I'm tired of having so much bloat on my phone. I am thinking of rooting, and like the idea of having better control of my phone. Is it worth the risk? If so, anyone care to explain how I can do so? All the tutorials I've seen want me to install cancerware.

Absolutely yes. Without root: android is a bot fucking net. A honeypot for google. In latest android versions it forces you to use google apps, you can't even remove them. So, with root you can securely remove Gappsl , you can use microG (fake google services), use iptables rules on apps (firewall), you can even install kali nethunter on it. Some autists here saying "don't use smart phone" which is nothing but cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.

<LET'S DO SOME INFOSEC WORK SHAZBOTS

This is a new series I am going to make based on the products collectively known as Automatic License Plate Readers (aka ALPRs). There is a lot of mystery and myth surrounding this technology as well as methods of effectively evading it, if any exist at all. Collectively I am confident we can find a solution to the Automated threat

>inb4 if you have nothing to hide you have nothing to fear

Fuck you.

>What is it?

"Typically, ALPR systems are comprised of high-speed cameras connected to computers that photograph every license plate that passes. The photo is converted to letters and numbers, which are attached to a time and location stamp, then uploaded to a central server. This allows police to identify and record the locations of vehicles in real time and also identify where those vehicles have been in the past. Using this information, police could establish driving patterns for individual cars. The type of data ALPRs collect, analyze, and access often depends on what kind of systems they use and how they combine the data."

>Why the concern?

Much like Stringrays (cell towerspoofing MITM devices used by LEO) a few years back, these devices are essentially unregulated. When used by private parties have been they have been able to scan up to 8k license plates in a single day, according to only one study. These databases are up for sale, much like cell location data. The data recorded includes GPS location, scan coordinates, and timestamp. Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

they are only in high visibility spots on the main street in my town. im guessing thats SOP. so good luck with any of that. i was thinking vaseline. you cant tell the camera is damaged by looking at it, so it would take a city worker to notice after a photo comes in and then do something about it. who knows? that whole process might just be automated, and they might not find out for awhile.

Okay, first of all, before you guys get your panties in a bunch and tell me that this isn't like the other topics, or whatever, I'm letting you know ahead of time that I am new here. I did lurk for a bit, and I found a few posts, and a thread or two that fell on similar lines. Plus, you can see it says Science Fiction right up at the top.

Hey, guys! What if, and hear me out, what if maybe the Singularity already happened and we are all being governed by an artificial intelligence in an Augmented Reality?! That could explain quite a bit, actually. Inconsistencies, and what-not…

The Singularity is maybe not happening right now - but, weirdly, we are in the "Age of Spiritual Machines" as predicted by Ray Kurzweil at nearly a perfect space on the timeline he laid out.

Kurzweil isn't right about a lot. He predicted that the doubling rate for semiconductors would increase instead of plateauing in the 2010's. His guesstimates put the cost of (again, his estimates) sufficient gross computing to equal to a human brain in degree to $1000 in 2019. I can't say anything with authority about how he came to his figures, but whatever he claims, it's very unlikely that you can get an equal amount of general computing power for that price IRL.

That said, he does get kudos for some of the concepts he outlined. The "Age of Spiritual Machines" began in 2018.

https://arxiv.org/pdf/1802.07740.pdf

These guys tried applying the complex pattern-discerning properties of the current raft of neural network tools to a specific task: understanding the actions of a separate program. They get moderately into detail into their methods, but the goal was to simulate the ability of humans and other very intelligent animals to develop a theory of mind(ToM) for outside entities based on an understanding of what is stimulating the entity and past reactions to stimulus. We use our ability to form a theory of mind for lots and lots of things, since our evolutionary background included a lot of social aggression in small groups where understanding how someone else would react to a situation gave strategic advantage. In humans, ToM is hypertrophied to the point that we assign mindedness to nearly any phenomena too complex to model directly. Anthropomorphization of the non-furry kind is what it's called when we treat something that isn't people like it is.

Dudes succeeded. Their Tomnet project is capable of developing independent models of behavior for multiple agents interacting in a simulation space. (Read the fucking paper, Shinji) It can handle multiple levels of complexity. It crrectly deduces rough statistical models for brownian/randomly-acting agenPost too long.

OP you have identified the Cartesian argument concerning solipsism.

Descates aside, I believe there can never be incontrovertible proof that the world is not an illusion or that other people really exist independently of an illusion, self directed or enforced by some third party.

It is ultimately a philosophical choice to decide whether the 'apparently' independent minds and forces in the world disobey you and cause you harm sometimes because you are self destructive, that the third party (god/ai) hates you sometimes or is capricious, or that there really are other imperfect minds out there acting independently of your own.

For more detailed investigations, please consult

Developmental psychology also examines this question through what is called "the no experiment" which typically occurs around the age of 2.

Example: Someone calls to a child, and for the first time the child says, "no" then watches their body to see if it obeys. When it doesn't move, their whole ontology is shifted to acknowledge their own agency as opposed to a former view that the whole of creation was their body/mind, supposedly.

Ultimately it is more interesting to me to consider for the first time humanity has stepped out of the shadow of it's AI overlord/god that controlled everything on a grand scale and can try the whole 'adult agency' thing for a bit.

But that said I am also tickled to consider the words of Morpheus from Deus Ex concerning humanity's need for judgment and approval. (Pic Related)

It takes a certain amount of courage to both be wrong if we are in a simulation, as you face the shame of being wrong, but it also is the only means by which a human being may exercise their will as an adult. One must ultimately realize that we each determine what is and is not, what should or should not be done for ourselves. Cribbing of of some other moral system is ultimately dependence regardless of the reality of the situation.

As such I choose to believe we are free because I choose to believe we are free. But in my made up story, we all get to be gods/adults and in the alternative what we do doesn't matter.

Sophistry perhaps, but as I said earlier the best I've got is a personal preference argument.

Minimalism is mostly for the braindead masses that got confused of all the shit nowadays.

If you want to pass your message today it has to be in a minimal design, making it seem a "heaven of relaxation" compared to the chaotic energy of everyday life.

I always thought of the whole concept like the memory vacations in total recall. Everything is shit but there is this little hole in reality that stands for you. Combine this with marketing/propaganda and you have the modern reality of safespaces and minimalistic digital design.

I think it is cyberpunk, but on the low life way, it's culture jamming in a way, a way to make you feel safe when everything is fucked up.

The rp aspect is more like taking a fishing trawler out to sea, then casting out a fishing rod you'd use from the edge of a small lake. You're still fishing, but you're going overboard with the aesthetic.

Delivering then.

I should add that Kotek also had a regular customer who would rarely touch him - if he did, it was very affectionate, otherwise he would pay just to flirt and compliment Kotek on his eyes.

That's what he hated most.

He could not activate his implant, because he wasn't supposed to be a fuck doll with that customer.

He could not decide not to serve him because of his pimp.

Shortly after fleeing, his own eyes would haunt him when he stared in a mirror. So, with his last bit of brouzouf, he checked into a street clinic for eye replacements that looked as robotic as possible.

With no brouzouf left, he hit rock bottom and started the Shadowrunner life style.

Read the books for CP2020 and Delta Green, never adopted the systems due to them not being very easy for new players to grasp, mostly in chargen and combat. That is the trick, even an experienced D&D player is going to take some time to warm to an entirely new system if it isn't easy to learn. Most people learned D&D first edition because they had been used to the autism that came before it and made D&D seem easy.

After trying dozens of systems I came down to one that would work for everything I wanted to run and that was GURPS. Nevermind the /tg/ memes, it has hands down one of the most easy to grasp chargens and utilizes dice that you can find in anyones game cabinet (3d6) without having to break out a bag of polyhedrals like some turbonerd.

Read the books, but use a system you like.

My story:

Last night, I uploaded in regards to the 2019 Christchurch Massacre the Facebook Live stream, the manifesto, and the PDF archived thread.

The Internet Archive removed the video of the 2019 Christchurch Massacure without notice. I emailed them asking why, and told them my intent to reupload. I did. When I woke up this morning, the video was taken down again. I discovered shortly after my account had been locked. I emailed a second time to inquire. Shortly after this email, I discovered that both the manifesto and the archived thread have been set to "required to log-in to view" and have been Geologically censored. The Metadata says France is the region it is not able to be viewed. This does not make sense.

I have sent three emails and not received a single reply. I decided to wait until now for a reply, because I expected now to be a reasonable deadline. They have not replied. As of now, the two remaining files are still censored, and the video is still deleted. I am still unable to log into my Internet Archive account. With this, I am hereby announcing a boycott of the Internet Archive until they stop this censorship!

Spread these flyers, I have contacted multiple media outlets about this censorship, as well as persons involved in high-tech cases such as the EFF whom I hope will side with me and help participate in this boycott. I hope to make a difference. I am but one man, and need help.

The URLs of the files that remain are here:

shazbot, OP had nothing to do with /pol/ and everything to do with a website claiming to archive the internet deleting something it arbitrarily decided was crossing the line.

Here's a beheading:

https://archive.org/details/KhashoggiBeheading2Oct2018

And another:

https://archive.org/details/ISISAlgeriansBeheadGourdelForSITE

You can find beheading videos a plenty on Archive.org, but the mere words of a man in New Zealand? Heaven forbid.

They've been cucked for several years at least. You used to be able to use web.archive.org without javascript enabled. And they also removed really old ass TOSEC stuff, like even really ancient/beta versions of Amiga Workbench and Kickstart roms that pretty much only have historical significance (because basically almost no software will run with those).

Anyway it's not too hard to find these things in other places, but that means we can't trust this so-called archive to actually do what it's supposed to. So we have to pick up the slack ourselves whenever we notice any discrepancies.

not that guy but Internet Archive claims to archive "the internet" not "the internet minus bits we don't like". Censoring stuff without making it clear that they censor things they don't like is essentially manipulating people.

Maybe the best place to post this.

I am interested in Kowloon Walled City. It is very hard to find more information than you find after a quick 5 minute search. I did find a book, "City of Darkness", on Soulseek that is very recommended. Anyone have information, redpills, picture dumps, etc?

I was there last year, they've turned it into a city park. Very pretty, and if you do get the chance to visit it it gives you a very good idea of just how small it was, the temple buildings in the middle are also original (i think) and you can see original foundations for the few buildings that actually had a foundation. They also have some documentaries running on a little TV that give really good oral history, and miniatures of the city in various stages of growth. It's IRL ancapistan and I agree with OP completely fascinating. Sorry I can't post photos, I got my phone stolen drinking (Remember kiddies, subway closes at night in Asia, don't pass out waiting for it to reopen at 6am)

Maybe try google maps of the park? I'm sure people posted photos and have those interviews online. Eitherway, there are tons of schway little alley ways of kowloon that feel just like the walled city. If you're a channer and want to go on a vacation I totally recommend you go to HK it's very cyber, inexpensive, and comfy

Naturally the hot spots are Sham Shui Po (Golden Arcade is schway and all but the real shit is outside in the streets surrounding the mall on weekend nights. Any kind of vendor you could imagine, aching to sell you what they know), Mong Kok (arcades, high rises and dense, packed shopping malls both outdoor and indoor), and Kowloon. Central is gentrified, castrated and docile. You may as well be in Ginza or SoHo it's so clean and palatable. Fucking boring. TST is getting to be the same way, although the Chungking Mansions still exist there, to my surprise. If you want some fun go ahead and stay there and talk to some people. Make friends with the Indians out front selling you a room, the African ladies outside the 7/11 selling you their bodies, and you're in for an incredible weekend. I could waste a lot of time in any of the neighborhoods and locations listed above.

Have you been outside the city itself? The New Territories are where it's at man. The infamous walled city was not entirely unique. Many "urban villages" exist as a holdover of Hakka forts and towns across South China. The most interesting, naturally, being in the city. The last one in Hong Kong city limits was demolished in 2016. I made my first visit just two months too slow to experience it. There are still some examples up in Shenzhen (the infamous Baishizhou) if you can get a visa. Commonwealth citizens can get a 72hr visa at the border iirc, but if youre american youll need to pay and apply in advance. Or make a friend in the Chungking Mansions who could help. Aside from the urban villages left over, all of the towns in the New Territories are generally neglected, dilapidated and low-life despite still benefiting from the massive GDP and population density. They are closer to how I feel the old Hong Kong was, they are grimier, less organized and more local. My two favorites were Tai Po, for its network of shopping streets and its night market, as well as its compact design. Sha Tin was also beautiful, if a bit more open and modern. Outside the towns there are all the hiking trails and shantytowns and abandoned villages your heart could desire.

I could go on about Hong Kong for a very long time. It's one of the best plaPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

ITT: Post reasons why we are already living in a cyberpunk world.

I often see users complaining that the world isn't /cyber/ enough, but people are already doing all the cool things your read and watch and consume. Just you're sitting inside browsing /cyber/ instead of being /cyber/.

Webms, GIFs, videos etc appreciated.

I'll start:

•Riot police/swat

•Megacorporations (Namely Google)

•For-profit healthcare and prisons

•Overpopulation

•Drones (agricultural drones especially)

•Drone-jammers

•Google assistant/Amazon Alexa (& Google home, Amazon echo)

•Great disparities in wealth

•Boston dynamics, etc robots

•Lack of free speech

•Nuclear bombs

•High depression rates

•Targeted advertising

•Instant access to porn, entertainment online (dopamine releasing content)

•Consumer society

•Pollution & global warming

So post the relevant excerpts instead of posting about the whole fucking report. This is a fucking stupid thread and you should feel bad.

As it is the entire "muh Russian hacking" angle is nonsensical bullshit. It's fabricated outrage to make the current administration look bad and help the Dems save face. Did the Russians influence the American elections? Yes, probably - but if you think that every country with a halfway-decent intel agency hasn't been fucking around in the election process of every single democracy for the past 80 years, you're a naive moron who doesn't understand politics at all. Watch some fucking Bezmenov - that's not just the KGB playbook, that's what everybody does now.
