  • I’m not sure why you think any digital device shouldn’t know what time it is. It’s not leaking any kind of personal information, just literal facts about reality.

    My challenge isn’t about NTP but about printer shouldn’t be able to communicate with the internet, as it has no need for it.

    You said: It’s common.

    Okay, cool. So is cancer.

    does not need to be able to talk to the internet at all, just to your router (or designated NTP server if you’re into that)

    Exactly! So why allow the printer to go past it!



  • Anything that connects to the network needs a synchronized clock with other devices it directly communicates with in order to make sure it’s not being subjected to timing attacks

    Please explain what kind of timing attacks because what you wrote doesn’t make sense in the context of a damn printer.

    Server? Sure. Printer? Why can it even access public internet?

    I would like to point your attention to the great debacle whether it is better to keep your prisoners locked away, breed them (if you get a good traits on a child brainwash it and let it join your settlement) and use their human skins to make those lovely human leather lamp shades which you sell back to their tribes and family - OR - to simply cut them up and sell them for parts, eat leftover human meat and grind their bones into a cheap bonemeal you can use to build walls.

    I also fondly remember Christian Pirates attacking my settlement with waves of children suicide bombers, dying from my boomalope stampede.



  • I use it for copy paste box - e.g. if I have a log somewhere that is in a shitty ui that doesn’t wrap, but requires me to scroll right, I copy paste that into a copilot window and press enter. Then I can read it (because it wraps), it sends a metric somewhere, I can ignore the output from the chat and do my job lol



  • You seem to be a very novice programmer.

    how do I setup my dev environment

    ? Google that? Use a devcontainer? I mean literally a question answered thousands of times.

    where should I start

    Setting up your dev environment. Then maybe create a few projects for you to test your package manager empirically?

    do I invent my own pkg format or do I use pre built packages like deb or rpm?

    Depends on what you want to do. I’m honestly not sure how to help you here? What kind of answer are you fishing for here?
