So for now, it remains unblocked. But I have begun logging IPs of those using Windows 7.

Maybe I block w7 users in Singapore. But I only identified this in the first place bc of the odd Windows 7 UA. What % of other visitors are bots? Not all, but some? Most? I can't detect them well, evidently. I don't know who's running them. And I don't want to fingerprint humans to find out.

But for what? They aren't DDoSing me, but they are executing JavaScript and evading my (admittedly lax) bot mitigations. Maybe they are stealing my copyrighted content to train an AI model.

Over 90% of my Windows 7 "visitors" are Chrome users in Singapore with no referrer and 1280x1200 displays. These users *do* execute JS, but do not engage with the page. They appear to visit pages at random.

Unless my website is shockingly popular with Singaporean Windows 7 users, these are bots...

as a condition of funding, we were asked to affirm that we wouldn’t undertake any diversity, equity, and inclusion work, whether or not we used the government funds to do so. The PSF simply couldn’t agree to that statement,

Yeah iOS has been stable at least and day to day so is macOS but it fails catastrophically sometimes, last week I had to reinstall because spell check, Siri and continuity were all utterly broken

I do wonder about the interoperability request form. Why haven’t all these little cuts been fixed? Does it involve a lot of legalese so only big corps can afford it? Is the scope too small? Does Apple reject things overzealously? Surely if it was easy the indies would’ve requested everything by now

Like the now playing widget has a separate icon for AirPods. Only Apple Maps is able to stay open when you lock your phone. HDR in HEIC is completely undocumented so every photo editing app fucks it up. The list goes on and on.

The wireless headphones are back. I tried charging them once a day for the past week. Yesterday, I smacked it on my desk 5 times and plugged it in again and that little shit started charging

I suspect copilot is GitHub’s most profitable product. Anyway GitHub is a part of M$ CoreAI instead of DevOps now so there’s no going back

This is a very expensive setup 😳

idk i sorta like it needs a bit of a work but the glass is pretty.

Hitler came to power during poor economic conditions - when people are desperate, they will allow and/or participate in great atrocities. Trump is *creating* those conditions. What will someone allow if they think it means they can feed their family or keep a roof over their head?

Could you elaborate on this? My best understanding of ATProto is that it exchanges complexity in places for different complexities in others.

Yes I know that’s exactly my point. Retrofitting activitypub or hell atproto into an existing platform with years of effort behind them is a much more productive endeavor than creating a new platform from scratch

Both gitlab and forgejo have federation in varying capacities. They aren’t perfect, but as a holistic platform they’re light years ahead of tangled which is still closer to concept art than a fully functioning platform. If energy was given to these features they’d be great much faster than tangled

Perhaps the original poster should’ve swapped the two platforms.
