Red Dead Redemption 2 PEDS_10 and rdr3.resident.rpf corrupted files and mismatch
but... depending on how much effort you want to spend fixing it I might be able to fix your current corrupt files, especially if the corrupt files are only mildly corrupt I could create a '.par2' file from mine (assuming you are on build 1436.28), then you would use MultiPar (i.e. https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/releases ) to scan your files and it will tell me how many blocks you need to fix it and then I could create recovery data with MultiPar. doing this might dramatically lower the amount of data I would have to upload as then you could use MultiPar which will fix your current corrupt files so they match mine identically.

WinRAR zero-day exploited since April to hack trading accounts
MultiPar is the continuation for Windows https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar
And this for Linux https://github.com/animetosho/par2cmdline-turbo

It‘s been more than 2 years that animetosho plead uploaders to stop RAR‘in their Usenet uploads. What are Your thoughts on this in 2023?
* MultiPar supports in-situ repair, which bypasses this problem entirely

unRAID Under the premise of Parity Disk, how to specify to rebuild the specified directory or file?
To detect bitrot I use dynamix file integrity plugin, it compute Blake3 hash for each file, it is stored as extend attribute. You Can choose which share will be covered. For correction i then use par2 files using multipar https://hp.vector.co.jp/authors/VA021385/ https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar (Windows only, par2cmdline for Linux. You could compile from source and add it to unraid if you want, i've done it for testing purpose)
- How does Multi Par works?

How to ensure file integrity?
And last but not less important - make regular parity files of your healthy important data, and store them somewhere. MultiPar is your best friend. Even if your data gets corrupt, with parity files you can restore it to it's former glory. Some limitations will apply, read the manual.

Is there a way to quickly create PAR2 files from the Windows context menu?
This is possible with MultiPar https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar

I need to store a 1MB file for 20 years, would making thousands of copies on a 4.7gb DVD be enough?
More sanely, perhaps, get some M-Disc DVDs (if you can find real ones - apparently they're becoming just normal DVDs) and put one file on each, and then run https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar on it to create parity files. Then store the file, the parity files, and the software you need (MultiPar) on the disc. To be safe, you probably also need to store the DVD burner you used to make it, as those are getting thin on the ground these days.

Best archival medium for 3-10 gig video files?
Note about par2: if one is using a windows system with a nvidia GPU this version of par2 is faster as it speaks CUDA.

Usenet vs Torrents for more results
For any file repairs use multipar, it's still being updated and has gpu acceleration. https://github.com/Yutaka-Sawada/MultiPar/releases

The XZ attack and timeline
29. October 2021 At this point Jia Tan pops up, and the first thing we see from him is an innocuous patch to the xz repository, and while a lot of people believe he started out trying his luck with another library also known as libarchive, this is not the case, I would bet it’s more of a backup looking at the dates, being that there are a few days in between as shown in this commit.
- Zip entry size unset now honors user requested compression level
- Suspicious libarchive pull request

Backdoor in upstream xz/liblzma leading to SSH server compromise
Potentially malicious commit by same author on libarchive: https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive/pull/1609
- WinRAR musste shady werden.

Making Amiga IFF Thumbnails Work in Linux
Full agreement, and with the addition of xpk¹/xfd² as natural extensions to that extensibility too. I see things like xfd supporting xz¹, and I'm simultaneously amazed that it exists and happy that I don't need to do xz {,de}compression on 68k ;)
I guess we have something similar-ish with libarchive⁴, but nobody(including me) has pushed the extra mile to get file dialogs to support random compression and decompression formats.
Beyond OT: I didn't realise how much stuff was still going on at aminet, but I love love LOVE that people are still dropping new car sets for Geoff Crammond's F1GP.
