kitnaht , (edited ) to Technology in Authy got hacked, and 33 million user phone numbers were stolen

Hint -- by manipulating or exploiting its code

Which I am explaining, they...did...not...do...

They did nothing to the code. They didn't break the code, they didn't cause the code to do anything it wasn't designed to do. They did not exploit any code. They used an API endpoint that was in the open. For its intended purpose, to verify phone numbers. The api verified phone numbers, they verified phone numbers with the api. The only thing they did here...was they did verification on a lot of phone numbers.

Exploit. The system worked as intended, just without a rate limit. A hack would be relying on a vulnerability in the software to make it not function as programmed.

It's the difference between finding a angle in a game world that causes your character to climb steeper than it should, vs rewriting memory locations to no-clip through everything. One causes the system to act in a way that it otherwise wouldn't (SQL injections, etc) -- the other, is using the system exactly as it was programmed.

Downloading videos from YouTube isn't "Hacking" YouTube. Even though it's using the API in a way it wasn't intended. Right-clicking a webpage and viewing the source code isn't hacking - even if the website you're looking at doesn't want you looking at the source.

kitnaht , to Technology in Authy got hacked, and 33 million user phone numbers were stolen

'hacked'. Eh. There was an API endpoint left open that allowed them to basically just spam it with no rate limiting. They used the lack of a rate limit to just pull the data out of the API that it was made to produce.

You're causing your own issues here because you're wanting to name it all the Japanese way. I use AniDB and everything too - and it works just fine as a single series, with a single year, with all 25 episodes in a Season 1 folder with proper metadata download and everything.

Jellyfin doesn't see it because it doesn't know what the hell an "Unlimited Blade Works" released in 2015 is...because it wasn't released in 2015. You need to use AniDB as a secondary provider for Metadata, not a primary provider, because it doesn't match up with how Jellyfin and other English-made programs work.

kitnaht , to Selfhosted in Shoko Server not recognizing any anime

In instances like this, you simply use a single Season 1 folder, with absolute naming for episodes. It's really that simple.

kitnaht , (edited ) to Selfhosted in Shoko Server not recognizing any anime

I don't understand why you're naming stuff that way. You use a single FSN:UWB(2014) folder, because the year represents the date the show started. There is no FSN:UBW(2015). It all goes under UBW(2014), even if the episode was released decades later.

Am I the only one here successfully using Sonarr to take care of Anime? Sonarr has the ability to sort by absolute/relative episode you just need a profile for it.

If I really need to bother with any renaming, I'll use "RenameMyTVSeries" to mass-rename things, and drop them in the folder where Sonarr wants; or usually just have Sonarr grab the anime itself and apply its renaming rules.

Jellyfin is going to want:

  • Show Title (YEAR)
  • -- Season 1
  • ---- Episode Name - S01E1234
  • -- Season 2
  • ---- Episode Name - S02E1234
kitnaht , (edited ) to Selfhosted in Any MythTV Users Here?

I used to use MythTV back in the analog TV days. It's much easier to use when you have proper cable channels. I couldn't be bothered to pay >$140/mo for Cable TV any longer.

So now I just pay $60 for internet, and pirate everything I wanna watch with Sonarr/Radarr/Jellyfin/Jackett/Qbittorrent and a $2/mo VPN from Windscribe.

Honestly, with YouTube experimenting with 'inline' commercials, I think MythTV is going to make a comeback; because the big thing MythTV had going for it, was detecting commercials and removing them from the recordings.

kitnaht , to Selfhosted in Pros and cons of Proxmox in a home lab?

Does Incus support things like Kernel Samepage Merging? How does it handle Windows VMs? Does the WebUI give a nice and easy novnc window that just works?

kitnaht , to Mildly Infuriating in My laptop hinge just ripped its screws right out.

Honestly, this looks like it would be repairable with the appropriate sized heat-press insert, and a longer screw. Granted, things are pretty tight in that area; but it looks like there is enough beef left on the underside to repair this 'properly'.

kitnaht , to Memes in Case closed

Pedophiles arguing why they like this niche anime just a little too much...

kitnaht , to Technology in Proton is transitioning towards a non-profit structure

Really wish they transitioned to a "Not-for-profit" structure, rather than non-profit. Non-profits can still be profit driven, sadly.

kitnaht , to 196 in Rule

Isn't this basically the exact thing that happened with the "mouse utopia" project?

kitnaht , to Technology in X is about to start hiding all likes

"But muh family and fwiends use it!" or "I have an autistic cousin twice removed so I can't stop because it's the only thing he'll use!"

Any excuse to keep huffing that copium.

kitnaht , to linuxmemes in Linux best

https://www.protondb.com/

80% on Tier 3 or lower for Proton Click Play. That's not a small number. That means a majority of games, have bugs, crashing issues, things that cause them to be unplayable or glitchy...

So I repeat...

A lot of good those benchmarks do when only 20% of the games are playable to the same degree...

Great, you have success with it. But your anecdotal evidence does not make a solid claim to base things upon.
