List of popular secondary scanners for emergency     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 2 months ago (+8/-3)
17 comments last comment...
Malwarebytes has gained significant popularity due to its specialized focus on detecting and removing malware, including emerging threats that traditional antivirus might miss. It has a strong user base among both individual consumers and businesses, often recommended for its effectiveness against ransomware and other complex threats.

HitmanPro is also well-regarded, particularly for its second-opinion scanning capability. It's often used by tech-savvy users or IT professionals who need an additional layer of security scanning to confirm the health of a system. HitmanPro's reputation for catching malware that other scanners miss has made it a popular choice for thorough system checks.

Emsisoft Emergency Kit: This is a free, portable tool that uses dual-engine scanning (Emsisoft and Bitdefender) to detect and remove malware. It's highly regarded for its effectiveness and is often used as a second-opinion scanner.

Zemana Anti-Malware: Known for its cloud-based scanning technology, Zemana can be used as a secondary scanner. It's particularly praised for its ability to remove rootkits, bootkits, and other persistent threats.

Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool: This is a free utility from Kaspersky that provides a powerful scan for malware. It's not a real-time protection tool but serves well for on-demand scanning, especially for stubborn threats.

Norton Power Eraser: Offered by Norton, this is a free tool designed to tackle tough malware that might have evaded regular antivirus programs. It's aggressive in its approach and can be used for a second opinion.

ESET Online Scanner: ESET provides a free, online-based scanner that works alongside your existing antivirus. It's known for its thorough malware detection capabilities.

Sophos Scan & Clean: Similar to HitmanPro, as it's now part of the Sophos suite, this tool provides effective malware scanning and removal, utilizing multiple antivirus engines.

AdwCleaner: While more focused on adware, PUPs (Potentially Unwanted Programs), and browser hijackers, it's an excellent tool for cleaning up specific types of unwanted software that might be missed by other scanners.

F-Secure Online Scanner: This is another free tool that can be used for a one-time scan to check for malware that might have evaded your primary antivirus.

Need help with installing indie OS     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 2 months ago (+2/-1)
3 comments last comment...
I have a powerful computer with Windows 10. Pieces of shit Microsoft are ending support this year.

I want to install an inidie OS that is supported to keep using my computer.

I know there are Linux and other indie OS.

Can anybody explain what can I do?

I know there is an OS with high security for using internet, that deletes all new files after browsing, so it's 100% malware free, but don't remember the name.

Is there a Linux version with the same security for internet browsing?

Is there a Linux version that is easy to use like Windows for non technical users?

I also need to know how to inistall a second OS on my computer. And if I can install more OS than just another one.

My computer has 2 discs. C is 250 GB, D is 1TB. If this matters. Or can I install the second OS on the same disc?

Enlighten me about everything I need to know. I don't even know what else to ask.

I know Tails OS and Qubes OS are the most easy to use for non computer nerd.

Are there more easy to use anti-malware secure OS?

FYI - Internet started faster because of Wall Street bubble     (technology)
submitted by Conspirologist to technology 2 months ago (+0/-2)
1 comments last comment...
In case you din't know. Internet was able to start faster than expected because of Wall Street bubble that pushed everybody to invest in internet technologies. Without the bubble, internet was scheduled to go mainistream only one or two decades later. When the bubble exploded, it was too late, because internet was already available and profitable.

What Was That - UFO captured flying at incredible speed and provoking all sorts of stories about teleportation and "gravity distortion" that can "punch a hole thru space time itself" .. I dunno but it looks like the image was shopped into the video to me     (www.youtube.com)

Distortion.

@nickbush2300 says, "this is one of the few real ones I've seen. The way the craft is pointed bottom first is exactly how bob lazar described these crafts would fly. Following a gravity distortion wave. The way you fall down to earth is exactly how they travel. They fall toward where they want to go and can decide how fast they want to fall there. What he doesn't tell you is that these crafts can create a maximum gravity distortion. This cause a a plasma like energy field to surround the craft and can punch a hole through space time itself.

How they're able to determine exactly where that wormhole ends up remains a mystery, but they can also effectively teleport through that maximum distortion field and reappear somewhere else, similar to a radio station being tuned into with static and then it's clear. The object simply appears out of a ball of plasma and can then disappear again. These craft are also fully capable of bending light around them so that they effectively become totally invisible. If we see them, it's because they want us to see them. And also because our government is slowly allowing disclosure. YouTube.

@PenisEnvy Getting Started with Open-Source Leg Hardware     (www.opensourceleg.org)

https://www.opensourceleg.org/build/getting-started

Build your own Open-Source Leg today!

The Open-Source Leg hardware is a robust and relatively inexpensive system that can be easily manufactured, assembled, and controlled. Through this website, researchers have access to downloadable hardware files so that they can enter the research field without having to design a prosthetic leg themselves. Ultimately, having a ubiquitous leg will help facilitate comparison between control strategies, potentially streamlining the field towards highly functional robotic prosthetic legs.

if i idly find more designs and projects like this endeavor, ill comment it and ping you

me and probably some other goats probably aren't the worst at designing custom components if modifications are needed.
