Replacing something featurful with something minimal is silly.
Unless those features just plain don’t work well in the 21st century. Looking squarely at X11’s network capabilities here, most of which were designed before encrypted remote access became the norm.
X.Org developers moved to Wayland, they were the ones who made it happen.
But did they bring the same mistakes with them?
Exactly. Custom cloud instance. That’s where you’re using the likes of AWS or Azure to run your machines but you’re in control of all the software and maintenance shit, just like you would be if you self hosted.
If you can do one, you can mostly do the other. I tend to put some wireguard VPN servers in front of my cloud boxes though for security reasons
It’s almost like you don’t hear about people in other classes because unless they commit some particularly heinous instance or attack a large number of kids, that shit is basically reported on once and forgotten.
running unauthorised pentests does indeed get people fired. Along with getting their managers in hot water for letting their pentesters be loose cannons. And if they’re attacking someone else while on company time, the company can be in serious legal trouble too.
it is rather customary for heads to roll when critical data is leaked as part of an insider attack, especially when said attack was enabled by negligent practices.
Just incase you’ve forgotten that randomly attacking people and leaking data is this kid’s MO.
True, but no one is going to pay for content with production values barely above tiktok videos - which is what most of YouTube’s most famous content is.
There’s also the fact that YouTube is more of a social media outlet than a content creator. Its content comes from people and organisations experimenting and assuming all risks for themselves. YouTube isn’t commissioning works (bar one or two notable exceptions) and the biggest risks they assume is storage space holding dud content.
Streaming services actually create, or at least license, the content they host. That costs significant sums. Therefore it makes sense for them to be paid services. YouTube itself doesn’t create or license shit.
Ah it doesn’t work for YouTube? That’s a bum :(
Call me insane but people have NO problem paying for netflix/hulu/amazon/HBO and whatever else but theres a large amount of people who wont even consider paying for Youtube
Because Netflix/Hulu/HBO/etc hosts TV shows that are expensive to make. YouTube hosts various types of content that is produced on shoestring budgets compared to TV shows.
Just because someone would pay to watch The Boys or Game of Thrones doesn’t mean they’d pay to watch Let’s Plays.
Pihole. It’s a hardware device that plugs into your router and blocks traffic to known advert domains.
It works network-wide, so this works even on non-standard platforms like Playstation.
Like the above poster said, there are ways. Just not the ones they suggested.

If you can self host, you can run a custom cloud instance.
Check out System76. Linux compatible laptops are their specialty.
You can take the sides of the civilians. Hamas and IDF can both go bomb each other to oblivion for all I care, just leave the civilians (Israeli and Palestinian) the fuck out of it.
There’s a decent number of pedos among all classes, but the rich ones can get away with it easier
Yea, but the nerds that the suits put in charge of security will absolutely recognize this kids skills.
They will also recognise how much of a potential threat he is.
The suits don’t run the security teams at most corpos.
The suits absolutely do run the security teams. Very indirectly, but they do. The suits are the ones security teams have to persuade to get any sort of funding and they can and will veto a hiring decision like this.
You are correct that in most places, the suits do not usually directly intervene. Usually there is a lead guy in the security team that handles the conversations with the suits.
In a well functioning security unit, there is some trust there but not nearly enough to hire a kid like this. A veto is seen as a politically risky manoeuvre for a suit but it would absolutely be pulled for the prospect of hiring this kid, with some frankly compelling justification that any team lead would find nearly impossible to get around.
I’ve worked in several corporations in several security teams in the past, some amazing, some god-awful with insane suit meddling.
This wasn’t carelessness. This was a deliberate.
Mostly true in normal cases. If you’re really talented there is a market for you, always.
In this case, that market is the black market. In the regular market, no head of security wants to be responsible for a potential critical breach by hiring such a wild cannon.
His only possible path would have been to show remorse after the attacks. He shot that in the ass, or at least made his job much harder in that respect, by pulling another attack while in police custody.
It could be something as simple as needing to feel powerful in their space. That’s something a lot of people, autistic or not, can fall prey to, but it is more prevalent in introverts without a wide range of healthy social circles.
Think about it, how ballsy do you have to be to do an attack while in police custody? You pull that off, you’re going down as a fucking legend in black hat circles.
There is no such thing as a ‘stable’ Wayland interface. Each compositor is responsible for their own interfaces, the Wayland protocol is there to make sure that applications written for Wayland play nicely with them.
