  • Wonderful day! 🪐

    Ha-ha! Of course, it’s okay to add emojis (or even emotes (/ o.o)/) to an accountable CV for responsible job to get trusted for! 😂
    Especially those for security 🔒, privacy 🕵️‍♀️, transparency 👁‍🗨…

    If I would look at such CV in search 🧭 for a trusted developer 👩‍💻, sys-admin 💻, manager 📜, accountant 💸, and for military forces ( -.-)7, sure thing the pretty pictures would increase the feel of trust to the level of the outer space and beyond!!!1 💪

    Oh! And why just LinkedIn? Perhaps to enhance the sense of accountability, some would want to add emojis to some documents, including employment contracts, Banking issues, weaponry certificates, and passports! Let’s make it shine in sparkles! ✨

    Look! LOL! OMG! This is the colleague on fields we need! They have these lovely emojis! Let’s hire them right now!
    Since, “There’s no crying in Special Forces!”


  • What a nonsense, sorry…

    Human is human already, regardless how they speak and what they do…
    There’s always true sympathy and empathy to find in a human, regardless how busy, dark, erroneous etc. they are…
    Yet, it’s the true alive soul inside in every person…

    Medics are likely tired, doing their job every single day, yet they have empathy, and will always try to listen if you actually try…
    They know what PAIN, AGONY, DEATH, SORROW… fear means…

    LLM/“AI” will always pretend to be a human, since it’s “trained”/designed, to be so, and will always be limited and incomplete…
    Not to mention the initial dataset of numerous emphatic actual human has its limited memory inside, no one is responsible for.

    What a hopeless sorrow is that awful trendy, advertised, mind-atrophying mess…



  • To be frank, I don’t know any case when Valve forced these rules, and even when someone reported such cases to Steam support directly. The response was just - “Thank you. We will check it out.”, and that’s it.

    Self-published developers I am aware of have been considering these “rules” as fair suggestion from Valve who point out that it’s important to Valve stay afloat in competition, where many developers will just follow these getting the point, which is straightforward.

    A few developers I know do find following this “rule” a respect towards the platform in general even.







  • Thank you very much for sharing about the /r/ShadowBan Community! I’ve read their pages, and the tutorial regarding appealing, and it the form at /appeal does indeed offer a field for submission!

    Previously, I used the second appealing method, likely powered by ZenDesk. but no response. Yet, it is the first time I used the aforementioned form, and I hope to receive response eventually!

    Regarding the ban-evasions (multiple accounts, Emails), I had a quite sorrowful case with it on Freenode/Libera IRC, where an operator (I would name them… but won’t - it feels impolite, since they are not here), had been banning me for literally unknown reason at least 8 times in a few months, and for weeks, in the channel #linux. I’ve been in this channel since at least 2007, and these bans not only caused me much worries, but I just tried to realize the reason. I wrote them in private - nothing.
    Here, I a created new account at Freenode, they banned me, too (Linux Community prohibits “alts”). I created another, and got a network K-line. Created another - got another K-line, and here I damaged my reputation in the channels who saw the K-line on the network, to such a low level I still try to recover. And when you try explaining the matter, it gets only worse…

    Just a few believe you on IRC if you get K-lined. After a year of making a mental pause< I re-joined, and got almost instantly ridiculed by another member who recalled me being “banned so many times”, yet what I could do? No one listened to me and no one believed I had no idea why that operator was banning me in the first place, including other operators.

    What is interesting is that this operator is not an operator anymore the last time I checked, though 4 years have passed since.

    Regardless… Thank you, and please do stay safe, too! 🛡



  • I never got a response from Reddit regarding my account unknown state, too - https://www.reddit.com/user/serious_angel

    I’d been using that account for years, and I can use it, and I do now. I do comment, vote, save bookmarks etc.

    I’ve tried contacting the official Reddit via Email, and their automation tells to write them using the website form. I tried that too, at least 8 times over 4 recent years - no response. Never.

    After several attempts, I tried sending messages to moderators in general Communities like /r/Laravel or /r/AskReddit, and I received response from them only, in a built-in chat, but when I try responding back - Error. Their response was to contact the official support, obviously.

    Meanwhile, the account is marked as “banned”, if I am not mistaken, yet I never ever did anything to get banned in the first place I believe. I awarded other comments with money, purchased “NFT” avatars, so I contributed monetarily to the platform, too.
    It just, all of a sudden, got “banned”, and for literally unknown reason. Again, I got that after years, too! No message from Reddit regarding it I found ever, and to a popular M

    People don’t even see my comments, and I had been commenting for at least a year before even realizing no one sees them! I accidentally noticed that when tried surfing to my account via “incognito mode”, and since then I’ve been trying to figure out what is wrong - yet no response:

    It’s all unseen (for others) My current profile Frequent errors


  • Thank you! I believe both titles are abs((float)$incredible)/INF… The story, characters, references, technical features, or every single bit and algorithm is perfect…

    Not to mention upgraded kernels and shells, including drones and 'dgets!
    Yet it all may not match the “good” you are searching for at this particular moment, or would it? How could we know!
    Both titles were developed by different genius teams even, the former is Ubisoft Monreal, the latter - Ubisoft Toronto!
    I.e. Even if MetaSploit and not Snyk’s or PortSwigger’s but FOSS is there… you may still find that the payload in all the exploits the solution provides you with, written by OSINT or more hopefully red… authors on the wires, is indeed a required parameter to be set upon execution/injection by you, the main host in the network! 🦋

    How to not find Watch_Dogs 2 and Watch_Dogs Legion both very different and ineffably marvelous…
    I uploaded a few screenshots found in some remote backups:
    - Watch_Dogs 2: https://imgur.com/a/GZ7F88U;
    - Watch_Dogs Legion: https://imgur.com/a/U07Yfch (Wrench is there, too, with Aiden!); 👻

    Being bored and hateful is a choice. It all depends on what you are searching for, doesn’t it ^^

    That is so… meta! ~ Wrench ✨







  • Not only the author of the post frame the ineffably marvelous Ubisoft for their Assassin’s Creed only, or the people in the organization who are not even related to the case, and for literally unknown reason, but also the author of the review feels like a disrespectful bigot who has likely a bad time yet enough to make a choice to inscribe their pure hatred into someone’s effort, history, and indeed novelty. One might want to suggest them to try creating anything at least remotely marvelous to the subjects, they try speaking at, with their own hands…

    Such a deep sorrow some people do not care about their actions, about anyone, including artists, developers, people in general… and ruin this world in hatred and utter, disgusting unfairness…

    You do you, @[email protected] and that reviewer, and let’s hope no one will state something so awful about your work after decades, hatefully believing their word has any weight the world outside their mind of hatred.

    A dear kindergarten is it…


  • If you want to actually realize the amount of possible misunderstanding in the current conversation and of what shell scriting is, please do consider joining #bash at Libera IRC. Please do also mention the word “throwaway” in the rooms! Since there’s literally no understanding on what you mean still, sorry. It does not feel like you have a significant enough understanding of the subjects raised.

    For a very simple example, there are literally no documentation regarding certain cases you’ll encounter in Bash’s built-ins even, unless you actually encounter it or learn from Bash’s very source code, like read built-in. Not to mention shenanigans in shell logics for inter-process communication (IPC), file-descriptors, environment variables like PWD, exported functions’ BASH_FUNC_, pipes, etc.
