  • Apologies, but here some should consider it serious when a headline is read “I build a thing.”

    At this moment, everything tells it was not you who built it but an LLM you used, and it seems like it was Claude based on both your website and the game design, UX/styles of which look as almost everything Claude models do, as a copycat.

    There’s no source code even stated/found. And what about the license of LLM-generated game? Who owns it? You, Anthropic, or some unknown people, invaluably marvelous ideas and effort of who Anthropic processed and anonymized permanently in their model datasets?

    Therefore, may I ask why do you call it as “you” did, and why shouldn’t it be called “slop” based on uncountable ideas of actual artists and developers?




  • Sincere apologies for the person condition…

    As you provided no actual points to consider important to invest much time into the answer, let’s make it quick, too.

    It’s not illegal to be a hacker. It’s illegal to implement and/or execute illegal actions via hacking, and it depends on the region in question. There are two common ways to distinguish hacker’s scopes of actions: 1) team colors; 2) hat colors.

    The concept of red teaming and blue teaming emerged in the early 1960s.

    -–

    A white hat hacker breaks security for non-malicious reasons…
    A black hat hacker is a hacker who “violates computer security for little reason beyond maliciousness or for personal gain”…
    A grey hat hacker lies between a black hat and a white hat hacker, hacking for ideological reasons…
    Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Security_hacker#Classifications

    It’s impossible to “quickly” learn to be a hacker. The security subjects shift each fraction of a second, and you have to train your intuition layering it on the experience you gain from theories and practice.

    Some of known ways to get in-depth are:

    - 1. Public Capture-the-Flag (CTF) events as you may find at: https://defcon.org/html/links/dc-ctf.html;
    - 2. Bounties, like: https://www.hackerone.com/bug-bounty-programs;
    - 3. Serious contribution to open-source projects (e.g., KDE, Mozilla, programming language compilers as C++, Rust);
    - 4. Contributions to dirvers/middlewares, and databases as: https://www.aircrack-ng.org/;
    - 5. Contributions to exploits databases as: https://www.metasploit.com/contribute, https://www.exploit-db.com/;
    - 6. Contributions to CVEs as: https://www.cve.org/ReportRequest/ReportRequestForNonCNAs;
    - N. …

    In other words, you just find your love in the security subjects you consider closer to the heart, and go in deeper…
    Then, you just use the tools you want to achieve the requirements:

    # Let's just use the lovely Bash v5+ to get our IP addresses (no cURL etc.).
    exec 3<>'/dev/tcp/ipinfo.io/80';
    printf 'GET /ip HTTP/1.0\r\nHost:ipinfo.io\r\n\r\n' >&3;
    while read -r l || (( ${#l} )); do
        [[ $l =~ ^([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}$ ]] && printf '%s\n' "$l";
    done <&3;
    

    There are relatively not serious but still options as: https://tryhackme.com/
    Yet, please do consider that actual hackers do never expose their actual identities. Since, your identity is a single and permanent key to your life and your family…
    Once you’re in, and you become responsible for your actions, you become a loner, and not a single soul will ever support you in the very end…

    The quieter you are, the more you are able to hear.

  • It’s so sorrowful indeed… Thank you…

    You should check out the Slack of GitKraken Desktop client, where Users complain about the time and effort developers invest into “AI” just a few sorrowful people use, instead of actually developing a tool for a human…
    Not only that, they pay more for the “Pro” subscription that includes “AI” they don’t even use, and the subscription price increases each each year, where almost only “AI” changes exist… yet for those who don’t even use it.

    Disgusting… and such a sexism-full sorrowfulness…

    You casually scroll through some wonderful Lego projects of people… and get hit with a yet another reminder of how casually women are disrespected. It’s exhausting to see this nonsense even here…

    I mean… yes, it’s the Internet… yet it is so incredibly disheartening to accidentally encounter this, as if the women are objectified and here, too.
    The Lego community used to feel like a safe, wholesome escape… a place defined by pure creativity and mutual respect. But lately… it’s just deeply sad how much worse things have gotten…

    I’m not kidding when I said that Firefox is a niche browser. Folk have to actively look to use it. They have to search it out, figure out how to download it, ignore all the warnings and “suggestions” that they should keep using whatever the native browser is, avoid all the ads for Chrome as the better replacement browser, ignore all the sites saying “Your browser is out of date” because they couldn’t be arsed to test things in Firefox, etc. Firefox users are not normal. They are deeply abnormal, and frankly a lot of them are proud of that.

    The problem is that Leadership doesn’t know how to deal with that.

    Thank you for the response.

    Hence, “fake”, I mentioned. And it’s been always just disturbing to me, and suggesting lack of any trust due to possible manipulation strategy.
    It doesn’t feel like suggesting “shyness” or something closer but simply immature, manipulative, and luring indeed, to avoid of.

Obviously, the upkeep would be expensive, but I also feel like it would be an expense that is well worth it to know that your players and the guys that you’re hiring are not only confident, but comfortable and mentally feel safe on the surface that they’re playing on.”

    Thank you… heartfelt…

    Apologies, yet I am ~40 years old, and haven’t still realized the reason behind it, and will probably never understand the reason artists draw these infant legs, that is the atypical leg femoral anteversion, a physical condition also known as:

    Pigeon toe, also known as in-toeing, is a condition which causes the toes to point inward when walking. It is most common in infants and children under two years of age and, when not the result of simple muscle weakness…

    More to that, these always felt awful, painful, fake, and, sorry, but with some pedo-related sorrowfulness…

    Apologies… to clarify, you’ve been using Bitwarden for a local password manager as the awesome KeePassXC you mentioned?

    Yes, you may sync the KeePass databases manually, but… considering your investment to the vendor mentioned, I am sorry, it feels like you may not find it an alternative you expect to replace the service with.

    If you are capable to set a custom synchronization for the KeePass databases across your environments and devices, then you should find KeePassXC or similar clients a marvel.

    Yet, just in case, have you checked out the following project?:

  • Sincere apologies! Apparently, the mapping was in my dated local custom build of the tool…
    Have you tried recording the general xev (with no , without any explicit filtering?

    Your xev build/Man/Info message should list the supported. For example, in v1.2.3, these are supported:

    $ man xev;
    # ...
    -event event_mask  
    When not specified, all events are selected... Available event masks: keyboard mouse expose visibility structure substructure focus property colormap owner_grab_button randr button
    

    Yet, today we found the actual possible culprit, and monitoring the events is probably not required. We know that it will just change, and the issue source should be a separate whole system-wide service that changes your initial change to its own configured, eventually.

    There are many custom key remapping tools, including keyd, but I would try realizing/experiment with the standards first, and I appreciate you for still trying! It may help you in the future.
