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

>porky or communist party?

they are both the same.

90% of proprietary software with a linux port only tests on ubuntu and often expects systemd, dbus, etc. to be present.
>there are multiple which are pretty good for software development (e.g. gentoo, nix, guix, etc.)
Good for software development doesn't mean le hacker distro. It means software you need for development is already pre-packaged, which is nearly always the case on debian.

>90% of proprietary software with a linux port only tests on ubuntu and often expects systemd, dbus, etc. to be present.
It's been awhile, last heard Ubuntu was due to be phased out for PopOS! due to the Canonical Amazon deal, or something of the like. Guess shouldn't be surprised about what you're saying anyway.

>It means software you need for development is already pre-packaged, which is nearly always the case on debian.
That's fair, and Devaun (as the distro still run on my non-Mac laptop) is most familiar to me.

I finally got around to setting up my Windows machine configuration follows:

Native Applications and OS:
- Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC
- VSCode
- Outlook
- Office 365
- Microsoft Terminal

Productivity:
- winget
- PowerToys (FancyZones for window management)
- AutoHotkey (Two scripts so far to make tiling near automatic with cursor movement)
- Python

Yesterday I installed a couple more applications:
- VLC
- Syncthing
The latter lets me run sync to my phone, and between my two installs.
This also means having better backups than just my flashdrive.
I also forgot to mention that I ran Shutup10+ on my install.

I couldn't find a suitable thread, so I will post this here.

Thermotrvkvlar bomb. Two years ago my company was talking about partnering with big Chinese organizations. A year ago we pivoted to sucking off Uncle Sam's MIC.

From the map and Wiki article, Michigan and Wisconsin are considering banning VPNs (use custom proxies in Python for full-tunnel control and X25519, Poly1305, ChaCha20 and Kyber for cryptographic post-quantum protection, which is high maintenance but only do this if you absolutely know what you're doing because you can easily fuck something up). Only Mississippi and Florida struck these biometric OS age verification laws down.

My time has come, to smuggle usb thumb drives loaded with Arch across the country.

>>33054
Why did Florida turnt it down? Weren't the Christians the ones actually pushing for this?

what happens in zzzchan? I hear about it but I'm not sure what exactly goes on there time to time.

Tbh theres a lot of posts that could be either a chatbot-generated reply or just one of our very autistic regulars (e.g. wronganon). I just ignore them. If you start calling everyone a bot, you just end up polluting the board

>>32994
the guy doing the bot spamming is also genuinely too autistic and retarded to realize that most of the replies he posted are either shitposts, correctly clocking that it's a bot, or both. only one of them seemed genuinely fooled. ironically that makes him less worth engaging with than the actual bot.

>>32739
>Turns out, it's incredibly easy to fake being a regular here.
Sure but why would anyone bother? 4chan has millions of users in comparison. That said how do you setup a spambot there?

>>33006
he seems to be doing the prompting and submission manually too, imagine having to manually grind the clawdbot apocalypse yourself, what a pathetic retard

they keep deleting your posts, autistic spammer. perhaps you're not cut out for this.

If you used one of these PhD grade levels of research SDR work to turn the FPGA cellular modem into a private 2G network node, the short answer to that is: yes—you can turn that stack into a private 2G (GSM) node, but it only really becomes “sovereign” if you also control the network side (not just the handset PHY). At that point you’re effectively building a micro‑carrier. Let’s map what that actually means.

What “private 2G node” implies: with FPGA Layer 1 (ECP5), SDR front-end like AD9361 / LMS7002M and an open stack like OsmocomBB, you can build either:

Option A — Advanced handset (client)

Connects to someone else’s GSM network
→ still dependent, still constrained

Option B — Private GSM base station (what I'm proposing)

Your device acts as a BTS (tower). Phones connect to you, not a carrier. This is the meaningful shift.

How about a safe way to use a website that DATACENTERNODE autobans virtual private networks for radicals that actually care about infosec

All that work just for your signal to get intercepted anyways by the NSA. Real opsec is ditching ALL ELECTRONIC DEVICES PERIOD.

there are plenty of ways to use a phone while preserving some privacy, this post is a mixture of dunning kruger and FUD enabled by AI. the hard limit is always going to be the fact that the cellphone towers can track you because that's how the technology works
