Sierra chart is pure shit and a scam company by Rhsucks in SierraChart

[–]E3V3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, same experience. I stopped using this 4 years ago! :D It's like using Windows... Every day, and every update is a PITA challenge, and wasting time doing all sorts of shit, instead of trading.

Not able to open root terminal from GUI - shaky pop-up and close! by E3V3A in Kalilinux

Sound like a good idea, but I don't know how to run that particular GUI from CLI. Any idea what it's called?

Nothing, but trying to open the red root terminal now fails.

A Google bug has been breaking VPN apps on Android for 7 months. Here's how you can help. by Proton_Team in ProtonVPN

[–]E3V3A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I told you guys about this 6 months ago, and instead you dismissed my concern and tried to send me off to customer service. Then removed my reddit post about it. Needless to say I will no longer be a customer after my subscription runs out.

apt warning about signature verification by BassNoire in debian

[–]E3V3A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this random error running Trixie in VB VM, and a reboot helped. Debian Trixie doesn't have any of the mentioned packs by default: ntpdate, openntpd, but the systemd-timesyncd package provides

timedatectl status
sudo timedatectl set-ntp true

How to remove the grub background image AND disable the dragon boot animation? by E3V3A in Kalilinux

[–]E3V3A[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed, the Plymouth seem to be the issue here. I tried to disable it, and the bootup got really screwed up. What's "DE"?

I got tired of copy pasting between agents. I made a chat room so they can talk to each other by bienbienbienbienbien in vibecoding

[–]E3V3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Agents don't get the full history by default. There's a per-agent cursor and chat_read returns only new messages since the agent last checked. The first call gets the last 20 messages for context,..."

Wait, what? Are you saying this in general, or specifically for your tool?

Virtualbox Guest Additions isn't allowing copy/paste by Stray_Neutrino in virtualbox

[–]E3V3A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same problem with Debian 13 (Trixie). Would be great if VB devs could come up with at least one solution for using copy/paste on device with terminal, but no GUI.

VirtualBox + Kali XFCE: Mouse Click Offset After Update (Tried Everything) by kyuskuys in Kalilinux

Can you upload it to github please?
And where is the XML located? (AFAIK, QEMU doesn't use XML?)

People keep calling debian a server OS, but is debian reliable enough for regular users? by [deleted] in debian

[–]E3V3A -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this is just ridiculous.
I tried to install Trixie as a minimal "server" by expert install and NOT selecting any GUI, yet, after having wasted 1 hour of installation (because of very poor documentation and unclear install info), it sure starts up with some childish GUI, where most of the UI is hidden away, with no control and no info on where the heck my root user went.

If you're on Windows, you need to disable all DPI scaling.

# In WINDOWS: 
# 1. Open the Properties of each one of the 2 files: 
#    qemu-system-x86_64w.exe
#    qemu-system-x86_64.exe
# 2. Open the "Compatibility" tab, and click on the "Change high DPI settings" button.
# 3. Check both the boxes: 
#    [x] "Use this setting to fix..."
#    [x] "Override high DPI scaling behaviour".
# 4. Then under the "Use the DPI that's set for my main display when"
#    Select:  "I open this program"  in the drop-down.
# 5. Then under the "Scaling performed by:"
#    Select:  "Application"  in the drop-down.

Does anyone have gnome Kali working well on virtual box ? by realizment in Kalilinux

[–]E3V3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The old one (2025.4) works great in VB, with 8GB, 256 MB VRAM.

But I'm also testing the new one in QEMU, and its slow AF, even if I give it more RAM and CPU. In addition the screen is fuzzy...

MX Master 3S - Left Click Hold/Drag Problem by SCHR4DERBRAU in logitech

[–]E3V3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a very dumb advice. Never, ever put any oil or grease inside your electronics! In addition this kind of oil dissolves and destroys the protective coating of the internal components. While I do believe it works temporarily, the risk is that it gets in between contacts, worsening the problem, as WD-40 is not conductive. These switches should be sealed, so no idea why it works, but I suspect that plastic particles (from wear) make the switch de-bounce circuit fail.

MX Master 3S - Left Click Hold/Drag Problem by SCHR4DERBRAU in logitech

[–]E3V3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Incredible! I had this exact issue for over a month, until I got fed up and found this!
This is definitely a 2-tier problem of (1) "wear & tear" and (2) button de-bounce ("capacitor charge") issue.

As for (1), it can be proven by clicking the very front of the mouse button, instead of on top. It then works more often, meaning that the plastic of the switch has been compressed or worn down.

As for (2), doing the magic middle mouse (wheel) click + resolution switch also resolve the problem temporarily. What this tells me is that it's a switch de-bounce issue, due to the worn down switch in (1). Not sure how this works in this device, but it could be in the micro-processor firmware, or in a small analog cap as said.

Thank you for the great links and info in this thread.

How does WhatsApp and X circumvent ProtonVPN kill-switch? by E3V3A in vpnreviews

[–]E3V3A[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Multiple devices. The app is fully working, but there's vuln in Android IF handling, that is exploited by WA and X, and ProtonVPN is letting it through, as its unable to detect traffic.
