So suppose the employees of this fictional contractor happen to click on it using their personal cellular devices, and while viewing a blank webpage they notive something is amiss themselves and forward the link to their headquarters in the totally fictional county of Arlington, Virginia, where the employees there use the work PCs to access the website to better investigate what is going on.


If this were to happen this totally fictional person would gain not only the employee's personal cellular MEIDs, makes, and models belonging to the phones used to access said hyperlink, but also several IP addresses which happened to be owned by the aforementioned contractor, Cyveillance Inc....


Now suppose that this person calls this contractor and puts them on the spot. At first they deny. After some explanation of what has just occurred this totally fictional person is told "We cant discuss this with someone who is not our client" and abruptly is hung up on.

CH2: Shit Gets Good:


Within about 2 days of this person confronting this contractor, a neighbor is paid to install a WiFi repeater in their home which is then used by said Intelligence contractor to hack into this person's home Internet. It serves as an access point which is close enough to the protagonist's home internet that it can connect. They not only access the protagonist's home WiFi internet but begin to run exploits on every windows machine in the house, gaining remote administrative rights.


This fictional person notices that there are active VPN tunnels on his machine, and begins running a Network Monitor tool, which logs all internet traffic to a file. After beginning to log all network traffic this person begins doing the best he can to fight off whoever the currently unknown hacker is.


After about two days of booting devices off of the network, closing attacker's VPN tunnels, etc... is has become painfully obvious to Cyveillance Inc that this currently inexperienced network security professional, and this story's protagonist, is fully aware of an intruder's presence on the network and is actively fighting them off to the best of his novice abilities.


Then, he sees something quite astounding: thousands upon thousands of IP addresses connect to his computer simultaneously, making it nearly impossible to discern who is doing what on the machine.


A literal bot-net has connected with the protagonist's home PC. IP's from all over the world. Malaysia, Sweden, UK, Austalia, Germany... All the data on the computer starts getting sent somewhere else. The disk audibly drive spins up at 100% usage, the network activity is maxed out. Worse yet, somehow, the command line terminal stops working; windows commands the protagonist had just been using like 'netstat' begin to return 'unknown command'. Anything this person tries to save locally is instead saved to a network location somewhere else.

>>61316292
Not knowing what to do, this person unplugs the ethernet cable from his computer. In the last few minutes alone over 700MB of information had been taken from the computer and sent somewhere. But where? He can only tell that it was sent to the other side of a VPN tunnel.


This person decides to burn every network log he had captured over the previous two days onto a DVD. In fact, he burns several copies of it. The protagonist then distributes them everywhere he can so that should anything suddenly happen to the person he could be assured there will be at least one surviving copy to tell what had really happened. People this person had not talked to in years unknowingly received copies. Even the local newspaper received one.


So this totally fictional person contacts lawyers and tries to build a case,but there's a problem: The IP addresses and cellular information is intriguing, but the real damning evidence, the network logs may as well be in a different language.. indeed, they are in a different language: binary.


These network logs are not at all user friendly or easily understandable as they are a capture of all of the raw network data which has been transmitted. Literally a collection of binary packets. Even with the assistance of modern software analysis tools they require a literal computer scientist to make sense of, which the protagonist at the time was definitely not, and didn't personally know any.


In the end this fictional person couldn't quite make a damning case for something this radically unheard of, the suing of a nearly-secret government contractor with hard network evidence that may as well be written in Sumerian due to the difficulty of understanding it.


So instead this fictional person begins to spread word about the aforementioned contractor (Cyveillance Inc) all over social media and begins to air their dirty laundry the best this person knows how.

You won't be able to fix this anyway.

I blame open source software. Proprietary is simply better thanks to the profit motive.

Private Internet access

Perfect Privacy

Are there any VPNs you can use on 4chan?

It's portability days are over. Buy an external monitor (~$10 at surplus outlets) and plug it into the video out. Bam you now have a perfectly good desktop.

Your best just to rip the whole screen off and to buy a external monitor like anon said.
Unless you don't mind not being able to close it.

>>61316222
Well, I need a laptop or desktop if i want to pass through college, so that seems like my only option, unless I rip the screen off this one, sell the computer alone, and get a new laptop or desktop (preferably desktop) for college, gaming, drafting, design, etc

It's great if you want something that is secure and just werks. If you're wanting it to be more customizable, however, you'll feel extremely limited by it. The hoops you have to jump through just to add a new ringtone that you made is pretty shit, for example.

>>61316175
>customizable
>ringtone

Why do 99% of Gaydroids look ugly then?

And ringtones are 2005, go kys.

>>61316175
In my experience, Apple products are further from "just werks" than any other products on the market.

Because taste is something that can differ between real people. Not that a sheep like you would know, since the only taste you have is the one tim cuck tells you to have.

best way to learn OpenMP?
need to learn it

>>61316148
openMP is dead, learn chapel.

>>61314126
Significantly larger, but also 5-10 times faster. Keep in mind C can't just print data structures like python, so comparing the entire code size is kind of unfair.

int cmp(const void *ap, const void *bp) {
  int a = *(int*)ap, b = *(int*)bp;
  return (a < b) ? -1 : (a > b);
}
void* generate_primes(int end) {
  char primes[end];
  memset(primes, 0, end*sizeof(char));
  void *set = 0;
  for(int i=2; i<end; i++) {
    if(primes[i]) continue;
    int* p = malloc(sizeof(int));
    tsearch((*p=i, p), &set, &cmp);
    for(int j=2*i; j<end; j+=i) primes[j] = 1;
  }
  return set;
}
char is_circular(int n, void *set) {
  char str[32];
  int l;
  sprintf(str, "%d%n", n, &l);
  for(size_t i=0; i<l-1; i++) {
    str[l+i] = str[i];
    str[l+i+1] = 0;
    int c = atoi(str+i+1);
    if(!tfind(&c, &set, &cmp)) return 0;
  }
  return 1;
}
void show_circ(const void *p, VISIT x, int level) {
  static void* set = 0;
  if(level == -1 && (set = (void*) p)) return;
  if(x==preorder || x==endorder) return;
  int n = **(int**)p;
  if(is_circular(n, set)) printf("%d\n", n);
}
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
  void *set = generate_primes(1000000);
  show_circ(set, 0, -1);
  twalk(set, &show_circ);
  tdestroy(set, &free);
}

I used http://bisqwit.iki.fi/story/howto/openmp/

what the hell are loonixtards gonna do now that windows has the best of both worlds?

>>61316191
Nothing because they don't care. Just like you don't care that you're still alive.

>>61316205
lol got em

It could probably be done with a *monkey script but it will take some work.

I forgot about the exclamation mark but you get the idea

Also qubes, but the secret freebsd/bhyve/jails version going around word of mouth on certain other chans

I have Windows 10 and Ubuntu on my machine. The w10 is for family who are used to it and ubuntu is for me.

>>61316054
This, but I'm thinking about having Ubuntu fuck off and just using Debian with Openbox or some shit. Budgie is kind of shitty.

The Chinese for expecting nogs to have a work ethic & not steal and slack-off even when they're overpaid.

he seemed too nice
the africans were always giggling at him esp the one that he employed

Reference?

Snake oils

I mean... I guess penis pumps are technology...

/g/: A wonderful place

It's time to hang politicians from lamp posts.

>remove laws
>nothing affects no one
>we have achieved perfect society

this is was lolbertardians actually believe

and did someone say roads?

Not to mention, even IF companies complied, criminals and terrorists (and those who use encryption for legitimate privacy) would just start using PGP.

>>61315338
>Strawman.
Laws don't affect criminals, criminals will still break the law, but if you don't catch them, the law doesn't matter.
However, you should still have laws as a basis for punishment.
But you shouldn't bother to have blanket bans, you should focus on addressing the cause of want to use the thing you're trying to ban, in the way you're trying to ban it.
Of course though, because you're a smarmy statist, you just automatically conflate my meaning.
Also, the MUH ROADS argument is profoundly stupid.

There will never be a purely functional system.

Forgive him father he does not know what he says.

Your stateless code runs as a stateful process, in a stateful OS, on stateful hardware.

There will never be a purely functional system.

Just got a 7700k, I have a dark rock 3 on it. 73C with aida 64 at 4.7ghz, voltage left on auto. Case is a fractal design nano s. I have two 140mm fans on intake at 1k rpm, the dark rock 3 at 1400 or 1500rpm, just with the fan that came on it, and a 120mm fan on rear exhaust at 1200rpm. The top moduvent piece of the case is off but has no fans installed, it's just venting. That's pretty decent in my opinion considering it's still almost silent sitting on my desk. What does /g/ think?

Also 1080ti, which one is best. I have a Strix card right now and love it. Dead silent, overclocked slightly and is only hitting 62C in that tiny ass case.

>>61315133
Basically I have 2 options that are exactly the same in price but have exactly the same issue.
1. MSI B350M Gaming Pro MOBO with Corsair RAM that is on QVL but with different capacity (16gb on QVL vs 8gb I can buy that's not)
2. ASRock B350M-HDV and G.Skill Trident Z RAM, same shit there - 16gb version is on QVL and 8gb is not.

Wat do

bump?

>>61315155
Sounds like there's either a problem with your computer, or your Xbox controller.

Sounds like Windows Computer (commonly known as WC) problem. Did you try contacting Microsoft® on the problem?
