i am not gonna reverse engineer the logic of a f'ed up piece of early 2000s best engineering practices thank you very much. it has at least three different frameworks running and none of them is easy to reason about. it will take me months to go anywhere with this. but yeah, i am looking for a full browser engine that will run without having a whole gui running on the linux box. apparently phantomjs can do that despite what some snackoverflow user said (outdated answers  ).i am gonna try that when i go home. thanks ppl.

Lysidas posted:$ du -sh .local/share/Steam/ an important lesson about the importance of indulging tribal packaging customs for Linux software, to be remembered when someone says that different just-so packages are needed for Linux users to adopt. here we see them paying rare Linux-bux for something that really doesn't give a poo poo whether it uses the currently-fashionable LFS directory structure or whatever.

quote:We couldn’t use Sudo for a variety of reasons (lack of permissions, password, etc.), Yum was inaccessible because it requires root, and DNF wouldn’t work because of FS permission checks; however, PKcon worked flawlessly. In order to exploit this, all we need is a single vulnerability in any package in a repo. There are tons to choose from. If we type ‘PKCon’ or simply ‘man PKCon,’ we can find a list of repos in use and then pull a list of all bins and version numbers. I won’t provide one here because you don’t want everything handed to you. quote:This simple logic will mostly affect home users who run on an account with wheel. This includes most people, as they need Sudo. Gazpacho fucked around with this message at 19:45 on Dec 17, 2014 |

Shinku ABOOKEN posted:anybody got any experience making web scrapers in linux? "i don't want to install.." is the idiot motto of gentoo users. it's a stupid thing said by stupid people. the only distinguishable phrase in the endless gibbering of beardlords in stained t-shirts short of the kernel itself, browser engines are the most complicated software you use on a daily basis. go figure that they depend on other frameworks for abstractions. for example: gtk and qt you can most definitely run a browser completely headless (e.g. phantomjs) but I can about guarantee you will have to give up the 50 MB of disk space to install various gui libraries Notorious b.s.d. fucked around with this message at 19:43 on Dec 17, 2014 |

how long have single page applications been a thing anyway? because i'm guessing Chrome is a natural byproduct of Google having to run a full-fledged headless web browser in a cage in order to scrape all that poo poo. it certainly explains why it has such a strong emphasis on sandboxing. so it seems liek HotJava was the way to go all along and modern single page JavaScript applications are effectively a bastardized version of HotJava only with a lovely scripting language instead of the JVM. then again given Java applets' security track record that might be for the best.
