cultural reviewer and dabbler in stylistic premonitions
I hope they’ll be gentle if they ever realize Canada exists
here is their canada portal: https://www.aljazeera.com/where/canada/
they also have some documentaries: https://www.youtube.com/@aljazeeraenglish/search?query=canada
Auschwitz was in Poland. They were careful to keep all the concentration camps out of Germany
The six extermination camps where 2.7 million of their victims were murdered were all in Poland, but the Nazis did have hundreds (or dozens, if you count all of the subcamps near a larger one as being a single camp) of concentration camps in Germany.
Posting maps and call it a day. Classic. Any kind of context is for nerds I guess?
Your comment I replied to also doesn’t say anything about the context of the expansion, it just says it “is not real”.
But if you want some context, I encourage you to watch the 20min video i posted earlier in this thread.
NATO expansion
Which is not real. I am saddened you choose to believe in it.
🤔
(via this article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlargement_of_NATO …which will presumably amaze you)
If you’re actually curious and have 20 minutes, try this video: Ukraine: The Avoidable War
The tone which comes across in the video (linked from the other post I linked to in this post’s description) is unfortunately much less amicable than this article conveys.
the guy speaking off camera in the linked 3min 30s of the video is Ted Ts’o, according to this report about the session.
it’s been nearly four years since he stopped being involved with it, fyi.
Really?! I have never seen a paywall there, and I usually access it using tor browser (so, coming from a variety of countries).
lol, i just accepted the title tag from the page which the create post form auto-filled 🤡
E: old thinkpad gang input: take the time to reapply thermal grease to the cpu at some point. It makes a huge difference.
What’s a “gang input”?
😂 it’s an input to this discussion from a member of the group of people (“gang”) who have experience with old thinkpads. and yes, if your old thinkpad (or other laptop) is overheating and crashing, reapplying the thermal paste is a good next step after cleaning the fans.
xzbot from Anthony Weems enables to patch the corrupted liblzma to change the private key used to compare it to the signed ssh certificate, so adding this to your instructions might enable me to demonstrate sshing into the VM :)
Fun :)
Btw, instead of installing individual vulnerable debs as those kali instructions I linked to earlier suggest, you could also point debootstrap at the snapshot service so that you get a complete system with everything as it would’ve been in late March and then run that in a VM… or in a container. You can find various instructions for creating containers and VMs using debootstrap (eg, this one which tells you how to run a container with systemd-nspawn
; but you could also do it with podman or docker or lxc). When the instructions tell you to run debootstrap
, you just want to specify a snapshot URL like https://snapshot.debian.org/archive/debian/20240325T212344Z/
in place of the usual Debian repository url (typically https://deb.debian.org/debian/
).
A daily ISO of Debian testing
or Ubuntu 24.04 (noble
) beta from prior to the first week of April would be easiest, but those aren’t archived anywhere that I know of. It didn’t make it in to any stable releases of any Debian-based distros.
But even when you have a vulnerable system running sshd in a vulnerable configuration, you can’t fully demo the backdoor because it requires the attacker to authenticate with their private key (which has not been revealed).
But, if you just want to run it and observe the sshd slowness that caused the backdoor to be discovered, here are instructions for installing the vulnerable liblzma deb from snapshot.debian.org.
Mattermost isn’t e2ee, but if the server is run by someone competent and they’re allowed to see everything anyway (eg it’s all group chat, and they’re in all the groups) then e2ee isn’t as important as it would be otherwise as it is only protecting against the server being compromised (a scenario which, if you’re using web-based solutions which do have e2ee, also leads to circumvention of it).
If you’re OK with not having e2ee, I would recommend Zulip over Mattermost. Mattermost is nice too though.
edit: oops, i see you also want DMs… Mattermost and Zulip both have them, but without e2ee. 😢
I could write a book about problems with Matrix, but if you want something relatively easy and full featured with (optional, and non-forward-secret) e2ee then it is probably your best bet today.
you don’t see any downside to nuclear escalation?
Yes he could be extradited and found not guilty No member of the press deserves to go to jail For doing that’s job
So, I guess you’re either being disingenuous or you haven’t followed the case much. If it’s the latter, I highly encourage you to read the two links in my earlier comment, and/or any of these: 1, 2, 3
Are you aware of anyone besides yourself seriously arguing that he has any chance of being found not guilty in a US espionage trial, while also saying that he doesn’t deserve to go to jail?
As far as I’ve seen, any remotely informed commentator who argues that he could get a “fair trial” in the US is also arguing that it would be “fair” for him to be convicted and spend the rest of his life in prison.
Neither did this guy.
The difference is that LLM output is (in the formal sense) bullshit.
