[neat gull]

I’m tryna find a preserved version of the Silk Road, but that’s prob not ever gonna happen

Lmfao

[manic torrent]

So why not ask for that

[covert cradle]

That wouldn't even make sense to archive, that's a marketplace...

[neat gull]

It’s something people may want to visit so why not

[neat gull]

Idk asking for older tor versions seems easier

[covert cradle]

Bob is right, it doesn't make any sense

[neat gull]

it does make sense

[manic torrent]

Yes, but you don't know enough about what you're asking so it makes no sense.

[neat gull]

Tell me what u think I’m saying

I gotta reword

[covert cradle]

Just ask for the internet archive of Tor. Though like I said already, I doubt that exists

[neat gull]

I’ve been looking for almost an hour and yea I’m sure it doesn’t exist either

[manic torrent]

Someone would have to have saved a copy or some screenshots or etc from it - and they would have to have accessed it over tor at the time.

[neat gull]

There was a reddit thread in 2015 about being able to open .onion links on way back machine for like 2 min but ofc I’m onto nothing once again.

Ah I see

[manic torrent]

That doesn't help you at all. You want to see a service which is no longer operational

[neat gull]

Old YouTube is no longer operational

[covert cradle]

Silk Road is long long long dead

[neat gull]

True that

[manic torrent]

... And was publically available and using it and recording it wasn't evidence of anyone committing any crime.

[neat gull]

Lmao makes sense

closest thing I can actually find tho is going to “SilkRoadmarket.org” on waybackmach. From 2011 but it doesn’t seem credible cuz I don’t think that would just be floating on google would it? Expand my knowledge for me

[manic torrent]

I have no idea what that site is.

[covert cradle]

Probably one of the fake clearnet clones

It might visually look like it if that's all you care about

[neat gull]

Pretty much that

[neat gull]

Google is your best friend

[manic torrent]

Yeah but I also don't care. I suspect as jakene said.

[neat gull]

Well said Bob, well said 👍

Tor uses duck duck go?

“Darkmining bitcoin mining with stolen electricity” - the hidden wiki

^^ Okay this is NOT getting related to tech in some way, as per rule #9 so I’m gonna be a good person and stop talking

[manic torrent]

... I don't think you understand what tor is

[neat gull]

anon. browsing no?

[manic torrent]

... No. I mean, that's sort of a side effect, but that's not the point.

[neat gull]

partial credit

aldonist b4 u say something to me im here to learn

[graceful burrow]

Has tor been relevant at all in like
The last 7-8 years

[neat gull]

maybe

[covert cradle]

It's still the main place to buy drugs afaik. I wouldn't know anything about that though

[graceful burrow]

Have fun when the fbi takes it and it's just another of the billion honeypots

[neat gull]

couldnt hurt for tor to be a bit faster w the searching. its taking a bit long to load links

[graceful burrow]

Lmao

[neat gull]

thats prob for a reason tho

[manic torrent]

Again, you don't understand anything about what you are doing

[neat gull]

listen bob im here to learn

[graceful burrow]

Yeah
Tor wasn't made for the clearnet lmao

[covert cradle]

Tbf, that's always been happening. Even back in the silk road days, fake marketplaces and fake sellers were a risk

[graceful burrow]

Feels a useless risk to me
Just make a reddit post or something lmao

[manic torrent]

Yes but all the information you need is easily accessible

Asking google what tor is and how does it work and what is the history of it and then ... Reading that

[neat gull]

would u look at that, the first thing that came up when searching about tor being faster is a reddit thread abt the same thing

reddit is the goat

and i just got my answer

[neat gull]

sama reminds me of pumba for some reason. dont ask

Where did the drug thing come from

No idea

[covert cradle]

[neat gull]

I swear there was something about Coke in the song

There are mentions of drugs in it

I’m finally correct for once in my life

No

How does bro know where that’s from

“I know an Italian pizza when I see it” ahh

Speaking of Italy, when I visited there, I got pulled over by the police

was a random check, but that was a funny memory

They’re way too many tolls on the highway

And half of them don’t even work

Why is that considered good

Anyway, you threw me off with the “mate”

[full fossil]

any alternative suggestions

I'm sure there are 2280 to 2240 adaptors, but that would likely bring costs up to the same as just getting a 2280 to begin with

If you need more than 32gb of capacity, you should attempt to sell both kits and get a 2x24 or 2x32 kit

I'm not aware of one that has both

It does have a ethernet port, but its 1gigabit

You're asking for a schoolbus that is also an F1 car

Just use two NICs

[next pollen]

I only have two slots

One being occupied by my gpu

USB wireless adapter

[next pollen]

And sometimes ethernet isnt available

[next pollen]

Well i rather something better than that, i'll just buy a card that only has the wifi then

[graceful burrow]

Yeah the only valid solution then is usb wifi and pcie ethernet

[grim belfry]

Heck, there's even a bundle on amazon

[graceful burrow]

If you need both

[next pollen]

I'll just use the integrated port on the mobo then

But mostly i just wanted to know if they existed

They're no worse than an m.2 or pcie adapter

They dont

What @grim belfry said: most of the USB WiFi adapters out there are spoopy. Some (usually the name-brand ones that cost more than $15) work just as good as a dedicated PCIe WiFi card with external antennas.

B650-e f motherboard

[near nymph]

You have servers around the world?

[neon mesa]

It's just a hobby site not meant for production so i like to keep it self hosted

If i were to make a professional website I'd use a proper cloudflare cdn or something

Though i got this little server so i wanna have fun with it

[near nymph]

Isn't the point of a CDN is caching around the world for content to be delivered faster to the end user?

[neon mesa]

It just needs to deliver content, my website don't have that right now (aka useless)

[near nymph]

Oh

[neon mesa]

Flask's file handling is finnicky

[grim belfry]

[near nymph]

I don't think they know what they're doing...

[neon mesa]

Yes i don't

If i know i won't ask here

Isn't that kinda the point of a question

[grim belfry]

Your best bet is probably traffic control or something

[neon mesa]

Either way i may using the term wrong
I just need a way to get file contents in the form of easily accessible links

So that i can just drop it in the SRC tag

Rather than drop everything in flask static folder (mess)

Images are stored in SQL as blobs though i figure that won't be optimal for videos.

[lofty sleet]

hi

[neon mesa]

Images there are just thumbnails below 1M in size so i guess keeping it in database is the right choice

Still don't know how i would handle videos

[lofty sleet]

Yes

[neon mesa]

Right now I'm using GDrive as a placeholder just to see if the video player even works

[lofty sleet]

otherwise its not a "Network" per say

[grim belfry]

Use bunny.net or something:)

Alternatively, vimeo

[neon mesa]

I'll check it out.
If i can keep it local that'd be optimal though

Last resort would be to just use python os module

[restive lion]

Why not just let a preexisting tool handle your stuff, like nginx

Typically your reverse proxy sits in front of your app anyways

[neon mesa]

Because i didn't know about it kek.

[restive lion]

Nginx can take advantage of chunking your videos (assuming they're chunkable types like mp4)

[neon mesa]

They're all mp4s

[pallid falcon]

Nginx Bae

[restive lion]

Nginx is a good tool but it lacks a lot of qol

There's a fork I've been meaning to try by an ex nginx dev

Nginx is a web server/reverse proxy, not a framework

PCI actually sticked around past 2010 iirc

Wait that green one is AGP?

[graceful burrow]

Yes

[cobalt kindle]

It had a free Windows key atleast

🙏

[graceful burrow]

Don't really need one nowadays anyway

[cobalt kindle]

True

[graceful burrow]

And if it was pulled from a machine that was owned by a big business there's a nonzero chance it's revoked

[cobalt kindle]

None of those where I live

[neon mesa]

Kinda crazy to think that an once possibly a $1000 machine is like $0

[graceful burrow]

That's how tech advances

[cobalt kindle]

I got some other computers so I'm happy there was a few there

And the other ones are much newer

ahem

[frozen hound]

darn that green is sexy asf

and I thought I was a generic black pcb guy

[grim belfry]

I bet your motherboard doesn’t have PCI

[graceful burrow]

It doesn't and I'm extremely happy about it

[frozen hound]

found the board i think

[frozen hound]

uh, i think it does

[grim belfry]

Yes but that’s the intel version

[frozen hound]

hold on

[gilded quest]

Lga1700 with PCI?

[grim belfry]

Some Dell workstations also still have PCI

[grim belfry]

Yes, can get am4 too

[frozen hound]

yeah, I have two unused old dell poweredge with PCI

I think, so yesn't

[gilded quest]

Assuming they're all meant for oem usage?

[frozen hound]

this computer doesn't, yeah. But I do own a motherboard with pci

[grim belfry]

Nope the one pictured is retail

[frozen hound]

hey thats cool

[solemn axle]

I wanted to joke that i'm on this photo and i don't like it, but actually i use LGA1155

wait, is lga1150 haswell thus later

the numbering is confusing

[graceful burrow]

There's two versions of 1151

No they aren't compatible

Not without major bios hacks or some sketchy aliexpress board

[winged spire]

I thought you repurposed your closet for the printer at first
||image took a solid minute to download, holy fuck phones capture images in 4k now||

[jaunty compass]

You act surprised but enterprise systems and workstations are way more likely to have legacy features like that in case the client needs to use some random obscure PCI card for some edge case

[winged spire]

It is a closet

dowl replaced with steel pipe

I need to mount my pi somewhere better

[winged spire]

Replace with square tyres. I heard mythbusters proved they work better.

[eternal hearth]

[eager notch]

It already is off

[smoky badge]

take it off and put it back on

[bright steeple]

Have you tried updating it?

[smoky badge]

maybe the battery needs replaced

[full fossil]

what chipset is that?

i just discovered the world of android game emulators and its pretty sick

[graceful burrow]

Do you mean
Emulators on android
Or emulators that emulate android

[exotic wyvern]

i mean emulators on adroid

[graceful burrow]

Yeah it's sick
You can even hook up a controller

Bluetooth or even wired if you got a hub and your phone allows it

[exotic wyvern]

yeah, i just ordered one of ali express today lol

[graceful burrow]

Yeah I don't know any phone nowadays that can't like
Play at least ps1

Which means everything under as well

[exotic wyvern]

i tested it with PSP, nintendo DS, and sega saturn and all works really well

[potent raft]

Anyone heard of the Xiaomi redmi turbo 3?

Or iqoo z9 turbo

[graceful burrow]

I'm not too big a fan of touchscreen controls so I bought a dedicated emulation device
It's basically just a phone with a controller built in, retroid pocket 3+
Neat little thing

[potent raft]

It looks like a Nintendo switch lite

[graceful burrow]

Smaller

[exotic wyvern]

i spent $16 on the controller (including shipping)
most i can justify spending

[graceful burrow]

[turbid oriole]

games should simulate grenade fragments ngl

[graceful burrow]

Some do-ish

Most just do an orb of damage

Because realistically it's accurate enough for a game and so much less computationally expensive

[pliant leaf]

modern realistic tactical shooters sort of fake it

to actually simulate fragments you would need to add so many individual polygons to a grenade it would crash the entire game, so what they do is they take the irl probabilities of being hit by shrapnel at various ranges and just put those in

i think some even manage to calculate fragments passing through various materials

[quaint salmon]

guys what are some good mechanical keyboard companies? looking to get a new one for around the 75£ pricepoint. I understand that means i'll probably be limited in my options

I ain't tellin timezones to some rando tho, no offense

[rocky sable]

Oh I didn’t know

I thought there would be people from different parts of the world

[graceful burrow]

There are

I said predominantly not wholly

[harsh quartz]

I mean, there is, but it’s midday in North America, so that’s what your gonna get right now

[graceful burrow]

Yeah

[harsh quartz]

Ask in 12 hours and you’ll get the other side of the world

[rocky sable]

And what’s the date I wonder? Is it 23th or 24th

[fierce tinsel]

Ask in 12 it'll still be North Americans, just the ones that have weird hours :p

[rocky sable]

In the place I am is 1:18am 24th

[harsh quartz]

I mean, your not wrong, but there will be more of the incorrect countries as well

[fierce tinsel]

Oh, you guys in North America are still enjoying the sun

[fierce tinsel]

Not for long, rain is about to hit.. thank god.

Last week it was 40c with the Humidex.. unacceptable.

We haven’t see rain for a month

Is the Tesla cybertruck already on the roads of North America?

Aka

Fucking perfect weather

[fierce tinsel]

Perfect for me is ~22C, <60% humidy (less is better, but after 60% is gets too sticky), with a nice breeze.. then I shut the blinds and fire up some games or movies 😄

[lunar raptor]

I work in a corrugating plant and the temp regularly hits the mid and high 40s c and the humidity is like a tropical rain forest , I love it , it's about the only time my arthritis is bearable, even better when we have to work under the machine cleaning and maintaining it , then you're talking high 50s.

Wonder what could be the consequences

[craggy rose]

literaly downloading Clip studio paint Rn

[swift cargo]

Some countries have laws that forbid sharing pirate content online, torrent is sharing it to other people from your pc while you are downloading the file

[craggy rose]

Is it really enforced?

[swift cargo]

In Germany definitely

[manic torrent]

sporadically. and ... sort of.

[swift cargo]

In Russia probably no

[graceful burrow]

Torrenting isn't inherently pirating

[mint sandal]

@craggy rose read 5 years 250k

[swift cargo]

That's why I said pirate content

You can use torrent without worrying if you are sure that the content is not pirated

[craggy rose]

Read what?

[craggy rose]

Oh, that's interesting

[graceful burrow]

I be torrenting Linux isos

[mint sandal]

Five year prison sentences and a 250k fine is standard depending on how much they seed and share torrents

[swift cargo]

Put this person in jail now!

[craggy rose]

You get cought by being reported of smh?

[manic torrent]

I torrent boat plans, maps, cannon designs, letters of marque, etc

[mint sandal]

You get caught because traffic is monitored by your own isp

[graceful burrow]

You get caught because the copyright holder company subpoena's your isp

[craggy rose]

That's on the US, right

[graceful burrow]

Remember it's p2p

[mint sandal]

Yeah

[craggy rose]

Got it

[swift cargo]

Your provider can sell your torrent activity to the private investigators

[manic torrent]

it really isn't standard at all, that's prima facie fucking ridiculous

[mint sandal]

I know someone that got almost 100 months

[manic torrent]

I'm not saying it can't happen, but "standard" doesn't make sense

[craggy rose]

Well, I don't know the legislation in the usa, but here, they can only request such information if they already have enough evidence and a case

[manic torrent]

nope

[mint sandal]

Person I know was legitimately insane

[swift cargo]

Just use a good VPN if you want to do stuff

[craggy rose]

[mint sandal]

Like fuck did this dude go off the deep end

[craggy rose]

So you know the legislation in Brazil

That's quite impressive

[mint sandal]

Person I know got busted by the FBI for trying to solicit a hitman

[manic torrent]

it's not law enforcement, and it's not a request for information per se, it's a private agreement

[swift cargo]

USA🦅

[mint sandal]

This will also blow your damn mind he also somehow acquired ricin to aid in a murder he failed in

[graceful burrow]

Damn you got hella off topic

[wild drift]

Welp. There doesn't seem to be any even somewhat moderately populated A/V discord servers in existence so I found this one. Hopefully this will do lol

[mint sandal]

Not really he was computer engineer

[manic torrent]

have you tried turning it off and on again?

[wild drift]

I just want a discord server where people are talking about home theatre setups and shit. Why does it not exist 😭

[manic torrent]

because it's supremely boring

and would consist primarily of middle + aged men waving their proverbial around about how much they spent on bullshit and how the sound is fuller since they switched to wooden cables

[graceful burrow]

Unironically you'll find more conversations on reddit

[wild drift]

jeff rauseo and Shane Lee beg to differ with their 100K+ subscribers

[swift cargo]

People who can afford a good home theatre probably pay to get it done quickly and good

[manic torrent]

That isn't making your case 😄

[wild drift]

Fuck people who wave around how much money they spend. I have a cheap soundbar system and OLED TV. I just love the conversation around home theatre and 4K Blu-rays

Okay I'm sorry for saying oled. Wasn't tryna wave shit LMAOOO I

I shouldve left that out

[manic torrent]

... if you don't like that, then if you COULD find a HT discord it would not go well 😄

because you need to consider who cares enough about that to talk about it constantly.

[craggy rose]

Hmm

[wild drift]

All I'm saying is that there's a big community of people that love talking about it. Andrew Robinson is another great youtuber for it. I won't buy 99% of the stuff he talks about but it's incredibly interesting to watch.

[merry gull]

Y'all I need help making a decision for a motherboard - A620I is cheaper but people are saying to go B650I, what are the differences? I'm going to be running a R7 7700X and an RTX 3060 12GB, and I'll be using it for gaming and productivity work

[ebon lantern]

sorry what

[craggy rose]

That does not corroborate with real cases, but alright

[manic torrent]

yeah, and I find it interesting as well, but 100k subs is a niche as fuck yt channel 🙂

[wild drift]

???

[wild drift]

Huh

[merry gull]

chipset differences

[manic torrent]

It's relatively supremely boring - the rate of change and the scope means that the amount of useful conversation is extremely limited

[ebon lantern]

no im more concerned about the 7700x and 3060

[wild drift]

That's why I mentioned Andrew just now too. He has 400K and he primarily covers soundbars

[swift cargo]

Perfectly balanced combo

[manic torrent]

which is not "home theater"

[swift cargo]

No bottleneck whatsoever

[manic torrent]

... what IS a bottleneck, exactly.

[strange elk]

I need more of those. Love making it available on my server

[swift cargo]

Just joking man

[merry gull]

i got the card because it had pretty lights... im sorry

[manic torrent]

don't be sorry, pretty lights are awesome
