uhh how fked i am if when i go to random telegram group that sell info and i saw my own info in there with like basically everything that about me (except my bank info)?

i assume that a few weeks ago i go to some site to purchase a .vn domain, they tell me to submit my info to proccess the domain and create the who.is profile (idk what it called but it kinda the same, like the info to put in the who.is but for .vn ahhh idk how to explain)

the site isnt old but also not new, i think they have some data breach and stuff

well ts is unavoidable, hope that they dont use my info and my face to make a deepfake and put it in some hub website lol

(also pls dont ask me why i joined to those telegram group
definally for research)

So yep I’ve finished setting up RDP on my Pi

Have to give up Wayland for this, honestly don’t know if this is a good idea or not

wayland isnt very good for rasberry pi, just use the old build in ui (i forgor the name again
)

The tooltip on hover is good enough, that just takes up a lot of space.

see if it’s anywhere else. If it just happened once in a small group, your probably fine.

It isn’t actually! I remember one case where this happened before. Don’t ask me what the domain was though. I might not have stated it outright as clearly for that case.

1 GB RAM (or even 512 MB) can be plenty depending on what you use it for.

I have a 1 GB RAM Pi at home that does some network proxying for specific devices. And I used it to run a VPN and a DNS server for a long time. I think a guy I knew hosted a full Nextcloud server on it. Raspbian is lightweight enough, and if you don’t load it up with unnecessary extras like a desktop environment, it’s quite a capable little machine.

I also use some 512 MB VPS for monitoring purposes, i.e. having them in a few different locations around the world to check connectivity.

It used to be very common that the information of the owner of a domain name (name, address, phone, email) were made public by default through the registry’s WHOIS service. With a stern warning at the top telling people to not abuse it, but no actual measures taken to prevent it. So WHOIS information was being scraped and shared a lot.

The GDPR helped put an end to a lot of that, but that’s only legally required for EU citizens. Any company is free to not care about privacy if the law of the country they live in doesn’t require them to.

It’s no longer called Raspbian since version 11 I think and is now Raspberry Pi OS

And that’s the problem because it’s definitely not enough from an accessibility stand point

Does Termux count as linux “distro?” :person_running:

I deleted the Bin folder (internally named “Deleted Messages”) with Roundcube. That happened, and i must read that i need to set said folders as special folders in roundcube settings. :melting_face:

apt install tigervnc-standalone-server, vncserver to set a password, nano .vnc/xstartup to set what DE/Window Manager to use in VNC, vncserver -kill :0, then vncserver again!

Termux is pretty special because of a modified package manager, adapted from Debian to operate rootless, but all in all, just like you won’t call Konsole or GNOME Terminal a distro, Termux probably is not :face_with_tongue:

Because Android is the distro :zany_face:

Actually, are you setting up X directly in Termux or did you spin up a proot container to run full blown Linux in it

I have X server directly in Termux and all the GUI apps (XFCE DE, Chromium, and others,) came from their x11-repo :slight_smile:

To those of us who were there since the beginning, it will always be raspbian in our hearts lol

Lol, thanks!

Pretty sure nobody will ever say Raspberry Pi OS except for people that are now new to it (It was called Raspberry Pi OS when I got mine, but I was following a book/tutorial that called it Raspbian so I sticked with that)

Tell me if it works :slight_smile:

I downloaded some random 3D models from the Internet and it is getting crazy, most of them do not open in 3D viewer but Paint 3D :laughing:

I remember using those commands on Google Console a few years ago to run a virtual desktop lol. I don’t think it works anymore after they changed the ToS.

And I just spent more than 3 hours installing Blender and trying to convert some .pmx models into the more generic .glb model without success


Now I know why Paint 3D can open more models than 3D Viewer

First of all these models all have millions of triangles and joints

3D Viewer is more sophisticated and actually tries to load the armatures, animations, and all kinds of stuff into it, so it fails with such a big model

On the other hand Paint 3D will not only compress the model to only have tens of thousands of triangles but also strips all other data, which is why after opening and export as a .glb they work fine in 3D Viewer

I’m not interested in using these models and I have kept the original archives so yep, everything works well and I’m happy


Except that I still cannot work out how to change a .pmx into a .glb

I have PMXEditor but no I want to use 3D Viewer :confused:
