Hello, world!

I have a special treat for you:

#FLAC versions of all three albums by #Pronobozo, probably my favorite #CreativeCommons musician, who has been putting out free tunes with a cybrepunk flavor for over 10 years.

Also added them to the #InternetArchive so y'all can legally seed these dank tunes via #bittorrent. :)

ACAB - All Corporations Are Bastards

"Traditionally, pages in a system had uniform size, for example 4096 bytes. However, processor designs often allow two or more, sometimes simultaneous, page sizes due to its benefits."

🔥🖥️🔥

Oh great, all proccesses' memory_percent added together gives me twice the memory use that psutil claims is the overall usage.

I'm just assuming rss (returned per default by process.memory_percent()) contains shared memory.

Which makes it worthless for cumulative visualization…

So now I found process.memory_maps with which I can read out the "private rss"…

Oh wait, I can't because permissions.

Okay so I run the thing as root, and finally get my private rss readings in… pages?

Graah, psutil sometimes literally reports some processes combined rss (resident memory size) to be bigger than memory consumption of the whole system (including those processes).

Not really sure what's going on here. According to psutil docs, uss would be more accurate than rss, but is only available on Linux (and I'm on BSD).

But if uss isn't even available on BSD what the fuck kind of metric is it using for overall memory consumption be less than combined rss of all processes? /o\

The memory data monitor now exposes the info needed to visualize the 3 biggest processes. \o/

PS: All of them are firefox

I saw some mentions of "Space Force" recently and had the rock-solid certainty that this had nothing to do with reality and surely was about some new show on flixtube .or whatever…

But… it's real? Dirty Orange really wants a fucking SPACE ARMY?!

I keep raising my expectations of the surrealism of that involuntary clown by orders of magnitude, but even so this one catches me completely off-guard.

Where did reality go?

PS: No offense to any real clowns, y'all are doing the goddesses work.

Just fixed some nasty bugs in my system monitors plots.

My favorite one: Plot moves faster if you tell it to plot an element (like eth0.recv_bytes) twice.

In other news: I really like that set() is directly built into #python.

@K4_713 Hey, you still around?

I don't think I can post on that trello board without registering, but I thought of something for your data model that might be interesting.

@bhtooefr And with edible algae you would not only have sort of a double yield (hydroponics + towers), but they might also act as a buffer against food shortages when there's problems with the hydroponics harvest… 🤔

Ooooh.

I just realized algae towers might not only be good to capture CO² in the algae and then bury the algae to bind it in the ground – One might even be able to extract nutrients for use in hydroponics from them. 🤯

@bhtooefr Thanks for poking my brain in that direction again. This might actually be an important point in designing a (mostly) closed cycle for this stuff. :3

Not sure what the almighty algorithm is trying to tell me here…

"Das gewählte Passwort muss zwischen 8 und 30 Zeichen lang sein und mindestens einen Buchstaben und eine Ziffer enthalten. Folgende Sonderzeichen sind erlaubt: ! @ # & - _ . + * $ ( ) [ ] { } : ; , ? = " ' \/ \ | % ^"

Och, haltet doch die Fresse.

Autoloading CPUMonitor!
Autoloading MemoryMonitor!
Autoloading NetworkMonitor!

Mhhhh, so renaming my system monitor to 💩.is actually an option.

NetworkMonitor class now keeps some aggregate statistics like overall bandwidth, number of interfaces that are up and combined link speed).

Still not sure on how to best expose interface addresses…

Eh, y'all have to hover on the link to get it to fully show.

Point being, the service itself uses http, but redirects to https.

So even if people are privy to https vs. http, they likely won't realize the GET params got leaked.

All links in unitymedias mails use a redirection service with plaintext http. 🤦

Example:
http://scb.unitymedia.de/click?redirect_to=https://www.unitymedia.de/bin/email-validation/?ruid=…

Pretty sure, it'll be the same for password recovery…

So basically, unity does this:

1) Use GET parameters for sensitive things like auth
2) leak all GET parameters through your own shitty tracking / surveillance service
3) PROFIT

And of course, contacting anyone through their shit website is damn near impossible.

Desire to inflict severe pain upon people: Increasing.

Implemented a text/marquee gauge because I'll want to display #MPD info.

Am now pondering how to expose ip addresses in a way that you don't need to know how many addresses an interface has in order to display them all…

Haven't been able to come up with something that is better than "expose them all as a single string with \n between all addresses", tho.
