[SOLVED] Any of you guys solved this crap with the arrr stack downloading ".lnk" ".scr" files?
  • Aye, I have them all from that previous discussion about it but noticed it wasn't working because noobie here didn't think of line separators.

    I wonder if there's a way of making qbit notifying users they need to be that way πŸ€”

  • [SOLVED] Any of you guys solved this crap with the arrr stack downloading ".lnk" ".scr" files?
  • Separated by a newline

    You brilliant person got it in one! Love you 😘

    Now I haven't tested which of the line separated ones blocked it, but the wildcard *.lnk didn't work when they were comma separated but do when line separated.

    Again, πŸ‘Œ

  • [SOLVED] Any of you guys solved this crap with the arrr stack downloading ".lnk" ".scr" files?

    I've told qbit to exclude those files and many other extensions from someone's helpful comment on here previously, but the stack keeps on grabbing and seeding them, which the latter I'm a little unhappy about sharing malware.

    While all the boxes on my network have no sign of Windows to get exploited it does worry me about another family members arrr stack because there is a Windows laptop down there, but thankfully not used for media consumption.

    Help?

    edit: big thanks to kiszkot@feddit.nu for pointing me in line separators instead of comma separated exclusions!

    Help me find a charging brick
  • I've always gone with Anker chargers and cables and they've always seen me right.

    Saying that thou and even thou my current phone comes with a 90w charger in the box, I simply use my 20w Anker charger since fast charging isn't exactly good for the health of your battery and if I can, I leave it on a trickle charge at home.

  • Ya know this is a really good point and whether the network switch is managed, or unmanaged.

    I've never delved into the black magic of playing with a managed switch before but your comment makes me eager to have a play with one now.

  • Gsam battery monitor has been delisted?
  • Indeed, and is something that not only irks me with newer apps like you say but is also something we have at work with all the HMI / touchscreens.

    They're just now icons with no labels or anything so trying to figure out what some of them do is a game of guesswork 🀬

    It's exactly why I bought her two of them. One their main router and the other in AP mode ;)

  • Thousands of hacked TP-Link routers used in years-long account takeover attacks
  • As opposed to, TP-Link, Cisco(Linksys) and other off the shelf routers it seems some will only go for brands with their own proprietary firmware?

    I grabbed that Xiaomi router on the premise it has OpenWRT, but I'd like to see Ubi / Unifi routers put under the same scrutiny instead of just lumping a brand name as a no-go.

    What's your recommendation?

  • Thousands of hacked TP-Link routers used in years-long account takeover attacks
  • Never used them pal, but seen them used in Enterprise environments?

    Something I've found on a SOHO environment though and what I bought a family member?

    Gli-Net mini routers. They come with OpenWRT as a base and then lipstick it with a nice interface. But as always, YMMV

  • Thousands of hacked TP-Link routers used in years-long account takeover attacks
  • No doubt, and I would really love someone with more knowledge than me to poke into why that was going on (*edit: for clarity, this behaviour stopped after installing OpenWRT and is the stock Mi firmware that causes this)

  • Streaming music server for YouTube
  • This reminds me of some peeps saying using Newpipe is "(app) piracy". I wholly disagree with them to this day.

    If a website, which YouTube.com is and allows a client to connect and use its services it isn't, piracy per se.

    Much like because I have a UK IP address I can hit up get_iplayer and use that service which IMO should be the norm.

    e: apologies for not been helpful, I'm just ranting.

  • Thousands of hacked TP-Link routers used in years-long account takeover attacks
  • I've had no end of trouble with routers and ones you should choose to be sure of.

    The ones where you can flash OpenWRT seems the only choice if you want some semblance of security. But even my current Xiaomi router with stock firmware creates hash mismatches using apt to download things, and I don't 100% know with confidence that using OpenWRT on it instead is keeping me right.

  • Gsam battery monitor has been delisted?
  • Innit.

    It's silly, and they're nuking devs apps to make them update for the sake of "being active" even thou their app is still like Ronseal and does what it says on the tin, even after all these years and works just fine.

    Might look like Gingerbread but I don't give a fugg since I don't even look at it and love that app.

  • Gsam battery monitor has been delisted?
  • Sucks, I recently just noticed one of my most used apps SMBSync2 got yoinked but thankfully have it installed still, but I also noticed that APKmirror doesn't even have a copy of it like it does for GSAM :/

    And we've also had the simple truth that the Germans at one point were terribad at it but are now nailing it down, especially when you come to the above users calling it "satire".

    It's a shit joke in very bad taste no matter where you're from or whatever political spectrum you're aligned to. Made me giggle to be honest, and especially so how you downvoted for not getting lel joke.
