If all AWS sites fail but you got a gif to make into grayscale and don't want to use ffmpeg, where could you go? Well stupidcomputer.neocities.org of course! Just don't use too big gifs cause that stuff is all done in your memory; also the very dumb caching is on cause I forgo.

And here a sneak peek to what might be comming in the future (when I find time to continue on this fun little project)

A colortable and a console showing different rgb values, likely picked from that table.

The UI is still horrible but now there are new features!
Two new and totaly mysterious buttons. One of which is perfect for anyone who hates the vivid colors in their life, and the other for people who then want to keep that good old black and white look on their hard drive.

Nachdem jetzt Prinz Andrew seine Titel wohl abtritt tendiere ich eher zu letzterer These. Kann mir keiner erzählen dass die files den royals nicht den Bug aufschießen würden wenn die veröffentlicht werden.

Entweder das ist der größte nothing burger der jemals war und die potentzielle Strafe lohnt das leaken so gar nicht, oder es ist so ziemlich jede mächtige Person irgendwie drinn und es ist jedem wissenden klar, dass wenn jemand leaked der den nächsten morgen nicht mehr erlebt.

At least there are going to be some great films set in the US in the future which do some crazy stuff and can still end with "based on a true story"

We just live in a john carpenter movie now.

How often do I need to try and overload a function in TS before I remember that it does not work like that here? So far I am at four times.

Sometimes you just need encouraging todos.

Did I spend 15 minutes wrecking my brain about why and how there are memory leaks after some optimization, before realizing it was the fault of console.log? Yes, yes I did.

Who gets mad about the cool art they get on their feed from an awesome artist? Oh no, an artist made choices about what they want to draw; how could they?

Darth Vader was not one person, but really the codename of the mechanical suit that kept people alive and allowed them to channel their hate/pain into the force. Anakin "was" Darth Vader at some point, but not every time Vader is mentioned it refers to the same person.

Half of the newer accounts on here: "Christ is King. Snowflakes still have Trump as their president. I am here to make communists afraid again."

The next couple of T&S meetings will be fire with topics like how to deal with a wave of state backed trolls entering your platform.

Stupidcomputer @stupidcomputer.bsky.social · 3d

I mean yes you should vet whatever list you use for moderation. Idk if there are any helpful list creation/management tools atm, such that for example people you follow will be exempt from blocks.

Stupidcomputer @stupidcomputer.bsky.social · 3d

'Hello yes I am from Brazil and think Mr President Trump is God, we also should start a war with everyone who does not like our glorious leader. No I am no troll, these are my sincere beliefes; also in a month I will be peddling crypto scams'

Me when I am clearly neither a bot nor a troll... The account is less than an hour old btw. I expect that there will be a deluge of new troll accounts over the weekend. But because they are dumb, and blocklists exist on here, there is a good chance that they won't get any traction.

Stupidcomputer @stupidcomputer.bsky.social · 3d

And a lot of them are followed by very newly created accounts. It is a bit obvious for my taste what they want on here, but there is already a blocklist for the department accounts and I would bet that one for their followers will exist within the weekend.

Writing "Hello patriots" on a social media site is probably a humiliation ritual for the new intern, lmao.

Stupidcomputer @stupidcomputer.bsky.social · 3d

We had this shit when Vance tired to wiggle his wormy eyeliner face in here, and just like then the best thing you can do now is not engage and just block. They are here for propaganda and trolling, but unlike Twitter this site has good self moderation tools that you can and should use.

Stupidcomputer @stupidcomputer.bsky.social · 3d

Pro tip: Put them on a moderation list so you have the option to unblock them in ~3 years if you want to.

So there is a propaganda effort on the social media front comming from the US gov. The fresh bluesky accounts are about as partisan as you can expect, so blocking them and their followers seems to be an easy decision to make.
