Couldn’t find anything with less pixels, please save to disk and remove resolution yourself ❤️
What about Intel ME, Microsoft Pluton, the one for AMD. The secret chips that have direct access to your hardware. Basically a blackbox. Same with cellphones. SoC.
the one for AMD
It’s called PSP (Platform Security Processor), iirc
And to answer your question:
- Old-ass thinkpad as daily driver: Acquired
- RPI Pico: Acquired
- SOIC Chip programming clip: Acquired
- Motivation to get off my ass and actually flash libreboot and me-cleaner: In progress…
No webcam.
But some spam mails think i have one.
I think I saw videos of you last week on one of those revenge porn sites. You were going to town on yourself. I’m guessing you didn’t send the bitcoin?
you can’t spy on me through my webcam, I don’t have one

I mean, if we want to get pedantic, nothing it’s stopping a virus from bringing it’s own drivers or a whole ass windows vm to pass the usb over ( i rememver the was something of the sort for windows using a windows xp machine for a botnet) It’s as always just a matter of how willing are you.
If any of you pure Linux guys ever get a virus that installs windows, that’s going to be the funniest shit ever.
They’d be looking like that one chick from the 2016 election that screamed Noooooo!
That would be a very interesting virus.
I mean, honestly I’d just be pissed I had to reinstall, there will be no loss (or minimal, just whatever I torrented in the last few days, important things get backed up immediately). Maybe 4hr tops including data transfer to the new install.
Pipes a script from the web in bash whitout checking:
Reboots to see the windows logo come up
two sentence horror story
One liner for fixing driver issue, sounds great
Still faster than snaps /s
I had a problem and then I tried to solve it by installing a snap package. Now I have two problems.
You can say what you want i still prefer appimages to snaps, old school windows stile ftw
I was doing a group project in college where we had a Linux server running some of our custom software. I asked a group mate who worked in IT to self-sign some certs so we could get https up and running for our next sprint demo.
He installed a fucking snap package to do it via certbot. On fucking RHEL. And that server was not hosting an internet-accessible service. And he didn’t know why I lost my mind.
I’ll be honest, I’ve had times where there’s the “simple” solution, and “the solution I remember off the top of my head”, and 10/10 the one that’s happening is the one that I remember because I just did it last week.
I have no desire to google the arguments for self signing a cert with openssl, and I cannot remember which webserver wants the cabundle and the public cert in the same file. If I had done it even kinda recently I’d still remember what to poke in the certbot config.
Just say no if you don’t want to do something. I don’t understand why people think fucking shit up in the guise of helping is more acceptable than admitting that you can’t (or maybe just don’t want to) do something.
Do you think that, in this example, using certbot is fucking shit up, or breaking something?
The thing about overkill is that it does work. If you’re accustomed to using a solution in a professional setting, it’s probably both overkill and also vastly more familiar than the bare minimum required for a class project that would be entirely unacceptable in a professional setting.
In OPs anecdote, they did get their certificates, so I don’t quite see your “intentionally fucking things up” claim as what’s happening.
If you have no desire to do rudimentary googling for a group project in college, that sounds like you aren’t a very helpful teammate. Last time I generated certs I used the first stack overflow result and was done in minutes, there’s no excuse.
This is confusing to me, because the point of the request seems to be “get a certificate”, not “get a self signed certificate generated by running the openssl command”. If you know how to get the result, it doesn’t really matter if you remembered offhand the shitty way or the overkill way.
Is it really more helpful to say “I remember how to do this, but let me lookup a different way that doesn’t use the tools I’m familiar with”?
Not sure why you were enabling HTTPS for a project that was not hosting an internet-accessible service, really. By which I assume you mean the service doesn’t have a publicly accessible web based UI or API component. What were you trying to access and how? The only scenario I could think of for this would be that your custom software relies on HTTPS for secure communication within its own internal network (such as on a VPN) to send sensitive data back and forth between services. In which case that feels like overkill for a college course, since you shouldn’t have any genuinely sensitive data that you need to secure if it’s just for testing and demonstration.
It was a project requirement, PHI was processed by it, so yes, it needed a secure connection. I now realize I should have used mutual auth, but hey, I only learned about that after that project
We never sent actual data to it (the actually sensitive data used for training never left a secure VM), but the point of the course was to act like we were. Plus, setting up an nginx reverse proxy is simple, setting it up and getting certs from some ssl commands is a 10 minute task that appeases the project manager/professor with minimal effort.
Basically a “lemme get the flame thrower real quick so i can hammer that nail in for ya”
That sort of reminds me of the FBI patching compromised systems after they take over a botnet.
2K webcam resolutions
we only do 360p here, sir!
Don’t you mean the oux?
I try to think this wherever I bemoan the lack of IPU4 support
My WebCam has such low resolution I could argue that that’s anybody in the picture. Go ahead.
Low res webcam, massive north facing window behind me (australia), i make people pay dearly for wasting my time with meetings
Is that Fox Mulder? lol
damned skippy.
I would also have accepted close encounters or there are four lights.
Ooh, another one:
I would say “enjoy flashing everyone”… but that could be awkward, so make sure to flash responsibly:-D
I don’t even have a webcam on my desktop. My Thinkpad has a sliding cover on its webcam that stays closed when I’m not using it.
The internal microphone is on the same board as the webcam in laptops.
Pop the bezel and disconnect the cable when not in use.
hehe camerw blocking laptop
My infosec skills are far too sophisticated for infiltration (small piece of black tape)
lots of the tapes ppl use for it are translucent tho lmao
Work laptop, it stays closed, and I use my two screens connected to it. After Covid, everyone wanted video calls. Nope, I’m not getting the laptop out from the back of the desk for you.
Anyone hacking the webcam can get a view of the base of the laptop.
You can get a whole sheet of tiny circle stickers for like, a dollar. I’ve used them for a decade or more now!
Yeah but the tape also covers the shitty microphone next to the camera.
Beat that, circlecuck!!
Same (dremel)
wait are there still webcams that don’t work? I’ve never used them apart from whatever was recommended for 3d printer monitoring and they worked fine.
yeah, I haven’t had issues getting a webcam to work in years, just plug and go
You can just write some custom selinux rules to block access. It is pretty simple.
That’s still software. Unless selinux has a hidden feature where it can physically sever a data connection.
Well unless the full system is compromised it should be pretty secure. It is from the NSA after all.
I was kind of joking though
I have a physical switch on my laptop. Physically disconnected USB device as far as Linux is concerned.
I use tape
btw
and it has flames on it
