Although I realized that the sum 3 + 7 + 11 + 15 ... = (1 + 2) + (3 + 4) + (5 + 6) ... and using the sum of the integers, instead of using the arithmetic series formula.

>>fb-X11WVVIW (OP) Why the fuck do people like arch wiki. It's almost never comprehensive enough to be useful. I barely gives you an introduction to any concept and the majority of the pages only describe a fraction of the features in any program. It is a good resource for starting out in a topic but it is pretty bad if it was your only reading material.

>>fb-EPJF7II2 The woman in the clip claims liberal society mocks men for their mental health struggles, and then shames them when they try to do something about it. She goes on to say men are so vilified by folks who tend to be very anti-religious that young men are being pushed into church, where they find support and obtain positions of authority and leadership. She's not saying there's an absence of a lot of very toxic elements to that, but she argues liberal society has become just as toxic when men are mocked for their mental health struggles and shamed for trying to do something about them. She thinks people need to be very aware of the long-term ramifications that isolating, shaming, and not supporting men are going to have, especially if people don't want to return to a theocratic, patriarchal, religiously-run society. Here are articles she references: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/men/thinking-man/11670138/Why-are-our-universities-blocking-mens-societies.html Why are our universities blocking men's societies?

I created a flying machine in creative mode. Features - Can go up and down (user toggle able with switches). - Automatically stops before it hits the ground. I will probably try to recreate it on the server.

>>fv-GTBBQLS6 It has a third feature as well. - Automatically stops if the person falls off the machine (It runs away from you when you get close to it though).

Doesn't work anymore (every name is "taken")

>>fv-696BBIB1 Have you tried writing "fchan" as the password for a taken account?

>>flounge-HFAYOXO6 (OP) I have had fantasies of wanting to become a woman. In my case it's autogynephilia. Whenever I think of wearing women's clothes or having a woman's body, I get extremely aroused. I probably wouldn't do it because I usually feel happy being a man (Usually after I ejaculate the fantasies of being a woman go away). For other people they feel like they are women already and it hurts them to be a man. The prospect of being a man feels extremely unnatural to them whereas the prospect of being a woman feels natural to them. When they act masculine they feel like they are hiding their true selves, so they live their entire lives being fake, that probably hurts a lot. I guess you should ask yourself why you want to be a man, The answer probably isn't "because men have more power, are less likely to be creeped on, are less likely to be raped, are stronger, etcetra", It's probably just because it feels more natural for you to be a man. Lets say as a thought experiment, that the government forced you to dress and act like a woman and if you didn't you'd be punished with fines, short term imprisonment, and corporal punishment. You probably still wouldn't enjoy acting like a woman even if it was advantageous to do so. You'd be doing it because you were forced to do it rather than wanting to do it. Same if you tried forcing a woman to act like a man. Certain areas in trans women's brains are more feminized than in cisgender male brains, which is probably what leads them to have a feminine gender identity. It's a mistake to say they have "women's brains" since other parts of their brains are like normal male brains, but some areas of their brain are more feminine nonetheless. > I get the other direction. I remember watching some video of a trans man breaking down crying because he didn't realize how lonely it was to be a man. https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=2uz3JJ50erc He also said "I understand why the suicide rate is higher in men", this is a meme. More women attempt suicide than men, the reason why the suicide rate is higher is because men are better at committing suicide than women. Also I can't relate personally because I never feel lonely.

cock.li has replaced their homepage with a "red alert". Nobody is exactly sure what's going on, but there's fears that they were compromised or that there was an attempt. As of this moment, registration and password changes are down, but existing mail can be accessed at mail.cock.li

Last week anonymous filehoster buzzheavier shutdown after *9TB* of cp was uploaded between October 31 to November 3 and their servers were seized. With the Internet Archive being breached last month and these other recent events, the paranoid part of me can't help but feel that there's been a ramp-up in attacks on the free and open parts of the net. I'm not naive enough to think that it's possible to be truely anonymous from governments or big tech while using the internet, but there seems to be a push to shutdown or destroy services that don't require an account tied to a phone number or ID to use.

>>fb-D2RX5PTX Naturally is correct to think that Catbox will be the next target. Of course the same persons that have a gigantic database of cp will use it to spam sites to have a pretext to raid those sites.

>>fb-72AEN794 and in a twist of irony we get a cp spam post on /a/

>>fg-9FQG8CMP The idea of selfhosting and small instances is nice, but the reality of retards and glowies not so much. At one point there were almost a dozen fchan instances, but a persistant csam spam wave cause most to go down. I know for a fact that multiple admins said that was the reason they gave up. Unfortunately, the fediverse has a similar problem. If you throw Pleroma on a cheap VPS and leave registrations open, people will find it and abuse it in ways that will cause legal trouble for you. (Shoutout to Usagi for being quick to delete spam)

>>fg-9L04MDMF Self hosting without I2P seems like a huge risk I'm not willing to take. If I wanted to make a public instnace i'd put it on a VPS with a public mail address so that authorities can be contacted there. Also collaborate with authorities when that shit happens

>>fg-KS7W0HA1 This seems the main reason - I posted fediverse threads on their /g/ and when fchanxyz was up it got interest; i tried to get others to try to create compatible imageboards to test the federation but it didn't go so well for a number of reasons including >>fg-9L04MDMF where csam and other spam became an issue if anything was even slightly popular; alternately, the moment someone tried to deal with it you got the >FREEZEPEACH I THOUGHT THIS WAS DIFFERENT AND YOU HAVE CAPTCHA AND RULES AN I CANT POST CERTAIN THINGS IN EVERY PLACE WAY TO GO HYPOCRITE HURRRR crowd annoying. There's also the issue that many aren't sure the latest maintained fork of the codebase - usagi's dev seems to be one of the few that is up to date with their fork now, but its very hard to know where to go if you didn't know about this place an many only knew about the original fchan/fchannel0. Its good to have someone maintaining a version to help with security issues and the like, rather than everything being based on a variant from 1-3 years ago that, if vulnerabilities are present, aren't likely to get fixed en masse. I'm glad that this board is here an seems to have goo features, limited spam, and even stuff like captcha are not too obnoxious; I think lots of people from other imageboards would be interested for that reason. I wouldn't go trying to bring a deluge of random anons here from 4chan, 8kun or the like (especially after the election tourist incursion inundating many boards) but some /g/ posters particularly FOSS/freetard, cyberpunk/privacy, fediverse thread aficionados may be worthwhile posters.

if i spin up an instance will my posts be visible on usagi? any plans for a docker image?

>>fg-HUW6G64P yeah, this board is pretty kewl and actually has a decent captcha (4chinz new captcha is absolutely cancer, 900 seconds to post some bullshit??)

>>fg-0GNB41V1 You can also browse peertube with no js if you use ytfzf. Specifically you can do

ytfzf -c P 

The only problem is that ytfzf isn't actively maintained.

>>fg-0GNB41V1 > GNU mediagoblin is a federated platform lets you share videos and doesn't require javascript. Interesting, but I was looking for something more general content-wise. > It kind of sucks, but you can sort of browse peertube without javascript if you use RSS feeds, yt-dlp, and mpv to browse youtube without JS. Yep, it kind of does. > IDK what you mean by this Using Tor, and using a browser with Javascript disabled. Both are problematic for many web sites (even moreso in combination), but happily Invidious is one exception (some Cloudflare instances aside). >>fg-RN1R7F42 > The only problem is that ytfzf isn't actively maintained. That's not great either.

https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/4734#issuecomment-2365205990 [Bug] "This helps protect our community." #4734 >unixfox commented Sep 21, 2024 • edited > Sad news for everyone. YouTube/Google has patched the latest workaround that we had in order to restore the video playback functionality. > Right now we have no other solutions/fixes. You may be able to get Invidious working on residential IP addresses (like at home) but on datacenter IP addresses Invidious won't work anymore. > This is not the death of this project. We will still try to find new solutions, but this might take time, months probably.

>>fg-JO1QF219 I will probably still use it to search for videos and then watch the videos with yt-dlp + mpv.

>>fg-ER55Q4LE (OP) >PeerTube This of all the actual alternatives seems to be one of the best thanks to being FOSS, federated including friendliness for activitypub/fediverse use which means easier adoption, NOT being stapled o a particular crypto or monetization etc. >Watching without Javascript That's going o be a little difficult, but not impossible. There are a number of CLI tools, some GUI ones, stand alone desktop applications ec.. that can do this. For instance, everything on Android that is a fork of Newpipe, is built supporting PeerTube as well as YouTube. yt-dlp and mpv of course can work with it too, and any node that is compatible with SepiaSearch can be used to find videos of interest to play with VLC or MPV or whatever else. I know that some of the major projects (like some listed on the PeerTube documentation third party tools entry) may have been seemingly abandoned or a couple years out of date, but others have forks or Peertube has been added for many devices that focus on youtube (like Newpipe for example). Hopefully some combination will find what you need
