| 17:02:07 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> I just realized (again) that bitfighter.org was never updated with newer screenshots |
| 17:02:12 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> Also we should probably have a big fat, noticeable download button on the homepage |

| 17:22:32 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> bitfighter snap package when |
| 17:29:42 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> isn't SNAP pretty horrific? Like it requirs an ubuntu derivative and an extra system-level process to run them? |
| 17:33:02 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> bruh |
| 17:33:08 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> snap is designed to work on all distros |
| 17:33:10 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> that's the point |
| 17:34:32 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> you just create one snap package and it can be installed and run on any system with snapd installed |
| 17:35:09 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> no worries about dependencies because they're all included in the package |
| 17:39:52 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> it's the 'with snapd installed' that is a problem |
| 17:40:08 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> AppImage will do all of that without snapd |
| 17:41:26 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> So if I wanted to distribute an easily run package to as many Linux distros as possible, what is the solution? |
| 17:42:24 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> Up until now, I made my own standalone package for a really old version of Linux and include the libs inside. But it's now broke and I'm considering alternatives |
| 17:48:16 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> flatpak is the other |
| 17:49:32 | | BFLogBot Comment on issue #637 | User: raptor | Comment: Update: I just found my old scripts to do the standalone build and sure enough, they no longer work because of ABI chang ... | https://github.com/bitfighter/bitfighter/issues/637#issuecomment-711452317 |
| 18:22:23 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> but flatpak needs the flatpak software to be installed? |
| 18:29:22 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> yes |
| 18:29:35 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> which is why i find AppImage the most appealing |
| 18:48:34 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> The biggest buttons on bitfighter.org should be the download button and the discord button haha |
| 19:07:10 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> we had someone redo the website once, named jimmythesquid |
| 19:07:25 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> i don't remember why we didn't roll with it |
| 19:07:41 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> it was fancy with big buttons and a clean UI |
| 19:22:07 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> I used to be able to make really clean websites with WordPress |
| 19:22:33 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> But now that I’m learning JavaScript and Python and Ruby I could eventually try to work on it hah |
| 19:24:29 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> @raptor what about installing |
| 19:24:29 | BFDiscordBridge | <ChumpChange> Nice shooting @Lamp! You just ranked up to level 11 ! |
| 19:25:48 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> someone ppl might want to install it and have the .desktop thing in their menu while others may be fine or want a standalone app they have to double-click |
| 19:26:09 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> ah yes, wordpress - we were totally going to move to that, then realized we just wanted to write HTML instead of have a full blown management system |
| 19:26:42 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> WordPress is super good for people who don’t know how to write code for websites but know how websites should work |
| 19:26:53 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> or actually, maybe that was when the whole website was taken over by a bot and we have to start from scratch |
| 19:26:54 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> It takes like 30 minutes to make a clean Wordpress website |
| 19:27:04 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> or ppl who do but can't be arsed |
| 19:27:09 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Yeah |
| 19:27:25 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Like if you know some HTML and CSS and use WordPress, oh man your websites can be beautiful |
| 19:27:29 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> @raptor what how did that happen and when?? |
| 19:27:35 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> ah the memories... we had to restore the website from archive.org because the backup script hadn't been running yet |
| 19:27:44 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> h |
| 19:27:52 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> it was like 5-6 years ago |
| 19:27:55 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> fof |
| 19:28:01 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> wat bot howd bot get in |
| 19:28:14 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> fokin chinese bots |
| 19:28:50 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> there were 1,536 failed login attempts since the last successful login |
| 19:28:51 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> I'm not entirely sure, but I suspect it was SSH with some sort of privelege escalation exploit |
| 19:28:58 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> haha, yeah |
| 19:29:29 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> can't have any ssh server on port 22 without it CONSTANTLY being attacked by bots from china |
| 19:30:05 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> Goddamn China |
| 19:30:11 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> is china doing most of the attacks nowadays? I remember it being a lot from ukraine/russia |
| 19:30:21 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> also romania |
| 19:30:51 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> i hope root has a good or no password https://ggh1.qonq.gq |
| 19:30:55 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> i mean, if you do geoip on the IPs |
| 19:31:07 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> ah yes, you can't ssh in as root 🙂 |
| 19:31:13 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> never letting that happen again... |
| 19:33:03 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> worth changing the port so logs don't inflate like a balloon |
| 19:34:07 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> yeah, i do that on most servers. I also run a blocking system that will block your connection if too many failed attempts |
| 19:34:14 | BFDiscordBridge | <Lamp> fail2ban? |
| 19:37:44 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> that or denyhosts |
| 20:13:38 | BFDiscordBridge | <raptor> who keeps chaning the MOTD? I like it, I just don't know who has the password to do it anymore... |
| 20:15:03 | BFDiscordBridge | <Skybax> not me |
