I wish there would have been more positive circumstances though.

You're getting cynical nowadays, eh? ;) I would rather suppose that operating a planetwide botnet is something more elaborate, something to be done by criminal pros and then to be rented for real money. (But then I don't know for certain, never...

That's what I'm seeing on some websites I look after, and that's what is being reported elsewhere, especially for open source projects. For example: https://thelibre.news/foss-infrastructure-is-under-attack-by-ai-companies/

One possibility is quite widely distributed AI/LLM crawlers that want to pull every posts here for learning data. If the requester IP addresses are limited low enouch numbers, admins can easily shut out the requests from the IP addresses, thus...

Good news: as of today DaemonForums is back online! :D Thank you for your efforts vintrax! 🙏

On Rocky Linux same situation, only Chrome based browsers for video and screencasting, chat/audio works.

It's kind of exploding now. It can also be a political tool to get public sources ID-verified and/or block refusers. Easy excuse to profile people on random services like account-based forums without admin credentials.

My first "real" PC was an IBM-compatible clone: 486 DX4-"100" MHz, 16 MB of RAM VLB bus, VIA chipset, S3 4 MB graphics card with an empty socket for plug a 4 MB RAM chip 540 MB hard drive I miss it.

I've set FreeBSD.conf to "quarterly" (was empty before); reinstalled musescore from package. All packages are uptodate. uname -a FreeBSD acer.hpch.net 15.0-RELEASE-p13 FreeBSD 15.0-RELEASE-p13 releng/15.0-n281114-af58d0db156a GENERIC amd64...

Apple II doesn't have RGB based video but uses NTSC colorburst to simulate colour from the YIQ space, very handy trick when you don't have enough memory to describe every pixel in colour and described to death all over Internet. View...

I have another rationale for all the bots; suck up information to feed the Data Centers and AI. Additional Edit. It's not like AI is programed with super-intelligence or can intrinsically can judge the veracity of data. The frequency and viral...

Original article here. Consider this when replying. For Nimish Jain, working on FreeBSD this summer meant getting an up-close look at something he had long been curious about: how large, complex pieces of software work together. A Software...

nope as www/chromium works,it is probably some cocked up config on the specific port of FF

Not mine, but it would be worth seeing... the first mouse with teletype and mini (!) computer.

It does. It either has a search or a domain entry (can't have both).

The Apple ][ doesn't actually output a color signal. Woz did some wizardry to get a CRT to produce colored pixels. Looks absolutely horrendous if you connect a "modern" LCD to it. Other systems did tricks as well that only look right on an old...

xchris like Geezer said, MS only supports teams on Blink (Chrom*, Edge) or Webkit (Safari). Running under Firefox is only okay for chat. 1:1 calls, it will depend on the phase of the moon (i.e. Teams web and Firefox releases) 1:N calls...

You cannot plug a DOS PC into a modern monitor that easily, because the upscaler board doesn't support VGA resolution. They seemingly don't handle anything below VESA (640x480). It is common to plug a HDMI port from late 00s PC into a modern...

ok thanks.. for the replies, its just BS any stories around that teams works with firefox on FreeBSD it works with firefox on linux in fact (just checked it on my Alpine box)

Here are 3 old gents that were near & dear to my heart:

Rust takes about 2.5 hours on my build server (old dual Xeon, got plenty of RAM). Python shouldn't take long though, python312 only took 10 min. here.

wut? For the record, one of us is very confused at this point. As far as I know, nvi(1) doens't have a spell checker so you would have to use something like spell(1). I was literally asking if you use spell(1) or something else. I can barely...

Bad idea. You can get some really odd and inconsistent behaviour. https://forums.freebsd.org/threads/ipfw-and-pf.93350/post-653986

Use teams inside chromium often. Can see, be seen and can share screens.

Right, considering the options, we are simply going to serve a static single-page website (see image) when a DDoS occurs, and switch back to normal operations when it's over. The Anubis solution has been partially successful, but it still adds...

I tried to install it today from scratch again (releng/15.0-n280995-7aedc8de6446 with quarterly) , and it works again. I do have such dependency: [15:56:43] martin@fbsd15:(~)$ ldd $(which musescore)|grep -i templ libQt6QuickTemplates2.so.6...

aragats yes, MS Teams.. I can see myself on the video - and even sites like webrtc check / webcamtest etc - issue is they can't! They only see a white or black screen (depends their theme..)

Are you talking about MS Teams? I use it every day for work in Waterfox on FreeBSD. I remember the issue with not seeing other's video over a year ago, but now it's OK.

I am having hard time with this... as other's can't see me, I can see myself anyway on the teams. Tested with www/chromium -works- so no camera permissions for sure. Is some codec I miss or just www/firefox on FreeBSD is .... crippled? Thanks!
