[lapis lava]

we didn't have sigma apple cars or whatever youngsters use these days...

@open pasture if there was iCar would you buy

[drifting carbon]

back in our days we used windows 7 with purble place

[paper gate]

@fallow drum stop yapping

[drifting carbon]

hol up ain't you nino berber

[winter girder]

Yop of 2037

[paper gate]

my feet are moldy

[fallow drum]

you will likely get a used car in all neighboring states around me for like 60% of the price of it originally and i’ve looked around in cali as well and it’s the same deal unless of course you mean a used car from the 1970s or something idk

[paper gate]

@open pasture

[lapis lava]

@paper gate hii

[open pasture]

I’m talking about tanks

[drifting carbon]

@paper gate likes to use windows 11 with recall

[open pasture]

buy a tank used

[paper gate]

@open pasture

[fallow drum]

used vs new is entirely preference anyways i’ve only had used obviously but if you have the money then a new car wouldn’t break the bank then that’s good

[empty storm]

last i checked i can get a 10 year old used car for like $5k and i dont think thats 60% of the new price

[fallow drum]

i hope to get there someday

[paper gate]

you won't

sorry

[open pasture]

yes

[drifting carbon]

whats the point of reacting blobcatcozy

[paper gate]

@open pasture your name is Gary

[drifting carbon]

i dont get it..

[open pasture]

you husk but its true

[bold adder]

how

[empty storm]

maybe im stupid idk but here in the middle of nowhere in tennessee you could probably get away with seeing some guy with an old car in his driveway that he doesnt use anymore but still runs great and buy it off him for like $1000 cash

[empty storm]

I might make a UPS for my router

[empty storm]

planning on maybe buying a new router because ours is a little old

[empty storm]

learning networking making me wanna get a better router

[urban elk]

I wish I could get a new router but it's like

complicated

cus the router is a GPON router

so like
I'd have to use it as an ONT box
and get a new router
and connect that router to the one we get
and configure it
etc etc

it's confusing

and annoying

[empty storm]

gross

[dusky forge]

Light

[urban elk]

yeah

horrible ISP

[empty storm]

spectrum does 99.9% of things horribly but they let me use any old normal router so i tolerate them

[strange dragon]

all of em do

[empty storm]

idk what to go for in terms of which router to get tho

[strange dragon]

get a linksys mx4200

Then install openwrt

Easy, fast, and it is supported

Also you get to learn a little about networking

sometimes you can find refurbished units for $30 a pair

[empty storm]

networking is my college major so i know a bit already ig but

fair

[keen junco]

@wide leaf haha just kidding i actually hate you a lot, so do me a favor and stop talking to me please you fucking loser

[empty storm]

idk how much i wanna experiment with that stuff at home though because i dont want to deal with headache whenever my parents have some sort of issue and only i know how to fix it

[strange dragon]

install pfsense in proxmox? :3

[strange dragon]

i mean if you set it up right the first time, there will not be issues

[empty storm]

i dont trust myself that much

[strange dragon]

It's easy

The default settings are mostly fine

it's not advanced networking theory

If you want multiple vlans and stuff, you can do silly complicated things, but it's super easy to set up everything on 1 network

[empty storm]

ig

[strange dragon]

There's a silly thing that you have to do to bypass the app requirements on the stock fw, so you don't NEED to install openwrt

[urban elk]

yeah so uh

[strange dragon]

But you can

[urban elk]

I don't think I'd be able to configure VoIP

but

at the same time

I don't think I'd need to

[strange dragon]

exactly

[urban elk]

could just let the GPON router handle that by itself

[strange dragon]

Yup

[urban elk]

while the actual main router
does the wifi and internet shit

(also stays in DMZ)

[strange dragon]

I don't even know what dmz does

I set up openwrt just fine

[urban elk]

basically exposes the device in question to the internet

entire device

all ports
everything

[strange dragon]

that sounds dangerous

[empty storm]

i do know somewhat how to setup vlans but the education system is ass and has to rely on monopolistic companies to get funding so i only know how to setup vlans on cisco ios

[safe moat]

[urban elk]

better than having CG-NAT

[strange dragon]

Openwrt is linux

[urban elk]

cus the GPON router would have it's own NAT

then the main router would have it's own NAT

which would be a big pain in the ass

so no thanks

[strange dragon]

if you know what a ssh is and how many pings you need to neofetch, you'll do fine

[urban elk]

ik what ssh is

and yeah that part I didn't get

[empty storm]

i think this is towards me not you tbf

[urban elk]

oh

[strange dragon]

it's to everyone

[empty storm]

because i was talking about getting a new router

[urban elk]

guh

[strange dragon]

The hardware in the linksys mx4200 is really good btw

for $15 a pop it's good, at least

[weak vale]

i really like the openwrt gui, has so many features that were new to me coming from an old router with consumer gui

[strange dragon]

https://openwrt.org/toh/linksys/mx4200_v1_and_v2

[urban elk]

my router has like

an old GUI

[last karma]

I hate cgnat

[urban elk]

at least in the "advanced admin page"
which is where you can do anything
standard admin page is locked to hell

BUT

the lock is client based

[strange dragon]

I am currently running https://freshtomato.org on my netgear r7000

[empty storm]

my current wireless router is a linksys but i have no idea which one

never rly looked

[urban elk]

which can be circumvented using a tampermonkey script

AND LIKE

IT'S A CLIENT BASED
REGION LOCK

[strange dragon]

I am stalling on switching to the mx4200 even though I have 4 of em

[strange dragon]

is ddwrt possible?

because fuck that

[urban elk]

that's literally

[strange dragon]

ARGENTINA LMAO

[urban elk]

yeah uh
current region is "COLOMBIA" and it's locked to hell

[strange dragon]

What model router

[urban elk]

lemme show

[rare trout]

Bro is fucking destroyed

[strange dragon]

the model and brand pls

[urban elk]

MitraStar GPT-2742GX4X5v6
has some MIPS processor
not a lot of RAM or storage
runs Linux 2.6

[empty storm]

mips is a funny sounding name

[strange dragon]

oh gods

[urban elk]

it's a CPU architecture

so yeah

[strange dragon]

vawwy is looking for a new router, but you NEED a new router

[urban elk]

yeah well I don't have enough money for an 800k router

[empty storm]

i only know mips processors for being in SGI computers back in the 90s

[urban elk]

this one might be like

shitty

but

[strange dragon]

800k what

[urban elk]

it has WiFi 6E

[strange dragon]

So?

[urban elk]

colombian peso

that's 200 USD

😭

[urban elk]

you think I could find a router better than this that isn't overly expensive?

(and that is worth the money too)

[strange dragon]

What the fuck $200

[urban elk]

if I'm getting a new router I want it to have

WiFi 6E 160MHz

cus this one doesn't have that

[strange dragon]

you don't need wifi 6

[urban elk]

why not

[strange dragon]

wifi 6 is barely supported by anything

[urban elk]

my laptop could use it

[strange dragon]

It can?

Neat

[urban elk]

mf I bought an Intel AX210

[strange dragon]

Have you ever used it at full capacity

[edgy ermine]

yo, what if after school tommorrow i sneak to the grocery store to buy a potato

then i make fries

[strange dragon]

Do you have 2gbps internet

[lavish schooner]

hhls

[urban elk]

most I've been able to use it was at WiFi 6 80MHz

[urban elk]

1Gbps internet

but uh

[edgy ermine]

wtf regular color has reverted

[lavish schooner]

sounds yum

but

[strange dragon]

Wifi 5 can do 1.2gbps

[lavish schooner]

is one potato enough

[strange dragon]

why use wifi 6

[lavish schooner]

how many potatoes

[lavish schooner]

can your budget take it

[strange dragon]

walmart has cheaper potatoes

[urban elk]

@strange dragon
this is WiFi 6 80MHz btw

[edgy ermine]

how tf am i supposed to hide these potatoes

[lavish schooner]

that looks more cost effective

[stark herald]

i have a bad feeling that ill die in my sleep probably brain fucking with me but saying here just in case gn

[lavish schooner]

hide from who

[edgy ermine]

walmart is farther away

[stark herald]

don't ping btw ill try sleeping

it's fine

[urban elk]

oh please I'm more likely to do that than you are
just go get some water

[edgy ermine]

yea walmart is 3 times as far away

there's no way i can sneak to walmart and sneak back without taking too much time

[urban elk]

@strange dragon

[empty storm]

10pm i open the door and the first thing i hear is my dad yapping at my dog

[edgy ermine]

im trying to make fries without my parents knowing

[lavish schooner]

you're gonna make fries at school?

[edgy ermine]

[lavish schooner]

[edgy ermine]

or... what if i just go to mcdonalds after school lmaooo

[edgy ermine]

no

they just dont like me eating before dinner

LOL

[strange dragon]

Why are you hiding the fact that you want to learn to cook from your parents

[lavish schooner]

not as satisfying as making them yourselves probably

[lavish schooner]

do you usually cook

[edgy ermine]

exactly

[strange dragon]

yeah just start cooking in the kitchen

[edgy ermine]

i have a whole air fryer

[edgy ermine]

yes

[lavish schooner]

ah okie

[strange dragon]

Just make food

[lavish schooner]

I should learn how to cook

[edgy ermine]

food is easy to cook

toss in the ingredients, turn on the fire

wait until it looks ready

done

[lavish schooner]

(he says, while knowing fully well he'll never try)

[strange dragon]

I made spaghetti and hash browns just now

[empty storm]

i have an air fryer but its one of those shittier ones that doubles as a bad toaster while not being a good air fryer either

[strange dragon]

very easy

I have an air fryer from the year of our big brother 1984

[empty storm]

mines pretty recent we just needed something that could do both because we dont have much kitchen space

[strange dragon]

it's a sharp r-8010

[topaz meteor]

You can make instant fruit smoothies by putting popsicles into a blender

[edgy ermine]

safeway is closer to home than mcdonalds

[fallow pawn]

https://tenor.com/view/yandere-tagged-knife-anime-gif-16524623

[strange dragon]

best air fryer

[edgy ermine]

that aint a fryer

[strange dragon]

yes it is

[empty storm]

that looks nice

[edgy ermine]

wait

[strange dragon]

it literally is the same as an air fryer on the inside

[edgy ermine]

that's not a microwave?

[strange dragon]

it is

[edgy ermine]

so

it cooks food with electromagnetic radiation

[strange dragon]

You know that an air fryr is just a convection oven right

[edgy ermine]

yes

[strange dragon]

Hold on

Lemme get my phone

[empty storm]

air fryers and microwaves are not the same though

[lavish schooner]

which isn't what a microwave does

[empty storm]

[urban elk]

[lavish schooner]

[empty storm]

its usually considered a more expensive cut

[edgy ermine]

it was fifty dollars

[lavish schooner]

is it worth the price

[lavish schooner]

wtf

[edgy ermine]

i'd say so

it was good

[lavish schooner]

and how much meat is there

[empty storm]

its something you only get on special occasions

[edgy ermine]

[lavish schooner]

mmm

[edgy ermine]

[lavish schooner]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HHLS

[placid cove]

I have like 30 bags of lentils.

[empty storm]

my parents just buy almond milk

[solemn plank]

Selfie!! touched up the picture a little

[empty storm]

is this an abstract painting

[strange dragon]

Soy milk is kinda veggie tasting when it's plain

[empty storm]

that makes sense

[strange dragon]

But you never drink it plain

[solemn plank]

used magic eraser

[empty storm]

i would probably not go for soy milk then

[empty storm]

unless its eggnog ig

i love eggnog

[strange dragon]

You add it to cereal or food or whatever and it's just like milk

Soy nog tastes like really thin eggnog

[edgy ermine]

egg noggin

[strange dragon]

If you add some soup thickeners, it tastes and feels exactly like eggnog.

[empty storm]

i see

[edgy ermine]

just thicken your soup by boiling it

[strange dragon]

But I want to add cream of tartar to my milk 😦

[edgy ermine]

cream of mushroom

[solemn plank]

magic eraser so good! makes the image looke much bvetter

[strange dragon]

Carboxymethylcellulose also works actually

[edgy ermine]

mushroom

[empty storm]

magic eraser good when i take a picture of my dog and i need to hide the contact info on her nametag

and nothing else

[junior ridge]

magic erase face

[strange dragon]

Idk if Chitosan works

Chitosan works on everything tho

[bold adder]

if i breed a cow and a goat together successfully what milk would i get

[empty storm]

coat milk

[strange dragon]

You can't do that

The chromosomes don't match

[empty storm]

i think it was just a silly question

not a real one

[strange dragon]

Okay

[junior ridge]

i think you can do it if you try hard enough...

[bold adder]

i will do it anyway

[strange dragon]

Well, if you do that, you'll either get cow or goat nipples on the animal

#Ventoy Security Concerns (please boost for visibility)

Ventoy is a popular utility for making USB drives containing multiple operating systems in the form of bootable image files. While very useful in theory, the source tree contains numerous binary blobs without source code. This issue has been brought up to the authors multiple times, have not been corrected, and have even gotten worse (more blobs have been added to the code over time). This is a potential malware vector, similar to the "test files" in the xz-utils backdoor catastrophe.

Recently the author has ignored a very lengthy thread raising security concerns because of these binary blobs. Given the amount of attention the thread has gotten, this seems strange, especially given that the authors have been active since then. https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/2795

Stranger yet still, a video by Veronica Explains (@vkc) on how to create bootable USB flash drives got flooded by comments heavily suggesting the use of Ventoy and even being somewhat accusing because Veronica didn't advertise Ventoy. This is... not anything I've seen users of ANY open-source project do, and it feels similar to the social engineering done against Lasse Collin that convinced him to add Jia Tan as a maintainer, thus compromising xz-utils. See the comments of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiSXClZauXA&t=3s

If you're using Ventoy, you may want to consider ceasing its use for the time being out of an abundance of caution. If you truly need its functionality, you might look into something like the IODD SSD Enclosure (https://www.iodd.shop/HDD/SSD-Enclosure) which can emulate an optical drive and allows you to select an ISO saved to the drive to boot from.

@edgy ermine what is your opinion on canary

This is an actual lie

[edgy ermine]

in what way

[urban elk]

@strange dragon you love

[strange dragon]

It was updated last week

[sharp dawn]

what do you think of it

[strange dragon]

Or last month, at least

[urban elk]

oh wait

OHH

OHHHH SHIT LMFAO

I REMEMBER

[strange dragon]

I think the dev is thinking "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

[urban elk]

it wasn't a file in my phone's storage

IT WAS THE FUCKING MICROSD CARD

AND I WAS USING MY PHONE AS A MICROSD CARD ADAPTER

[rare trout]

https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/2795

[urban elk]

😭

[lapis lava]

yapppp

[strange dragon]

Does the dev really need to remove them tho?

They work

[rare trout]

xz works

your point?

[strange dragon]

I mean, prove that the blobs are malicious

There's no alternative to the blobs, is there?

[rare trout]

you go an investigate xz with no prior knowledge of whats going on

[cosmic otter]

the point i keep seeing is that blobs can't be audited

[rare trout]

uh, building the code

[strange dragon]

Would be nice if we could do that

[urban elk]

@strange dragon funny thing
so what I had to do in order to get Windows 11 installed on the microSD card (and use my poco x3 nfc as an adapter)
was to literally
fucking
set the microSD card to use MBR
then install Windows 10
then overwrite the Windows 10 installation to Windows 11 and boom

[rare trout]

did you follow the xz drama

[cosmic otter]

we have no reason to believe (currently) that the blobs are malicious

[strange dragon]

I did follow the xz drama

The backdoor

[sharp dawn]

now we do

[rare trout]

its still weird af that the authors say nothing about this issue that has been broight up several times

[urban elk]

(also it's recommended to provide builds compiled in GitHub Actions and not compiled anywhere else for the sake of transparency)

[strange dragon]

The authors have jobs too

The main guy took a break last year

[rare trout]

april 2024

[strange dragon]

He's not back yet

[sharp dawn]

Mods, crush his skull.

[cosmic otter]

but i get the concern that not being able to reproduce anything or to audit the code could be an issue

[rare trout]

this is a concern because its happened before

this is widely used software

[sharp dawn]

Uhmmmmmm

[empty storm]

gwuh

[rare trout]

its like complaining that the TSA is more strict after 9/11

[strange dragon]

Yeah that is a concern. And it's also going to be a huge endeavor to replicate blobs

[sharp dawn]

:ten:

[strange dragon]

The TSA exists BECAUSE of 9/11

[lilac mesa]

what if we all like kiss

[cosmic otter]

tsa is a bad example bc they have not improved safety

[cobalt cedar]

sure

[rare trout]

depends what the blobs are exactly. they are getting them somewhere, they aren't just coded in binary by hand

[sharp dawn]

[rare trout]

ok but like on paper

[strange dragon]

The tsa actually made safety worse

#Ventoy Security Concerns (please boost for visibility)

Ventoy is a popular utility for making USB drives containing multiple operating systems in the form of bootable image files. While very useful in theory, the source tree contains numerous binary blobs without source code. This issue has been brought up to the authors multiple times, have not been corrected, and have even gotten worse (more blobs have been added to the code over time). This is a potential malware vector, similar to the "test files" in the xz-utils backdoor catastrophe.

Recently the author has ignored a very lengthy thread raising security concerns because of these binary blobs. Given the amount of attention the thread has gotten, this seems strange, especially given that the authors have been active since then. https://github.com/ventoy/Ventoy/issues/2795

Stranger yet still, a video by Veronica Explains (@vkc) on how to create bootable USB flash drives got flooded by comments heavily suggesting the use of Ventoy and even being somewhat accusing because Veronica didn't advertise Ventoy. This is... not anything I've seen users of ANY open-source project do, and it feels similar to the social engineering done against Lasse Collin that convinced him to add Jia Tan as a maintainer, thus compromising xz-utils. See the comments of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QiSXClZauXA&t=3s

If you're using Ventoy, you may want to consider ceasing its use for the time being out of an abundance of caution. If you truly need its functionality, you might look into something like the IODD SSD Enclosure (https://www.iodd.shop/HDD/SSD-Enclosure) which can emulate an optical drive and allows you to select an ISO saved to the drive to boot from.

Rule 13

Respect the Moderators (<@&1273266391449079858>). They are here to keep everything civil - help them out by opening a #📩-modmail when moderator attention is needed. Do not attempt to handle situations yourself ("mini-modding") or pick fights in chat with other members. Arguing about rules, or refusing to follow them when requested, will result in more serious chat restrictions.

One of em reboots when I take a flash photo

[empty storm]

i have a raspberry pi 3 thats basically never been used because i forgot to buy a good enough power adapter to run it and was too broke to buy one after

[strange dragon]

It's just 2 pins

5v and ground

5v 2A

[lapis lava]

yop

[strange dragon]

Isn't there a 5v line on molex adapters

[lapis lava]

so many services on that

tbh if it died i would move essential services to my pi3 until i find a solution

[empty storm]

this means nothing to me because every power adapter ive tried with it gives me a low voltage warning iirc

[empty storm]

havent messed with it in years though

[strange dragon]

No no just connect 5v directly to the pins

Don't use the USB port

USB port fragile and stupid/bad

[empty storm]

i am not going to figure that out atp i dont even know what to use it for now

[rapid river]

connect rpi to an alternating current it's 200% safe

at most id just run like a discord bot or smth on it idunno

What are they

You don't need WPA supplicant if you have ethernet

Logs? Why?

Logs kill the sdcard

You don't need logs, just change things until it works 🙂

What does rng do

Do the numbers really have to be random

You could just use 3

Do you have any cronjobs?

Journald is the one to disable if you actually don't care about logs at all
