Yes! Another huge win for links2gang !links2@lemmy.sdf.org

Can’t ruin what was already trash, QED

Thank you for greatly improving California with this decision, elon!

I’m not familiar with ports, does it provide an easy way to install packages of a particular version? Is it OpenBSD only, or just a system of installing things?

OpenBSD’s ports are just a collection of perl scripts and makefiles managed by a VCS (usually CVS though there are mirrors). Due to how recursive CVS works, you can easily update any part of the tree to a different commit/tag.

$ cd ${PORTSROOT}/games/stone-soup
$ cvs up -CPd -D 'some date_spec' #or -r some_tag
$ make install
$ヽ༼ຈل͜ຈ༽ﾉ enjoy your old or backported videos games

very scriptable, should be easy to figure out how to automate this should you need to.

Shoving your entire system config into a couple DSL files is elegant? Sorry, I’ll stick to OpenBSD’s ports system and periodic rsync backups, that give me all the same benefits without the mountain of XY problems. Gentoo would also like a word, but they’re too busy recompiling all of llvm with one build flag changed to give input. Hope you never have to use anything other nix, since you’ve spent all your time learing to configure an abstraction layer instead of interfacing with the real underlying tooling.

I hope all big corporate SEO trash follows suite, once they’ve all filtered themselves out for profit we can hopefully get some semblance of an unshittified search experience.

ssm has an idea for a “forever list” of companies he will never buy from

They’re calling you a sussy amogussy

to send:

GZIP=-9 pax -wz /some/files | openssl some-cipher -k 'really secure password' | ssh user@host 'cat >file.ustar.gz.enc'

to unpack:

openssl some-cipher -d <file.ustar.gz.enc | pax -rz

if your distribution sucks and you don’t have pax, tar should work too.

There are other mobile OSs besides Android and iOS. That being said, iOS is one of the most locked-down restrictive platforms on the planet, and any “freedom” you have now can be taken away in a single update as soon as Apple gets an angry letter from Nintendo or the RIAA or whatever.

Use the megathread, it has lists of trusted providers (goat symbol).

Of course, that’s not good enough, so my “antivirus” is to use an entirely separate device for gaming/piracy and a lower power device for production and work. If my gaming device gets compromised, the attacker will just know how many hours I spend in vampire survivors :)

I don’t think opus can be stored in an mp3 container without reencoding. Opus can be stored in mkv, ogg (or opus, an alias of the ogg file format, unless that changed), mp4 (I think this may be experimental?), and webm, off the top of my head. Try using ffmpeg to copy to various formats: ffmpeg -i in.opus -c copy out.ext, replacing ext with whatever file format you need. -c copy will always be lossless.

You can also try reencoding as flac or another lossless audio codec, but this may balloon your file size.

Wow that’s so Narwhal Bacon, I heard about NordVPN while watching my daily Skibidi Raid Shadow Legends content while eating my World of Tanks themed Factor meal with extra soy while trying to ignore my dad beating my mom after his BetterHelp appointment

Can’t argue with that, I was ADHD skimming. I will now curl up in ball in the corner and die of embarassment and cringe :(

Did you check the hyperlink? Because it is !techtakes@awful.systems levels of stupid. I can’t read

Specifically “Sam Altman or Elon Musk about the “existential risk” artificial general intelligence poses to humanity” which contains a hyperlink leading to an independent article titled “Elon Musk says AI one of the ‘biggest threats’ to humanity”, and is just as much unholy brainrot as one might expect.

Hello, I have downvoted your post!

Reasons include:

• stupid fucking clickbait title
• sharing information that was otherwise already obvious to everyone for the past 2 years
• quoting elon musk they’re actually denigrating elon and I can’t read lol

Very cool, I will keep self hosting instead of using corpoid “privacy” services that help convict climate activists

Mouse and keyboard are my bread and butter, I don’t particularly enjoy gamepads, but the Steam Deck gets around this thanks to having touchpads and gyro, so I don’t mind using it when nothing else is available.

Support a federated open source peertube instance instead of proprietary centralized paywalled garbage like Nebula. Just because the shittification isn’t there yet doesn’t mean it won’t be as soon as it gets a bit more popular.

Switch to 3rd party clients like pipe-viewer (doesn’t need api key), it’s less likely (though I suppose not impossible) google would roll this out against 3rd party clients as they can’t track you for targeted ads.

To people thinking of joining Nebula because their marketing team/shills are currently spamming this thread, see peertube (federated like lemmy, open source)

Was thinking of putting “UNIX Hackers” but I thought that might have been too obscure. Referencing people like Linus Torvalds’, Theo de Raadt’s, and cat-v’s opinions on C++.

I self host mail/smtp(opensmtpd)+imap(dovecot), znc (irc bouncer), ssh, vpn (ipsec/ikev2), www/http (httpd), git (git-daemon), and gotweb, on an extremely cheap ($2 a month, 512M ram 10G storage) vps all very easily on openbsd. With all these servers I’m using an immense 178M/512M of my available memory.
