Welcome to /tech/ THE RULES: 1. Please spoiler all porn and gore 2. Talk about something actually related to /tech/nology 3. Have fun! Required reading http://cryptome.org/2012/07/gent-forum-spies.htm Beginner Info If you would like to try out GNU/Linux because of https://itvision.altervista.org/why-windows-10-sucks.html, you can do one of the following: 0) Install a GNU/Linux distribution of your choice in a Virtual Machine (preferably using KVM or Oracle VirtualBox for newfriends). 1) Use a live image and to boot directly into the GNU/Linux distribution without installing anything (keep in mind that the performance of live distros might be very different than from distro that was booted from your HDD, as most distros are loaded in RAM and don't include the proprietary drivers for NVIDIA GPUs or up-to-date Mesa libraries in their isos). 2) Dual boot the GNU/Linux distribution of your choice along with Windows (make sure to install Windows first, as it can "replace" GRUB or other UNIX bootloaders, and troubleshooting of Windows replacing your bootloader of choice might be painful for people that just started learning about the Linux kernel) 3) Go balls deep and replace everything with GNU/Linux (you really shouldn't do this, if you don't know what you're putting yourself into, see: https://itvision.altervista.org/why.linux.is.not.ready.for.the.desktop.current.html).

The fact you cannot post on 4chan literally by any other means than a regular IP address is proof Anonymous 10/05/2024 (Sat) 13:42:15 No.3604 [Reply]
It's a motherfucking honeypot. I even was able to post briefly on my nameless vpn for about a week before it was blocked. Even if I don't get "Your IP has been rangebanned due to abuse" I will either get a 429 or "connection error" after hitting submit for a comment. They know you're attemping to circumvent your regular IP, there is no way to fucking use that site anonymously. Before any faggots come in saying there is without saying how go fuck yourself deep in your asshole.

I'm also dumping a list of darknet chans. Since small chans come and go, nomad anons must keep a chans.txt fresh so we never become lost. Reply if you know other chans. Since Tor users can't post files, I made a tiny I2P torrent with the text file. An opportunity for you to try: 9bd4e1ec015ec5632c84f6e168bd046d4a2ec7a3

>>3215 >If I want to host a website to give to normies The easiest way to avoid cancer is to just avoid the normies, so this point seems moot
>>3614 Also this. If there were a way to have a zero-knowledge proof that someone is node it would be even better, so that you'd be able to select for who can go and who can't. I also wouldn't be surprised if somebody had already thought of this.

Based if you're a schizo running a darknet drug market. For everyone else Mac is fine.
>>3431 this >>3578 also this
fucking trash like every other linux OS
>>3377 Awesome system, huge resource hog, definitely worth it though. I do recommend automating stuff though, the Qubes team has provided a lot of neat cli scripts to put in your workflow. (eg; dmenu with qvm-ls to list qubes). 8/10

FOSS SJW Blacklist Anonymous 09/22/2019 (Sun) 07:25:12 No.219 [Reply] [Last]
The recent shitstorm about Stallman revealed more bad actors within the Linux/FOSS community and as developers and users we should fight to regain the civilization we built with our blood and tears from the encroachment of destructive "cancel culture" madmen.

We need to start by making of list of organizations and projects that are thoroughly infested with the rot. Avoid contributing effort and support to them and eventually they will crumble inwards as internecine group politics is no replacement for hard technical knowhow.

I'll start by listing a few:

Red Hat/IBM (Fedora, Centos)
Debian
Ubuntu
GNOME
PulseAudio (Red Hat/IBM)
SystemD (Red Hat/IBM)
LibreOffice
Mozilla

Avoid Rust if possible. The entire project suffers from SJW/CoC bullshit and it has been mostly, if not completely subverted by large corporations (Amazon) just like Linux.

It's cliche to say, but follow the money and you'll see what's pushing for this.
RMS is a rarted leftist commie. even worse, he made emacs.
Is there any legitimacy to this claim that OpenMandriva's President is stating they are anti-DIE, or is it simply more posturing? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y1AWos_zm6o I can't find anything explicitly stating this on their site: https://www.openmandriva.org/ cf. the likes of AntiX, which is blatantly clear about the fact they are swalloping all the pozz.

jmp has a relay to wider phone protocol, meaning the possibility of xmpp taking over is real. I think it's one of the most interesting services to date.
>>3594 >tor is a honeypot. Simply not true. But you have to understand the nature of the protocol, recognize the communities -- both good & evil -- surrounding it's use, and plan accordingly. For the sweet spot of it's proper use, it simply can't be beat.
>>3600 I agree but remember if your ip ever gets linked back to something you didn't do and the feds find you got tor its basically an excuse to wreck your house and take your shit. This is why good opsec is a must.
>>3600 Tor is 100% a honeypot fucking faggot
>>3626 >baseless claim with no elaboration Wow, we're all so much safer now.

Proton mail is dead, like this site. Oops, something went wrong There was a problem connecting to Proton.Please or check your connection. Error: No network connection
this site sucks
literally no reason to use an encrypted email service unless your end user is also using that service, even then protonmail can still read your messages and has cooperated with law enforcement. If you want true privacy you need to be anonymous. Use a burner email on a vpn or tor, use pgp in that even if you're trying to go super crazy.

are there still any traditional forums with activity that don't suck, or is the old web dead?

mailing lists still kicking
Recently I noticed slashdot was still around. But they have taken away the ability to create new accounts. So it is just a one way advertising platform that doesn’t want your input. Maybe the people still posting there are mostly robots.
Any ones that are still left are very insular and run by turboautist like the webring. They are sadly a closed system with little way to make newer users.
gemini://midnight.pub is alright. In general, though, you're going to have to be O.K. with slow activity.
>>3451 I used to be on a shitload of mailing lists. Over the past ten years every last one of them shut down. Some of them moved to Faceberg or Twatter, some of them just... never sent me anything else again. I am not making an account so that I can get tracked every time I want to read an article about powder metallurgy, or a waifu sex story, or whatever I'm in the mood for that day.
