So cianiggers, because of the we follow you part, hacked the one systemd free distro that is noob friendly.

>so install gentoo

Indeed but I am shocked no one is reporting on this yet. cianiggers hacked themselves and put that page up to rally those not wanting the botnet onto gopher. Now I haven't investigated gopher and have no opinion on it for now. But hacking devuan is a dick move since they only pander to a smaller audience then debian, which contains systemdick. If script kiddies, focus your energy on productive matters. If cianiggers, then fuck you and delete yourselves.

If you are looking for a gopher client to compile from source use http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/gopher/gopher_3.0.13.tar.gz or https://github.com/aeonofdiscord/ferret .

Also I did some researching https://archive.fo/NpRSE

>Gopher is designed to function and to appear much like a mountable read-only global network file system (and software, such as gopherfs, is available that can actually mount a Gopher server as a FUSE resource). At a minimum, whatever a person can do with data files on a CD-ROM, one can do on Gopher.

>Here, the client has established a TCP connection with the server on port 70, the standard gopher port. The client then sends a string followed by a carriage return followed by a line feed (a "CR + LF" sequence). This is the selector, which identifies the document to be retrieved. If the item selector were an empty line, the default directory would be selected. The server then replies with the requested item and closes the connection. According to the protocol, before the connection is closed, the server should send a full-stop (i.e., a period character) on a line by itself.

So its fucking botnet. The example there is even the CIA worldfact book for ironies sake

They actually literally seriously just recreated the devuan site in gopher though. Open up your terminal and type "lynx gopher://www.devuan.org" and you'll see that it's there.

If you had installed palemoon you could disable all logging and caches and or force all caches to be memory only. You can disable hardware acceleration in firefox as well as its derrivates but there's no reason to unless you don't have a GPU or its drivers are buggy/proprietary.

>the drop in kernel performance going from 4 -> 5 can not be explained by spectre/meltdown mitigations, 4 has them too.

If you had been using a certain patchset you would get 0% performance impact by spectre/meltdown. Or so I hear. But yea there is a drop in performance going from 4 -> 5 that isn't caused by specter/meltdown. Its called the kernel psuedo devs changing internal syscalls for zero reason. In the past they changed these to improve them or other calls calling them for performance and or bug fixing.

Now they just randomize the internal kernel syscalls for literally zero reason besides making work for themselves to justify the donations/payments they get. With rare exceptions like what linus used to do.

Interestingly, both are prime numbers. It is a pretty magical date.

IRC Logs and mailing lists during the time of the hack show the devs have no idea whats going on and they are trying to figure out which one of the team is playing the joke.

KatolaZ buZz: I bad one, since none of the devs knows about it... 19:35

Then a fun convo about how broken their key management system is and the manner in how they likely got hacked. Then it turned into KatolaZ (a dev) playing it off as if it were an april fools joke, after another user found it was a unix timestamp.

They regained control to the servers, put the regular site back up... They still have no idea who dunnit, and suspect their own. If they dont make an official statement one way or another its gonna look like they still have a bad actor on their team or someone is backdoored.

IMO a dev tried to play a prank, everyone stated pretty clearly it was in bad taste before the dev got to say 'April fools', and now that dev is playing along... Autistic behavior

If it is a joke, there is no way to verify their keyring and reestablish security. There is nothing on their website or twitter currently to suggest it was a prank, or address the hack.

I currently use it as a daily runner. Was using Parabola (arch) except it would break if more than a few weeks went between updates, and updates would required manual intervention multiple times a year. Spent a lot longer trying to get Gentoo to work right (which I used for ~2 years) before throwing in the towel. Might be fine choices for a server distro but as a daily no good for me.

Most of my servers have been running on *BSD and as I get more used to it the more I feel I can move over as my daily. Until then this is the only project I have found that JustWerks, systemd free, and is completely free(asinfreedom). Up until this misstep I had faith.

Following is on a personal note after having tried to fix things
behind
curtains and to get something "official" out.

First things first and because I think somebody has to say it in
the
right tone the situation merits:
I am really sorry for the mess of today (+/- 13 hours because
timezones)
and I hope it does not impact too negatively the trust of users in
the
project in the long-run.

Further clarifying things: **to my knowledge**(*) nothing has been
compromised, but it is indeed a very elaborated prank.

I hope this helps reassure those who are rightfully concerned,
disappointed or disgusted by the whole thing and that a more
sensible
"official"/definitive/detailed announcement comes soon.

(*): **to my knowledge** means that I am still trusting the
communications and the project, even if I decided keep in place
the
temporarily disconnect of my systems from devuan's infra.

As promised, on Apr. 1st 2019 at 1:04:19pm UTC the Devuan world
started to make sense again. Please check:

http://www.devuan.org
http://git.devuan.org
http://bugs.devuan.org
http://pkginfo.devuan.org
http://files.devuan.org
http://popcon.devuan.org
=20
The gopherholes will remain online for the time being. The "pwned"
page is still available at http://www.devuan.org/pwned.html.

Again and to clarify once and for all: this was just an April fool. No
machine was compromised. No content was moved, deleted, or tampered
with in any way. Noone got access to the Devuan infra. No package or
mirror was affected.=20

I apologise if somebody thought the joke stretched a bit too far: I am
responsible for that. I thought all the clues were clear enough, but
apparently they were not and some people got too stressed about it. I
am sincerely sorry about that.

Pranks have always been an essential part of the hacker culture, and
like it or not, Devuan has been brought to all of us by a bunch of
passionate hackers working long nights, not by a team of serious white
collars in suit and scarf doing 9-to-5.

I will definitely make sure I will not make such a mistake again in
the future.

yeah, dont stop to laugh.

I would have not appologized. Weakling. Hold your ground if it was a joke. Not ur prob if ppl dont see the joke.

I take my LARPing very seriously. Pranks like this are a terrible betrayal.


equivalent of being in an airport and shouting "THERE IS A BOMB!

> just kidding".

Couldn't agree more.

>>1048229

The problem is there is no way to conclude if this was a joke or not. Saying it was a joke by a lonewolf dev is easier and better PR than to admit you got compromised, repos and all.

>>1048231

This is more like bringing all the actual parts, putting one together, starting the timer, and disarming it right before the timer hits 0 then saying "Just kidding".

Meh, I thought it was fine. The Twitter posts gave it away.

Devuan isn't a large enough distro like Debian that they should really care about seriousness. The packages weren't affected by the joke either.

It's like someone saying hello customers todays flight to the moon is boarding at gate 3 and then a few idiots think aliens have taken over the air traffic control.


 No.1048250

>>1048247

Nope. All of the actual parts of the hack were in place as if a dev had their computer hijacked. Other devs weren't even in on it and were locked out of infa.

Its like announcing aliens crashed landed, then the next day claiming it was really a weather balloon.

April Fools is dumb but I wouldn't mind it so much, but this bitch fight is just pathetic. The real immaturity is in the reaction. If this is how they react to something so trivial, how will they handle SJW entryism or glownigger infiltration? Yeah, no thanks.

Hard to say this was an okay move, considering it highlighted their issues with security and key management.

>react to something so trivial

how is the security of your packages trivial? You are trusting a group of people to compile the correct code. Linux Mint got hacked awhile ago and all their ISOs had a back door. What part of having a hacked/malicious OS trivial to you?

Thats like saying you don't lock your doors, anyone is allowed in your house while your gone, and if they take something it's okay because they'll enjoy it more. Have some respect anon.

OK fuck this shit, I’m uninstalling Devuan and switching to OpenBSD tomorrow. Who thought this was OK?

Now I have to go and change all my passwords and shit too. Fucking nigger ass devs. It’s my fault for believing that there was still hope for Linux though.

Does this raise their credibility, since they're debilitatingly autistic?


 No.1048370

That’s the thing, could be a hack by a disgruntled dev masked as a joke. There’s just no way to be sure.

this

devuan is perma-fucked and to be relegated as nothing more than a joke security wise.

>>1048246

>Devuan isn't a large enough distro like Debian

If debian or redhat did this the stock market would crash as all the tech companies around the world shit themselves and went into maximum panic mode. They both would likely be sued into oblivion and possibly charged with crimes. I don't know what crimes but jews loose billions of dollars because of a prank someone is going to jail.


 No.1048792

>>1048783

maybe their site, but the OS is fine.


 No.1048816

>>1048783

This really has nothing to do with the OS. 99% of the packages are just mirrored from Debian's repos. But yeah, both the "hack" and the reaction to it are fucking stupid. This is probably going to hurt them. I've been using Devuan for a few years now as a DD on both my work laptop and desktop and I've never had a problem. Really wish they hadn't done this.


 No.1048853

>>1048363

When libreboot supports Open(/*)BSD with FDE, I'm in. I dont think there is a better alternative to Devuan for low powered devices (x200) on the JustWorks(tm) shelf, that also respects your freedom.

No, the joke is never too far, there are only degrees of tastelessness, and nobody was under threat. In fact the more we are deceived the more successful the joke is. Anyone who thinks otherwise is letting their emotions drive their reasoning and that's animalistic.

who could be behind that?

Anyone know if there's any way to unfuck the font rendering in devuan/debian? It looks like absolute shit on my machine, I ended up copypasting some fonts.conf from the internet and it's better now but Japanese characters still look like shit.

>>1048947

It's too late, Devuan's dev outed the project as a joke. While it's funny that Devuan is now confirmed the joke which it was long supposed to be, this bit of humor has also doomed the project.

Live and learn I guess.

It's funny but I just want a normal fucking operating system. Do I want something without systemd, or something without autistic drama?


 No.1059646

>>1059634

just use one of those real distros that arent a debian fork. you are literally using debian with systemd uninstalled when you use devuan. it even wants to get reinstalled if you try to install some packages. you can uninstall systemd on normal debian too so devuan is useless.
