Currently trying to stress test fediverse DDOSing. Fediverse implementations tend to DDOS sites linked on boosting. @jens challenged me on breaking interpeer.io using that. Boost if you wanna help stress test? Thanks :pleading_cat_collar:
in reply to April The Pink ⋆☾╶⃝⃤☽⋆

it’s unlikely to actually take down the site; it generally doesn’t cause more than a few hundred req/sec, which a caching proxy/static-server like Nginx/Apache/Caddy can easily handle even on modest hardware. The Fedi DDoS effect mostly impacts misconfigured sites. An h2load run from a couple networks should more easily reveal any issues.

Well done to the global cyber community for warning businesses about the “Commodity Malware” PuTTY, WinRAR and SOCKS (the protocol).
in reply to Kevin Beaumont

don't you just hate it when you find one of those pesky SOCKS5 just lying around there!
in reply to daniel:// stenberg://

@bagder I'm impressed with the longevity of that protocol tbh, like, did they perfect it at that version? I would've thought there would be a SOCKS30 by now

in reply to Talon

@talon @fireborn What is very interesting about that DoJ article is what it wants you to think but does not explicitly say (probably because it didn't happen).

It says that the free version would constantly pop up ads until uninstalled, it also says that uninstalling wouldn't remove all the files, it mentions those facts multiple times, in close proximity to eachother, but nowhere does it say that the still-installed components would continue popping up the ads, even after the software was uninstalled.

I feel like the DoJ was trying to create that exact impression to make the charges look more dire (this is actually more common than you think), but obviously couldn't say anything untrue, so they had to carefully construct their sentences so that inattentive readers would draw a conclusion that wasn't actually there'

in reply to Mikołaj Hołysz

@talon @fireborn THe other charges (mainly the negative option billing and the annoying pop-ups) do look pretty serious, though.


Ich habe seit ein paar Tagen bei der App Aktualisierung über F-Droid eine komische Warnmeldung. Kann mir Jemand sagen, was das sein kann? 🤔 @IzzyOnDroid
in reply to schnedan

@schnedan Ein F-Droid client (siehe android.izzysoft.de/applists/c…). Die "Basic" Variante kommt ohne Integration der "Nearby Share" Funktionalität (die ohnehin nur wenige verwenden), und ist daher ein wenig schlanker. Auch bekommt Basic neue Funktionalitäten eher als der "Fat Client" 😜

@schnedan Schau mal in die verlinkte Liste, da gibt es so einige interessante Clients. Und gerade bei Neo Store und Droid-ify wird es bald einiges sehr interessantes geben 😉 @tucholsky


Now I wonder, did they disconnect the clock precisely at 07/19:55:00 or is there some sort of mechanical feature to bring the second hand to 00 position? 🤔

Or they might have disconnected the clock line first while leaving the clock powered. This would bring the second hand to 00 waiting for the next minute pulse.

Before and after closing the #Matrix #Element chat client tab in Firefox: 2.8 gigabytes of RAM freed. For *one tab*. And this is not a memory-inefficient browser we're talking about.

I guess feature-rich public chatrooms have a cost.

Možná žádná data tohle rozšíření nesbírá a neposílá, ale zdrojový kód není k dispozici a ujištění na webu nestačí.

Ja mám celkovo rád tie ich vstavané filtre, nielen WB. Totiž na fotení mňa nikdy nebavil ten postprocess. Nikdy som v tom nebol dobrý, ale automatické vyvažovanie farieb dáva sterilne uniformné výblitky, tak chtiac nechtiac musel som ísť do rawu.

Dnes vám ukážu svoje letní kombo. Minerálka, smoothie a ledová káva.

in reply to Archos

@archos @PtrSrejber Jo no, lepší je právě nejdřív to studené mléko. Poněvadž horká káva ty kostky mnohem rychleji rozpouští a pak to není ledové, ale vlažné a bez ledu.
in reply to Zdenda Sazovský

@sazy @archos
Tak jsem to právě dělal , když jsem pracoval v kavárně. Led studené mléko, espresso, protřepat v šejkru a nakonec vanilkovou zmrzlinu. Ve skle do vypadalo moc dobře...

New scraper just dropped (well, an old scraper was renamed):

Facebook/Meta updated its robots.txt entry for opting out of GenAI data scraping. If you blocked FacebookBot before, you should block meta-externalagent now:

User-Agent: meta-externalagent
Disallow: /

in reply to Seirdy

Obligatory “the W3C/EU effort for a standard TDM Reservation Protocol would solve this by letting sites globally opt out of datamining for purposes like this, without having to play robots.txt whack-a-mole”.

People really ought to support the NoAI and NoImageAI X-Robots tags in the meantime. They probably won’t, though. Unlike the TDM Reservation Protocol, there’s no legal incentive to do so; unlike noindex, there’s no self-interested reason to do so (noindex is often used on pages that don’t belong in search results, like duplicates and non-public pages).
