Btw this actually works, I believe it installs a driver that Windows loads to let it intercept HTTP traffic, but it will mosaic anything it considers 'porn' as long as it travels on HTTP, so it even hit some of my friends' cropped porn Steam avatars, iTunes album artwork, and the textures on online games. Pretty neat.

does that linux class i took in college count?
>>47153296
I used it for months years ago. Until I couldn't file my taxes online and my kids couldn't do their homework. In the trash it went. Now I only touch it with a 100 mile putty.
what is your primary linux distro, and why?

gentoo, been using it for years and cbf changing.

don't worry, gcc5 will break it, so you have time to change

Looking for ideas on what hardware to use for a pfsense router. Would like enough power for speed and some of the addons like the firewall antivirus and run some personal vpn off it.
Pic is the Alix kit. Costs about 200 a little less. Good speed but idk how much hard drive space it leaves after software and addons for a cache.
It still shouldnt need that much hardware. Anyone already running this?
What are you looking for?
>>47161753
What hardware are you using? Im about to buy this Alix kit just to be done with it but @ 200 for it I was wondering if I couldnt do better for the money.
It's hard to look past that thing for a router/firewall.
3xGigabit Ethernet puts it ahead of anything that isn't a specific purpose single-board.
It only consumes 6W, so it beats a spare rig with a full x86 CPU.
You're limited by the 1GHz dual core, but for small networks that's more than enough.
Where can I get a functioning email address to send and receive papers, without having to give up personal information like phone numbers? Fuck this bullshit.

/diy/ isn't the only productive board. Come on, let's show them what we're made of.
What are you working on? I'm waiting on some ATmega328Ps and an FTDI breakout to convert my Cherry switch tester into a small multimedia/convenience keyboard. I paid $20 for it, might as well get something out of it. I'll post a guide on here if anyone's interested and I get the parts before the thread 404s.
Also, searching for an image to post, I came across this. I think it'd be a pretty cool little project to wire up some RGB LEDs into an assembly...

although i haven't been doing too much in this department either - but i think most fun things i was ever doing were atmega things. I've made some two-digit calculator on double 8-segment display, my own hd44780 'driver' (this is, set of functions in C to support it), tried to make AT-XT keyboard converter. All of those things were really fun,...

So I'm trying to power pic related.
The battery setup ATM positions the terminals to accommodate the typical AA AAA battery design (terminals on each end). However, the radio takes a 9v battery.
My plan is to replace the current wires with a modern 9v receptor (both terminals on one side).
I believe this is a sound plan.

Linux isn't a popular desktop OS because
>UI projects are fractured, inconsistent, and incomplete
>every distros updates either break periodically or are way behind
>the support for critical commercial apps & file formats marginal at best
True or false?
>>47156066
Your first and third reasons are completely true but honestly I couldn't care less about the UI or proprietary software. Linux is an important part of the operating system it doesn't make up the entire system.
>>47156066
>>UI projects are fractured, inconsistent, and incomplete
Right, just like every Windows anti-virus, web browser, digital marketplace, DAW, video editor and other piece of commercial piece of software that want to be "different". Only .net shit actually remains consistent with the Windows style. AND then there are fucking metro apps.
I would actually say that it's MORE unified on GNU/Linux.

The question is why doesn't the community try to tackle these problems, doesn't seem like something impossible to overcome.
Maybe the iron hand of Linus should extend to more areas
Make my kids use Linux before windows, show them the power of the terminal from an early age.

They get baby duck syndrome when they use Windows.
To them, the de facto standard would be Unix. They won't have anything to go back to.
Windows users will have a harder time swaying them then making...
