Let’s play a game of “Fortunately, Unfortunately“. Respond the previous post (the first comment below this post) by replying this post (not the previous post!)

I’ll start with: “I found this website.“

(GT-180) https://assets.scratch.mit.edu/57914bda3359b6d5586dcccb1da4841d.mp3 | The music at Mount Lineland kinda sounds like a BGM for some Japanese arcade game or a supermarket, so I made one

(Yes, this is a GT-180 broadcast here at wasteof. As my IP is at DroneBL, Corkboard and ChanSpec are inoperational at this moment. This might be the only broadcast aired here, though.)

I’ve been considering Jefallo’s 2022 idea of a password manager, but I quickly realized it’s not more secure than using this password pattern:

TIL: Internet scams became so prevalent and destructive that people actually suggested to execute the scammers. Yeah, people wanted them dead. It’s that terrible.

Now I want to see an artwork of that. A massacre of call center scammers, heheh.

Purification protocol:

- Let an antivirus scan this folder

- If any threats are found, ask it to clean it (repair the executable)

- Once it's mitigated, SCAN IT AGAIN just in case the cleaning isn't done properly

- If the threat is mitigated, program MAY NOT BE OPENED UP for the next 7 days, in case an updated antivirus database found another one.

- If the threat can't be mitigated after 5 passes, DELETE IT permanently.

The main reason why I made this is because I forgot Jeff was completely infested by this Virus:Win32/Sality.AM and I had to make a quarantine folder so I know not to open programs here. Not sure what this does but I’ll never let this virus run on my new machine.

(In case you’re wondering: Currently I have no plans of installing Linux or any other OS on John the Vivobook (if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it), but in case I did consider one, I had left 250 GBs free on my SSD for this purpose)

Imagine seeing someone so passionate in Linux to say companies deserved to get CrowdStrike’d

...

Someone

The thing is companies use Windows when they shouldn't.

Someone else

you can try arguing with them all you want but user-facing computers will tend to be windows-based for most of these companies

Someone

ok you know what screw it

let these companies die for good

Someone else

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

would you kill off a hospital just because they use Windows 10 on their receptionists' computers?

Someone

maybe

if they aren't willing to migrate to a more stable enviroment then let them close

Someone else

I'm sure many, many people will be happy with such an extreme decision

In this SMP server I made a bulletin board that I call “the most useless invention in Minecraft” and people used them

On the other hand I made a small auto sugar cane farm and that got less use because the throughput is absolutely terrible

Now that John has taken over Jeff’s throne, it becomes a very crappy NAS now

This partition is dedicated for storing data shared by multiple OSes, should one be installed here. It is formatted in exFAT, as it is the simplest yet advanced filesystem that Windows supports, and also the only one that has open specs, therefore having the most potential support. Links or other similar filesystem feature should be used to redirect their own user folders here.

The aim of creating this partition is to increase integration between OSes, in a partition everyone can read and (hopefully) never fails.

What belongs here:

  • Files that are OS-agnostic, that is they do not care where they are opened or created at.

    • These files include documents, images, audios, videos, project files, etc.

    • External assets that could be characterized as such may also be stored here.

What DOESN'T belong here:

  • Programs that must run natively, or by usage of some compatibility layer (such as Wine or WSL).

    • This doesn't apply to programs that must be run by some other architecture absent in this laptop, whether it be a physical one that's emulated or interpreted by a virtual machine.

    • Programs built by some source code here are exempt to this rule, as long as they aren't stored elsewhere in this partition.

  • Files and folders relevant to one OS but not to others, except those that the OS requires.
