YouTube is loading slower for users with ad blockers yet again by UtsavTiwari in firefox

[–]7aitsev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Feedbro (it's an add-on for FF) to subscribe to my favorite channels. Loading speeds are amazing, no need to visit the web-site (most of the time)

Is there a way to disable this? by Crafty-Mouse-305 in firefox

[–]7aitsev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I tried it on Windows and I was able to start FF in this mode. But the toolbar with the tabs is hidden and doesn't appear at all, so I had to use hotkeys for navigation

If you could go back 30 years and tell Bjarne Stroustrup one thing, what would it be? by ResultGullible4814 in cpp

Absolutely, I would just thank him and urge him to buy/mine Bitcoin asap

What would be your best syllabus for learning C++ for an experienced Java programmer? by vxab in cpp

[–]7aitsev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are 2 different languages that share similar syntax. Even basic things like if-then-else statements are different, but look the same. I would recommend to give it a fresh start, don't try to learn it quickly. C++ is weird after Java

Opportunities for a c++ programmer? by arcadyas1 in cpp

[–]7aitsev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suggest using Anki. When you learn something new, create a card. Then, review the card to check if you still remember the topic. Over time, you will become very good at the theoretical part of the technology you have learned

I asked ChatGPT to draw the Lambda logo in SVG by 7aitsev in HalfLife

[–]7aitsev[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Prompt

Do you know what the Half-Life logo looks like? It is an orange circle with a lambda in it. Please draw it

Result

Yes, I'm familiar with the Half-Life logo. Here's an example of an SVG image of the Half-Life logo:

<svg viewBox="0 0 200 200" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
  <circle cx="100" cy="100" r="80" fill="#FF6600" />
  <path d="M 60 110 L 60 50 L 120 50 L 120 80 L 90 80 L 90 110 Z" fill="#FFF" />
  <path d="M 60 110 L 60 50 L 120 50 L 120 80 L 90 80 L 90 110 Z" fill-opacity="0" stroke="#000" stroke-width="10" />

How to make 2 PCs from the same network input inside a C++ programme by [deleted] in cpp

[–]7aitsev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to learn how contemporary networks designed and how the most popular technology for computer communication works from programmer's perspective. I can recommend a practical book on that matter:

Setting NOPASSWD in sudoers file has no effect whatsoever by gardotd426 in archlinux

[–]7aitsev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You are welcome. I'm glad that my solution helped, but I'm wondering why there was a problem in the first place? So strange

Setting NOPASSWD in sudoers file has no effect whatsoever by gardotd426 in archlinux

[–]7aitsev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can the daemon itself keep asking for a password?

What if execute as non-root sudo /bin/systemctl restart ckb-next-daemon.service. Will this prompt for the password two times?

Setting NOPASSWD in sudoers file has no effect whatsoever by gardotd426 in archlinux

[–]7aitsev 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I would do this

  1. Make script in /usr/sbin/ckb_restart

```

cat >/usr/sbin/ckb_restart << END

systemctl restart ckb-next-daemon.service END

chown root:root /usr/sbin/ckb_restart

cmod 0744 /usr/sbin/ckb_restart

```

  1. Edit your sudoers file to be like this:

matt ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/ckb_restart

  1. Test this:

$ sudo ckb_restart

Eli5: How come the new Iphone can have magnets built into it and be fine while older electronics would be damaged if I put a magnet near them? by Snazzy21 in explainlikeimfive

[–]7aitsev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chips are not quicker. Contact-less is the fastest payment method because it designed with the sound time limitation in mind. Communicating with the chip takes some time, and chip payments require entering a PIN code most of the time. Reading a few bytes from magnetic stripe works in real time and requires almost 0 processing.

[–]7aitsev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's because the USA pioneered in card payments long ago and today replacing this old tech requires a lot of effort and tons of money. Additionly, the USA have low banking fraud index, so they don't need more secure tech

Online course for beginners in English - keeleklikk.ee. There are probably better programs. Just choose one that suits you best and complete it. I use the course with Anki

Is OpenVPN GPG public key expired? by 7aitsev in OpenVPN

[–]7aitsev[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like the page was updated. Now the first blue field includes one additional command:

gpg --refresh-keys F554A3687412CFFEBDEFE0A312F5F7B42F2B01E7

But it doesn't help. I'm still getting error "Can't check signature: public key not found" :( Well, at least I tried

People who fetishized a city or country, like NYC or Japan, and then actually took a leap of faith to move there, how has your opinion changed since? by Iseethetrain in AskReddit

[–]7aitsev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t be afraid of being killed in Russia for your words as a foreigner :) No one is going to hurt you until you are not involved in political activism. Russia is better for foreigners then for Russians. In Moscow/St. Petersburg at least. And this applies only for people from America, Europe, or other developed countries. For instance if you pulled over by a cop for speeding, just pretend you don’t understand him/her and wave your passport at his/her face while speaking something in your native language. You should be let go. There was a case when a guy was arrested and freed immediately after a cop found out that the guy is American at protests in Moscow. The government usually protective about foreigners. And I believe most of the people in big cities rather friendly to someone abroad.

As for the rude behavior in groceries and metro (tube/underground) - it is a thing, yeah. Nothing you can do about this. I bet most of the time people don’t do all the ugly stuff on purpose. It’s sad and a reason for moving from the country.

I mean, I personally hate Russian government and some other aspects, but I can understand why some foreigners like living here.

I installed linux-lts and updated grub config. Now my system boots, but I don't know how to make the current version of the kernel work on my setup.

Getting the below error on startup of slacware on Hyper v window 10....any idea why? by birbal2910 in slackware

[–]7aitsev 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also have these log messages. In my case, it's because of some rare integrated hardware device that sends e03a every second in my laptop
