    It is now possible to view the contents of the extractable files. These include any type of file and the content can be other files or sections of binaries. The sections often contain binary data without importance, but in others, there is embedded relevant content such as images, sounds, animations, cursors, plain text and so on (mainly in DLLs). Here is an example of a.zip that in turn contains another zip. In the description you can see the format and the algorithm that is used in each of them. 70% has been indexed. I suppose that during the weekend the process will be completed. At the moment, they add up to 1.3 million files/sections to the ones we already had. With this, phase 2 is in principle finalized (waiting to complete the indexing, which is an automatic process) and the most arid part of the topic is closed until new formats are added (there is already a list for the next iteration). Possibly phase 3 will begin soon, which consists of being able to visualize the files from the browser. This is: images, videos, sounds, midis, mods, documents, etc, etc, etc. It is one of the coolest parts of the explorer for which it has been necessary to previously do what has been done so far and with which it can be converted into a powerful tool for digital archaeology. On the other hand, the front-end has been consolidated throughout the museum (except for hardware cards): now the new one is already being used in all sections, which gives it a better appearance on the desktop and fixes many things that were broken in the mobile version. In addition, videos have been added about each hardware and software that I uploaded at the time to Peertube: example.

    Now single and multi-threaded rankings by users are displayed on the front page. The ranking shows the best result per user-CPU to prevent a single user from monopolizing many positions with the same configuration.

    Sure there's someone somewhere really pissed off about this. But we'll never know because you can't get online anymore.

    Excellent Plasma 6 update ? The improvements in customization and the OCR integrated in Spectacle really increase productivity. Features like individual volume control per application demonstrate how modern systems continue to evolve to offer a better user experience.

    Nvidia breaking funding promises, Microsoft losing 10% in stock market due to poor outlook for Azure and its AI investments, Oracle laying off 30,000 workers because banks have pulled back on funding for AI data centers, Deutsche Bank and Morgan Stanley trying to cover their backs on debt they've taken on to fund AI data centers... this is starting to smell a little fishy.

    I thought this was under control but it wasn't (that's what happens when you do things for the first time). This weekend there have been a lot of outages; my apologies for not having planned this well or for not giving timely notices. The issue is, in principle, resolved and from now on, it should go well and without outages.

    In summary, OVH has an anti-DDoS system (not configurable or deactivatable) with which UDP packets are always suspicious and when a certain threshold is exceeded (I don't know if it's a data rate or a packet rate), this system blocks the IP from which the packets are coming. As my server was using UDP to connect with the VPS, when there was a bit more activity than normal, it would jump and throw all the services. I have simply had to switch to using the TCP protocol.

    To learn, to lose (half a weekend).

    @_Neptunno_ The SOMA is a regular giveaway on Epic Games, so if you're interested you just have to wait ?

    It's more Sci-Fi and has less gore than the others, maybe it can be defined as more elegant, but in the end the studio has a very defined style, and they know what the people who buy their games like.

    Their regulars might be annoyed by that Sci-Fi touch instead of the more gore stuff, and those who like Sci-Fi might find the story very worn out in series and movies, but if they give it to you ?

    Salu2! Jugón!

    We are always the same with the issue of speculation: whether it's graphics cards and hard drives with mining, whether it's the PS5 when it came out, now it's memory... it's incredible, history repeats itself constantly.

    It is true that these are not essential things (although it is a pain for us), but the sad thing is that the same mentality ends up being applied to basic or essential goods. I like that people have the freedom to negotiate and make money, but there are points where a dominant position is blatantly abused and it stops being fair for the consumer...
