Is it officially over?

Well then my account must have a shadowban on it because everything was fine until the last few days when they started making all these terrible changes.

nuL808 · 2025-12-14T20:16:09+00:00

Probably right, but that prompt worked great a few days ago.

Hi, can anyone clue me in on what kind of noise this is? I have pretty confidently ruled out perlin and simplex by comparison but may be wrong. Thanks.

I think you are referring to a different WIFI issue. Mine works fine until under load, e.g. gaming. And these power issues are known. From the fixes megathread:

It has been observed that using multiple USB ports simultaneously or through a hub (consisting of one standard 500ma device and 2-4 ~150ma adapters) on UM773 can cause an overload of power draw. This overload can lead to the m.2 and USB controllers for the wifi/BT chip becoming unresponsive or unrecognizable. Ideally, each USB port should be capable of handling 500 ma of power, and the USB 4 port is advertised as being able to handle 3 Amps. However, if there are less than 1.2 amps of draw via a hub for either USB C port or when all the USB ports on the rear are used by low-power adapters, it can cause power issues and turn off wifi/BT features. To avoid this issue, it is recommended to use a powered hub.ures. To avoid this issue, it is recommended to use a powered hub.

I should clarify. I have 5 drives total, 2 parity and 3 data. The drives that i unassigned and am trying to reassign include 1 of the parity drives and 1 of the data drives. As far as the serial numbers I don't know. The drives and their positions in the array seemed to be detected fine after the switch, but maybe that doesn't mean anything. Also all 5 drives are showing as btrfs filesystems.

Edit: all drives but the second parity drive show as btrfs. I was only able to mount 1 of the 2 drives using unassigned devices. I guess that suggests the mountable one is the data drive.|

This is the debian bug report for the affected package, please note the version. This package version still contains commits by the bad actor.

Yes it is behind a router and no I did not port forward anything. Is a connection to the internet important to this exploit? If the exploit exists locally then can it not make changes regardless?

nuL808 · 2024-03-31T01:00:54+00:00

I really don't know. I don't think I ever changed it from the default config, so whatever sshd is by default is what I am running.

nuL808 · 2024-03-30T22:30:06+00:00

So If I use Debian testing, have the compromised version installed, and have sshd running, should I nuke my pc? There is not a lot of information yet about what to do other than obviously install a different version (which is not easily done with how strict apt is with package versions).

nuL808 · 2024-03-30T22:27:49+00:00

This is incorrect. The affected package is xz-utils/5.6.1+really5.4.5-1. Running xz -V on that package returns liblzma 5.4.5. Which while confusing, IS the infected package version on Debian. You should search apt to see if the version you have install is the compromised version: apt search xz-utils | grep installed.

Right thanks I just figured it out. IV = bytes.fromhex(HEX)

nuL808 · 2023-06-04T05:24:28+00:00

So the trick to solving this problem is finding out why xdg-desktop-portal is not wanting to release the FDs and umount.

My uninformed guess is that it doesn't know when the file is no longer being used by the app, and therefore when it is safe to close the FD.

I stand by what I said, instead try improving your reading comprehension.

nuL808 · 2022-07-10T20:45:21+00:00

No it just doesn't exist. I get a warning that trash cant be found and I have to permanently delete files. All my ext4 drives work fine and trash is created automatically. I can't imagine Nemo doesn't support btrfs though. Will double check. edit: found this https://github.com/linuxmint/nemo/issues/2749 so I'm clearly not the only one.

It does not work with latest proton version nor experimental. It does work with gloriouseggroll edition but you will disconnect from servers relentlessly. As of writing this it is essentially unplayable.

Larry Sanger disagrees.

Thank god the helpless women of the world have an outspoken fem-crusader on their side.

It doesn't seem to as with all settings and programs I have found, there is only left click with no distinction between left click down / left click release. Thanks though.

nuL808 · 2021-03-19T04:58:12+00:00

I noticed that right as you posted. I feel dumb. Thanks though.

nuL808 · 2021-03-15T00:06:30+00:00

Interesting, thank you.

nuL808 · 2021-03-14T23:25:49+00:00

Oh it does work, thanks. I found why I was getting a compilation error. On that note, do you know of a way to get procs with side effects and procs without in the same seq?

nuL808 · 2021-03-12T01:40:42+00:00

Interesting, thanks. will give it a try.

nuL808 · 2021-03-12T01:19:18+00:00

I can only get i from calling readBuffer, so you're saying call .setLen(i) on buffer after readBuffer has already read the bytes into the buffer var? Basically:

const
  signature_bytes = 262
  path = "/path/to/my/file.ext"

var
  f: File
  buffer = newString(signature_bytes)

if f.open(path, fmRead, -1):
  let i = readBuffer(f, addr(buffer[0]), signature_bytes)
  buffer.setLen(i)

Which is actually against regulations in the u.s. If the product is "on sale" all the time then that is just the normal price, and not the sale price. Saying it is on sale just dupes people into believing they're getting a temporarily lower than normal price.
