Ahhh, thanks! Please excuse my error - I am attempting to perform computation using a kilo of wet squidgy protein and fat.

This is how I torrent over Mullvad. I have no hesitation to recommend Mullvad - but I am not a crypto or security expert.
The main image fails closed - if the VPN goes down, transmission disconnects.
This setup also includes a SOCKS server that proxies your traffic over the same VPN. I use a separate browser (librewolf) and set the SOCKS proxy to :2020 including sending DNS over SOCKS. That’s because my country blocks piracy-related sites at the DNS level. If you don’t need this, you can delete the socks section of the docker-compose file.
On my ubuntu laptop, I install transmission-remote-gtk
in order to click on a magnet link and have it added. Otherwise you have to browse to the container’s web interface, which gets tiresome.
I have this installed as a systemd service so it runs on boot. I use the systemd state and credential features as a safeguard against my own mistakes with permissions, but my long-term goal is to encrypt these files on disk. Linux can be pwned - I have read that around 35% of botnet nodes are linux (although these are presumably mostly weak IoT devices). The secondary benefit of the LoadCredential
/CREDENTIALS_DIRECTORY
mechanism is that it doesn’t expose secrets as environment variables.
The p2p.service file needs to be in that path, but you can put the other files wherever you want.
/root/.secrets/mullvad
:
123456789
""
For mullvad, there is no password, only an account number. I believe that the empty quotes are necessary. This file should be owned by root and chmod 600; containing dir should be 700. Replace the account number with your own account, obvs!

to update the images.My friend, you haven’t heard about Oracle.
Microsoft at least gave the world Powershell, to balance out their sins. I can also name other good things they have done. Oracle is pure and deliberate evil.
I believe that the human race will end in one of three ways:
I think you were merely being pedantic, but there are some interesting points in there.
Is it a crime to generate fake “csam”?
Should it be a crime?
How can prosecutors get convictions against a defense of “no, your honour, that video is AI-generated”?
What we have now is still miles off general AI, but it’s going to take years for society to catch up. Interesting times.
Deliberately duplicate a mac address, and worse, deliberately pick a device that’s definitely going to be online in the same network segment?
At first I thought you were either trolling or profoundly ignorant.
Then I remembered that wifi is CSMA, and thought, hang on… is this actually a genius idea? Has this user come up with a hack that no-one else knows about? So I tried it.
It doesn’t work. I couldn’t even join.
So no, you are either trolling or ignorant.
Hers some discussion and links, for anyone interested: https://superuser.com/questions/1132935/duplicate-mac-on-a-wifi-network-problems
Racial origins of those terms? Citation needed.
Black and white, in the sense of good and evil, have had their connotations for a fucking long time, whereas black and white to describe skin colour are relatively recent etymologies. I’m pretty sure that Romans didn’t call themselves “white” or others “black”, for example.
I’m willing to be taught, but this sounds like bullshit to me.
The etymology being wrong doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t drop freighted terminology, I just don’t want false justification. Bullshit is never a valid reason to do something.
Looks like yellow fingers and grey complexion.
I did not find that at all.
I’m sorry you have that - I didn’t. I was quit with no cravings for five years, what got me back in was spliffs with tobacco. (Now I vape, because I do intend to occasionally smoke weed with tobacco.)
The reason you still have cravings is because you never deprogrammed yourself. You still associate gaspers with relief, relaxation, pleasure.
If you can reframe the sensation of smoking as the tense tickly feeling of “god I could use a fag”, which no-one would claim to enjoy, the rest is plain sailing, and within a few weeks you’ll be past any cravings. The bulk of the cravings are done within a few days.
I don’t mean to suggest that it’s easy to quit - most people fail. But the trick is not too withstand cravings for the rest of your life, it’s too break the paradoxical association of fags with pleasure, which is a one-time thing.
“…because if just one of those things gets down here, then all of this… bullshit, that you think is so important, well, you can kiss all that goodbye.”
Yeah and it’s cheap, also Quake 1 remastered is on sale rn!
Or, better yet, an alu plate and some soldered switches and knobs
Very happy with runbox.com. Hosted in Sweden, reasonable price, and - unlike proton - you can use your own frigging mail client
When sawing off your head, you want a nice clean cut. You’ll want a new dual-purpose hacksaw blade, probably about 24-28 tpi.
I found an article about artists practicing on pigs.
On your toddler.
Because, say, you knew the other parent was about to get full custody.
Or just because you’re really into Louis Vuitton.
Ooh, smart - he would be expected to drive to a lot of houses to do appraisals.
Not so smart when he quotes for the same roof every week, mind.
First? BSD just chuckles to itself
Launch by hitting windows key and start typing (this is now a bullshit web search)
The taskbar was usable (fuck this app grouping)

Looked fine
Hit F8 for recovery options on boot

Peasant. I use slackware.
Or will, when I figure out this compiler error.
You are correct, it’s a warm and helpful community… except for the people who like the smell of their own farts.
Lemmy is better. But reddit is lousy with ignorant twats saying bullshit like “Linux is just a superior philosophy”, but who have never written a line of C or C++ in their lives. They know nothing about system design or computing history. They make claims about windows that apply equally to linux, or vice versa. They use terminology in a nonsensical context. In short, smug fools. It’s not unwelcoming so much as unappealing.
The best thing about Windows is that no-one is smug about using it.
