@prologic@twtxt.net it would have been so much easy to run your own. I guess we all like to suffer every once and then, and this time is your turn. 😅

Today during class we built a small example showing #random vs. #PerlinNoise

@movq@www.uninformativ.de If by that you mean ISP(s)? No. so far most are hosting providers by the looks? 🧐

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Ahh that would be awesome!!! I’d also somehow need read access to logs so i can figure shit out on my own 🧐

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Haha! 😂 Welcome back 🙌

@aelaraji@aelaraji.com Tell me more? How does this work?

@prologic@twtxt.net I’d say give crowdsec a try but I know for sure you prefer your own WAF … 😅

This caveman is getting too old for the Internet… 😅 It took me 1 hrs and 50 mins to catch up with what’s been going on my feed.

@prologic@twtxt.net Let me know if you still need an account for testing. My tin-can bandwidth is slow AF but usable if you don’t mind the speed.

Oh fuck me! I had basically turned off the route to git.mills.io last night and went ot bed at ~2AM after unsuccessfully trying to control the attacks (bad bots) that were behaving like a DDoS attack. Tried to re-enable the route this monring and *BOOM, they’re back! As-if they never stopped?! what da actual fuq?! Anyone have any clever ideas of what I can do here to allows normal users, like you nice folk and block ths obnoxious traffic?!

Pod is* back up online! Woohooo!! 🥳 (*has been for days)

@zvava@twtxt.net I am waiting for that v1, so that I can start using it. 🙏🏻

since there are quite literally no note taking apps that work for me, i’ve began writing my own! to get started real quick i adapted the core part of bbycll’s backend and it works so nicely — which speaks volumes to the quality of the code! should really break it out into a custom framework. i’m also realizing how easy it would be to get bbycll v1 ready…but this is probably more important since it’ll allow me to get my life in order ^^’

@iolfree@tilde.club @movq@www.uninformativ.de So true! Good read, thanks for recommending. :-)

@iolfree@tilde.club They’re not wrong, are they? 😅

funny article gopher://sdf.org/0/users/ictia/phlog/2025-11-23-i-am-done-with-the-web.txt

@movq@www.uninformativ.de I just skip all those merchants who only accept PayPal or credit card.

A pensar em fazer um meme sobre como ativista de software livre revela o seu absoluto pior quando é hora de falar do Gimp

É um quase-ódio tão generalizado, em que a apologia das ferramentas que nos dão controlo total (por vezes em detrimento da user-friendliness) é mandada borda fora

zero piedade pelo esforço de voluntários, e sempre com alegações da treta sobre as supostas necessidades dos profissionais que 99% das vezes são simplesmente fábulas ou features que o Gimp até já suporta

fico doente com isto

@prologic@twtxt.net Do these IPs belong to hosting providers or to providers of private internet connections? The latter is what I’m seeing on my server …

Fark me again with the bots. This time DDoS-style crawling from hundreds of IPs and dozens of ASN(s) wtf?!
I’ve had to disale the Ingress to my Git instance for the time being, i need to sleep and I can’t fight this :/

@prologic@twtxt.net We have a bit of a vendor lock-in here in Germany: PayPal is sometimes the only non-shady option to pay for something. ☹️

AI systems being egregiously resource intensive is not a side effect — it’s the point.

And someone commented on that with:

I’m fascinated by the take about the resource usage being an advantage to the AI bros.

They’ve created software that cannot (practically) be replicated as open source software / free software, because there is no community of people with sufficient hardware / data sets. It will inherently always be a centralized technology.

Fascinating and scary.

@bender@twtxt.net Just a donations thiny I knew about from years ago that I never setup properly. Now an acceptable form of donation on my prologic.dev site 👌 (if anyone ever does that is!)

@prologic@twtxt.net what’s that?

Bye bye PayPal 👋 Hello LibrePay 👋

When I try to login to PayPal I now see:

Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker

Here’s the thing. PayPal takes fees from transactions and payments received and sent.

I have very right not have ads shoved in my face for something that isn’t actually free in the first place and costs money to use. If PayPal would like to continue to piss off folks me like, then I’ll happily close my PayPal account and go somewhere else that doesn’t shove ads in my face and consume 30-40% of my Internet bandwidth on useless garbage/crap.

#PayPal #Ads

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe Haha 🤣 Nice typo there!

@shinyoukai@neko.laidback.moe I’m mostly against it because it forces Javascript™ on the client(s) at a blanket level. Doing “Proof-of-Work” explicitly IMO is fine™, but not at an Ingress/Edge level IMO – Which is why I haven’t adopted it myself.

One day I’ll like to elaborate why I’m against the usage of Anubis (and its derivatives) for the rampant crawlers

@yarn_police@twtxt.net good thing we got law and order around here. And I mean, literally! 😅
