Anti-tamper.
I've seen them used to screw together toilet stalls in public bathrooms. Stops bored crackheads disassembling them.
Robertson on it's own, yes. As long as you use the proper size driver before you round out the square.
When you start carving out space for additional drivers though, the screw head becomes much weaker. The combo Robertson/Slotted/Philips screw heads will not standup to the same forces.
A good portion of these are 'security'/anti-tamper fasteners, which basically just means they're intentionally weirdly shapped and uncommon so people aren't likely to be carrying the screwdrivers to tamper with stuff.
Stops things like bored crackheads disassembling the toilet stall in a public bathroom.
who the fuck outside of Japan has a JIS driver lying around, then they strip real easy. Ask me how I know.
Funnily enough, I only know about these because I've got one of I Fix-It's screwdriver sets with 70 driver bits.
I was wondering why there were two sets of what looked like Philips and went looking for info.
6-lobe, star, and Torx are all names for the same somewhat common screw type. Torx is a trademarked brand name however.
Separately there's a 5-lobe screw called 'pentalobe' that's looks just like the 6-lobe but with, well..., 5 lobes. It was developed by Apple iirc, to keep people out of their products and make repair harder.
Philips/Square/Slotted (all three combined) is really common in North American electrical. Switches, outlets, breakers; all commonly use them for terminal screws.
Great for lower torque applications; you certainly wouldn't use them for like a deck/structural screw.
Philips are too easy to strip and Slotted screws are rage inducing trying to keep the driver aligned. :(
Not pictured here is also 'JIS' or Japanese Industry Standard screws.
They are very similar to Philips, but they're slightly deeper with sharper corners. They have less tendency to 'cam-out' and strip the screw head.
Supposedly the camming out thing is actually intentional design in Philips screws, to prevent screw guns from over torquing screws in early automotive/aircraft assembly lines; but there's not actually evidence to support that according to Wikipedia.
That will solve part of the problem, preventing downloads before an item has even released; but there's still lots of potential to grab unwanted torrents and leave the arrs asking for intervention when they can't import it.
Ideally the indexers would be filtering out this junk before users can even grab them, but failing that I think we've got a decent solution. Check out the edited OP
No, I don't. Haven't been on Reddit for 2.5 years though, so why would I.
Stop torturing yourself OP. Move on.

In the last couple of weeks, I've started getting this error ~1/5 times when I try to open one of my own locally hosted services.
I've never used ECH, and have always explicitly restricted nginx to TLS1.2 which doesn't support it. Why am I suddenly getting this, why is it randomly erroring, then working just fine again 2min later, and how can I prevent it altogether? Is anyone else experiencing this?
I'm primarily noticing it with Ombi. I'm also mainly using Chrome Android for this. But, checking just now; DuckDuckGo loads the page just fine everytime, and Firefox is flat out refusing to load it at all.
Firefox refuses to show the cert it claims is invalid, and 'accept and continue' just re-loads this error page. Chrome will show the cert; and it's the correct, valid cert from LE.
There's 20+ services going through the same nginx proxy, all using the same wildcard cert and identical ssl configurations; but Ombi is the only one suddenly giving me this issue regularly.
The vast majority of my services are accessed via lan/vpn; I don't need or want ECH, though I'd like to keep a basic https setup at least.
Solution: replace local A/AAAA records with a CNAME record pointing to a local only domain with its own local A/AAAA records. See below comments for clarification.
I've started noticing this icon more and more: usually on comments with no downvotes. What's it mean?
