Do you like doing hackthebox and other ctfs? What videogames do you like? Have you tried emulating OSX or windows? Or more obscure systems? Thinking about going back to qubes myself..

>>1811 OP here. specifically on QubesOS gayming is not very good, something to do with the way the system sends input to the VM by default. you can hack it to work (i tried with Minecraft as a test) but it's obviously not the intention. i did not try emulating OSX but i did emulate Windows 7 and it was fine enough, about the same as emulating it on any other OS. >obscure systems i did emulate ReactOS on it, i suppose that counts neco i actually ended up switching off of it because i decided it was unnecessary for my threat model, and my 8gb laptop frequently ran out of memory during my daily usage.

THE next New Big Thing is a combination of dicksword, Anonymous Imageboard and Feditwittereddiverse all in one, and there's not even a signup. I don't know what it'll look like, but I do know there would be 2 parts to the site(or... webapp?), the "Agora" part, which is the "imageboard" (no redditvoting, no democracy, just posts) but has some elements from twitter and reddit, but primarily imageboard, and the "Tavern" part, which is dicksword-like, but all of this on one site/whatever-it-is. Overcoming bots would have users do or say things that bots generally can't, manually. Nothing is "automatic" Overcoming CP would have mods round the clock perpetually. The site wouldn't really have "boards", but few, with few "topics" doing 'roots' and 'vines' to others, like a web, like mycelium underground, the mesh and crisscross would be so much to the point there's no one real entry point, but all can be connected to others. twitter's organic connected posts resemble this the most.

People have been trying to make stuff like this forever. At the end of the day it's never something new, even live boards follow the same formula. Everytime a new ``next big things" seems to happen, it just remind me of a more creative and thought-through project that never went anywhere.

Support with creating a site Anonymous 12/11/2025 (Thu) 11:39:51 No. 1804 [Reply]
Hello Hikarins! I want to create a website similar to this one https://onodakimi.com/ but I have no idea what they used to create it, or if theres a builder out there. Do you guys have any idea on how I could replicate the style? I've seen it a lot, but I'm stupid with tech. I want to make one for my resume, and I really have no idea. Thank you!! Is there any easy way to reproduce the style? I'm really stupid..

Windows 10 EoL Anonymous 09/03/2025 (Wed) 21:20:38 No. 1676 [Reply]
Since Windows 10 is reaching its End of Life, what's the best Linux distro to use? I was thinking of Linux Mint possibly but I want to see if any Hikarins had any better suggestions

>>1752 "The beauty of Linux is that most distros are reskins of debian/ubuntu"
>>
>>1779 Not what I said, and also false. The beauty of Linux is that distros have a lot more in common with each other than most people realize. I just happened to use Debian and Ubuntu as an example, because I was talking about Mint. I'm sure most things you learn in the Debian side of Linux could be applied in the Arch or Gentoo side of Linux, etc etc. It's all Linux anyway. >>1772 >But the way I see it is that with source-based distros you at least have a fighting chance so to speak, as long as you know what you are doing. With binary-based distros, if something breaks or doesn't work, you are pretty much cooked. What do you mean by "fighting chance"? It's not like there aren't workarounds for things in binary- based distros, and some break less often than others. I'd much rather have a system that is stable and somewhat hard to fix than a system that breaks often but is easy to fix. >Can I recommend Debian to a newcomer when I know that writing a .ebuild is significantly easier than writing a Debian package? Can I recommend either when I know that both these things are relatively complex technical tasks? Newcomers, and even some tech-savvy users don't write their own packages. In fact most people don't even need to do that. Why should that be considered? >I don't have experience running binaries made for Windows on Linux, but I have a vague idea of the whole stack being finicky, fragile and error prone - it has to be, because of how both X11 and Wayland work. It isn't. In my experience, at least on X11, a lot of things just work with vanilla Wine, and setting up Lutris or Heroic with GEProton, or even running stuff through Steam isn't complicated. Of course it's not perfect, but don't forget that you're trying to run a binary made for a whole different OS.

>>1795 >Newcomers, and even some tech-savvy users don't write their own packages. In fact most people don't even need to do that. Why should that be considered? That's what I was thinking. I've been a casual Linux user for years (I've used debian, arch, and fedora based distros) but I have never once written my own package nor have I needed to. Linux is quite easy for the casual user as long as they have a basic understanding of how computers work, and even then the new fancy immutable distros that use flatpaks are so easy my grandmother could figure it out.

I found this abandoned repository https://gitgud.io/parley/Haruko. It's imageboard software that's not that old but still works. This is what it looked like: https://archive.is/qiLyz. and I would like your help in updating it. It would be a project for “new” imageboard software made with PHP because, from what I've seen, there aren't many like this left, so I created this repository: https://github.com/bigdustycheese/AobaIB which I will update and you will also help me with. >>Why should we help you with this? What do I get in return, OP? It's simply a collaborative fork. If you want to help me, that's fine. No one is forcing you. (If you see this on other imageboards, it's not spam.) neco_dance2

IRC CHANNELS THREAD Anonymous 11/17/2025 (Mon) 02:07:39 No. 1786 [Reply]
I am in dire need of more IRC channels!!!! Ones that aren't completely dead, although I understand it is IRC so I'll take what I can get. No specific topic that I'm looking for, just interested in seeing what else is out there. Right now I frequent Sageru's #jp, #linux, and #qa. I am also in the Hikari3 IRC and Wapchan's IRC. Recommend your favorite IRC channels gomennasai!

Steam Machine Query NAS Newbie 11/12/2025 (Wed) 20:45:20 No. 1773 [Reply]
Could the newly announced Steam Machine technically work well as a NAS? The specs were just announced but I'm assuming Steam OS has all the capabilities of a NAS but I'm not sure and new to all this.
>>
>>1773 Yeah, but not a good one. It only has a single M.2 slots for expandability, so you may want to look elsewhere. You might want to look into one of those ARM-based linux boxes, if you want a lot of M.2 slots in a small form factor though. I can't think of any off the top of my head though...
>>
It would be much cheaper to just plug in a bunch of external HDDs to an old laptop and stuff it under your desk. That's your NAS. Not fancy, but it works.

no because they're overpriced (either literally, or in the form of time spent scrounging and/or repairing) due to candy asss like everybody in this thread, and also because I heard that they rape your eyeballs with x-rays, and also because LCDs are superior due to being easier to carry around and wider that you can see more stuff at once and they're not even fragile I was throwing a giant ball around indoors one time and it hit my monitor full force and I was able to just remove the scratches with a pink eraser still fully operational
