Every fucking other day for the last 13 years, Tor will get permanently (or at least for half an hour) stuck connecting to the network. Why the fuck? How is this not fixed?

Apr 11 12:03:01 localhost Tor[2504]: Parsing GEOIP IPv4 file /usr/share/tor/geoip.

Apr 11 12:03:02 localhost Tor[2504]: Parsing GEOIP IPv6 file /usr/share/tor/geoip6.

Apr 11 12:03:02 localhost Tor[2504]: Bootstrapped 0%: Starting

Apr 11 12:03:03 localhost Tor[2504]: Starting with guard context "default"

Apr 11 12:03:03 localhost Tor[2504]: Bootstrapped 5%: Connecting to directory server

Apr 11 12:10:26 localhost Tor[2504]: Interrupt: exiting cleanly.

Then I restart it and it connectst instantly.

Why do my ethernet over power devices get broken until I replug them into the sockets?

Why does my XMPP client fail to connect to the network until I restart it? (x2 because I literally know 2 such applications, Gajim and Fortnite - Fortcrap uses XMPP to implement chat, no surprise)

Why does my thermostat turn off until I reset it 40 times?

Is there any engineering reason for any of this shit? I've been "systems programming" for 15 years and I've never heard of one.

There's no reason besides stupidity and bad design. Programmers spend so much time working around brain damage in UNIX that there's none left to make robust software. The problem is that there are no proper interfaces for one part of a program to interact with another beyond starting the program and passing it arguments (and pipes, which emulate tape drives and teletypes).

Subject: Software That'S Easy To Use AND Reliable


    This article is indicative of the UNIX methodology; if
your daemon process stays up for 24 hours straight without
coredumping or just vanishing into a puff of smoke, you're
doing great!  And if not, here's an elegant solution:

    No really, this is the way all system software will work
in the future; No one can REALLY debug software, even if
they did have access the sources.  I mean, why did the the
Lisp Machine go to all the trouble of signalling and
catching exceptional conditions, and so on (condition-case),
when it's so much simpler to wait and see if your process
dies, oh every 60 seconds or so, and start another one?  Of
course what if your process which is watching your other
process dies mysteriously?  Well, start another one!

what fucking news? is there a vuln related to this? a quick search on FD mailing list and search engine show nothing. iirc i disabled IPv6 anyway in the kernel because it's bloat

I agree Linux is also bloat and especially any GNU shit.

The only good thing about GNU is the GPL tbh.

Try to set up an IPv6 only router, then come back here to tell us what you discovered.

Oh, wait, you won't, because there's not a single site today that works with it, so enabling IPv6 is literally useless bloat in the header.


▶ No.1051463

>>1051414

Using IPv4 is literally bloat in the routing table.

I already did years ago, faggot. Works just fine.
