Thoughts on ClassicShell/OpenShell? Anything better?
>>16531 For me it's mandatory on Windows 8, 8.1 and 11. Windows 95 through 7 don't need it. It's optional on Windows 10. I believe Open-Shell's competitors are more bloated but haven't looked too hard.

Hydrus Network General #10 Anonymous Board volunteer 07/24/2024 (Wed) 20:55:28 No. 15721 [Reply] [Last]
This is a thread for releases, bug reports, and other discussion for the hydrus network software. The hydrus network client is an application written for Anon and other internet-fluent media nerds who have large image/swf/webm collections. It browses with tags instead of folders, a little like a booru on your desktop. Users can choose to download and share tags through a Public Tag Repository that now has more than 2 billion tag mappings, and advanced users may set up their own repositories just for themselves and friends. Everything is free and privacy is the first concern. Releases are available for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and it is now easy to run the program straight from source. I am the hydrus developer. I am continually working on the software and try to put out a new release every Wednesday by 8pm EST. Past hydrus imageboard discussion, and these generals as they hit the post limit, are being archived at >>>/hydrus/ . Hydrus is a powerful and complicated program, and it is not for everyone. If you would like to learn more, please check out the extensive help and getting started guide here: https://hydrusnetwork.github.io/hydrus/ Previous thread >>>/hydrus/21127

Does anyone know how I can increase my score, if possible considering all variables are no even though I am actually using a VPN over a VPN router with a SOCKS5 proxy? And can someone please explain to me, if it's an anonymity test, why do you lose points for VPN and TOR? It's taken me a bit of perfecting and tweaking to get this score, but how can I boost it to 100% clean? Cheers cunts :)

>>11884 Yeah, I don't get it I'm just using Vivaldi with uBO and uMatrix and I got 100%
An explanation on VPNs: A VPN does not anonymize you. All a VPN does (in simple terms), is route your traffic over their server before routing to its destination, and vice versa. So if you use a VPN, The VPN provider mostly is easily able to uncover your real identity in case he needs to (that is, if he keeps logs, which some providers claim to not do, but we all know the PROBABLY do anyway...) A better way of using a VPN would be not linking it to your real identity by any means, such as paying in a mixed cryptocurrency, giving a fake name, E-Mail etc.

Operation Download And Conquer Anonymous 10/02/2021 (Sat) 13:51:54 No. 5546 [Reply] [Last]
Given how majority of the internet's audio and video services are provided by Google, thanks to Youtube, the purpose of this operation is to loosen the death-grip that has taken hold. This process will only require that you have a steady internet connection and (Advisably) 100 GB of free space. Here is the process: Step 1 Download the latest versions of FFMpeg and Youtube-DL, and put all the programs into the same folder: http://ffmpeg.org/ https://ytdl-org.github.io/youtube-dl/index.html Step 2 Create an account to any video sites that you wish to distribute videos on.

>>8634 Doesn't 5G use channel 36-69 from antenna tv?
>>16472 Read this document >>16452 . Package data is way worse than analogue stream of a specific frequency. Package data = turning it on and off rapidly. Old TVs got a stream of data. Imagine you drop a hammer on your hand that's on a table. Most likely a small bump but no big deal. You leave it on your hand whole day and nothing bad happens. Now compare it with the package data, e.g. after you drop it pic it up immediately and drop it again and again all day. When you do that it could cause serious damage to your hand bones and joints.

>>8508 Are you retarded? VPN is included in the traffic they grab. If they crack TOR with brute force your VPN is gonna be worth shit. VPN is also encrypted. VPN relies on encryption. >>9122 Yes this is called man in the middle attack. Governments have already used it to give out certificates and wrong DNS to MITM you and get your traffic with the encryption keys. >>11275 Yes, this is one of the few usecases where using a VPN before TOR is legit: You cannot have others know you connect to TOR. If that is a risk for you then yeah, VPN -> TOR. Afaik no other case justifies using a VPN and then TOR.

alright we have 300 budgeted for it and a plan, I'll post updates here when I'm building it in a few weeks if anyone cares Another question for now though, is there any software I could use to make a tv plan - eg; at 10:00am a random episode of murder she wrote plays for 30 minutes, cutting into ad breaks with random wholesome 70s ads 5 times, then 30 minutes of random episode of gilligans island doing the same thing etc, she doesn't need it but I bet it'd make her smile
>>16459 I can't think of any unless you script it yourself, maybe with some playlist api or command for whatever video player you end up using. Even just peeking at a playlist file in a text editor, making a playlist to load each day but scrambling the episode numbers from a decrementing pool until every episode is accounted for might work. It's out of my wheelhouse but maybe someone else or an AI can help.

P2P Imageboard Client Anonymous 11/04/2024 (Mon) 02:54:24 No. 16463 [Reply]
I posted about this a while back but it was still in the early stages then, I've been working more on my P2P imageboard software, and after the underlying p2p database engine (Peerbit) has undergone some major upgrades, the performance and stability are a lot more robust now. There are also a lot more UX improvements recently based on user feedback. I've attempted to keep the dependencies minimal and make the install process as simple as possible. There are several nodes online to my knowledge but I don't necessarily have a full map or total knowledge of the network. Feel free to try it out and join the swarm lol. https://gitgud.io/threshold862543/peerchan For moderation I've kept a totally "flat" architecture where each node is free to delete any content at any time. But this deletion only applies to the node itself by default. If you want to be able to delete things on other user's nodes, they have to subscribe to your node as a moderator, and then when you delete something, that deletion action will be broadcast to others and they will accept it in their own local database. So you can subscribe to other people as moderators if you trust them to be able to delete things for you. Each board is it's own independently-seeded topic and you can watch (join) or unwatch (leave) a board topic at any time. There are various config options to customize your experience too. Posts and file uploads are made under a newly generated temporary identity every time (by default) for the sake of anonymity. If you want to anonyitymax at the networking level I recommend using Whonix to connect, though ideally eventually native integration with Tor can be developed for Peerbit or libp2p itself. That being said, already there is no association between a post and the uploading IP, when you receive a post from another node, the original poster is not known, as posts and files are relayed from node to node without recording the source. And this is the Peerbit p2p database system it uses which is built on libp2p. https://peerbit.org/#/
To explain the setup a bit, the default configuration opens a webserver on localhost port 8000 that serves pageviews to you and allows you to browse and post to the p2p database, which connects to other nodes in the background. If you want to make this into a publicly facing website via nginx or something, there is the option to enable "gateway mode" where you can enable or disable certain features (like the ability to delete posts) for public users accessing it over the internet. Essentially this allows other people to interact with your node over the internet and post using the traditional client-server concept. You can also disable all features when not logged in, making it so only you can browse and post and moderate when logged in (eg. from your phone or another computer elsewhere) but other internet users won't be able to access the content on your node. I've gotten a node to work and successfully replicate posts and files on Android in the past too, using Termux, so you can also do that as well.

As far as I am concerned Proton is based of Wine.
>>10669 Proton is very similar to wine, it is just a soft fork. Wine with some patches. When wine is changed they also change proton to reflect it. Proton is to wine like how arch is to ubuntu. Better analogy than android to linux.
>>10638 Yes. Proton is wine with patches from glorious eggroll and some patches from Valve.
