I really think you should use: find ... -exec perl -lne "fancy stuff" {} + because for one it doesn't mess with stdin, and for another you don't have to worry about filenames with spaces or newlines in them. I a

Hi. I checked your profile and it says you like to be referred to as a "black hat hacker" who is being "pursued by multiple agencies". Can you explain exactly what you hope to do with this knowledge? Or is it not obvious

Take care with this. Some people are putting sneaky code in that detects if your regular non-proxied access will receive some other network path via a .onion domain. It is not clear to me what exactly they are doing with this knowledge.

Agreed. I feel like it's probably a Google VP who works on Gemini astroturfing.

I think the point is to disable defender: Air-gapped machines, kiosks, industrial applications, and so on, have no need to eat gobs of ram and waste loads of cpu checking the same files over and over again. For other applications, WD provid

Fun. Mind if I ask what you were preemptively doing? If you ever get a time machine: The SSC could make an interrupt. So could the Microsoft card. There was also something called the Thunderclock card that could do like 100hz.

I think the reason this is hard is because your eye only thinks it is seeing the change occur after you touch, but it's just seeing the change occur after the decision to touch which isn't the same thing at all. Maybe not all

No they really don't. fallocate() failing is exactly the same as write() failing from the perspective of the user, because the disk is still full, and the user/operator responds exactly the same way (by waiting for cleanup, deleti

Yes things can go wrong. That's the point. The problem is what to do about it. I think if you needed a better example of something you can't defend against in order to get the main idea, that's one thing, but I'm not giv

No. The claim is that it's about as fast as 22519 but stronger than 448, and might be resistant to some specific attacks. If that's true, that is a good thing. But please do not take this as endorsement: I don't think you or

It's easy when the network is working. If it isn't, the 'pusher' continues to fill memory buffers that can take minutes to dequeue. You need constant communication and TCP conspires against you on this. If your flow
