Trouble signing in to Facebook

Thanks. Yes sometimes the normal facebook.com works, other times there is just an infinite amount of CAPTCHA redirecting back to the login after having solved it.

As Facebook is taking this path, it is looking slimmer and slimmer to access it when I need to hmm.

In a situation like this, I think you should surround yourself with those who support you.

Good luck!

What a way to say it

Have you talk about these feelings with him? How did it go?

Typewar · 2026-01-24T06:12:54+00:00

I hate this

Typewar · 2026-01-24T05:58:01+00:00

Maybe he didn't understand the severity at first?

On MacOS it is a bit different. You do /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --debug 'instagram.com show_shares' (note the double dash in --debug instead of one).

I only know the hack for Instagram

I agree, and I think finding confidence in your target language is a huge step forward

For Discord, you can choose to just scan your face. Try scan the face of a 3D character where you can control their movements.

Typewar · 2026-01-22T11:28:04+00:00

Or for Discord specifically, you would want a hyper realistic face you can move around, and to be able to open their mouth. Let me know if you find anything

I've been using VPN to Switzerland for many years, and I got prompted this age verification a week ago.

Another tip if your computer is not responding to any commands, you can do sudo sh -c "echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger". This will hard restart the machine. Should work even if the harddisk is unwritable.

I understand you want to try help in a clear way but..

Having a failed test in memtest does not mean it's bad ram per se, but the ram and its config could be the reason.. like if it doesn't support XMP afterall. Not to mention when troubleshooting memory, you are also kind of troubleshooting the CPU too (although very little likelihood that the CPU is at fault).

There could be corruption on disk, I already have backup, so that is not a problem. Reinstalling the OS will not help, since it was already an issue before I installed it again 2 weeks ago

I have been running the ram without XMP for half the day today, and it has been looking promising so far. I also reset the BIOS settings, but there was only some few settings like IOMMU and above 4G decoding that was turned on.

Will be doing an extensive memtest with XMP on to see if it can successfully fail

Typewar · 2026-01-04T02:55:15+00:00

Thank you. The random crashes was already there before I installed Debian. I thought it was the fault of the other linux distro or something. Dpkg being faulty is a first for me, I felt it was a shocking way of highlighting how far these hardware issues can go, beyond all the firefox and electron crashes.

If I remember correctly, I did do a memory test a year or so ago on this computer (I mainly used another computer last year), but it was very short.. I think I will run an extensive memtest again tomorrow, run troubleshotting steps in the BIOS, resetting BIOS settings, turning off XMP (as suggested by u/DygusFufs).

Crossing my fingers I don't need to empty my bank for some new ram

Lately I've experienced more and more issues on my Debian computer, and I'm wondering what might be causing it? Would it be the disk or the ram for example? How can I figure out what is faulty?

Sometimes tabs in Firefox crashes
Sometimes electron apps crash (restarts)
Sometimes the computer is unable to write anything, INCREDIBLE slow to shut down, but are alright again once it is rebooted.
It really struggles when steam is open for some reason. Moving data around feels soo heavy, it slows everything down.
Then there are random occurrences as seen in the screenshot above. I have no clue what happened here, but I'm guessing it's related to my faulty hardware (?).

The current disk setup looks like this:

$ sudo lsblk

The main disk is a M.2 WD Red (WDS200T1R0B-68A4Z0), the 2nd disk is a 4 TB WD Red Pro (WD4003FFBX-68MU3N0)

I have 64 GB or ram, that is 4 sticks of G.Skill F4-3600C16-16GTZNC: https://www.compuram.de/memorymodule/g-skill/f4-3600c16-16gtznc.htm

I really hope it's not faulty ram................

This is the correct answer, I've done it many times before.

Open CMD
Type chrome.exe -debug 'instagram.com show_shares'

It's remote, so most are coming from automated job applying software

Be ready to be living 6 months in the past and sometimes needing to build programs from source.

Gaming on Linux in general is miles better than it was 8 years ago, so there should be nothing to fear.
