I made a FUD stager the other day using deepseek, and some snippets of code from github shellcode loaders. It's best used with RC4 encrypted Sliver payloads (windows shellcode) over HTTPs. If anyone wants help using it, I'll monitor this thread.

Just substitute your staging URL and RC4 key in the main C file, and cross-compile with MINGW toolchain.

If anyone decides to download and test it on a windows VM, please make sure to disable "Automatic Sample Submission" in Windows Defender

hol up actually, gotta do some debugging to make the newly added AMSI patch work. If you wanna try it as is, just remove the BypassTelemetry from main in stager.c, and compile without the modules. It will still compile and run, and most likely bypass defender.

So not a real privacy pro, those guys would genuinely just stop playing video games in your situation.

You know what annoys me about all these privacy nerds? They always treat privacy like some isolated, abstract thing. They talk a lot about privacy, but they forget what the point of privacy is: minimizing behavioral data. Because the whole point of data extraction is to use it directly to control us! The corpos are mapping our psyches; they're creating digital twins of us to manipulate us! Oh, you use Qubes and Graphene OS? You've gained NOTHING by continuing to use X, YouTube, Amazon, and TikTok! No matter which privacy community you go to, nobody will talk about that. Instead, they talk about long-outdated technologies like browsers and network filters. Hello?! The browser is the least of your problems. The real state-of-the-art data extraction/behavioral manipulation is happening on the big account-based corporation apps like X, TikTok, etc. All these privacy communities are so deceitful because they focus on completely the wrong things.

gentoo is awesome. are you still itt OP?

for me, it's xen and nftables

>>33102
that is why you use a shipping/buying proxy and pay with crypto

>>33278
the feds have already de-anonymized crypto transactions and can do stuff like value matching to find you, crypto already makes you niche which is easier to find and using proxies again, just heightens your risk profile.

Be boring, ship to your own address with your own name - it raises less heat.

>>33279
that's kinda scary, do you have any articles?

also if you are into the topic of this thread check out the one I just made, I am bored

the process they use is basically creating a database of prices of products sold on the darknet then looking for exact matches in purchases or sales for bitcoins to these values adjusted for inflation. They can do end to end analysis.

How do you stop this? You dont, you stop this by never being known to them in the first place.

what's the point if i can't even run it on my rpi server?

To be fair, if this does result in a functional spec and only requires a few cryptographic primitives, i might try my hand at a C implementation with NaCl.

yeah but let's not forget that before the LLM craze was the IDE-dependent, auto-completion, auto-linting, IntelliSense, style guides, etc. craze. all of this stuff kind of has the common goal of taking all conscious human thought out of the coding process and making the human work for the machine instead of the machine work for the human. and now with AI a lot of professional "programmers" aren't even writing code at all anymore, they're just feeding prompts to chatbots to write their code for them, and essentially digging their own graves careerwise.

>>33251

as theo de raadt said, it's basically standard practice in every software project now to "lead with propaganda", the whole software industry is no longer about actually building things, it's about selling things to investors, often things that haven't even been finished (or even started) being built yet.

i think like maybe its a elitism thing, like ohh youre still using gnome you retard? are you retarded? lets get you to be euthanized, etc. its like for the wayland audience

I think Rust (the tech) is good but the Rust community has weird behavior. They insist that everything needs to be rewritten in Rust, which is just stupid. But still I believe that Rust's goals are very good, and most junior C or C++ developers write worse code than junior Rust programmers. The language and the compiler just catches so many bugs.

This thread also reminded me to actually start learning Rust. Here are some resources, if someone is interested…

>>33254
it's always been that way, even scott adams understood that the software industry advanced to the whims of "pointy haired bosses", what's absent here is that tech workers have an incentive to shill technologies they're experienced in because it makes their CVs more valuable, closing the hype circuit. i mean it is what it is, the industry has never ever advanced the correct course.

Hey, thanks. I'm going to unplug from the internet before even opening bittorrent again to mess with it.

helpful link cus u sound like a beginner:

you have to bind to the VPN network interface because DHT is really chatty and even if the VPN drops for 1 second it's enough to cause like 20 minutes of DHT traffic and peer discovery to spam you. Soulseek is good you can check out lucida.su as well.

I've set up my torrent client and vpn client inside containers and the torrent depends on the vpn so if the vpn doesnt start my torrent client also wont start

debian should switch to openrc, gentoo and alpine have been using it for years and it works fine

Sad! I actually like the init part of systemd, but just that

>>32985
Maybe you would enjoy working with SMF. https://utcc.utoronto.ca/~cks/space/blog/solaris/SMFNotGoodInitSystem is a pretty spot-on critique from my brief experience, but it's still a pretty functional and polished init, like most Solaris subsystems.

Hackneyed cursors is the best cursor pack of all time.

That's hilarious.

I'll never understand why AI companies train on user conversations. Most users are retarded.

>I'll never understand why AI companies train on user conversations. Most users are retarded.
yes. also…

chatgpt is making people stupider but only because most people are stupid in the first place

they ask the chatbot a naive and poorly typed question because they don't know how to ask good questions or how to word things properly

and they ask it about a domain with which they have no familiarity or knowledge, so they don't bother to read or understand the answer

then they take that answer and copy paste it to other people who also don't read it

as always people confuse the misuse of a technology for it being useless. even when you point this out, people will say it's useless because it wastes energy. but people also waste energy, and you can run these LLM models locally without using data centers in a house that is solar powered… yet almost nobody does…

the real use for these things is as a springboard for further research, just like wikipedia or google, but with less having to schizophrenically jump between several pages, because what it is really doing is collating information from all over the web in one place for you. it's your job to hunt down the research papers the info is originally taken from and actually read them and make sure they had good methodology. but nobody wants to do that because it's a lot of work. people think tech is supposed to make them not work at all when really it's supposed to make them work faster.

training set is poo

>>33134
That actually sounds like a great reason to train on user conversations.

LibreJS is so fucking stupid. It's as if someone read the evil bit RFC and didn't realize it was meant as an april fools joke.

>>33118
the difference is that China and Korea have communist parties ruling them and you do not

Honestly people would generally be content with a completely controlled life if it meant a life with decent shelter, sustenance and companionship. That's mostly what people need anyways. I also don't think most people would be against things like arranged marriages if it most contentment and stability. I know I probably wouldn't. Most people don't really have much control over their lives nor do they really want to. It's too much work

>the internet crackdown is real, and I very often read that Linux is supposed to be the way out
>the Chinese are managing it fine. they don’t have these silly discussions about Linux, Tor, GrapheneOS and all that nonsense. they are completeky happy with wechat, douiyn and other corpo shit.
Linux is orthogonal to the Internet and privacy question and is actually very useful for China as a basis for their own operating systems so they don't depend on Western operating systems and it's open source so they can modify it at will. Not to mention how useful is Linux as embedded system for various devices.
Linux is also purely practically useful in general outside of political issues simply because of how much you can achieve with that system, it is very pliable.
As for Tor, GrapheneOS and similar stuff - they are useful in the West and Western-aligned countries because there it is in user's interest to escape the state that is currently in the hands of porkies and porky-aligned glowies.
In a socialist country on the other hand they would be only useful for counter-revolutionaries and foreign glowies.
The question is from who you're trying to escape/hide, porky or communist party? In the West porky runs the government, in China it is communist party.
Once a socialist revolution happens in your country Tor and such tools will become useless unless you're a counter-revolutionary. Until then they can be useful to you.

>what use is the darknet or any “alternatives” like Mastodon, Gopher or whatever if there’s no interesting/high-quality content there anyway?
I agree these are not useful in practice currently, merely potentially if things escalate much further forcing many more people to migrate. Pragmatically speaking it is better to use porky monopolies like a parasite that spreads "viruses". Counter-propaganda travels much faster and further on porky controlled platforms simply due to the mass of users.
Like the way Iran has won the propaganda war outside of burgerland because they used burger platforms while Trump has self-isolated himself on his own one-man platform.

What about for porn? They usually don't ban just porn studios (based) but also homemade videos and drawings/erotica

>>33121
>porky or communist party?

they are both the same.
