Define a huge amount of LEDs. You can get WS2812Bs in strips of 5 meters at a density of 144/meter.

You can leave it as a strip or make matrices from them.

Is there possible to organize a coup in the Third world country (mainly african) using large botnets of compromised devices. In my opinion, the possible strategy can be next. Firstly, you can ddos main internet providers in country. Secondly, you can spread fake news in social media using fake accounts about failed government trying to break internet and revolution in country. Is this possible?

>>59367331
Semi okay plot with 'borrowed' visuals from a lot of cyb sources (GITS, Dark City, etc). Idk what to tell you. It was a big budget cyb(ish) action movie with Bullet Time (tm).

>>59368039
thanks i guess. i really was expecting more desu

>>59367952
You actually live in a third world country?
If so you need to read some history of your country.
If not you need to understand that the reason third world governments don't simply shoot people is because bullets are expensive and you can't receive good bribes with arms suppliers.

I remember in the last thread there was a lot of discussion about how, even though our (western) society has most of the hallmarks of cyberpunk, it doesn't really look like what cyberpunk societies are always depicted as.
What I think needs to be remembered is that even with all the corruption in our world, lots of places still have pretty strict construction/building codes and regulations, making shit like pic related not very viable in New York or Chicago or wherever.

>>59369966
Alleyways are usually private property of the owner of the buildings they're between. You would probably have to make a deal with someone who owns an alley, or just squat there

>>59367952
>Is there possible to organize a coup in the Third world country (mainly african) using large botnets of compromised devices.
Unlikely.

These countries are run by immense paperwork that required stamps and signatures all over the place, a system that is typical of countries and cultures where people will not trust each other. I deal with such cases regularly.

You will not reach sensitive enough data with a botnet simply because the files are paper files.

>>59372365
>>59372365
The mega is just what I'm using to work out the kinks in that 40x4 LCD. I might use an atmel chip to drive it in the end, but it'll probably be a slave to an rpi zero or rpi compute module if I can convince myself to get one of those. I'm using the screen because all I really want to start with is a terminal, and it fits really well in the case.

leds are more power efficient than traditional bulbs, so I'm sure if you switched out your bulbs to a low-light ambient led scheme, you'd save a bit of money

I don't know about lighting up your room like a christmas tree, though

>>59373784
But leds won't give same feeling than neons and crt monitors give.

>>59373799
led backlighting is a comfy feel, especially when you can wirelessly change the colors

I think I stumbled into a cyberpunk-ish conspiracy
I tried using my moms computer, I found files that might be... illicit like an illegal download. This cybercrime could span multiple states or even across the world who knows where this came from. It's only a few MB of info. I don't think she's the culprit. I think someone gained access to her system, real covert espionage type stuff, then did their illicit things. I suspect maybe her boyfriend. Should I report them both to the NSA/CIA/FBI? How do I do it anonymously so I don't get caught. What if there is a keylogger on here?

>>59373827
I believe you, but it is not the same feel, once again. I don't want my room or furniture look like literally whatever todays room.

The feel and backlight CRTs, Neon, Halogens and that kind of light gives, it can't be given with LEDs.

Hey /g/ Indian cyberpunk here, I live in Delhi and we got a place called "palika bazaar" which is my to-go place for any sort of cyberpunk project. Its an underground market (literally) and near the entrance you have your comic book stores and electronic thrifts and whatnot but once you go deeper inside you'll find a ton of deepweb-cybercafés (basically computers with tor), console/PC modders, stolen electronics, Pirated videogames etc. And the constant sight of endless fibre cables running overhead adds an amazing touch. I'll post an album of my project pretty soon, will post on /g/ maybe?

Keyboard has sweet clicks and you can't beat the green backlit monochrome lcd.

But what the hell is this little foam strip used to connect the mainboard to the keyboard and lcd?
Should I reuse it? I only need the keyboard and lcd; not the boards on the right. How else would I connect to the ribbon cable?

Info on what this conductive foam is and where to get some?

This is far fetched but I think I remember from some time a general or pastebin or wiki article espousing a type of music file format as "authentic cyberpunk music". This file format was digital and (I think) stored instrument data rather than soundwaves (kinda like midi except it wasn't midi) and there was some website where a bunch of these user made tracks were hosted and rated by other memebers.

It's a foam block with little wires going through the middle. I'm guessing there's two lines, one to get the keyboard to the mobo, and one to get the mobo to the LCD.
If you can solder that small, do, but perhaps either get two flex cables made, one to connect to each, or, much easier, a small rectangular PCB with the sole job of pressing onto the foam where the motherboard originally did, and breaking out the traces. You could even throw an AVR on it if you wanted.

Neuromancer is so street and ghetto. All the dialogue is like an old rap video. I cant make myself like it.

>>59376036
Check the OP, there's a new pastebin with a shitton of books.

As for my personal taste, which pushed me into cyb was:

>Matrix
>Alien and Predator (although I guess someone would say is plain sci-fi)
>Neuromancer trilogy
>Ergo Proxy (dense for MY taste, I'm not very smart)
>Jhonny Mnemonic
>Shadowrun
>Mirror's Edge
>E.Y.E Divine Cybermancy (although I need to try it agian)
>Deus Ex
>Half-Life (I think it has the oppresion through technology thing, open to debate)
>Hard Reset
>Elysium
>Equilibrium

I'm open to debate of a few things that I said are plain Sci-Fi, but this is more or less what it made me go into cyb

>>59379534
I forgot about Blade Runner, I have to download it.

>>59379882
Stuff like half life(2)'s still cyberpunk, just because you throw aliens into the mix.
And mirror's edge is only good once you're familiar enough with cyb that you can sit back and have a nice hearty chuckle at the whole thing.

>>59379882
Damn son good mix

>>59380008
Yes, I'm agree. Although I was in doubt since I don't really know if people disjoin Sci-Fi form Cyb. Like Alien and Predator, for example, don't have that feel of opression through tech, but alien movies (the good ones) happen because some bigass company want the Xenomorph to them.

>>59380028

>conductive foam
That doesn't sound right. For foam to be conductive it'd have to be made of an alloy and that's sort of a new thing, not common in electronics. It's probably insulation or shielding of some type.

>>59381944
It's not surprising people would hate it, the matrix really did draw off a lot of sources- tron like I was sarcastically saying, bullet time from max payne, all sorts of stuff. It was getting spoofed endlessly though in movies for years after it came out though. A lot of the things it drew off of were not things a lot of normal people would of been familiar with in other media so they see the concepts and like it but if they noticed it in a video game like max payne or something they'd be like ''why are you wasting your time on video games?''

>>59378918
I just found the first 1/4th of the book super difficult to get past at first because a lot of the stuff was unexplained, but after that I really started to like it since the dialog and interaction between characters was pretty good where the other part of the story felt like it was sort of strung together rather loosely. Comes together nicely at the end really hard to put it down and not keep reading since there is at least one unexplained mystery on the difference between two things that are conflicting in the novel.

In fact, I would recommend you watch the movies after watching the tv shows, and then continuing on to other movies/incarnations and whatnot.

If you are looking for the looks and aesthetics you could check up the cyberpunk tag on Deviantart. Then again blue jeans will be worn for the foreseeable future.

If you are looking for functionality you might look into future soldier wear and drop the camo. There is still a lot of tech like wear protection, EMP shields etc. Or you might look into wear for out door life but without the garish colouring.

Neons aren't really all that bad for electric costs, but they are way higher than LEDs. For me to make neons I would need a bombarding transformer, which would need an industrial electrical hookup in my house. I don't think zoning laws would allow that, and I don't think my wife would either.

>>59388009

>>59388206

That block happens to us all. Look to other art, read, or just day dream to get inspiration. Hell, just start doodling.

>>59388225
Yeah, I never though for a second on making neons, at least as a main target. I would buy them done, but I still think a neon running 24/7 is way higher than a PC 24/7.

>>59388225
LED strips in their curent state are not going to be neon for sure. They lack spectrum and proper dissipation.

>>59388225
I already have a notebook full of ideas. But imo nobody is capable of creating something truly new. It's always a combination or variation of something you've already seen. Anything new is therefor a copy of something existing, to some extent.

My initial request was concerning sewing as I'm new to it and don't really know where to start. It's not like I could google it, there's almost nothing on sewing for men except for the tailored kind of appeal.
It's fairly easy to find patterns for hiking and outdoors equipment though.

>>59388356
Try from cosplay sewers club or something.
There are forums dedicated to it, then look for more functional stuff and practice yourself.

>>59384827
I'm a fashion fag.
Look into urban techware.
The most notable brand being Yohji Yamamoto. His stuff is designer so it's really pricey though. If you don't want to drop a metric fuck ton of money on clothes (i dont blame you) you can use his designs as inspiration.

>>59388447
I'm a poorfag, and I think he could take the design inspiration from ACRNM too, although idk how good it is.

>>59388299

I wanted so bad to make my own, but the bombarding transformer was a deal breaker. Everything else I can find, afford, and have installed at the house.

>>59388313

I disagree on lacking spectrum, and I'm working on dissipation. However, they do lack temperature which I don't think I can substitute. So they will never truly look 100% like neons, but I think I can get something close that will soothe my autism.

>>59388356

Doesn't matter if it's new, a variation, or even a direct copy. Soon enough you will find out what you like and develop your own style.

>>59388447

I'm thinking, same as there's people who have forges at home, they had to start somewhere, and maybe they could reach some kind of "forge rent". I'm thinking maybe you could try to search some kind of lab or something to rent.

>It's an acceptable theory that the Matrix [spoiler]has at least three levels within the trilogy with Zion's world being level 2[/spoiler]
The matrix is inception: the theory. If the matrix is a matrix in the matrix, why isn't it just another matrix in a matrix. The architect wouldn't of needed to take the failed versions down they could just build more matrixs in the matrix

>>59388724
I was about to refute your theory, but I guess you have right in the 90%.

The points which remains would be how to make a matrix in the matrix, and how to handle the exception The Choosen One is, assuming he's the Choosen in the matrix, and no in the matrix outside the matrix.

>>59388724
Assume the third level is actual reality.
Second level is Zion and black sky. This is a simulation.
First level is the Matrix itself, an admittedly simplistic simulation barely able to recreate reality.

On the other hand the Matrix and Zion could both be part of the same simulation and Neo ending the war could be a real person's compiler finally finishing without errors.

Do you have a theory as to why Neo could blow up the sentinels and see code while outside of the Matrix?

>>59388877
Theory I read for neo being able to do that stuff out of the matrix is the implants, you see most of them get removed but he might still have a wifi connection implant in there, and it's running some programs- like why he can see smith and other robots when he's blind he's running off the implant detecting things and becomes more aware of it and how to manipulate it like in the first film when it clicked and he could just stop bullets. In the first film he questions tankchong about not having implants he might of just been the chosen one because the machines when prepping him with implants to go in the fat hit some random program code that gave him extra implants compared to other people when the last 'chosen one' decided to renew the matrix he just happened to be born at the right time where the robots would of been looking to create another anomaly as they know what time it needs to happen.

>>59388754
I just never bought into the theory, they have their own training simulation programs that are just like a matrix but I think the biggest give away was how they said they can't put people back into the matrix like cypher.
The only way another level of the matrix running in a virtual machine of the matrix having a second level would be convincing people the world sucks so bad (the animatrix even kind of fills in stuff happening between movies and before) that they should just choose to stay in the matrix even if they knew what it was and the humans won or had a truce with the robots as their existence sucked and they were just trying to get the robots to stop trying to kill them since they didn't fit in the matrix. I'm pretty sure zion only existed for people that rejected the improved matrix program like they did with the older versions as they mention they already destroyed zion before, someone has to keep repopulating it and teaching people how to keep it functioning using the machinery there and stuff.

We love technology. It has always been a huge part of human life. What cyberpunk is against is oppressive use of technology - megalomanic power-abuse done by magecorporations, etc. For example, cyberpunks would like a bionic eye which could zoom, but would not like the state/corporations to be able to record what that eye sees. Hope this made sense.

>Theory I read for neo being able to do that stuff out of the matrix is the implants,
Problem with that theory is there are a few times where he demonstrates those powers at ranges outside the Matrix reach.
Of course, the story itself has likely ignored that facet of physics entirely given anything that happened in the 2nd and 3rd films.
I remember when Broadcast Depth was a thing.
Whenever they hacked the Matrix, they needed to get close enough to it, which is why it was dangerous.
Equally they couldn't go too far away when someone was still connected or they'd be RIP'd when packet loss happened.

This is why it almost certainly is a second simulation layer that gives them a constant struggle to survive.
But because the Matrix requires to be reset on The One completing his mission to the Architect, it makes no fucking sense.
Unless, unless he is actually speaking about Zion being reset, not the Matrix. That part was ambiguous.
BUT, the French man makes reference to predecessors, as does the Architect. Architect only stated the original versions of the Matrix collapsing because they were against human nature, they were too perfect.
Then conflict was added by the Oracle, which were otherwise pretty successful.
Then he went on about the Zion stuff like it was routine.
So it seems like The Real World is in fact another Matrix layer. Once they escape their virtual jail, they stop resisting the programming because they see how much of a fucking shitheap the real world is.

>>59396844
What? No Mohawk??

>>59397727
Speaking about the last paragraph, I'm not agree on Zion being another layer. As I understood by Architect words, Zion was a mean necesary to handle the anomaly The One is. So, it is a real city with people who rejected matrix or was born outside of it, which it is used as a mean to control The One.

>As I was saying, she stumbled upon a solution whereby nearly 99.9% of all test subjects accepted the program, as long as they were given a choice, even if they were only aware of the choice at a near unconscious level. While this answer functioned, it was obviously fundamentally flawed, thus creating the otherwise contradictory systemic anomaly, that if left unchecked might threaten the system itself. Ergo, those that refused the program, while a minority, if unchecked, would constitute an escalating probability of disaster.

I think based in this text, The Architect understood that the best way of handling The One and the other possible people who reject Matrix, is to let them out, build a city, and force The One to rebuild it every certain time.

Although, I don't know what the matter behind forcing The One to rebuild Zion, beside of the control matter.

>>59398028
Re-reading the text, I reach the conclusion that the matter behind rebuilding Zion again and again, is to drive The One to keep that 0.01% undercontrol pressing him with killing the human race.

Like instead of just The One dancing around in Matrix, he tries to give him a mission, which is to drive the minorities a city again and again so they don't bother, which fails in this 6th last try, since as he said:

>Your five predecessors were by design based on a similar predication, a contingent affirmation that was meant to create a profound attachment to the rest of your species, facilitating the function of the one. While the others experienced this in a very general way, your experience is far more specific. Vis-a-vis, love.

>>59398028
>>59398071
See, I used to think this as well.

But the huge issue with Neo magically being connected to the Matrix despite being deep under ground well away from any receivers is what bothers me about the idea.

They just glossed over a huge component of the basis of WHY they even bother getting closer to the Matrix when they could stay far away and still hack it.
Don't need to be at the city, just anywhere far away in any other direction.
But they didn't because it was already established they need to get close to hack in, hence the danger of it.

2 either retconned that, ignored it horribly, or The Real World was another Matrix layer to make them think they have gotten out.
To be honest, I'm going with the middle.
They probably just got lazy. 2 and 3 were so inferior to the 1st film in terms of writing.

When the robots get closer his wifi signal piggy backs off it, he's the chosen one, his implants have programs/tech to over ride the robots. Just like in the matrix he can change the programming and manipulate it. He basically got sudo command but is learning all the commands and switches to go along with it. While the robots and programs themselves are all fighting one another and appear to run a unified program you can't tell who is actually working for the architect aside from the agents or anyone he can tap to be an agent. Maybe I'm wrong about neo because there is clearly a range limit he can manipulate the robots outside the matrix you can see it when they fly the ship getting to the source, neo going blind just made him figure out he doesnt have sudo he's logged in as root, smith has sudo. it's like how he can infect people outside the matrix through their implants there is something there where they download their programs into their brains they don't forget kung fu or how to use helicopters when they log out. What I find really confusing is what the source program is, it is directing all the bots on the outside especially just to make that face to talk with neo, but doesn't seem to be the architect. There are a lot of competing programs going on in the matrix. Like the merovingian he was one of the predecessors he was talking about. Some of them co-operate, some of them fall out of use but don't get deleted like the train man but they still run around the system. Clearly the architect works closely with the source. Oracle use to also but fell out of use. The whole train scene sort of explained this the oracle should of been one of the programs slated for deletion but programs when they become useless still don't want to get deleted.

How do the sentinels get there then?

>>59403337
>How do the sentinels get there then?
I think the whole signals thing kind of is why zion isn't another matrix, it's the real world just that it's run by machines with older programming that decided they'd won enough in the war to just run experiments with what's left of humanity. Clearly they're two different types of machines, archetype is just a program interested in keeping the matrix going as that is what he was programmed for. Source is more interested in negotiating with neo.
Actually I think the things that pull apart the theory is the architect and the source. If it were just another matrix the architect would of been present there, even smith figured out how to get out. If it were another matrix it'd have the architect and not the source.

>>59401413

The real break-through is the conductive/machine washable/dryable thread. Combine this with one of the many small/wearable arduinos, or an RPi Zero/W and some sensors, the possibilites are only limited by the creativity of the designer. Very real possibilties that come to mind are proximity alert sensors, (read someone attempting to approach you from behind), who can be deterred with tazser panels woaven into strategic areas of the clothing, anti-camera IR 'cloaking' devices that can blind cmos cameras, I can go on... The trick is to incorporated the electronics into the clothing in such a way that the clothes can be treated like clothing wiothout worrying about the electronics breaking through nomal wear, or even rough useage. We need to develope creative cyber-sewing skills to successfully integrate desired electronics with the clothes. This will require cybergirrls, cybermoms, and fashion artisans to learn to work with these new textiles and experiment with designs.

I don't know if it's the correct thread. I actually have to disappear from the radar. Advices?

>Ergo Proxy (dense for MY taste, I'm not very smart)
Ergo proxy is one of those series that deserves -IMHO- to be watched several times and in every instance of it you'll discover new things and will have many of those "AHA!" moments

Yeah its dense, but you dont have to feel bad to catch it alll it offers on your first watch, most people -including me- dont.

>Shadowrun
I just ran across the 3 PC games. Good games overall but I felt that the 3rd one have the most problems, but primarly the difficulty of the battles are not adjusted correctly as the story advances.

But hey, I now got why some many people have these games in its "tour de force" cyb game lists

>Half-Life (I think it has the oppresion through technology thing, open to debate)

Hey! Shadowrun is "cyb + magic" and still holds high regard in cyb lists, so I dont see why not half life's "cyb + alien invasion / resistance" could not be the same. Ok, lets say that half life is more alien invasion / resistance centered but the use of advanced tech and the shitty atmosphere that its abuse brings are cyb elements.

>>59380236

definitely, but I still dont complete it. I tried when it was released, but back then the fansub scene was way different of what we have today, so I ended with a crappy fansub and its heavily depressive setup made it not my cup of tea.

>so I dont see why not half life's "cyb + alien invasion / resistance" could not be the sa
Well, I though more on the fact that it is apocalyptic and maybe some anons won't agree with being "just cyb".

Also I don't think I got satisfied with Ergo Proxy, it has (for me) a slow narrative rythm and make me feel the episodes were so long. Although I won't say "it is bad" ever. Lain is bad, for me (that's why I didn't mention it)

>>59385126
GITS, in its many visual incarnations are based on the original manga in one way or another.

The 90's iconic OVA is the prime exambple obviously, but many episodes of stand alone complex and 2nd gig come from themes layed out in the manga.

I would say that you read the manga first, then watch the original OVA, and then stand alone complex then 2nds gig and then solid state society.

lets not forget Gits 2 innocence, which happens as a direct sequel of the original OVA.

wait, where does that leave stand alone complex, 2nd gig and solid state society? Stand alone complex is NOT a direct sequel to GITS, but a "what if" in which the protagonist dont meet with the "Puppet master", or better said, in which the puppet master does not exist at all.

Gits 2: Innocence happens in the same universe that the original OVA offered, the major met with the puppet master and takes it from there.

>>59385371

>>59400470
If you mean Art Deco is your cup of tea, then you MUST see Mteropolis (2001) which is loosely based on the 1927 one.

If you're not doing anything illegal it's totally fine to disappear or fake your own death. Try googling it, there is a lot of info.

Because that is some movie meme tier advice that makes no sense.

>they find a pile of money on you and no / fake id
>money gets confiscated and you get held in jail because they think you're a drug mule/dealer
>you get let out of jail after public defender gets appointed to you because you couldn't afford representation and pissed off the judge at plea hearing so you got stuck in there for an extra month or two
>you finally get out after half a year
>you have to sue them to get the money back, you have no money in bank account to sue

Seriously I'm honestly wondering if you even pay your own bills with that kind of advice.

Who do you think is tracking your phone? Change your number that gets rid of most people. You been watching that will smith too many times. What's that one called again with gene hackman?

>>59406506
Why would someone ask you for your number for signing something?
I would say more, if you're trying to dissapear why would you sign anything?

And the fuck is that second wall of text? You told me I'm meme movie tier and you made up a story by yourself? wtf man

>Who do you think is tracking your phone?
I don't fucking know? I assumed authorities since anon only asked for general tips. Do you want me to guess his life with a fucking question?

>And the fuck is that second wall of text? You told me I'm meme movie tier and you made up a story by yourself? wtf man
I have a healthy imagination. I'm just surprised it didn't turn into a lesbian sex story.

A lot of stuff requires an address and phone number these days. There is nothing illegal about wanting to disappear, what if he wanted to get away from criminals and do his own witness protection program. There are people wanna leave their spouse and never see them again. If you automatically think it's something illegal or whatever that's just a weird assumption. Maybe they're just tired of getting so many friend requests on facebook?

>>59407693
>I'm just surprised it didn't turn into a lesbian sex story.
This made me chuckle.

Well at least you have a fair point. As I said I never though on dissapear, but knowing what I usually do, I think (for me) avoiding phone and internet will make me the 90% of it. Of course it has nothing bad to do, but as "radar" I understood "they trying (or getting) tracking me" that's why I assumed the phone would be a good thing.

As you said, if they're not going tryhard, other number/prepaid phone would be more than enough. Although depending on country, you won't need the number for a lot of things. Maybe anon should give us more detail of his request?

>>59369575

>>59407978
>Maybe anon should give us more detail of his request?
I really doubt someone asking about disappearing is going to show back up to answer a bunch of questions.

Disappearing seems nearly impossible now with the amount of smart phones and internet terminals everywhere it's just an eventuality that if you go out anywhere in public someone is going to recognize you or catch you in a photo and share it online in a place somewhere someone could recognize you would see it. I have a few theories about it but haven't really tried yet. So far I've found even moving halfway across a country isn't enough on its own.

Why a cd and not a usb?
Partly tried this out to test the concept.. why I have a 32bit, most 64 are backward compatible linux livedrive I spent a few days trying to find the right distro that fit a few parameters I wanted, I screwed up though formatting the usb. It's not a huge one and I just parted it in half but the thing has has problems I added 1 gig ram more than it can handle without memory problems to the partition. That was just a minor user error but the real problem with it and gave up on that idea and am just turning it into a recovery thing like going to add some anti virus recovery type programs to it. With a USB it's easier to boot up the OS you want to use and modify it but playing around with different OS' it will really occur to you quick hardware drivers and software stuff you'd need a ton of it for different cards pre downloaded on the os, if it doesn't have a card and that doesn't work you can't use a smart phone to generate a wifi hotspot. I just makes more sense to have your own laptop to lug around or a tablet.

>>59413409
I think a sequel would be interesting. The guy was trolling though jj abrams is way too busy to cgi another reboot.

>>59403337
>How do the sentinels get there then?
Via conveniently ignoring their own story.
Matrix had a fuckload of unexplained bits they glossed over several times.

Although, admiitedly, the piggyback idea could possibly work.
It could also explain why Neo collapses after he shits on the robots.
BUT, why would his mind still be in the Matrix and his body show signs of being jacked in despite not. (and there are no robots nearby for piggyback)

As for reboot, hopefully they make things a little less retarded in that area. Or secretive. So much of 2 and 3 was heavily open to interpretation. (especially fucking 3, why in gods name did his fucking mouth glow IN THE REAL WORLD, there is no physical or virtual reason to!)

>>59407693
>A lot of stuff requires an address and phone number these days
wat. Where are you?
Even here in cUcKistan, never seen that happen before.
Only places where that usually applies is online-shit, deliveries and such. And you can usually get PO Boxes for most online stuff, or send it to someones address you know is on holiday / out and intersect the person delivering.

>>59414200
>Why a cd and not a usb?
Not him but a CD is far safer. A USB can hide a lot of things you might not know about until it is too late.

Also a CD is immutable once burned, unless CD-RW of course but that would not be a good idea.

>>59414238
Unless you fully open the USB stick and install custom firmware.
Really cool example was someone installed a custom web server on one of those wireless flash cards you can get for cameras and the like.

Equally you can get them with read-only switches. Although I am not sure if that is in software or hardware. Most likely software.
If I remember correct, the 2 data pins on USB require signal, they don't exactly act as read/write pins, so you can't just disable one line and expect it to work.

Biggest issue with using an immutable storage is you will also need an actual storage device in case of REASONS.
And whether that is a remote computer or portable storage, it is always open to interception by the hardware you are using.
IntelME, for example, every software function goes through it, regardless of OS.
Since it has already been ripped apart just recently, it is very likely already actively being used in the wild by people with more resources.

>>59414219
Are you talking about his mind being in at the very end and his body? His body died. He's basically just a program. The kid from the animatrix that piloted the mech in the last movie is what I suspected was going to be the next neo it's pretty heavily hinted at, the fucking second/third movie made fuck all sense without seeing the animatrix. If my buddy hadn't made me watch it I would of skipped it. wouldn't be surprised if neo is just a program main villain endsup being someone in zion a captain or something and neo ends up infecting them taking over there body like smith was doing.

>wat. Where are you?

>>59414238
that's over paranoia I felt I might be taking all the fun out of it telling you about the hardware failures making it a somewhat pointless idea aside from a recovery drive. If you want to be spoonfed you can run jail/sandboxes and configure the OS which you select to run on boot to not save any changes. sure something *could* get onto the stick but when you're booting it up and selecting your own OS to run off it there is no reason why it should get infected that I can think about aside from one thing as long as you're not pulling data off it and just trying to fix it but the thing I'm thinking of is pretty much undetectable and unfixable. since you're running totally off the ram and not the disk it shouldn't be an issue. At that level of paranoia you should be rewriting the bios for the ramstick that came from the factory. I'm not an expert computer user or anything though so take it with a grain of salt.

>>59414522
>that's over paranoia
>>59414238
now that I thought about it a bit more the stick is partitioned in two parts. The stick I used had almost a full gb missing. info which could of been hidden stuff written on it but when I zero'd it with multiple passes, it only gained like 1mb which was the same as another stick that came with the bundle that I just wiped the info formating. But digressing it had two partitions on it, 1 with the OS, one blank side of free space. I can df- and get the exact size of the first partition and write that down and save it to not record anything so even var/log files shouldn't be taking up extra space, then subtracting the size of the first partition I set up, and the gap of what I started with zero'd out if any space gets taken up and either value changes something got written on it.

I'd say its a little overrated actually, going by the IMDB score.
Was definitely "hacker" rather than "cyberpunk"

>>59421213
oh man didn't know that lol, now i separated hv traces from low voltage with copper sides.

Top side: no gnd plane, all hv traces
bottom side: full gnd plane, no hv traces

how does it sounds?

>>59421292

There is a calculator out there about how far to keep traces of varying voltages depending on the difference in voltage between them. If I remember the calculations I did for mine it was something like 1/4 inch at least between any ground or low voltage lines to prevent PD. If you're going to solder mask the HV side you may need to increase that slightly.
