  • Ask HN: Show me your Half Baked project
    154 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 9 Jan 2021
    Half-baked as in eating it can cause gastric problems, not as in 50% done?

    https://github.com/hadrianw/werf a graphical mouse driven text editor inspired by Plan 9's acme. It can open quite big files, you can WIMP around a bit, but README is just wishful thinking, it can't even save files. Written in C with cairo and fontconfig. Currently for a few years I'm in process of rewriting text buffer, I have something nice, but did not test it enough and did not integrate it. Now I'm thinking of a rewrite in Zig to learn it and also make it easier to test. But that's my wishful thinking again.

    https://github.com/hadrianw/tomatoaster a ChromeOS like Linux distribution based on Void Linux build system, AB partition scheme, building squashfs image without root privileges. Currently I did a nice and almost proper script to handle it and do not need to patch as match to build an image, that runs, but is not entirely useful. Need to clean-up the script and commit. Mostly bash, bunch of patches and config files and a bit of C.

    https://github.com/hadrianw/abracabra a search engine, that will not index pages with ads (all results would be uBlock-Origin clean), that is not yet even a proper pipeline to check whether a page does contain ads or not, no crawler yet at all. I want to go through Common Crawl archives first. I did something in Go first (https://github.com/hadrianw/abracabra-legacy), but now I'm rewriting it in Rust, because of awesome lol_html crate, that will make filtering fast and easy. Currently writing code to filter URLs with Rabin-Karp and a bit of loops. It created an e-mail thread years ago with people wanting to help, but I've been too slow.

    I don't want much help to code things, I would appreciate however a bit of pointers on a couple of things regarding Rust and watchdogs (to recognize a partition as unbootable and reset the system to the previous partition).

  • Be Anonymous
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 20 Feb 2022
    Some of the anonymous advice here is pretty poor and recommends centralized services that require some level of identification.

    If you actually need to be anonymous the daunting but doable tactics on https://anonymousplanet.org/ are a much better bet.

    Said you shouldn't download Signal because it makes you stand out and attracts attention. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IWMZ17Iyu3o Said that you shouldn't use ANY two factor because they're designed to track you, even software 2FA. Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ChKpf5HjcSY (He also says in this video that it's okay to let Google collect data about you as long as they don't tie it to a real world identity, even though the more data you give Google, the easier they can ID you.) Said that you should keep a "real identity" where you "pretend to be a sheep." Make Google searches for things you don't believe in, post tweets/statuses that you don't actually believe but perpetuate the prevailing narrative. AKA: look like you agree with the masses. Meanwhile, keep a second anonymous identity. (Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8lHsIf6aA8) This is incredibly stupid. First, it doesn't work (source: https://lifehacker.com/generating-a-bunch-of-internet-noise-isnt-going-to-hi-1793898833), second you can easily burn an "anonymous" identity by accident and now it's linked to your real identity. True digital anonymity is almost (not 100%, but damn near) impossible. (Source: https://anonymousplanet.org/) His entire VPN video is just riddled with bullshit like saying that VPNs block email, block monetization, and that it's better to use a server in the US because of 4th Amendment Protections (worked so well in the past, right?) (Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OHfVPgLMMUQ). He then goes on to sell a "VPN router" in his shop that routes all your traffic over Tor - which means that your home internet may be slow, many common websites will probably block you, and as soon as you sign into anything you've lost all anonymity.

  • Set up my own VPN | How to use it the right way?
    1 project | /r/VPN | 29 Dec 2021
    Oh I thought bit launch was some bit exchange/management company or software, so I guess you see why I was telling you to isolated it to an incognito session+VPN. When you exit an incognito session it wipes all cookies, browser storage, etc for that session. However, I think you have to completely close the session, if you have more tabs open that data is probably still around until you completely close the browser. That's why if you use a second browser you're even more safe because you will think of it as a separate "thing" in your mind and be sure to manage it separately. Tor browser is a notch above that. If you don't resize it, you look like a million other tor-browser sessions (yes your browser reports it's "size" back to servers so they can figure out how to space things, and lots of times to finger print you). VPN gives you another layer in that it hides your IP (make sure to go to dnsleak.com and make sure you dns queries aren't leaking to your ISP's nameserver). This document is a bit paranoid, but I feel it has some good info and more than I am gonna type lol. https://anonymousplanet.org/ take from it what you need.
