  • Manufacturers say Trump has made opening U.S. factories impossible

    Jump

  • He's working very hard to meet his campaign promises. They were too grandeur. The government needs a massive increase in revenue to be able to meet the promises he's made. If you sit down and think about it, this is the easiest way for the federal government to increase revenue without directly increasing taxes. Then he does wild deportations to distract everyone from what he's doing.

    All to keep the top 1%'s share of total adjusted gross income to share of total income paid at 26.3% and 45.8%. Crazy to me that the top 1% of earners cry so hard about contributing a proportional amount in taxes.

  • Ventoy my beloved.

    Jump

  • Directly from the developer:

    iVentoy and Ventoy are two completely different softwares and have no shared files.

    You seem to be implying that because iVentoy (which is not Ventoy) is vulnerable to this attack then that means that Ventoy is also vulnerable which is not only highly speculative, it remains to be seen.

    Actually, when iVentoy boot Windows through PXE, it will boot the WinPE with test mode, so there is no need for the driver file to be signed. So httpdisk_sig.sys is actually not needed and can be removed later.

    The dev goes on to explain;

    the httpdisk driver will be installed only in the temporary WinPE environment (running in the RAM), not the final Windows system

    The driver is singularly used in the PE environment. That's it.

    Is this a security issue? Sure. Is it as bad as everyone wants to make it out to be? Not really. From start to finish the Ventoy fever people seem to be getting by unsigned blobs is simply insane. Its a bout of hysteria and it's not impressive at all.

  • Help : Self-Hosting RSS Feed for my blog (pls)

    Jump

  • In your experience, what is the best way to go about this?

    RSS feeds are static files with formatted XML list items. When a feed is updated to include a new XML list item, the reader application notifies users who are subscribed that there's been a change. There are actually no moving parts to RSS feeds, which is what makes them so popular. RSS feed applications simply loads an XML feed and counts the number of XML objects. When the application checks again, if there are new objects, then the feed has been updated and you get your little notification.

    That's it. It's a static file (like HTML), and it works like magic. You don't need any software or libraries to create an RSS feed over and above being able to serve static XML.

    So unless you're updating your feed several times per day, I would just do it by hand. Maybe write a little helper script to scratch out the formatted XML based on input.

    Do I have to make them myself by hand and put them in an /rss/ directory in the root of my blog?

    You can, but it's really not necessary. If you check around github you can find a ton of projects that help you create RSS feeds.

  • Hey Installer Devs - an installer feature -- copy another system's install?

  • This is the entire point behind NixOS.

  • Current meta for direct download sites?

    Jump

  • Direct download is essentially dead in the US because of the relatively recent changes to file sharing laws.. XDCC, Torrenting, Usenet, P2P. Choose one. HTTP warez has long gone the way of the Dodo since Warez-BB died.

  • ‘Because of my Instagram posts?’ AOC swerves questions on 2028 presidential run

    Jump

  • That Tim Walz’s and AOC’s support for Israel is the single-issue that’s stopping Democrats - or at the very least Walz/AOC - from winning elections?

    I mean, it's a significant swing factor. It's clearly not the only factor, but you have entire communities in the US not voting for candidates because of their stances on Israel. You would think this past election would be a glaringly obvious example, but I guess not.

    Gallop polls suggest it's a significant issue or voters;

    Democrats' sympathies for the Israelis dipped to 38%, while the reading for Palestinians jumped 11 points to 49% [...]

    About 50% of them. To imply that they're not losing elections because of the support of Israel is supremely ignorant and stupid.

  • How to pirate movie safely ? It's my first time.

  • Because that download would still be illegal

    Of course its still illegal. I'm not saying it's using a seedbox makes it legal to download illegal torrents. It's just legal in the country of your seedbox. So if your seedbox provider gets a DMCA notice, they're going to throw it directly in the trash.

    Additionally, between my seedbox and me, is encrypted. So how would anyone know what I download from my private seedbox? There's realistically no way to get "caught." Copyright holders pay people to monitor torrent traffic for people to prosecute and hassle--but the same isn't true for private servers which encrypt traffic.

  • Wikipedia is using (some) generative AI now

    Jump

  • I still fear that mistakes may slip through

    Wikipedia is moderated by real people, so this is a non-issue. The fault tolerance for Wikipedia will be the same from AI vs People because it's moderated by the same people regardless of where the content comes from.

  • Wikipedia is using (some) generative AI now

  • I also use it for this. Sometimes I can get pretty draconian with my speech, so I feed my long winded responses into AI, and pull out a more readable responses. I even have AI write pull requests sometimes. Works great.

  • PHP: Gender\Gender - Manual

    Jump

  • For some languages gender-neutral pronouns aren't possible or aren't appropriate. It's really only in English and maybe five other languages that gender-neutral pronouns are a real thing and even in these languages if you're not used to using neutral pronouns or reading them in common writing sounds like a mistake to begin with. It's generally just easier to automate the task based on names, and the library itself comes from a time when that wasn't a controversial thought. Lol

  • Trump promised to help Big Oil. Its revenues plummeted.

    Jump

  • I used to work in oil and gas until recently. We had tons of work but supply was at an all time high. Trump declared an "energy emergency" at the worst time in history. It opened everything up, but demand doesn't magically increase. So now we have a ridiculous surplus of Oil & NG that will take a while to go through. Short term profits plummet and people are out of work until we have storage space for extracted hydrocarbons.

    Just can't stop winning, eh?
