  • If you are receiving data from tor, then you are most likely seeing these connections. They also change over time, so tor relay nodes change and can be located anywhere.

    In addition, in the example you have port 9001, which means that relaying is most likely enabled in your client and you are a relay for other participants. Check the settings of the tor (relay/bridge).


  • I hope the movies are not the same as the cartoons of the 90s. I once watched a couple of episodes where Ash sends Pikachu to fight in the arena and then cries when Pikachu gets hit hard. I just wanted to ask, “buddy, you literally sent Pokemon into the damn arena where he was supposed to FIGHT, what were you hoping for?” But in general, I understand you now. In fact, the plot is not important at all. People just collect Pokemon like things, like Magic the gathering cards. Now I’m not sure if this is as insensitive or logical as possible.







  • Do you really want to recommend btrfs to beginners? The FS for which the usage scheme needs to be checked on the site.

    As for me, I messed up my home directory 4 years ago and since then I haven’t touched this fs and I don’t advise anyone. I need my Linux work machine not for experimentation and recovery from backups. It’s much easier to store the free 20 gigs on a disk.


  • If you newbie linux user I really recommended create partition for /home and use LVM. That not so easy, but if you understand LVM Snapshots and partitioning that saved many hours for you. You can use partition manager for make /home snapshots and all system snapshots too if you have enough free space in LVM group. The downside of this feature is that you can’t take up the entire disk with partitions, otherwise there will be nowhere to take snapshots.

    If you want change distro for example:

    1. create /home snapshot
    2. remove all ~/.* directories
    3. Start from iso and format only root partition for new system.

    If you want do momething risky:

    1. Create / and /home shapshot.
    2. Try that.
    3. If all ok merge snapshots, If all go bad rollback to previous state.


  • I just went to libraries and asked my friends for information.

    By the way, the internet didn’t suddenly become filled with all the knowledge in the world. The first internet pages were like personal blogs filled with not-so-useful information. In those days, the internet was similar to today’s darknet. Google was just starting out, and there was no search engine as such. As a result, people just shared websites with each other. The current internet is the result of millions of people’s efforts to fill it with information. So, having access to the internet didn’t change my life overnight.

    But we used to buy collections of websites and data on CDs when CD-ROMs first became available, and that was pretty fun.

    UPD: and at some point, people started exchanging data through modem calls, and that’s how fidonet was born. It was a whole cultural layer where you could get an address and slowly receive newsletters and exchange data through late-night calls to sisops. It was like a prehistoric torrent, but instead of pirating, you were exchanging data.




  • The job of people around the CEO is primarily to make decisions. All this huge chain of managers is needed only to aggregate information so that the CEO can make an informed decision. This is how many large companies operate. I would even say that there is a direct correlation between the size of the campaign and the number of monitors at the bottom.

    The flip side of sitting behind a huge monitor is that you won’t stay outside with a huge number of your employees if you make the wrong decision. It’s just a different job.
