Synnr , to linux in I was looking at the firefox flatpak on flathub. Won't this warning make a non tech-savy user anxious? This might make them think they'll get a virus or something like that.

This should have been much more well thought out The wording, image, buttons, specific wording for each page.

They really screwed the pooch.

Another 4-6 months minimum before release. But quarterly numbers must be met.

wget toteslegitdebian.app/installer.sh & chmod +x && ./installer.sh

was I not supposed to do that? but staxoverflown said it’s OK.

Synnr , to linux in Proposals about developing a cross platform Bluetooth manager/daemon

That does go a long way towards explaining why there are so many Bluetooth vulnerabilities, thanks for the info. Looking at the list of Bluetooth protocols wiki page gives me a headache. Surely there is a better standard, and I see things like HaLow, ZigBee, Z-Wave and other custom protocols, but it seems like there should be a very cleanly well-documented alternative to do the basics that everyone expects BT to do. This, coming from a total noob, speaking completely out of my anus. I just know that as a BT user, it’s a crapshoot whether there will be major audio delay, and pause/play actually worked, that’s if pairing works in the first place. But if something did come along I wonder if there would even be adoption among consumer devices.

Synnr , to linux in Proposals about developing a cross platform Bluetooth manager/daemon

Is it true the Bluetooth network stack is larger than the WiFi network stack? If so, why? I don’t know much about BT besides pairing, allowing calls and audio in/out, transferring files, and… is there more? It takes a day of reading documentation to understand all the advanced options on my ASUS router interface, and that’s without anything proprietary.

I’m just surprised and curious and never got a satisfying answer.

Honeypot? Dunno. Good discussions about it on hacker news.

Synnr , to programmer_humor in Dad has the chops to be a project manager.

Chances are this is a kid or NEET and all his friend wants is a super simple website with basic info for his local business. Dad is either doing him a favor, or giving him some pocket change so he’ll stop bothering him for money for a month. This is what happens when you don’t teach your children to be adults, and give them everything instead. Seen it too many times.

Synnr , to programmer_humor in Dad has the chops to be a project manager.

Based on this interaction alone and his dad deciding the price for him, I’m going to make the wildly assumptious assumption this is a 20s/30s(/40s?) unemploymed guy living at his dad’s house rent free.

If my assumptions are incorrect, sorry mate, you did not win the dad lottery.

Synnr , to technology in 3 days 🤯

Yeah but he’s just a temporarily inconvenienced billionaire, the rest of these welfare queens are out here collecting rent and sitting around all day. They don’t need the money like he does. As soon as he gets a job, he’ll hustle that first billion in no time.

Synnr , to technology in 3 days 🤯

His YouTube shorts (500/day goal) is videos of Elon musk saying things, with the background music alternating between the sigma male tune and the movie clip tune.

Did you see how ELON MUSK OWNED💯 DON LEMON by getting flustered at the question of “half your advertisers have left the platform, if X fails, isn’t that on you?” so he told Don he should choose his words carefully because the interview clock only had 5 minutes left? And then Don was OWNED because he rephrased the question?

LMAO. SUCK IT CNN. OWNED!

Synnr , to technology in Windows users don't want copilot on their taskbar

So programming is gonna go from a “search, understand basics, copy/paste, make changes” industry to a “I breathe compiler optimization, pay me money” industry?

Can’t say I’m that upset, it had to happen eventually. But this will only kick the brainpower down the road for the copy/pasters because they’ll have a lot more time to dig in and specialize.

Synnr , to linux in WARNING: Malicious code in current pre-release & testing versions/variants: F40 and rawhide affected - users of F40/rawhide need to respond

That was supposed to be or, not of.

In turn it compromises ssh authentication allows remote code execution via system(); if the connecting SSH certificate contains the backdoor key. No user account required. Nothing logged anywhere you’d expect. Full root code execution.

There is also a killswitch hard-coded into it, so it doesn’t affect machines of whatever state actor developed it.

news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39881018

It’s pretty clear this is a state actor, targeting a dependency of one of the most widely used system control software on Linux systems. There are likely tens or hundreds of other actors doing the exact same thing. This one was detected purely by chance, as it wasn’t even in the code for ssh.

If people ever wonder how cyber warfare could potentially cause a massive blackout and communications system interruption - this is how.

Synnr , to android in Free VPN apps on Google Play turned Android phones into proxies

ProtonVPN, RiseupVPN and BrightVPN(only for windows), limited ones Windscribe and PrivadoVPN

Where did you get this idea?

Mullvad, IVPN, Perfect Privacy, and a few others have had independent audits of their no-log behavior and in some cases, law enforcement audits. They sure as hell don’t proxy your traffic. They all accept Monero and cash. They all have multihop.

Edit: I see you said free. Yeah, I wouldn’t trust a free VPN, regardless. If you’re not paying for the product, you are the product.

Synnr , to greentext in Dr 4Chan's Medical Advice

Somehow I don’t think they’d mind too much, provided you give them a nice leech habitat.

Until Socraleech comes along and they force him to suck hemlock.
