  • Not quite the same but you might like the Linux from Nothing series, building out a Linux install from first principles.

    Obviously lots of linux youtubers have done videos on linux from scratch too but the step by step nature is pretty enjoyable to watch.

  • It's a clever solution but I did see one recently that IMO was more elegant for noscript users. I can't remember the name but it would create a dummy link that human users won't touch, but webcrawlers will naturally navigate into, but then generates an infinitely deep tree of super basic HTML to force bots into endlessly trawling a cheap-to-serve portion of your webserver instead of something heavier. Might have even integrated with fail2ban to pick out obvious bots and keep them off your network for good.

  • Usually they give users points of credit to download more torrents: Users that don't seed will burn through their download credits and won't be able to download.

    Other trackers will also give you points for every hour you seed a torrent (usually X points per gigabyte per hour) which encourages seeding even if the given file isn't as popular, or so popular that other seeders choke you out of uploading to other users.

  • Does this account for the fact that it's a username password combo that makes it compromised? Just because larry_arsewipe@hotsnail.org used hunter2 as his password and got it leaked doesn't mean my credentials are at risk even if i used the same password.

    I guess even then we're meant to be using random strings etc but that's pretty difficult when most people on the internet are old enough to remember when password managers that automatically generated secure passwords weren't a thing. When you're told to never write down a password and had to remember it manually you just created a universal password that you'd jam into everything else.

  • Before now I was on the sunk cost fallacy of not wanting to teach my extended family how to use Jellyfin instead of plex but after this I'm already mid-way through setting up a Jellyfin docker container on my server and I only found out an hour ago

  • Fuck this. What the absolute fuck lmao they just decided to kneecap their entire business model.

    I was even going to get a lifetime subscription later this year when they usually put the price down. Not anymore

  • Hector and others were really bad losses for the Rust kernel devs but Lina? That's catastrophic. She was a figurehead in getting apple silicon working so well on Linux that even Linus moved his development machine to an M1 Macbook.

    Linus has royally fucked it with how long he sat on the side of this. Im so sorry to Lina and others who have been burned by this community.

  • True, any software can be vulnerable to attack.

    but the difference is a technical team of software developers can mitigate an attack and patch it. This guy has no tech support than the AI that sold him the faulty code that likely assumed he did the proper hardening of his environment (which he did not).

    Openly admitting you programmed anything with AI only is admitting you haven't done the basic steps to protecting yourself or your customers.

  • AI is yet another technology that enables morons to think they can cut out the middleman of programming staff, only to very quickly realise that we're more than just monkeys with typewriters.
