robin hood tech

hello, hope everyone is well. =)

without going into long stories, i will simply say that i would like to be like robin hood. i have pulled off many amazing accomplishments and rich people fear me as a result, which is not what i had anticipated. i have a lot of friends, mentors, and heroes who are struggling financially and i wish to get money for them. i am not the sort of person who acts like it is bad to want money. there are innumerable ways to help regenerate our world that involve monetary exchanges along the way.

there is an arbitrarily large and increasing money supply that is horded, devaluing the savings of the proletariat. peasants everywhere cannot save in the way they did in inflation-free societies.

does anyone have any ideas how to steal money effectively from places that wouldn't notice the loss? or any evil targets that are incapable of responding aggressively?

is there tech and know-how for this? if i am on my own i will probably just flee to wilderness as i don't have l33t hacker skills. my artistic technological skills are quite good, so maybe i could seduce lonely rich ladies or something if anyone knows where to find them. i have sort of been trying that though and it is not going as hoped.

i am up for stealing cash i suppose but that does seem super nerve-wracking. i am only interested in taking money from corrupt people and those types seem to be paranoid about theft.

i refuse to believe we are being oppressed to the degree where noble theft is implausible. and yet, it does seem surprisingly difficult. i feel nanochan is a great place to brainstorm about this. if one wishes to hire me for a heist i am quite skilled, but would need basic travel funding if it is a physical thing.

suggestions for normalized ways of making quick money also welcome. i am trying to raise a few thousand dollars in a week or so though so the methodology would have to be a sure thing, more or less.

general venting about anything also welcome. i will lament with you and help shoulder the burdens of perspicacity ^_^

Anti-Bloatware Thread

Anti-bloatware threads on other imageboards often result in people saying that anything TUI = gud, but that's clearly untrue; for example, the following I consider bloatware:
>ncurses (supports 30 year old hardware which doesn't exist)
>network managers (hundreds of thousands of lines of code to do something which can be done with a simple script)
>apache (giant blob of modules and extensions)
>emacs (includes everything by default)
>vim (hundreds of thousands of lines of code...)
Discuss ITT the alternatives to these pieces of bloatware. I'm genuinely curious to see what you guys come up with.

Transhumanism General

This is a thread for discussion and critic about transhumanism and singularitarianism, please keep it civil and on topic :)

Discussion about cyberpunk is permitted as long as it's NOT fiction, larping is NOT permitted, make your own thread for that kinf of thing.

Discussion about technological dystopia is permitted but note that we already have a thread here >>>/g/3342 so you should use that.

Transhumanism(abbreviated as H+ or h+) is an international philosophical movement that advocates for the transformation of the human condition by developing and making widely available sophisticated technologies to greatly enhance human intellect and physiology.

Singularitarianism is a movement defined by the belief that a technological singularity—the creation of superintelligence—will likely happen in the medium future, and that deliberate action ought to be taken to ensure that the singularity benefits humans.

Human enhancement
We already use technology to enhance our ability since millennia, think for example simple tool like a pickaxe, an axe or the plough such technology helped human achieve things that would have never been possible by own mere body alone, transhumanism advocates that we should move to the next step and start enhancing out body and our brain, this is the next step of human evolution we shall become Übermensch.

Freedom from the human condition
Transhumanism aims to free humans from the human condition, living as a human should be a choice(and a right) not something you're forced onto.

Singularity
The unavoidable advancement in artificial intelligence and information technology is soon gonna put humans in an existential crisis, soon a world where humans are not needed anymore is gonna come, transhumanism aims to prepare humans for this future by giving them the tools(enhancement) to stay relevant in a post-human society.

Loudspeakers and audio general

Hey, let's talk about loudspeakers and audio reproduction in general (and save our comrades from audiofoolery). Headphone fags not allowed.

Obligatory links to get up to speed:
* https://numeralnine.wordpress.com/2013/10/09/a-brief-guide-to-audio-for-the-skeptical-consumer/
* http://sound.whsites.net/articles.htm

The tl;dr is:
* Active speakers have been the future for decades already; don't bother with passive stuff.
* Forget non professional (studio) stuff unless you're a faggot.
* Generally, the more measurements the brand produces, the more trusty it is: Neumann and Genelec are the top dogs here. You can also look at ATC's SCM50ASL or PMC's IB2S-AII when you feel like your bank account has way too many digits.
* Start with Yamaha's HS5/HS7 or Presonus's Eris E5/E8. The Behringer B2030A is also quite interesting (a Genelec monitor clone).
* Forget subwoofers, they're almost always inferior to 3 ways (room correction nightmare, 2 ways' woofers aren't proper midrange drivers, trip to THDland unless you spend quite a lot).

Question: has anyone here actually heard the priciest stuff like the aforementioned ATC, PMC or pic related (Genelec 8260A)?

Saying it is a Honeypot doesn't make it one

>don't use X service it's a honeypot
>trusting x, an actual honeypot
>is X a honeypot

Unless there is proof that whatever your saying is actually a trap (what honeypots are) then the claim is equivalent to saying that an unmeasured object exists.

If you are actually worried if service or application X is a honeypot do your own research and see if there were any examples if that service being used to prosecute someone.

Also if your going to claim something is a honeypot it would be more constructive to say what would make you trust service X as not a honeypot like it being opensource or something.

Seriously getting really annoyed how everyone is getting super paranoid over anything including opensource projects.

Any notable sources of useful, salvageable tech that normal niggers throw away because they're either too stupid to fix or don't care? Not talking about sources of meth metal or shithole scrappers.

If you do any sort of hardware projects, there are many reusable, serialized parts, that you can pull from such things that won't be associated with your purchasing history.

One such item that is commonly overlooked are the wifi modules used in smart TVs and wireless printers. Bluetooth modules are also used in some other devices, these can probably be salvaged as well. Most will have datasheets online so you can find out how to integrate them into your project.

Alternative internet thread

Cease the "muh dystopia" faggotry. Let's fucking do something about it.
No bitching in this thread.
Let's share experiences and guides and try to actually work something out.
Here are some of my experiences.

= TOR =
I use tor all of the time.
It's like a shitty condom. Good enough for now, but I wouldn't want to rely on it. Setup is very simple (download tor, run it in the background, configure your browser to use localhost:9050 as the SOCKS proxy).

= Anonet =
I've tried Anonet today. It's some kind of a community based VPN and they even have their own DNS with their own TLDs. I couldn't get this to work. OpenVPN kept failing due to some kind of problem with one of their certificates. It's important to mention that I've tried it on a Fedora laptop I've had laying around. I may try it on my main OpenBSD machine later, and, if so, I'll update later.

= I2P and Freenet =
I will make absolutely no attempt to run any program written in Java, and neither should you. I'm a bit of a C fanatic, but other people have other choices and if a good program is written in C++ or Go or Rust or whatever, I'm fine with that. Java, however, is where I draw the fucking line. It's right up there with Microsoft's Dot Net framework.

= I2Pd =
I've tried I2Pd, an I2P client written in C++, on both OpenBSD and Void Linux, and had no luck on both of them. I've tried loading some I2P pages that I could find, but they all lead to some kind of index/home page bundled with I2Pd.

= Gopher =
I've gotten Gopher to work on an Arch machine a while ago (but you can probably get it to work anywhere). It's very minimal and tailored to be text only, which I like, but isn't very security/anonymity oriented. Sure, it may be text only but I'm sure that if it gets enough attention (((they))) will figure out a way to fuck things up. Yeah, you can use TOR on top of Gopher, but that seems to me like redundant suck-n'-fucking.

Currently I don't have much free time, but I plan on trying to develop some kind of an alternative network based on satellite dishes or antennas that people can build easily at home and built as a mesh network where encryption is mandatory. Maybe one day.

Secure VOICE Communications General

The topic of programs offering optimum privacy in communication is a common topic on many tech forum. Similarly common are their conclusions. Any sensible persons come to the conclusion that XMPP plus OMEMO encryption beats anything else by miles. I agree that XMPP is king for text communication.

Except... a factor is often inexplicably ignored in this consensus.

Voice calling. Especially group voice calling.

So, with that, what is *the only competent* /g/'s sentiment on privacy focused protocols/programs offering voice chat functionality?

Forking Linux and I don't Like OpenBSD

Call me a nigger loving Jew fag money hungry ass licking donkey fucking shill, but I don't like OpenBSD.
I like what OpenBSD stands for. I think it's noble how seriously they take security and code cleanliness. I respect practitioners of wise, old traditions. But god damn, using OpenBSD feels to me like a punishment.
Here are some critiques:
- They download firmware on the first boot without asking you (yeah, I know it can be removed using fw_update -da, fuck you.).
- Their package manager is dog shit. Seriously, even Debian's Aptitude is better than OpenBSD's package management tools.
- Their console is fucked. They've tried to implement Latin diacritics into it(probably because it's built in Canada and they want to type in French) and it makes using the console a fucking pain in the ass.
- Their audio system is pretty weird. I couldn't get it to work properly on my X200, and on other computers it would play sound from all available outputs at once. Granted, I was too fucking lazy/stupid to try and configure it, but still.
- Their compilers complain if you use C's basic string functions instead of their safer replacements. I understand where they're coming from and this isn't even an issue, but god damn, shut the fuck up.
- They include GCC by default. Yeah, they don't _use_ it by default and it's the (((industry standard))) (although this argument doesn't even make sense since they don't include gmake, which is required to execute some Makefiles designed by assholes), but I'd like to avoid using that shit if I'm not on Linux.
- OpenBSD is pretty fucking slow. I don't know if it is because their kernel is still biglocked or whatever other reason they may have, but I was struggling to run a simple dwm setup on my X200 under OpenBSD while a Fedora livecd I've had laying around absolutely flied with GNOME and Firefox and all that kikery.
I've got mad respect for OpenBSD because they do a lot of shit quite well (using a simple MAKEDEV script rather than implementing something like Udev, their minimal bootloader, their clean philosophy and style of code and their overall conservative attitude are just a few examples), but it's just not that usable for me when I want to just get shit done.
My ultimate setup currently consists of a simple Gentoo with all kikery (SystemD, GNOME, etc) disabled in the USE flags. A simple dwm workflow with st and a few essential programs. I use tcc to compile all of the programs that I write (and it more than suffices), and for web browsing I run Icecat over TOR through a Void chroot. I always use Linux 4.9 as it works well on all of my hardware. I'd really like to clean the code, remove many things, audit for any kike backdoor that may have been implemented and maybe one day even get the whole thing to compile under tcc. Currently I don't know much about kernel development and I work on many other projects, but with all the people you've had a while back crying "fork" at the then newly CoCed Linux, I've decided to go ahead and do it. I've decided to call it Buttox and host it on NotABug.org.
https://notabug.org/ae/buttox
I don't want to innovate anything, just minimalise and remove as many things as possible. I'd prefer doing things myself rather than making this another gay ass open source community project, so please refer me to books on Linux development and kernel development in general, make suggestions or just call me a faggot.

What do you think about the unification of the audio frequencies of electromechanical devices which produce sound?

Or do you question the viability of this prospect due to believing the only genres of music that sound bad with flatter frequency curves are normnigger trash anyway; and thus made solely for normnigger, v-shaped frequency curve audio equipment?

Rulecuck "programmers"

Why can't a rulecuck into formalism? Why can't they follow a simple API acording to its rules? Literally 20 of the Java or C# "programmers" in the world know about the memory model, and the rest are spewing latent concurrency/compilation induced bugs everywhere - for example not marking variables as "volatile" where needed. Because they're lazy incompetent fucks. Look up any man page and find explicit examples of pitfalls they describe, and you'll find 99.999% of code that exists falls for them. For example:
>A successful return from write() does not make any guarantee that data has been committed to disk.
>If a write() is interrupted by a signal handler before any bytes are written, then the call fails with the error EINTR
Even something as simple as these two. The rulecuck may do some of them right but the majority of his code will ignore every single detail of the API and publish his code as long as it sounds right at a syntactic level
this is how he reads or writes code:
>write(username_fd,username,username_len);
>oh obviously that line writes a username to the file designated by username_fd, next line

>crossing the street is illegal
>gets mad when someone crosses the street which is empty for 300 meters
>proudly restates the rationale for the rule at any given opportunity
>knows 30,000 of these rules
<i didnt know that was a rule
>THATS NO EXCUSE FUCKO
But as soon as he starts programming, it's just "PROGRAMMING IS HARD!", and "it's just a minor issue, the market doesn't care, we'll just fix it after they complain". Their code is literally just composed of this. The primitives of what they use to build a product are an invalid API call and an invalid construct of the programming language.

What hashing algorithm to use?

I'm writing a program that stores files addressed by their hash digest, now I'm wondering what hashing algorithm to use.

I was inclined to go with BLAKE2b because of its speed an security but it isn't used much and I'd rather use something that is more commonly used so I can possibly deduplicate without having to hash the same file twice.

I'm guessing SHA256 is the most commonly (8chan and Nanochan uses this) used and still secure enough (though not against length extension attacks)
But it is also twice as slow as BLAKE2b ... so what should I do use something that almost no one uses but is more secure and faster or use something that is less secure and slower but more commonly used so I can use it more often to deduplicate without having to hash a file twice.

Or should I simply hash the file multiple times... (which kind of defeats the performance gains of BLAKE2b)

Sorry, I'm having trouble with making decisions

Future tech trends

was posting this to 8cuck but gave up after their captcha code kept crashing and made me solve 15 captchas
-captcha to open folders on your computer
-navigating through one folder and then to its subfolder all within 1 second causes rate limiter to kick in
-if you try to name a folder anything with "nig" as a substring, a yellow exclamation mark appears and tells you the OS prevented you from using a problematic word
-software update when you want to type more than two capital letters in a row
-every user input and even mic sent over telemetry. but bug count is still that of 1990, because software now is super advanced and uncomparable to that of 1990, for instance now we have an animation when you put the mouse over a tab
-when putting a new file into a folder, you need to reboot to see it
-typing less than symbol instead of &lt; crashes the entire OS
-typing "' or" dispatches police to your house
-every IP packet tagged and cryptographically signed with government ID which is tied to public social credit system. the crypto is flawed of course and we can impersonate someone downloading/uploading CP
-10 seconds input latency. it's just 10 seconds that's nothing
-pasting a string into the terminal requires running it through 3 programs to sanitize it, typing a command in the terminal to enable a mode, pasting, then typing a command to disable that mode. then you need to double escape it for 2 different languages

Mah Software

Hello, my name is Icchimarin Raspitrik from Deus-One-No State of ███████ and ████ ████, I'm 15 aged minicraft dev, miniDF-ni dev, in future minifactorio-ni dev, but It's thread not about this.
It's about open (free almost) software that I distribute and develope sometimes.
My soft:
0. https://gitlab.com/Ninikaita/nnaamapeiko nnaamapeiko — map visualising instrument. For now it is being refactoring, and this version supports only tile planeting. I stoled many shots from g00gle mapS and watch it sometimes. Maybe I will make low-zoom Earth map from some resources as example. Next step to visualize maps is add OSM support. I know about Marble, I don't like it.
Nnaamapeiko is made by some components:
libnnaamapeiko.so — main lib for drawing and accessing content.
TilePlanet.so — module for loading and displaying tile planets. Has major bug, because of which I not implemented threaded tile loading yet.
nnaamap — C written SDL2 map.
pynaska (future) — Python written Qt application.
nnaamap and pynaska has differing GUIs.
1. https://gitlab.com/Ninikaita/jdavabrav/ Jdavabrav — modular web-browser writtent on Python with PyQt5. Has GET and POST-operations (without files). Has options for each tab. Inconvenient yet.
This 2 softs is useless, but in future maybe, usable.
2. [deleted] mctagfs — an application, that mounts tagged filesystem to directory from data directory and list. It was profitful for me, but thereat I found out about hard links and become gloomy. Maybe it will be resurrected at someday.
3. [future] ████████ — compiler-interpreter for █████ programming language. I made it for 20%, at end of May will be released plus website plus some libraries for this PL.
static typed, compilable, parallel-and-cluster-computable with multivalue operations.
4. [future] a launcher for freedesktoped programs and own launchers. Main feature is huge icons and grid-layout. I wanted mature application, but not found. It's simple Qt launcher, I want it use on i3 and go to i3. If you know such program, let me know.
5. [future] GUI, my own GUI. Neither Qt, nor GTK, nor EFL I like.
bytes Stream based, so can be used from files, MCUs, networks and other applications as modular GUI. Backends may be OpenGL, Vulkan and own rasterizer.
6. [future] File Manager. I would contribute to existing file manager, but I want make it with my GUI. Somewhen I tried a file manager for android and opened a directory with images, it was beatiful, this big images, that I see, I want to repeat but on GNU/Linux (No, I mean free system where all made of modular components such as Linux kernel, user libraries and applications)
7. [future] document ML like HTML.
IIIIIIII HHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTEEEEEEEEEEEEE WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEB. I make Jdavabrav because of this, but I still hate JS + some other web technologies. HTML and CSS also isn't good things for me, so I want to make my own hypertext document ML based on my GUI.
7. [future] My own raytracing rasterizer. I want make this. I don't like OpenGL becuase it don't support curves (yes?) and I want raytracing for better 3D without "shaders" or what it is. I know that OpenGL is standart, supported by a lot of hardware facturers, but with █████ and OpenCL (maybe) I can speed up computations of rendering.

Are you thinking I want only make my own software? No, I would contribute to some existing software, such as a text editor, but I don't have so, that I would like. If find, maybe get.
And LLVM, but I don't know the architecture well, and Don't like C++, and don't know what kind of objectives there is.
Tesseract OCR is also good program, but I don't know sources also and objectives too.

In this blog I will write about my software, updates and other things.

Also I would like to know, if is there application to integration and differentiation of functions. In my language is callable objects, so I can easly replace sin() function to same object, that calls as sin(), and has deriviative and antiderivative functions. I also want know functions to process tensors, such as transpose and interpolation of images, Ghaus what.
Also I want to know about optimizations. At some day I got knowledge how to compute Fibonachi by matrixes, but I didn't understand yet. Also I think about memoization, caching of results.
What do you think?

4. Gentoo Linux (51)
Gentoo Linux is a versatile and fast, completely free Linux distribution geared towards developers and network professionals. Unlike other distros, Gentoo Linux has an advanced package management system called Portage. Portage is a true ports system in the tradition of BSD ports, but is Python-based and sports a number of advanced features including dependencies, fine-grained package management, "fake" (OpenBSD-style) installs, safe unmerging, system profiles, virtual packages, config file management, and more.

5. Tiny Core Linux (88)
Tiny Core Linux is a 12 MB graphical Linux desktop. It is based on a recent Linux kernel, BusyBox, Tiny X, Fltk, and Flwm. The core runs entirely in memory and boots very quickly. The user has complete control over which applications and/or additional hardware to have supported, be it for a desktop, a nettop, an appliance or server; selectable from the project's online repository.

6. Absolute Linux (105)
Absolute Linux is a light-weight modification of Slackware Linux.

Guix System Distribution (GuixSD) is a Linux-based, stateless operating system that is built around the GNU Guix package manager. The operating system provides advanced package management features such as transactional upgrades and roll-backs, reproducible build environments, unprivileged package management, and per-user profiles. It uses low-level mechanisms from the Nix package manager, but packages are defined as native Guile modules, using extensions to the Scheme language.

9. heads (170)
heads is a privacy-focused Linux distribution designed to make it easy for users to access the Internet anonymously using the Tor network. heads is based on Devuan and features only free (libre) software. The Linux kernel has had non-free blobs removed.

10. Funtoo Linux (175)
Funtoo Linux is a Gentoo-based distribution developed by Daniel Robbins (the founder and former project leader of Gentoo Linux) and a core team of developers, built around a basic vision of improving the core technologies in Gentoo Linux. Funtoo Linux features native UTF-8 support enabled by default, a git-based, distributed Portage tree and Funtoo overlay, an enhanced Portage with more compact mini-manifest tree, automated imports of new Gentoo changes every 12 hours, GPT/GUID boot support and streamlined boot configuration, enhanced network configuration, up-to-date stable and current Funtoo stages - all built using Funtoo's Metro build tool.

11. RancherOS (176)
RancherOS is a tiny Linux distribution that runs the entire operating system as Docker containers. This includes system services, such as udev and rsyslog. RancherOS includes only the bare minimum amount of software needed to run Docker. This keeps the binary download of RancherOS very small. Everything else can be pulled in dynamically through Docker.

12. Refracta (185)
Refracta is a Linux distribution based on Devuan GNU+Linux (a systemd-free fork of Debian), designed primarily for home computer users and also for use as a system rescue and recovery disk. It provides a simple and familiar layout using the Xfce desktop. Other desktop environments and additional software packages are available from the Devuan package repository. Besides providing a Linux distribution on a live CD, the project also develops useful tools, such as refractainstaller, refractasnapshot and refracta2usb which allow users to customize the installation and create custom live CD or live USB images.

13. CloudReady (197)
CloudReady is an operating system built and maintained by Neverware. Based on Google’s open source Chromium OS, CloudReady uses web apps and cloud storage instead of traditional software and local storage. The CloudReady distribution is available in free and commercially supported versions.

14. Lunar Linux (198)
Lunar is a source based Linux distribution with a unique package management system which builds each software package, or module, for the machine it is being installed on. Though it can take a while to do a complete Lunar installation it's worth it as it tends to be quite fast, once installed! In the beginning Lunar was a fork of Sorcerer GNU Linux (SGL). The fork occurred in late January to early February of 2002 and was originally made up of a small group of people who wanted to collaboratively develop and extend the Sorcerer technology. The original name for the project was Lunar-Penguin but the group decided to re-christen it Lunar Linux while the Lunar-Penguin name has become a sort of umbrella which the team could use if they decide to collaboratively develop something besides Lunar Linux.

15. Parted Magic (199)
Parted Magic is a small live CD/USB/PXE with its elemental purpose being to partition hard drives. Although GParted and Parted are the main programs, the CD/USB also offers other applications, such as Partition Image, TestDisk, fdisk, sfdisk, dd, ddrescue, etc. In August 2013 the distribution became a commercial product and is no longer available as a free download.

16. Trusted End Node Security (213)
Trusted End Node Security (TENS), previously called Lightweight Portable Security (LPS), is a Linux-based live CD with a goal of allowing users to work on a computer without the risk of exposing their credentials and private data to malware, key loggers and other Internet-era ills. It includes a minimal set of applications and utilities, such as the Firefox web browser or an encryption wizard for encrypting and decrypting personal files. The live CD is a product produced by the United States of America's Department of Defence and is part of that organization's Software Protection Initiative.

17. Fatdog64 Linux (221)
Fatdog64 Linux is a small, desktop, 64-bit Linux distribution. Originally created as a derivative of Puppy Linux with additional applications, Fatdog64 has grown to become an independent Linux distribution while still keeping the style of Puppy Linux.

18. Cucumber Linux (243)
Cucumber Linux aims to provide a Linux distribution that is usable as an every day, general purpose operating system. It aims to this in as minimalistic a way as possible and in a way that follows the Unix Philosophy. Cucumber Linux favors simplicity and modularity of design over simplicity of use. While developed independently, Cucumber's design is heavily influenced by Slackware Linux.

19. Source Mage GNU/Linux (247)
Sourcemage is a source-based GNU/Linux distribution based on a Sorcery metaphor of 'casting' and 'dispelling' programs, which we refer to as 'spells'.

20. RasPlex (266)
RasPlex lets you turn your TV into a Smart TV. Similar to the AppleTV, but running on a Raspberry Pi computer and completely free and open source, RasPlex is basically a set-top box that lets you play content from your computer or smart phone to your TV.

Tor Hidden Service Mail Server
/g/ R:28
[D][U][F][S][L][A][C]

What is the most optimal way for a complete tech noob to get as anonymous as possible? I ask this because recently I've gotten really paranoid redpilled about everything tech-related stuff, but I'm quite literally as unknowledgeable about it as someone posting on site can be. But this also interests me on a purely hypothetical level.

So let's first assume Linux is not an option for OS: even if I was capable of learning how to use it with intense enough autism, your average normie wouldn't. So what would one go for? Get some old Windows OS like XP onto a laptop you obviously never use for non-anonymous posting/messaging? Or is there another option? Surely the older OS's aren't as riddled with backdoors etc. as the newer ones right? What about e-mail, is something like ProtonMail the most optimal, even despite it not being actually that anomymous in specific situations? Duckduckgoy for browser, or is there something better a tech noob could use with some effort?

Of course it can be debated what is the most effort one should have to put into it with it still being "tech noob -friendly". That would probably depend on the goals: if it's anonymity for anonymity's sake, not too much effort would make sense.

they have huge amount of zero-days. THEY ARE COMPROMISED

PROOF: https://darknetlive.com/post/zero-day-company-reveals-vulnerability-in-tor-browser-7-x/
>In a post on Twitter, a company specializing in purchasing zero-day exploits from researchers and selling them to government agencies revealed that several versions of the Tor Browser fail to prevent JavaScript from running even with NoScript on the most secure setting.
>The security company, Zerodium, announced the vulnerability after a new version of the Tor Browser had been released. Tor Browser 8.x is unaffected by the vulnerability, according to their announcement.
A company that earns profit on selling exploits for tor browser is telling you that tbb 7.X in UNSAFE and you need to migrate to SAFE tbb 8. does that sound legit? what is their motivation? how do you think?
if TBB 7 is so insecure, why would they speak about it publicly instead of selling zero-days for it?
the true reason is, because they have a lot of zero-days for TBB8, whereas TBB7 is mature and they won't be able to find much more holes.
THEY ARE A PRIVATE COMPANY that is "specializing in purchasing zero-day exploits from researchers and selling them to government agencies". Your security is not in their interests, their interests is making profit by selling zero-days. If they shill for updating TBB to version 8, that means they will profit from it. How? By selling zero-days for TBB8. They have a lot of them.
>Advisory: Tor Browser 7.x has a serious vuln/bugdoor leading to full bypass of Tor / NoScript ‘Safest’ security level (supposed to block all JS).
The exploit in TBB7 is not in browser code but in NoScript. However, NoScript creators quickly released a fix. You can get it here: https://noscript.net/getit you need the 5.1.9 version for TBB7 and FF ESR <60.
However, those fuckers from Zerodium, they tell you bullshit that you need to update your entire browser. Which is total bullshit. All you need is update NoScript.
Zerodium shill for TBB8 because they have huge amount of exploits for it and they will get rich from it.

Another problem with TBB8 is that it stops spoofing useragent. It lowers your privacy.

How do you spread chaos and deception?

I can see you have an understanding of OPSEC. You may know that hiding is not enough for most. The solution is chaos. Noise. False data. False information. Deception.
This works against AI. It even works against most humans too.
You ask if I use google? Yes. I abuse google. I never use google as a service. One time a week I go to google just to tell it lies. Same with other services and search engines. When their databases get stolen, all they get is fake information. If any real information exists from years ago, it is an outlier to be ignored.

>OnionShare is an open source tool for securely and anonymously sending and receiving files using Tor onion services. It works by starting a web server directly on your computer and making it accessible as an unguessable Tor web address that others can load in Tor Browser to download files from you, or upload files to you. It doesn't require setting up a separate server, using a third party file-sharing service, or even logging into an account.

As far as I can tell, this isn't doing anything new. It's just simplifying the process of creating a hidden web server, encrypting a file, and the receiving end decrypting it.

Do you think it is secure? Would you use this? What kind of files would you send or use to securely receive?

Private Email

What is the most secure email, and why is it Disroot?

Here we are defining secure as "even if I'm a scary nigger-hating nazi, the email host doesn't know and if the feds come knocking all they have to turn over is a bunch of encrypted data with no password."

It's inevitable that all email is insecure. A good example is protonmail using its Switzerland location as a marketing gimmick. In truth, Switzerland has a legal agreement with the US and will gladly hand over data if they're "asked." Services hiding behind "court orders" are equally worthless, since it's trivial for governments to draft up a quick court order. And these are just some of the many issues.

The only solution then, is Plausible Deniability. A service that operates on a zero information policy. When the feds come knocking, all they'll have are worthless encrypted files. This forces the feds to compromise the user's end, and if you're playing light on your feet rather than trying to be the big macho hackerman you'll be able to avoid them for the most part.

Along these lines, I propose Disroot. Discuss and disagree.

EU Puts An End To The Open Internet: Link Taxes And Filters Appr

>EU Puts An End To The Open Internet: Link Taxes And Filters Approved By Just 5 Votes

> Well, it was a nice run while it lasted, but the EU Parliament has just put an end to the open internet. By the incredibly thin margin of just five votes, the Parliament voted to approve the EU Copyright Directive, including the terrible versions of both Article 11 and 13. This is an inauspicious day and one that the EU will almost certainly come to regret. While we now need to see how each of the member states will implement the actual laws put forth in the Directive (meaning the damage in some states may be more mitigatable than in others), on the whole the EU Copyright Directive requires laws that effectively end the open internet as an open communications medium. Sites that previously allowed content creators to freely publish content will now be forced to make impossible choices: license all content (which is literally impossible), filter all content (expensive and failure-prone), or shut down. Sites that used to send traffic to news sources may now need to reconsider, as doing so will inexplicably require payment.

>At best, the EU--for all its complaints about Google and Facebook--has just locked both companies into a dominant position. They can afford this. Others cannot. And, the legacy gatekeepers in the media and entertainment business will quickly pivot to seeking to export this model elsewhere.

>The MEPs who voted for this are up for election in two months, and hopefully the EU shows them the door, but in the meantime, today is a sad day for the open internet. I am sure that some will be celebrating on the false belief that this will magically "help artists." It will not. You just handed more power to giant companies, and took it away from creators. In time, one hopes, those who mocked the protesters and activists and actual experts will come to realize just how much they destroyed today.

If these 10 users proceeded to repeat this collaborative effort without changing circuits, posting an identical post in another thread at precisely the same time, could each new post be tied to the previous post made over the same connection?

Lavabit Disappointment

I'll admit I've been looking forward to the re-launch of Lavabit. Viable USA-based email is scarce, and it's easy to understand why. The founder clearly has some integrity, though, risking his personal freedom and his business for his principles. But if the price didn't put me off, a quick review of the new Lavabit's privacy pledge would: http://archivecaslytosk.onion/IE5rM
>On a final note, the Lavabit e-mail servers do record the IP address used to send an outgoing message in the header of an outgoing e-mail. Because of this, it is possible for the recipient of a message to identify what IP was used to send a message. We record this information in the message header so that law enforcement officials in possession of a message that violates the law can identify the original sender. Lavabit does not retain this information.
This is a deal-breaker for me. The current crop of private German providers strip IP addresses from outgoing messages, as does cock.li. There seems no excuse for this today. Although depending on the outcome of a recent case with one provider, the end may be neigh for German providers, too: http://archivecaslytosk.onion/iWgtk

For non-throwaway exchanges, I was thinking of something ratchet-based - like the encryption instant messengers use. Their one-on-one conversations aren't different from e-mail anyway. For example, you'd keep the PGP layer, but exchange the initial keys for the ratchet as well, deleting the first email from the server or using another/throwaway address for it. That way, the entire dialogue can be read only if you got your hands on the letter with the keys. But I'm sure there are better ways.

watching TV like a goy

if you wanted to watch TV, what would you choose:
USB dongle VS set top box

USB dongle
+cheaper
+allows you to record TV out of the box
+very small
+can be used to receive other types of radio (SDR)
-requires some drivers and software, possible chinese backdoor and botnet
-uses your CPU a lot, can be expensive (power usage) and slow down other things on your PC
-soykaf quality, could be unreliable, destroy your PC, or just die

Set-top-box
+can be connected to any monitor, TV, etc you don't need a PC for it to work
+is isolated, you just connect output signal to monitor or PC, cannot hack your PC
+doesn't use your CPU power, it has it's own CPU, takes power from wall plug
+reliable, good quality, won't harm your PC
-more expensive
-if you want to record you need some additional device
-bigger, heavier
-cannot be used to receive other types of radio than the ones implemented

>Like aMule, iMule aims to be portable over multiple platforms with the use of the wxWidgets library. Supported systems include Linux, Mac OS X, various BSD-derived operating systems, Windows and Solaris.

>Due to BitTorrent popularity and lack of censorship, the necessity to install the software I2P in order to configure the I2P router with proxy 127.0.0.1 port 4444 before going download iMule from the eepsite http://echelon.i2p and download the file nodes.dat, the software failed to gain popularity.

Is tor vunerable to Stegosploit tecnique?

https://thehackernews.com/2015/06/Stegosploit-malware.html

>TLDR

>Malicious code or exploit is encoded inside the image’s pixels, which is then decoded using an HTML 5 Canvas element that allows for dynamic, scriptable rendering of images.

>The malicious code, dubbed IMAJS, is a combination of both image code as well as JavaScript hidden into a JPG or PNG image file. Shah hides the malicious code within the image’s pixels, and unless somebody zoom a lot into it, the image looks just fine from the outside.

>fucking javashit

Is this even patchable? It seems like 90% of the exploits in tor come from javascript.

Only solution I can think of would be if the browser reformated the images before displaying them. But that sounds resource intensive.

GUI programming is easy as fuck. You just need to not be an obvlivious lazy shithead

Format:
>How it should be
<What actually happens

>The user operates in milliseconds. Not hundreds-thousands of milliseconds. 20ms or less
<Hurr durr your system is slow just get a new computer bruh
<t. fag who thinks he has a fast computer because a hamburger menu only takes 1000ms to open

>Have hotkeys for pretty much everything
<Hamburger menu and shit that has no hotkeys and makes you wait 3 seconds before showing the contents of the menu

>Don't have shithead surprise functionality
<Booting bloated grub3 in library
<Have "nigger" as one of the boot entries
<spam enter key so niggers behind me don't see it
<system speaker beeps 5 times

>Opening a new window should happen instantly. The window will be grey box until the program loads and paints to it (needs WM support). If you can actually see the box it means the program is shit
<You click the button to open your shitty bloated file or web browser and nothing happens, so you continue working in your text editor while waiting for it to load, then the window you requested finally opens while you're typing and gets fucked up

>Don't have a single program instance if you can't even fucking do it right
<Firecuck stays open in the background after you close it. If you try to reopen firecuck in this situation, it will make you wait a few seconds, then show a popup saying "firecuck is already open". WELL THANKS FOR NOTHING SHITHEAD

>If your disk really is as fucking slow as modern software makes it look, stuff like the text editor, image viewer, and file browser (all of which should be tiny) should be in memory at all times
<Takes 30 seconds to start any "minimal" file browser after boot
<Windows superfetch bullshit doesn't work because it tries to be smart instead of having an explicit list of programs to be cached, and they're all bloated and either waste entire RAM or knock each other out

>LCD screens are incapable of displaying animations. There is literally no way to show animated content in a non-retarded way for 99.9999% of users. Stop fucking trying
<Slide tabs across the screen, which become blurry, juddery, and unreadable
<Bonus points to every program which has one or more of the following: no vsync, input lag, judder, user is not allowed to press buttons while waiting for the animation to end

>It's completely unacceptable for a GUI to freeze for over a second. If you need disk access or something else that's slow as fuck, it should be done in motherfucking parallel
<Program freezes for multiple seconds while loading some retarded shit from disk or IPC. even just to open a menu (it's 2019 after all)

Webshit
>I don't fucking care if your website has cookies. I already knew it did in 1990. Fuck your privacy policy, I don't give a shit about your claims, don't waste 1/3 of the page telling me all this bullshit. Fuck your popups
<"CONCENT FORM". really...

<I don't care if your manager or some retarded regulator asked you to put this here. Punch them in the face

>Don't be a retard fuck
<Firecuck makes you wait for a round trip to the server before letting you choose where to save the file

Article 13 and the EU Copyright Directive has been finalized

What’s in the EU Copyright Directive
>Hot off the press, take a look at the final wording of Article 11 and Article 13. Here’s my summary:

Article 13: Upload filters
>Parliament negotiator Axel Voss accepted the deal between France and Germany I laid out in a recent blog post:
> Commercial sites and apps where users can post material must make “best efforts” to preemptively buy licences for anything that users may possibly upload – that is: all copyrighted content in the world. An impossible feat.
> In addition, all but very few sites (those both tiny and very new) will need to do everything in their power to prevent anything from ever going online that may be an unauthorised copy of a work that a rightsholder has registered with the platform. They will have no choice but to deploy upload filters, which are by their nature both expensive and error-prone.
> Should a court ever find their licensing or filtering efforts not fierce enough, sites are directly liable for infringements as if they had committed them themselves. This massive threat will lead platforms to over-comply with these rules to stay on the safe side, further worsening the impact on our freedom of speech.

Article 11: The “link tax”
>The final version of this extra copyright for news sites closely resembles the version that already failed in Germany – only this time not limited to search engines and news aggregators, meaning it will do damage to a lot more websites.
> Reproducing more than “single words or very short extracts” of news stories will require a licence. That will likely cover many of the snippets commonly shown alongside links today in order to give you an idea of what they lead to. We will have to wait and see how courts interpret what “very short” means in practice – until then, hyperlinking (with snippets) will be mired in legal uncertainty.
> No exceptions are made even for services run by individuals, small companies or non-profits, which probably includes any monetised blogs or websites.

Boomers are always saying shit like "don't give away your ideas". This doesn't matter, the software industry is too fucking incompetent to implement your ideas.
-Results of Zooko's Triangle:
-Mailing system where you give out one unguessable address per person who wants to contact you
-Cryptographic hash of public key as a domain name (Tor has this but the hash is too small. They recently added newer hashes but I haven't read about it yet to decide whether it's also BS)
-etc
-Capability security model
-Memory safety (my OS is still not memory safe, and I can't find a memory-safe OS for doing simple computations like chat and browsing static web pages)
-Functional programming (there's still nothing as good as SML being used in practice)
-Fixed framerate=tickrate game, synchronized to the server's clock to minimize latency, as well as having the monitor synchronized to the game (by adjusting pixel clock or just using VRR)
-Beam racing (like gsync/freesync but better and works on any monitor, merely requires program to be able to render on time. trivial to implement for 2D applications)
-A programming language where every identifer is a GUID and signed by the author
-An imageboard viewer where a thread is a DAG layed out vertically having every post below whatever posts are older than it, with good zooming functionality and navigation controls
-<video> tags for the web (ignoring format BS, every implementation of this is _still_ fucking garbage. seeking sucks monkey dick and even clicking somewhere on the video it feels like if you click the wrong thing the browser is going to crash)

>Electronic transactions for all. Without censorship or restrictions.
>Grin empowers anyone to transact or save modern money without the fear of external control or oppression. Grin is designed for the decades to come, not just tomorrow. Grin wants to be usable by everyone, regardless of borders, culture, skills or access.

Private
>Grin has no amounts and no addresses. Transactions can be trivially aggregated. To hide where a newly created transaction comes from, it gets relayed privately (a "random walk") among peers before it is publicly announced.

Scalable
>MimbleWimble leverages cryptography to allow most of the past transaction data to be removed. This guarantees Grin won't crumble under its own weight in the long term.

Open
>Grin is developed openly, by developers distributed all over the world. It's not controlled by any company, foundation or individual. The coin distribution is designed to be as fair (but not gratis) as is known to be possible.

>Grin is under development. Launch planned for Jan. 15th 2019.

Search engines | Why you should not trust DuckDuckGo

- It is hosted on Amazon Web Services (which has a $600 million contract with the CIA)
- Gabriel Weinberg, the creator and owner formerly ran a site called NamesDatabase which encouraged people to provide valid personal details and to refer other people to give their information
- "We also save searches, but again, not in a personally identifiable way, as we do not store IP addresses or unique User agent strings. We use aggregate, non-personal search data to improve things like misspellings." [1]
- Despite bangs simply referring to another search engine, "Bang" queries are still send to and stored by DuckDuckGo (this could be solved with Javascript is enabled, or in one of its extensions/apps)
- DuckDuckGo knows whether you're scrolling down on the page since website icons are lazy loaded
- On the Hidden Service website icons are still fetched from duckduckgo.com
- DNS registration information is protected by WhoisGuard
- Google has released the Duck.com domain name for DuckDuckGo in 2018
- Apple (in 2014) and Mozilla (in 2018) have added DuckDuckGo as an search engine option
- DuckDuckGo used to set cookies even though they said they didn't [2]
- DuckDuckGo used to submit the URL you're clicking on to DuckDuckGo's servers

Images and privacy

It's relatively easy to track down who somebody can be just by the images they upload, especially if they're on a close environment with a relatively small pool of users. Every time you repeatedly post an image you will always be showing a part of yourself, and if you use it even more frequently, not only are you lowering the quality of the board by repeating content, but you're also making yourself easier to target.
To which I'd like to ask, how do you defend yourself from being tracked down through images, if you have a small amount of them? Only two ways to fix that would be to either massively start saving whatever you see, or making original content, which even then can be tracked down to you. There must be even more alternatives, one can attempt to change the names of the files every so often, but even then, if there is a pattern of images that's being posted that guy can still be easy to track down

C pointer dereferencing

As we all know (hopefully), pointer dereferencing in C can be done in one of three ways.

*ptr or 0[ptr]
ptr[9]
ptr->elem

Why can't we just unify those three methods into one, using brackets just like in (nasm syntax) assembly? It would be just like if the 0 in 0[ptr] could be omitted by default. The dot syntax for struct field access could be replaced by -> (just because it looks better imo). So those three operations could be written as:

[ptr]
[ptr+9]
[ptr]->elem

Anyone have a problem with this?

Could non-botnet pneumatic computers be built?
Pic related, is a schematic for an air-powered transistor which I found online.
I suppose the solid layer (the grey material) could be transparent plastic or glass (for ease of debugging) or metal. The flexible layer (black material) could be cling film or equivalent.
If those materials could be used, and the transistor actually worked, this would be really easy to do at home.

Using SD cards for secure "air-gapped" file transfer
Using USB sticks to transfer files across multiple computers is certainly not secure since the USB bus allows for Direct Memory Access and an USB device can pretend to be anything by changing its firmware/software.

Now, SD cards are far more limited as to what they are allowed to access on the host computer and offer only an SPI interface to write to and read files from it. Now, what do you think is it reasonably secure using an SD card to transfer files or not?

<Just use CD/DVDs
That's an option though it is quite bulky and quite wasteful (for write-once CD/DVDs)

Katzenpost (Mix network) - Traffic analysis resistant messaging

>Goals
> to prevent a sufficiently global passive adversary from learning who is communicating with whom
> to detect active attacks against the network infrastructure
> hide message content from participating providers, hide recipient identity from the sender’s provider, and the sender identity from the recipient’s provider

Has anyone tried a mix network before and this one in particular? I think this should be looked into much more than it currently is, because low-latency networks such as Tor or I2P are not protecting you from people who can see incoming and outgoing traffic.

What do you think of my setup /g/?

Because I do not want to give every process on my laptop access to the Internet I block all Internet connectivity with a Firewall on my laptop and I block all Internet access for that laptop on my router as well.

Now to get access to the internet I allow only access to port 22 (SSH) and my router IP, then I run this command if I want to connect to the Internet:
ssh root@192.168.1.1 -D 9000

Which sets up a SOCKS5 proxy which allows you to use the Internet connection of the router, processes can be configured to use that SOCKS5 proxy (TCP only) if you want these processes to connect to the Internet.

For the router I'm using a commercial router with OpenWrt, though I rather have a bit more trustworthy hardware and software ...

PCI sound card conversion to DAC/ADC

I've got a PCI sound card which has quite a few input and output channels. I'm interested in trying to rig up a simple interface for connecting to LEDs and shit, like what one would do with a raspberry pi GPIO. Here are the inputs and outputs available on that PCI sound card:

* line in and mic (*2/stereo for 4 total input channels)
* front out, rear out, center out (*2/stereo for 6 total output channels)

However, the problem is that if I set a 1Hz signal to be output on one of the output channels, the signal decays over time. If I rip off/desolder all the capacitors near the output connectors, will this fix the problem? I heard that these capacitors stop very low frequencies from getting through.

>In seeking to comply with the Linux kernel's new Code of Conduct enacted by the recent 4.19 release, a patch series has been sent out today replacing profane kernel code comments with "hugs".
>Like with most complex codebases -- especially ones developed over the course of many years by many different developers -- the Linux kernel has its share of colorful words within code comments left by developers. With a set of 15 patches sent out today by Jarkko Sakkinen of Intel, the kernel has no more fucks but instead only hugs. "In order to comply with the CoC, replace with a hug."
>Some of the revised code comments now include "IOC3 is hugging hugged beyond belief", "Only Sun can take such nice parts and hug up the programming interface like this. Good job guys...", "Hugging broken ABI", "avoid hugging up the memory controller (somehow)", and "Hug, we are miserable poor guys..."
>Surprisingly, at least with this initial patch series, it's just 33 lines of changed comments out of 3.3+ million lines of code comments within the kernel source tree but we'll see what other words may get cleaned up next for making the Linux kernel more inviting to all. Linus Torvalds has also cleaned up his colorful language and refrained from any outbursts on the mailing list since his brief retreat during the 4.19 cycle.

Don't be a keyboard fanatic!

Mouse or keyboard? BOTH obviously! each are good at different things.

>But you can use programs/extensions with hints like vimfx, surfingkeys, qutebrowser, vim easymotion etc and be just as fast as mouse without moving your hand away!

Yes but the implementation of the mouse is much simpler.

With hints there is no clear standard how it is done: what letters to use for hints? What about different keyboard layouts? How are they combined and prioritized? For selecting text do you use hints for every letter? word? what kind of word? Does the program even have the ability to distinguish words? What about keybindings consistency? What about the extra features that will be needed like switching scroll areas, using text selection hints or link following hints, which come naturally with the mouse?

And if you do drop the complexity for something simpler like vim without easymotion or navigating using navigation keys links/w3m style you end up either being slower or being very roundabout.

>But I still save time not moving my hand!

You save very little time if any at all; you save more time doing automations or making task specialized tools/interfaces.

The mouse is standard, simple and easy to learn and good tool for handling medium to large amounts of unstructured data, don't be afraid to use it.
