How do people make money off of free software?
Inb4 support. I'm not talking about enterprise level shit but consumer software, something like a nice financial calculator program or a small game.

I'd just like to interject for a moment. The term "consumer," when used to refer to the users of computing, is loaded with assumptions we should reject. Some come from the idea that using the program "consumes" the program, which leads people to impose on copiable digital works the economic conclusions that were drawn about uncopiable material products.

In addition, describing the users of software as "consumers" refers to a framing in which people are limited to selecting between whatever “products” are available in the “market.” There is no room in this framing for the idea that users can directly exercise control over what a program does.

To describe people who are not limited to passive use of works, we suggest terms such as "individuals" and "citizens," rather than "consumers."

What are you working on, /g/?

It's saturday morning, the sun is shining through my window and I'm not cold for the first time since November, probably.

I dare you to point out at least one nice thing about something you usually come here to talk trash about.

I'll start:

I wish my phone had an app store as extensive and open as Androids do.

I'm also genuinely jealous of how some of you guys' desktops with all the minimalistic linux stuff setup looks.

Get comfy, spread some joy on this warm day

I don't really find any tech stuff truly despicable, but I do find the iOS horrible for an efficient use of a phone. Kind of 'hate' it whenever someone passes me one for me to do something for them.

Yet, I have to admit that I enjoy the details of the animations and it's very smooth transitions. The example I have in my mind is the way your newly posted message appears on a message list view, and the way the message box grows when your input becomes multiple rows long.

The new message gradually slides into the list and shifts the rest of the list just as smoothly. On my Lumia 950, they just pop and appear, everything is first here, and there in an instant.

What about the gif in OP? What's the story?
>>
>>59346333
Agree!

>>59346361
I'm biased because I use iOS, but the animations seem to be something most people can agree on looking nice.

I have no idea about the gif, I just stumbled upon it in another thread a long time ago and saved it. I hope the woman just slipped and fell, and didn't actually suffer any injury.

>Is social engineering considered hacking?

yes

most of the great hacks in history have had a social aspect to them

the oldest trick in the book is to get a job as a janitor at your target's place of business and when you clean at night write down all the passwords stickynoted to the side of monitors

most hacks occur when the target fucks up and leaves something vulnerable, not by "beating" encryption or brute forcing a password (although this does happen)

Obviously you should install the imageboard package. Introduce people to imageboard culture, one connect at a time.

As for content, I suggest Death Grips, Aqua Teen Hunger Force, DOOM, QUAKE, and In the Aeroplane Over the Meme. Also: use Squid to change all images into anime reaction images.

>>59345455
Thanks for the suggests. I didn't think about the old games... do you know if I'll need an ISO or if there's a single EXE for them?

I already enabled the Kareha board, so that's a start. I'll look up the other content you mentioned.

>googles piratebox
interesting... i live across the street from a shopping mall and bus terminal. what would be the best setup for high range?

I've been security-aware for quite some time now. Problem is, I think I've reached my limits, despite being told that enough is never enough. (and for me, it isn't)

So, here's my personal arsenal as of right now:
OpenBSD. Use it to access E-Mail, IRC, XMPP, etc. All through TMUX, Xenocara isn't installed. Installed on a P4 (no intel ME). E-Mail is encrypted using GnuPG. XMPP is encrypted using OTR. IRC comms for things like #chat are done over plaintext+SSL. pf is considered reasonably. I use DNSCrypt.

My router. runs fully foss/non-blobbed firmware. I use it as a hardware firewall. Uses WPA2/PSK. Very strong password, obviously.

My "alt-machine"
Runs Debian Sid, uses GrSecurity, hardened sysctl values, generally lots of auditing and security software installed, rkhunter, debsums... etc. Does have XOrg, only purpose is the use of the Tor Browser to view websites Anonymously. I usually use this machine to read the news, check the forecast, and shitpost.

My "main machine"
Debian GNU/Linux. Due to it running stretch, I cannot use GrSec without compiling the kernel. I've made a compromise here and decided to use apparmor instead.

It uses the Pale Moon web browser, with uBlock Origin, HTTPs Everywhere, Self Destructing Cookies, along with Greasemonkey installed. I also use "user.js hardening stuff", not sure of the exact name of the repo. This machine also shares sysctl values with the "alt-machine". It's also filled with auditing software like debsums.

Like the other machines, all DNS queries go through a log-free OpenNIC+DNSCrypt server. All my traffic is forced HTTPs, all HTTP traffic is dropped at the hardware level. I constantly monitor and audit all of these systems for anything suspicious, and maintain them all.

How do you think I could expand upon my personal security hobby, /g/?

>>
>>59345369
What do you use for encryption on your HDDs? Do you encrypt /boot?.

Consider VPS and your own private network with ssh.

What about cryptocurrencies?

Debian has systemd, have you considered Devuan with security patches or Hardened Gentoo?

What phone if any and what measures are you using to protect yourself?

Have you checked the wigle map to see if your wifi network has been added?

What exit nodes do you use when using Tor? I'm skeptical to consider this private and secure, I'd rather ssh to a VPS in a 'safe' and 'privacy valuing' country.

Do you have fake identities to fool NSA/CIA?
