Re: CAPTCHA issues upon registration

How about a bot honeypot:
A question bots are filling for certain but with the note for humans to leave it open.

Re: CAPTCHA issues upon registration

I really dont like the google captchas stuff.
Its not always working as it should.
Google is known to track user which means if you include google frames they likely can track ros users.

Do you have an organisational Department?

Hei, I wonder if you have a department that spends its time completely with thinking about organisation topics as example: How can we organize the system to supply the required money for professionals to actively develop the project? How do we advertise to increase traffic and channel more volunteer...

Re: [CALL FOR ACTION] ReactOS Trading Plan

I looked everything up for curiosity: Etoro has an OVERWHELMING rating on trustpilot with 1 star.
Certainly a site to be careful about and from what i did read and in my estimation its unlikely to see currency coming from it...

Bugs as development target?

Hello, In the developing introduction https://reactos.org/developing#subsystems you write: Implementing the Win32 API provides a particular challenge to anyone hoping to get involved in this area, in that it has to mimic Windows versions of the Win32 API completely. This means not only implementing ...

Re: We urgently need a beta

Guess best would be to make something that helps to find from where those corruptions are originate and fix it.
A layer that logs filesystem access and can match corrupted sectors to where the corruption came from

Re: We urgently need a beta

The question is of course if thats all, or if your hd manufacturer also has his own malware The solution is easy. You would also install the ReactOS as your HDD's OS. Turtles all the way down. https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/6059do/how_to_run_linux_on_your_hard_disk_firmware/ Here the quote...

Re: We urgently need a beta

There is the little problem that windows is not the deepest malware but intel does ship with an extra subsystem that can take control over the computer means that unless ros does actively disable this the computer would itself still be malware. The question is of course if thats all, or if your hd m...

Re: Read only os pro and cons

yes this combined with a tool which helps the user to create installations and maintain them from this installation.

Note the original idea was a bit different but a normal installation of a live cd and some tools could get a similar effect

Re: Read only os pro and cons

Live cd will not work with my netbook or any other and there are cases when live cds not work. Plus if a file is corrupted it is easier to install the os on the hd than to copy the file from a cd. Also my other suggestion is a repair and install tool that runs out of the live cd and installs a read ...

Re: Read only os pro and cons

Haos might be right that it is out of scope. So i thought about it a while and in the end i think a normal live cd like ros installed protected on hd can do something very similar. So i suggest to install a vanilla version of ros which is readonly on the harddisk. This will be the rescue and maintai...
