So a person who claimed to be a FB employee was posting on /r/sysadmin earlier saying someone pushed a BGP change that broke all their routes and locked them out of remote access to push a fix
That means someone had to go to at least one and possibly several datacenters to apply a fix directly
But then you get the story that their badge system was also down
Their BGP setup was definitely broken though, they stopped advertising all of their routes

actively tries to destroy society, interesting
golden gust
haven't they done studies about actually tying to actively like, radicalise people?

i mean people are good at that by themselves
golden gust
Yea, but these platforms intentionally aim to stir up the mess in the quest of earning profit off it
limber knotBOT
wasn't there a leak of facebook internals regaridng that recently?
golden gust
Theres been stuff going back years of them doing that type of shit iirc
magic river
Oh I had that BGP skynet tweet in my timeline just below where I stopped scrolling
mortal zinc
trying to get people hooked yeah
magic river
Didn't the whistleblower say they were basically doing studies that showed they were doing that but it also increased engagement so 🤑
They knew it was a problem, they didn't care
Although they only did the study after they released the thing, of course, that's how the tech industry works 😄

limber knotBOT
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-facebook-files-11631713039 is the one I was thinking of
vernal moth
Yes, Facebook is actively trying to destroy society
Their business model is evil by design
And over all the years, there were enough leaks and investigations to document that
magic river
Huh, no sources for this other than twitter grapevine but apparently they had a backup IRC server for if everything else went down but at some point moved it onto the same infra the BGP issue took out
golden gust
Literally.
The first fucking rule you learn when you first start toying with your own shit

The Facebook backup IRC thing is known
Like that they have that
Apperently every engineer needs to login once a year as a test
magic river
For a while today some of them were trying to coordinate via a discord server but it got leaked

Moving that to their own infra is stupid, just like the self hosted status page, but oh well
I wonder if they will be doing their own post mortem

A lot of domain lookup/purchase systems reported facebook.com was available to buy today because they use their own registrar and of course it was down too

Right, since it would have to go through their registrar to do so and... whoops

mortal zinc
Yes, Facebook is actively trying to destroy society
honestly, people do that well enough themselves... don't need any company's help 🙂 but in all seriousness, how does that compare to other social media companies, or are they all the same?
limber knotBOT
I mean, it's not really Facebook, it's the people on facebook that make it so destroying society is the most profitable and the society which rewards such behaviour in form of capitalism
who would've thought that free market capitalism wasn't a stable system... oh right, the guy who invented it thought of that 👀
golden gust
facebook chooses to actively encourage and exploit those activities, but, I mean, yet to hear of an alternative system 🤷♂️

golden gust
they do as little as they can to try to rat out the edge case ultra extremism that occurs on their platform

Any social media that has recommendations is to some extent doing the same thing
golden gust
they do fuck all about it until it hits that point
warm anchor
Man wiki social network sounds like a place for nerds 
golden gust
casual reminder that the 6th was organised on FB and twitter even moreso than it was on parler iirc
magic river
The recommendation system might have even started out as trying to be helpful but then it got A/B tested with the metric being engagement
golden gust
(Well, organised as much as you can organise a room of headless chickens, but, still)
magic river
Or in Facebook's case I'm pretty sure they hired psychologists to learn how to tune it to be more addictive
They didn't just stumble in to it due to poor metrics
magic river
It didn't seem to do anything when I turned it on

am not colorblind, just prefer those colors
it turns greens to blues and reds to oranges

it just aims to get rid of the most offending colors which people are blind to

ancient bolt
This new theme swaps colors like red and green across github.com for orange and blue
that's what github says
can confirm

Oh you have to go change your theme too
I figured turning the preview feature on would switch to the appropriate theme
golden gust
gg
magic river
The blue is nicer but the yellow is harsh
ancient bolt
yeah i like the blue but would prefer the red. They should just let you choose your preferred colors lol

Plus at this point I'm trained to look for that darker green to spot the part of a line that changed
golden gust
sometimes I question wether companies doing stuff to aid with disabilities actually speak to those with disabilities

or if they do and people with disabilities are just done with it all and are more than happy to even get minimal effort out of them
Well, I mean, discords thing is just to turn everything grey, which, idfk how that makes sense for anybody unless you're able to use light more for everything, which, I can't

and you mentioned river crabs, twitter is going there too
magic river
I'm sure some botnets use facebook for C&C too, yeah
Easier than trying to hide an IRC server
nimble depot
Now a days matrix is all the rage for C&C
I been monitoring a few of those for a while, they do a damn good job of hiding what's actually pulling the strings
I seen discord used as C&C for some malware too. It's actually a clever idea because Discord would not be suspicious unlike a random host in, let's say DPRK
magic river
Use multiple C&C mediums and have the bots themselves distribute the message between them
Now you have to find all of them and figure out which one it came from
nimble depot
that would be pretty hard to implement and make sure it is robust
I seen poor implementations where taking control over one bot lets me have full control over the entire thing
magic river
Signature verification and a counter should stop any hijacking or replay attacks
nimble depot
would be one mess to keep it in sync tho and keeping track of who has who to avoid broadcasting it to the entire thing over and over
and after all, everyone just skids mirai and calls it a day.
rich elbow
and updating medium support if you use exotic stuff like discord
it's not like IRC where u implement proto and ur done for good more or less lol
nimble depot
IRC has it's own issues too.
rich elbow
https, support for generic forum scripts like phpbb, vbul, xenforo, ... and have them "exchange private messages" on forums all over the internet
tho it might be difficult to scale
as bonus u have tons of dead forums on internet that could be used and abused

you can force the upgrade
Yeah if it's later this day not available I'll do it.
twin lagoon
it's not gonna be later this day
they're not releasing it every user within a day, the process takes weeks
if you want it today, or even this week, use the assistant
twin lagoon
i've been using it since yesterday
it's fine if you use startallback otherwise the taskbar is bad
mental meadow
I've been using it for 5 days now :3
twin lagoon
i want my taskbar to be usable and not take up twice as much space
mossy vessel
If you want it to be looking like on a beloved macos environment, you can just say so
twin lagoon
i don't want a macos dock
mossy vessel
Yes you want
mossy vessel
Looking fine so far on my surface, but I can imagine it scaling horribly on any 4k monitor if you have a dozen of icons there
twin lagoon
i guess i can do this which is semi cursed
serene bolt
the irony is that I bought startisback for windows 8 back when the start menu sucked, windows 10 didn't need it, and now startallback exists for the unfinished 11 taskbar :P
twin lagoon
although i kinda dig it
warm anchor
can I still move it to the side?
serene bolt
yeah you can left align it
warm anchor
(yes I use task bar on my right corner instead of bottom)
serene bolt
oh
warm anchor
wut
serene bolt
you mean like that
warm anchor
only left??
serene bolt
no you can't
wispy blade
get fucked etern
serene bolt
they got rid of taskbar positioning
i meant you can left align the icons on the taskbar
warm anchor
wtf
twin lagoon
taskbar on the side is fucking disgusting
warm anchor
ok not updating
serene bolt
the taskbar in 11 is literally a downgrade from 10 in many ways
it looks nice
but that's about it
twin lagoon
that basically sums up the entire w11 experience
serene bolt
I hate taskbars that are like that but I know quite a few people use it like that, which is even more surprising that they just axed it entirely
warm anchor
I been using it like this since forever
serene bolt
idk they got rid of a lot of taskbar features
don't worry I'm sure windows 11 spring update or fall update next year will fix it
eventually ™️
warm anchor

do you have more than 1 monitor
warm anchor
yes lol
twin lagoon
wtf how do you not get annoyed by a massive fuckoff line betwen your monitors
silver nexus
happy windows 11 day!
twin lagoon
although
i could probably live with a side taskbar on my second monitor
right now it's split
warm anchor
oh I have it auto hidden
when not in use michael
do they take away that feature too??
serene bolt
not sure about that one
warm anchor
This is a sad news
serene bolt
my largest issue with the taskbar is no clock on non primary display
fullscreen game? now you can't see the time
wispy blade
eternity sometimes i feel like you type english like you'd type french, grammar wise

while it's best practice to not blame people for things like this (see aviation), im sure facebook would fire for less lol
magic river
But yeah, it turns out if Facebook goes down (at least this way) all of their apps and any app using their SDK spams login attempts which by itself is a lot of DNS traffic but is kind of worse since for the DNS server it has to wait for all of those requests to time out

It's not that their doors lock dependent on FB being up, it's probably more like one of their internal services is a common access system that you scan your ID to get into a room
So they're locked always, you scan, it unlocks for like 4 seconds, you go in and it relocks
My bank had those everywhere, and yes, you couldn't get into rooms if that system went down

Also
Day #1 of me hoping for Apple to release a software fix for the jelly issue on the iPad mini 6 screen

why would the aspect ratio matter in the age of responsive apps? 😅
wispy blade
that's literally 3:2
limber knotBOT
or does crapple not do responsive stuff 👀
plucky sparrow
I actually do not know what the aspect ratio is
But it’s different from any other iPad
Which means that most apps have an ugly black border on each side
limber knotBOT
wait they have letterboxing?!?
wtf apple lol
who at apple thought going back to the 2000s was the right way to do it xD
little frost
well the thing with apple is they only have like one aspect ratio so there's no point in making them dynamic
...until they had more than one
little frost
like every ipad has caused letterboxing
compare with android where you have to support literally every aspect ratio that could even exist
limber knotBOT
I mean that is nothing new, we had to deal with that on desktops for decades now lol

ATs, mojmap, and an effort to write patches that are minimal diff and try to avoid the kind of changes that cause conflicts could make updating to snapshots a possibility
Well, I could see doing it with CraftBukkit anyway
Spigot and especially Paper do some much more invasive changes
It'd probably be a full time job to keep even CraftBukkit up with snapshots though
It was a full time job for Dinnerbone to do it for betas back in the day :p
ancient bolt
doing it iteratively would help, handle the changes in smaller chunks
mojmap will also help a lot
right now spigot tooling both cannot be trusted and is not open at all, so we likely won't be able to do any of that as long as we're based on spigot
best we could do is do the spigot update ourselves guessing how md_5 would handle the situations which come up
but then that means when spigot does release, we gotta go back and remember to check everywhere to see how wrong we were
still it could be done. I just don't think anyone wants to go through all of that dealing with anything spigot
once it's all on paper I have no doubt people will be lining up to work on that
