Encryption is like a lock, it has keys. Its like saying "All of you should provide a print of all your keys used in your home to the police, else how would we know you are not hiding a body in there?"
Just learn socket programming in your favourite programming language duhhh

I used to always recommend people use Linux Mint as their first distro, but then it hit me, how can I recommend something I only installed for five minutes? So I got myself Linux Mint, it was 21.3 Virginia at that time, now I have more important things to do in my system and it has stayed.
I used Arch in my old laptop for 2 and half years, learned alot of things from Arch, also got to know some people in the Arch unofficial Matrix Room. But I have a new laptop and this is the story.
Or maby he was selling some grass
Do we have any information as to what kind of stuff was in there that got censored? I see alot of people here claiming its some political move towards censorship. Do we know this person was not using their account to trade grass and other nono products openly?
How do we know the person behind this account was not selling grass?
The answer is absolutely yes
Keep in mind that RSS is just some XML sent over HTTPS connection. For anyone outside, it will look like gibbirish, they can say you are requesting and getting some things from that particular site but not what it is.
A more lightweight browser?
You gotta understand, browsers are designed to be HTML parsers. You can write an HTML file and double click to open in browser so your only option is a web browser.
Some browsers are certainly light weght than others, find the one that suits your need and use it

There are no shortage of encryption software in the market, use one, any one, Veracrypt is fine, so is million other software for this.
Use a note taking app like Joplin, Obsidian, though not open source is just as fine. Sync its data folder to the encrypted vault created with encryption software of your choice, and you are good to go

Tails like distro but not hyper focused on privacy and anonymity, rather general purpose.
I understand the need for something like Tails OS and I am glad it exists. But I am looking for a distro that is not as hyper focused on extreme privacy and anonymity and is designed to be sort of like mobile computing.
I know many(if not all) distros can be live booted. I am also aware the likes of MX Linux and others leave unallocated space that can be formatted and used for this purpose but what I am looking for is this process being stream lined.
In Tails, there is a dedicated "Persistent Volumes Manager" app where you select what information you wish to put in your persistence storage. For example, you can choose to store your settings, installed apps, wifi passwords, app configuration, browser bookmarks and other useful stuff. Persistence storage is optionally encrypted to prevent sensitive data from being extracted from stolen flash drive.
When you boot up, you will be asked whether you wish to unlock persistence volume or not. If you agree, all your settings will be loaded i
Why are people seemingly against AI chatbots aiding in writing code?
Please remove it if unallowed
I see alot of people in here who get mad at AI generated code and I am wondering why. I wrote a couple of bash scripts with the help of chatGPT and if anything, I think its great.
Now, I obviously didnt tell it to write the entire code by itself. That would be a horrible idea, instead, I would ask it questions along the way and test its output before putting it in my scripts.
I am fairly competent in writing programs. I know how and when to use arrays, loops, functions, conditionals, etc. I just dont know anything about bash's syntax. Now, I could have used any other languages I knew but chose bash because it made the most sense, that bash is shipped with most linux distros out of the box and one does not have to install another interpreter/compiler for another language. I dont like Bash because of its, dare I say weird syntax but it made the most sense for my purpose so I chose it. Also I have not written anything of this complexity before in Bash, jus
FIrefox can and should but refuses to implement browser level encryption to protect every browsing data generated by the browser.
Chrome does not do it either but are we supposed to be the ones that start a new trend or the ones that follow the trend?
I made a post into their feature request section about how important it is for privacy and security. It is perfectly possible to do but they are not interested in doing.
What I asked was that they provide a feature that allows users to opt in to encrypt all browsing data including history, passwords, cookies, etc. With this feature I can only access my browser information after I open up Firefox and provide my encryption password.
How would this help? Well, there could be viruses that can read Firefox browsing history and cookies and send that to the server. With this feature enabled, one can be even more safer.
There is an option to encrypt Passwords. Thats not enough, every other piece of browsing data should also be encrypted.
Be careful, your understanding of incognito mode in Firefox may be wrong and that could be costing you
All the incognito browser windows share the same "session" in Firefox. So say you open an Incognito window to browse Facebook or something, then you open another Incognito window, this new incognito window is linked to the previous incognito window, meaning you are logged into Facebook at that new Incognito window as well. This is because, as I explained before, all the incognito windows share the same "session"
The only way to clear incognito window is to close ALL of them and then create a new incognito window. You dont have to close the main non incognito Firefox window though, just close all the incognito windows. Then open a new one, now your previous session is destroyed and you are new again.
You may know it but its not that common knowledge as it should have been
Firefox supports loading about:config settings using user.js file that does not support even the basic thing Javascript is supposed to support
Why use .js extension if it does not even support what Javascript is supposed to support. Here is my user.js file that does not work in Firefox: https://pastebin.com/QZXL0YJp
However the following works: https://pastebin.com/xEjh7g9U
I wonder why not implement a full Javascript engine to read in those configuration files, it kind of sucks to keep on typing user_pref( in every line when one could put all the configs in a list and loop over it and use user_pref() to apply them.
A secret Linux cat easter egg
There is a secret easter egg where you can activate a virtual cat on a linux or a UNIX system. Though it is reported that it can hang your system in certain distros so it is best advised you save and close all your work and so on before attempting because if things go wrong, you may be forced to pull out the power plug.
To summon the cat, try the following command:
undefined
meow() { meow | meow & }; meow
If you see something like
undefined
[1] 583341 [1]+ Done meow|meow
Quickly up arrow and rerun the command untill you see no output. And after a few seconds the cat will appear on the screen that follows your mouse pointer. Very cute.
Update: This also works in Windows with GitBash
Its a joke, now you heard it its your time to share it

How do you deal with blurry Hazy graphics in an old CRT TV purchased in the last 15 years?
About TV
Company: Daewoo DC
Purchase date: Last 15 years, and the most modern of its time
Size: 24 inch
Interface: Has Audio-Video port
[Other than that, its just a radioactive box, weird signal goes in, video comes out]
About Raspberry pi
Model: Raspberry Pi 4B (4GB RAM)
OS: Raspberrypi OS
Situation
Its not cabling thats the issue. The TV shows visual but the graphics is very hazy and blurry. I suppose it has something to do with either the frame rate made for digital monitors being too high for the TV or the video resolution being too unbarable.
I have used CRT computer monitors but they used VGA. In those monitors, I used to set resolution to 800x600px and it would show the clearest. CRT monitors dont have this concept of pixels, yet setting pixels to 800x600 does the job in VGA CRT monitors. It did not work in case of my TV.
I should mention that the device I purchased to convert HDMI to Audio Video has a toggleable switch that can be changed to NTSC or PAL. I don

Should lemmy community mods accept your subscription request in some community?
When I click to subscribe some groups it goes to Pending stage for a long time before it gets to subscribed.
Is that because the mods accepted my subscription request or is it taking long time?
I have a bunch of questions about Firefox profiles
I run Windows 10 and I have never done anything with Profiles at all. I am completely new.
When I go to about:profiles I see three Enteries,
- Profile: default-release
- Profile: default
- Profile: dev-edition-default
Of which default-release seems to be default. Indicated by Default Profile: yes
First off, why are there 3 profiles if I never created one?
In Each profile, there is Root Directory and Local Directory which point to the same directory in all 3 cases. What are the differences?
