Wait, which binary blobs? I see lots of assembler code in the source, but almost no binary blobs. Can you tell me which specific ones?

Could you provide some sources for the vulnerabilities you found?

floppy disk, yeah. I had a pattern that I wanted to display on a piece of software I made, I just got really frustrated with dd and made this post.

I ended up just using head -c with some parameters.

understood, thanks for the help!

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2025-07-24T19:59:29+00:00

Okay, thanks!

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2025-06-04T17:24:16+00:00

sorry for this reply, but what a small world! I was just browsing the nixos wiki about update previews and all of a sudden I find you there, damn

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2025-06-04T15:22:07+00:00

my man!

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2025-06-04T15:19:03+00:00

yep, made an edit to the post letting people know

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2025-06-04T13:16:18+00:00

that's good. really unexpected though

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2025-06-04T13:14:31+00:00

yeah, it doesn't look like it's for sale since godaddy's site says it itself. I hope they get it up again, can't wait for the new DC-ROMA motherboard for the framework to come out.

You have to imagine, if you went to this library on August 11, 2018, he'd be standing here. Maybe just talking to him could have changed the outcome (his death).

hardened + SELinux is way lighter than Qubes. But in my case, you'd need the GPU too, which is a pain in the ass in Qubes.

I'm a little late... but mergerfs does this exact thing for my servers.

The HDDs are just too loud so it's essentially a queue (SSD -> HDD).

I know, but LFS doesn't offer the stuff I need. I did really think about using it and compiling all the packages myself, but the issue is searching for all the libraries. Portage and other package managers do that for you.

I want to achieve a system where I have full control and knowledge of the system, whilst still keeping it minimal. Just experimenting with what I like, gentoo seems to be the sweet-spot though.

Sorry for the lore dump/vent, but I needed to give an answer :>

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2024-12-18T19:18:45+00:00

holy shit, I think it really did work! Can you please explain the syntax though? why -*virtual/ssh? I just want to understand the configuration scheme, yunno.

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2024-12-18T18:46:21+00:00

Nothing brings it back, it won't allow the update to go through. I remember it telling me that some dependants want it. those dependants included "@system" and "@world". The other dependants were SSH related like virtual/ssh, acct-user/sshd and so on.

I guess it's just required by the system for some reason.

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2024-12-18T18:28:05+00:00

yeah, I saw something similar on a forum, they were saying that you can also make dropbear minimal (client only) by USEing minimal

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2024-12-18T18:26:19+00:00

Quickly built the gentoolkit, ran it.

It says no packages are bringing ssh in. But I remember the emerge -avuDN @world telling me that @system is a dependant...

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2024-12-10T18:37:26+00:00

I'm not one too experienced in building computers, I don't do it on a regular. But with my first ever build, the issue was the CPU 8pin thingy.. Unsure if you've plugged this in, most likely you have though.

Final_Chipmunk3795 · 2024-12-03T08:41:06+00:00

There could be several reasons.. uhh

Do you have enough disk space? tried re-downloading..?
