As I'm sure many here have noticed, at some point over the last decade, Firefox has become what anons used to mock when they referred to Internet Explorer. How did this happen? I suppose it's like the cliche about how one becomes bankrupt… very slowly, then all at once. Rather then continue the circle jerk about whether Firefox is the patrician's choice or just a pleb tier meme, let's just accept that for the sake of argument that it is a useful piece of software and that, as a product of the Mozilla foundation, it's configuration is perhaps more susceptible to public outcry then an explicitly for profit Microsoft or Google (INB4 Chrome flame wars) product. So, how could public outcry be leveraged against some of the more "problematic" features of Firefox? I'm not completely sure and would like to see if any anons would like to brainstorm regarding this ITT.

I'll start. One of the more annoying features of Firefox, out of the box, is that there is an ever changing array of about:config settings that a user, who doesn't want to be a slave to a botnet, might want to adjust. There is the telemetry problem and also the fact that it's security features rely on a seemingly ever expanding array of phone homes to various servers that the end user does not, out of the box, have the ability to authorize. The same goes for security features. I have noticed that, if one opens and closes Firefox regularly, nearly 1/4 MB can be used re-opening the browser, as it phones home to Mozilla and Google, etc. Now, in current year, one might say that, though there might be an argument to made over what degree of control an end user should have out of the box, 1/4 MB is an inconsequential amount of data to worry about in regards to an "unlimited" data plan and shouldn't be at issue. But, consider the following. If a poor person, living in the third world, had to put up with just a few MB a day, over the course of a year that could lead to many an overage charge on both shit hole country tier landline and mobile data plans. So, would it be worth it to try and start a public outcry regarding this implementation of botnet by using this as an angle of attack? Hashtag, "Mozilla hates poor people" for instance? Street shitters rise up? Try and get a Greta Thunberg to demand a consistent dark mode because of electric use and muh climate change? Explain how only paying lip service to things likePost too long.

Have you looked into sourcing a replacement part? If that EEPROM is too obscure, you might have some luck salvaging one from some other broken model. It seems to have been a pretty popular calculator, so perhaps it's not too hard to find.

On the Cisco Cert what is changing is that you only have to take Two Tests to get your CCNP, instead of three.

The First test towards your CCNP now counts as the Written test towards your CCIE so you can take the Lab without getting your full CCNP.

They reworked the naming and the content of many of the exams.

There is now a strong emphasis on Automation(Python, Ansible, REST API and etc).

Overall it doesn't strike me a bad thing.

According to William Lyne, in his book "Pentagon Aliens", the Nazis blackmailed the US into a secret armistice by threatening to detonate radioactive bombs over American cities and make them uninhabitable for decades. In the deal the dirty bombs were disabled and the western front was collapsed so that Patton could capture all the secret weapon technologies before the Soviets. Patton was 187'd, because he was against keeping everything secret. Hitler was allowed to escape. Irrational hatred does not explain why Eisenhower starved or killed by exposure 1.5 million captured Germans. These men must have have built or operated technology that the Cabal has been keeping secret to this day. Eisenhower never visited Germany as POTUS. Anti-American demonstrations in West Germany would have been too much of a cold war embarrassment. West Germans never forgave Eisenhower, but went crazy for JFK, for they wished to thank America for delivering their post war prosperity.

In the 1890's, a socialite lady witnessed Tesla's "metallic plate suspensions", meaning he knew about the anti-gravity properties of coil windings. So, it is very possible that Tesla flew before the Wright Brothers! This electrical means of propulsion was later refined in the 1930's by German scientists visiting our desert southwest. By the end of the war, there were already many types of Nazi anti-gravity craft in operation, with the coil driving Tesla alternators powered by both conventional and exotic means.

Gravity is a human confabulation for the predominant mover of the universe is the electric charge. The actual model of the solar system is that of a gigantic atom where the orbital distance of a planet from the sun is related to its electrical charge. According to Velikovski, when Venus had its close encounter with the Earth, an electrical arc between the two planets enlarged the Earth's orbit, changing the ancient 360 day year to 365.25 days. The invention of geometry predates the encounter so there are 360 degrees in a circle. Venus's odyssey ended with its present circular orbit. Velikovski studied ancient calendars where he discovered a change in the length of the year which is the basis of his hypothesis.

Basically, i have come up with a new way to run society, one where it benefits the collective of the species and all other intelligent life in the universe and also improvise it and ensures its survival. The first stage of this society is to implement eugenics so that the weak and stupid will not pass on their offspring and the social and economic classes will be slowly abolished, The social and economic classes will not be completely abolished straight away, it will be broken down overtime as the population is told about the good of the species, and besides it cannot be abolished straight away anyway because the weak and stupid must be dealt with first. the goal is to only have one class, the strong and intelligent. the economy will be mixed with capitalistic and socialistic elements until we have reached a post scarcity society where communism can only work, this type of communism will only be economical as my social policies are more spartanist where every citizen is disciplined and told to self-improve and improve their fellow species and all other intelligent species, basically stage one of this system is to ensure that within a few generations the whole population will have the endurance/body of an Olympian, the intelligence of a genius and the discipline of a spartan and later on genetic engineering will be implemented to further improve ourselves, also fossil fuels will be gradually replaced with alternatives such as nuclear fission nuclear fusion and renewable energy.

If there is other intelligent life in the universe and your idea really is effective, I'm sure you're the first person to have come up with it.

Of course you're a damn egalitarian… Every time.

Careful now, that sounds pretty genocidal.

>this type of communism will only be economical as my social policies are more spartanist where every citizen is disciplined and told to self-improve and improve

That sort of social goal is very much a part of regular communism, I hate to break it to you. It turns out that most people typically have no motivation to do those things if there's nothing material to gain from it, except within those narrow avenues of improvement which appeal to them as a unique individual.

This sounds like something Xen is designed to deal with, do live migration of virtual machines based on computational demands.

You can set up a VM on you personal computer and transfer it over to a server rack in a closet once it starts heating up.

Perhaps but you might save on power bills in the long run by having it all run on a single powerful computer. Depends on the price of electricity where you live.

Plus getting started with VMs only takes a few hours of study and practice compared to the hassle of setting up computers and a home network.

>you don't modify the source very often

this proves the opposite of what you think. The less often I have to dig into the source, the less time I want to waste remembering how it works.

No, you'd have to be completely out of touch with reality and common sense to arrive to that conclusion.

The more often you have to fuck around with the source to get something to work, the more time you waste… well… actually fucking around with the source.

Besides, Suckless software isn't even any easier to understand than most other software. Retards on these boards only think it is because it 's small, but if you actually bothered reading the code, you'd see it's a complete mess, especially dwm, no to mention littered with horrendous Cnile-tier practices such as overly terse variable naming, "clever" tricks with pointers to save lines, and so on.

You don't really have any idea what you're talking about, and pretending you tinker with source code of the software you use on a regular basis isn't a good way to pretend otherwise. And if you really do, well, your time has quite limited value.

Suppose I wanted to make a single modification to the code. If I use st, that modification is over and done with in half an hour. If I use xterm, I'm looking at several hours. Whichever I choose, I'm stuck with it as long as I want that modification in my terminal. Suppose a year or two later I want to make another change. Anything I learned about the xterm source code is now forgotten, so I'd be starting over from scratch.

>muh terse variable names and pointers

I guess it makes me "senile" that I can remember what a variable does without the name reminding me, and that I can figure out where a pointer dereference goes? The suckless people aren't perfect, but they mainly write idiomatic c code, which is the easiest kind to read. In this case, less source code to read and understand really is where the value lies.

Its a shitty closed-source browser, why there are people that use it?

Don't ask me, I don't. Maybe I should set IE6 as my user agent though (on my Linux machines).

Its not lunacy when other third parties can pluck that data from your browser in near real-time as you browse the web. How do you think those ad companies get so God damn rich? Of-course these caches that hold users' data is solicited and spied on as you crawl the web.

I sometimes use it at work, since some of the company' software was made to work just with Internet Explorer, and while it might work with some other browsers, if there is a problem they will just tell you to use IE. Now why they made it for IE, and not for Chrome or some other browser? You might as well ask why they use, Windows, Office, Skype for Business and other MS software.

With the vanwatech DDOS mitigation and captcha, how are you guys handing watching/downloading 8kun threads and content?

Custom client. The hidden service also doesn't have DDOS protection (unnecessary there) so everything can be accessed automatically there. The only problem is 8chan's retarded habit to randomly nuke the JSON API entries of threads. Check >>281 for instance. Thread is fine, JSON 404s. There isn't even a /sudo/ to yell at Codemonkey for this.

Wait wget works well, but it seems think the verification is disabled or less aggressive rn.

It's disabled right now according to chodemonkey's shitter. But like I said above, just hook wget up to Tor's SOCKS proxy and use the hidden service.

what's the best imageboard software? I like TinyIB but nothing works with my server

Speaking of which, how is your DDOS protection, if any?

Well what IBs do we have?

<Old guard PHP stuff

>Futaba Script

>Futallaby and descendants

>Tinyboard/NPF Chan/Infinity/OpenIB family

You probably don't want to use one of those, they tend to have horrible code, but on the other hand they are the comfiest IBs from the user perspective, they have the good old UI anons have known and loved for years.

<More modern projects

>Lynxchan

>JSChan

>Meguca

Lynxchan is widely used, so you'll probably have the best support for it. It is technologically superior but I don't really like it. It also lacks some features older IBs have. It uses node/MongoDB so it should be distributable and scalable, but according to many it's not as efficient as it could be.

JsChan is a relatively new project I don't know much about, I think fatchan was using it.

Meguca is, well, meguca. The release version is the easiest thing ever to set up, just clone the repo docker-compose. It really comes down to whether you like liveboards or not.

Which ones did I forget?

Damn I wanted to say that. But it pretty much has everything you really need. Wonder how it would fare with more than 5 users.
