hierarchical system. I don't believe that he's ever been anything other than the projects owner/founder but I'm happy to learn if I'm wrong.
Hey mate, so this comment is just not productive. I'm going to be a little hyperbolic here: if everyone alive is being advertised to then your "unrelated ways companies making suckers out of their customers" comment isn't correct or honest. It's the norm, everyones going through it is totally related.
I talked about companies that lock you into their ecosystems and force you to have a stake in their business model. They do this for two reasons: you make money and they want it, and if you spend your money elsewhere they don't get it. Name one phone manufacturer that isn't stealing your data. Name one social media app that isn't spyware. Name one online store, review site or fucking cooking blog that isn't loaded with ad trackers and cursor monitoring shit that tells you to subscribe as soon as you go to close the tab.
Sure some smaller examples exist (I love lemmy, this place is awesome), sure I can download a free open source os, or just install an:
Adblocker User agent spoofer Anti track-sender Set my browser to stop allowing targeted ads or download a privacy browser
but everyone is still stuck using the other products in some capacity just the same. I'm happy for you if you fall outside this, seriously. However, most people do not. We are stuck and it's because we got prayed upon. So yeah, everyone is the product. Always. No exceptions.
