mozilla takes donations, but they don't fund Firefox development with that money. that's usually what people have against it.

i've seen something like this before, where the kernel holds the file handle open for the process so that it thinks the file is still there. i think it's related to how the program closes the file but i don't remember the details. restarting qbittorent will most likely fix it.

my dude, just seeing the text is too much effort.

your reaction makes me more confident that this may turn into something interesting :)

i take it then that files must have some ownership information associated with them, to distinguish the author from a relay node? or is that just a private key.

i'm interested in the dynamic linking, what mechanism is used to stop situations like left-pad or the pypi incident where a file is removed replaced with a malicious alternative?

i'm completely unmotivated at work and my tasks are time-sensitive. also my employer is collapsing around me so i'm trying to see if anyone else needs people.

also i'm halfway through a move, and there's no internet in the new place until december so i'm sitting here in a room without curtains and full of boxes, the only thing still unpacked being my remote work setup.

if I'm reading this right, it's a bit like ipfs+dht. is this a content-addressable system?

anyway, you should probably have demos of

  • large files (like a Linux disk image), to demonstrate consistency in transfer.
  • Video stream, to demonstrate performance and low latency.
  • multiple files shared with many peers at once, to demonstrate scalability
  • sharing with low bandwidth and high latency, to demonstrate possible mobile use cases.

thoughts:

  • the logo is very close to wireguard's.
  • if the data is stored on peers, that means there must always be people with free storage online for it to work? how much storage is needed? is that data in plaintext? could a bad actor push illegal content to peers without them knowing?

also, please convert the whitepaper to a format that is actually readable. rtf? really?

I played factorio for the entire day and basically forgot to eat

 

I have two monitors, one 1440x3440 and one 1080x1920 to its right. Every boot, the desktop on my left monitor moves over and displays on top of the right one. Killing and restarting plasmashell moves it to where it should be, but i'd love to fix this without adding that to my .xsession. Thing is, i'm not versed enough in the KDE internals to know where this issue even stems from.

I'm running EndeavourOS with Plasma 6.1.5 on X11. I haven't tried wayland since Plasma 6 switched to it and then promptly flickered itself into a crash.

Edit: This machine runs the amdgpu-pro driver, and has done since before plasma 6 released. i didn't have this problem on plasma 5.
