GitLab as a web-based Git-repository manager with wiki and issue-tracking features is not GitLab the website that's on Microshit servers. GitGud.io runs on GitLab software, gitlab.gnome.org is not GitLab.com, etc., so basically, you're still a fucking moron.

This is a SFW board, NSFW content (which includes links) must be marked as NSFW content but otherwise this is considered spam. I'll let you go off with this ONE warning.

is the info pertaining to anything particular? I read the whole thing but not sure if it's even hinting to anything in particular

Sorry, I can't help you.

>>12792
No, it used to be a thread in >>>/POLAK/ but then some goddamn /intl/ gay nigger goon spammer(s) came along and took over that board and deleted all the content of the salt and blockchain files, of which after he was kicked out, much of them simply vanished, a couple fled to voat only to realize how much of a shithole it is, gave up, and a couple supposedly visited by spooks. The current Board Owner of /POLAK/ isn't the previous Board Owners of /POLAK/.

The whole point was to uncover the real untampered password behind Assange's encrypted files somehow through using the right blockchain data because of a supposed deadman switch that might had been dropped around the time rumors of black operations happened in the Ecuadorian embassy I think around October 2016 if I recall correctly. After that event, Wikileaks™ and Assange™ denied it happened yet Assange didn't show himself outside the window like he usually does while all of the original Wikileaks staff were pretty much gone if you knew even a tiny shred of their history. The John Pilger interview after that event was using some software capable of real time face capture and reenactment as well as audio signature, a clean shaven version of a man in his prior public appeearance had a beard. For a very long time there was a fake Julian Assange actor in his place and was the face of Julian's newer Twitter account. The interview after that one with Sean Hannity however, looked like the real deal guy which some speculate why the real Assange came back under what circumstances because something wasn't right.

None of that matters in the long run, Wikileaks have been and will continue to be co-opted by certain people of unknown power over this world and we will never ever fully realize what happened, a real spooky story which no matter how you look at it, nothing really changes in the end as the US government is still wholly corrupt and unable to jail the prime suspects of various criminal acts behind the 2016 election which is tied to various other undeniable public proof for conspiracy. Pick your own headcanon, none of it matters in the end. You could assume that white hat hackers somehow convinced their masters to leak certain information through Wikileaks™ and Assange™, or you could assume the very (((worse))). There was another deadman switch code released after but nobody gave a shit at that time since the consensus now is that some important people knows the key behind the encrypted code to decrypt should Wikileaks altogether gets shut down before their gathered documents get released. There's of course some ties with pizzagate and general Trump stuff but that's all political in its nature which is not /tech/ related. I still do think that the following image doesn't look like the real Assange but I can sure be totally wrong about that.

>>12796
Hmm, seems like /POLAK/ is gone. Well, it's for the best really.

>>12796
This sums it all up very nicely. The deadman key was huge happening, such a shame nothing was uncovered in the end.

by the way, when will wireguard move from testing to stable in Gentoo?
I want muh post quantum algo kernelspace VPN too!

>>12745
WireGuard is not
>formally verified VPN software

>Y-y-yes it is!
No, it's not. It is experimental software that is based on a formally verified protocol. Protip: TLS is also a formally verified protocol.

In addition:
>WireGuard is not yet complete. You should not rely on this code. It has not undergone proper degrees of security auditing and the protocol is still subject to change. We're working toward a stable 1.0 release, but that time has not yet come. There are experimental snapshots tagged with "0.0.YYYYMMDD", but these should not be considered real releases and they may contain security vulnerabilities (which would not be eligible for CVEs, since this is pre-release snapshot software).

>>12746
>I want muh post quantum algo kernelspace VPN too!
WireGuard is not post-quantum secure by default, and in order to be configured to be, it depends on a pre-shared symmetric key that has to be exchanged out of band. At this point, that means hand-delivering the key.

>>12745 (me)
>>12747
You're right. Yet, I think it's still better than IPsec and a good improvement over OpenIKED delivered on OpenBSD. It is in development, but I think in the next year it should be more stable and secure. Good keep looking into this, for people doing their own VPN.

Why is intel not prepared?
They must have a huge R&D advance, from all of this years without any real advance an breakthrough, against an AMD which was nearly none existence.
This demo seems like they took a random card on their desk, plugged some cooling and tapped this together.

That's weird. Maybe intel is in a bad shape, even though that's hard to believe with the money they're making for so much long time. I would like to read more about this.

>>12778
Intel have been too busy losing their server market due to all the vulnerabilities in their chips because they cut corners to beat AMD in speed. I think Intel has been struggling to keep ahead of AMD for a long while now. This should be a spectacular shit show as they fall down hard in the coming years. I personally can't wait to see what new levels of low they can attain after this.

>>12778
Their R&D has been in Yidsrael for a while now. They probably can't keep up with AMD and have been using fraud and pipe dreams to buy a little more time for years.

You had better shell out for some very quiet cooling fans with that thing right in your face.

>>12278
Needless to say, http://www.blacknoise.com/site/en/products/noiseblocker-it-fans/nb-blacksilentfan-series/50x50x10mm.php?lang=EN is probably ideal. Anything around 20 dBA really is probably recommended.

It's for Amiga fans but can fit mITX/mATX with a full-size reference blower-style graphics card. There'll also be risers so you can slide your keyboard under it when not in use.

I think this part should be "technology in general". There's subjects we might discuss that are not computing, and technology is not limited to computers.
Besides that, the OP text is good.

I'm wrong about the use of encryption with the SSD. In fact, you can, but you can't trim the SSD.
So if you're doing heavy work, then it'll be a real problem. I'm not even talking about buying it second hand, and so getting an already used SSD. But you still can use it.

But we have to treat SSDs differently regarding sec.

>removing the option to get 100 results per page
>removing scroll image search
>removing search query from tab title
If it's a cost cutting measure, it'd have to be because more and more people are
learning it exists and using it, but they don't make enough money
(from selling email accounts) to keep up with the demand.
Maybe people didn't use Ixquick enough.
Maybe they think Searx is superior.
I don't know.

You are right that Google's results are trash (articles from news websites typically get top priority second only to Wikipedia)
but everything else is even worse in my experience

Searx is what you want if you like having control over what results you get,

I use yandex.ru for images and searxes.danwin1210.me for general search which searxes is a searx web proxy that randomly picks a searx instance.

LIGHT: How optical processing can solve some of the world’s most complex problems.
https://www.labs.hpe.com/next-next/light
>Beausoleil spent about a decade working on quantum computing. That’s when he experimented with chips made out of diamonds. His team found that it was too difficult to create enough diamond chips that had exactly the same qualities, making it impossible to manufacture them in a repeatable and predictable way. This particular approach to building a quantum computer wouldn’t scale.
>Beausoleil concluded that photonic technology offered a faster and more practical route to success than building an actual quantum computer. “When somebody does manage to create a true quantum system with entanglement, that’s going to be awesome,” Beausoleil says. “Right now, we’re leaving that one on the table and just trying to take advantage of coherence.”
>[...]
>Optical computing is an emerging field with experimental components. The challenge is to raise the yield of working components to a commercially viable level. The Labs approach is to create a round of equipment, test it to identify flaws, then determine necessary changes in the chip design or manufacturing method.
>[...]
>Labs researchers are also exploring new applications for their optical circuits. For example, they’ve designed a system called an energy minimization computer that changes the state of an optical circuit to find the configuration that consumes the least amount of energy. This concept applies perfectly to solving NP-hard problems like the traveling salesman.
>[...]
>This technology won’t replace general-purpose electronic computers, because lots of problems aren’t NP-hard problems. But a photonic system-on-a-chip could be used as an accelerator running alongside a CPU in a conventional computer. Emerging computing platforms like The Machine, a next-generation system under development at Hewlett Packard Labs, offer even more intriguing possibilities. The Machine will hold huge amounts of data in memory and allow users to plug in different processors as needed, depending on the type of computation they want to perform.
>This technology won’t replace general-purpose electronic computers...
I still haven't learned why this would be the case.

>>12649
That sounds really cool. I've always liked the idea of having a completely modular computer, more so than what we currently have; the ability to have multiple processors for different tasks in a standard level computer would be incredible. It will never happen, because most users don't care for solving NP-Hard problems, though.

I spoke with a guy who had a PhD in photonics about 6 months ago. Although that conversation was mainly about carbon fibre, the bandwidth increases alone seem like they would be able to replace normal computers easily. Imagine being able to compute on a terabyte of data in seconds. We're hitting the limits of silicon, and quantum computers require massive amounts of energy to keep the conditions correct. Photonics looks like the only way forward.

>>12653
To add to my first paragraph (which is worded like shit), my main ideas would be having a modular CPU. So, the APU, cache etc. and the controller for all of the chips would be separate, rather on one die. There would be a much higher latency, especially for the cache, but that could potentially be negated by using a high-bandwidth connection and by using large packets. But it would be much easier to upgrade in response to exploits. Meltdown/Spectre? Just buy a new cache module that mitigates the exploit. Intel ME spying on you? Buy an open source controller that you know can't be hacked remotely.
It would make cooling a bit of a nightmare, though.

While I'm at it, why can't we have open source CPU designs at all, like we do with 40xx and 74xx chips, where different manufacturers make functionally identical products? If the basic chips are simpler (as described in my first paragraph), it wouldn't be too difficult to accomplish. The truly paranoid people could even produce their own modules that would work in a standard motherboard then.

>>12654
>While I'm at it, why can't we have open source CPU designs at all, like we do with 40xx and 74xx chips, where different manufacturers make functionally identical products?
I believe this is the goal of RISC-V, a silicon project which is just getting rolling this year.
Qualcomm, Samsung, nVidia, Western Digital, have all invested in it, so it's possible that there'll be more competition for consumers in the area of CPUs; there's also Sifive and Lo-risc which I believe are companies more committed to actual open-sourcing.

Normal people however can't make their own CPU in their garage---it takes highly advanced equipment, controlled space, and enormous amounts of money.

>>12653
>We're hitting the limits of silicon, and quantum computers require massive amounts of energy to keep the conditions correct.
>Photonics looks like the only way forward.
An argument I don't find too bad from quantum enthusiasts is that 60 years ago, electric computers took up entire rooms, and now they fit into the palms of hands.
Obviously there's limitations that restrict the potential mobility of quantum computers no matter what, but it's possible that a consumer could get a fridge-sized quantum computer in their own homes some decades from now.

But that is far off. If you want better personal computing now, I see nothing more promising than optical computers.

>the ability to have multiple processors for different tasks in a standard level computer would be incredible. It will never happen, because most users don't care for solving NP-Hard problems, though.
It won't be available for "most consumers" in the first place. Windows is over and Macintosh will never get off silicon. These computers are going to run OS that won't be geared toward non-professionals; and so they won't be the target market initially.
