While browsing the forums after the defacement, I used Firefox with NoScript enabled. With JavaScript disabled, there was no redirect to the defacement page. Instead, the “Forums” and “New posts” pages appeared, at the time, as shown in the...

Hi guys, sorry that the FreeBSD Forums were offline for a couple of hours. We were hit by an exploit against a slightly outdated XenForo version that we were still running. The same exploit hit quite a number of XenForo installations today...

You are only as good as the latest software you're running and the ability to keep up with those. We had a failure in keeping up with XF and that will not happen again. This was the first security event in the 18 years that these forums have...

Answered here.

According to the Ventoy website, FreeBSD-15.0-RELEASE-amd64-disc1.iso | -bootonly.iso are listed as supported. Have you installed the latest available Ventoy version? Regarding .img files: What is Ventoy Also, forum member fmc000 confirmed...

The (fanless) PSU is in some way integrated with the case, I do not know how to separate it. I did many of the things you propose, but nothing with the PSU.

I just bought it second hand. Look the heatsink over the CPU:

Please enlighten me.

Is this the answer Using the GUI Open PCManFM and navigate to any file with the extension you want to change. Right-click the file and select Properties. Go to the Open With tab. Select your preferred application from the list. Note: If your...

Yes, Embarcadero bought out Borland. After many, many iterations, I understand the current 64-bit Delphi is free of the elemental bugs. I recently grabbed their freebie offering and found it the same as Lazarus: too many moving parts. So I...

Ha, I haven't seen your post before mentioning the Borland tools above. I've used C++ Builder extensively throughout the 00s, as I come from C background. I've always wondered why Microsoft did not equip VC++ with a true WYSIWYG form editor alike...

Problems like this are usually upstream issues. Don't always assume the FreeBSD port maintainer will dig deeply into the code to create a custom FreeBSD-only version of the software. As upstream develops their code we porters end up spending a...

bgavin Since we're talking about Windows development for a moment ... In between writing code in Turbo C and MFC, I was knee deep in Delphi / Object Pascal. At that time, Borland's tools - which were made to compete with Microsoft's Visual Basic...

Didn't Embarcadero buy Borland's compiler range? The late 00 versions of Borland's C++ Builder brought Linux support into the libraries. I remember Kylix being the name for the Linux version - googled it now, and yup Embarcadero bought that...

That option should probably be removed. It doesn't change anything, modern systems don't even work without ACPI. They are set up differently. A CD/DVD image (ISO) is read-only, in order for the system to properly boot it has to have some way of...

Perhaps works after a week, but I need a reliable system. If the card does it now, it will do it later. The diagnostic cards are interesting ...

The defacement page had some javascript in it. One of those scripts fired off an endless stream of HTTP connections. That might be the reason.

I dd'd a FreeBSD 14 release to USB and it worked fine (straight dd/no Ventoy); I was confused on that too initially but iirc in an announcement page it mentioned that could be done for non-memstick images

Screenshot from Firefox 12:15PM EST On a different screenshot bottom-left I saw a clock icon; is that YouTube watch later? Is it affected by cross-site cookies? Was the hijack code changed since it was deployed? (somewhere between 12:10 and...

Just tried. I left the USB Stick connected more than 5 minutes, I put a fan over the CPU. The were no activity in the Stick, the leds did not light. It seems the motherboard is gone. I hope the PSU was not the cause, because I want to use it.

Thanks for being honest. Appreciate that really i do. Today no cigarettes my friend. I will take one. Then walk dog. "Even if this out of thread."

I looked at phpBB vs MyBB and chose MyBB for some reason. I hosted for a bit before figuring out something to use it for :p (links back to my notes but with a little better categorization)

Common misconception. Even the "limited" www user most webservers run on can be abused to attack/proxy other systems. It's not as "limited" as a lot of people think it is. As a matter of fact, it's not limited at all, it can do the same things as...

Xenforo is utterly superior software, though. I also ran a forum on OSS for a while.

Thanks, I will try. Here is a video of someone doing it: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LirQ-oM9XBI

A long time ago the forums ran on phpBB for a while. It too had its fair share of security issues. Software rarely is completely free of bugs, open or closed source doesn't really matter. Closed source may be a bit better at hiding them.

Don't know about this specific board. But there are mainboards nowadays that allow you to update/flash the firmware without having a CPU installed on it. Just the bare board, no CPU, no memory, no graphics card. All you need is power and a USB...

Hi all. I am a retired IT guy and semi-pro photographer. I've used Linux for great while and dabbled in FreeBSD for just as long. I finally feel the time is right for me to join the crowd here. My needs are very specific so that may or may not...

Hello everyone, I'm designer by trade and a freebsd apprentice.. Never poked Manic Miner.

I'm always root, I don't have any users. lxde is my Window Manager. How do the values get set? Is there a configuration editor?

That happens when I disconnect the cable. In my case, I get a blank screen, even if the computer is off. Interesting. Does that work without graphics? I read there something like: 1. Turn on the system. 2. Insert flash drive containing BIOS...

I think Embarcadero tried to revive that a number of years back. I never used it myself. Looks kind of similar to Code::Blocks.

hruodr On my monitors, when there is nothing coming from the computer, it puts a note up on the screen saying "no signal". Does yours do that? Turn the computer off or unplug the monitor cable if needed.

Apparently one can override background highlight colors for claws-mail panes in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css. I haven't tested it, it could effect other applications using gtk3 as well. For details see MX Linux Forum - Setting GTK colors for...

Electron is a conspiracy by the CPU manufacturers to buy EPYC and Xeon MP systems.

Well Kent I have nothing to add to that. It used to be OKish 15 years ago. There is also issue with looking at streams e.g. screen shares, if most people in the team use big desktops.

No, that was a typo. No cursor. Perhaps is the BIOS corrupted, but no idea how to flash it.

The only real grief I have about yesterday's ordeal was the fact I skipped my workout, skipped dinner and probably smoked an entire pack of cigarettes in less than an hour. I'd do it again without hesitation whenever the need arises, that is a...

I'm blurting things out between runs. That you're getting a cursor tells me the processor is doing some things but it's not displaying the motherboard's boot screen which I assume it has. This might indicate the problem is with the motherboard's...
