590TypeScript and Windows 11 apologist. Hated cars before it was cool. Not a fan of libertarians.
I know that I know nothing.
All of my posts are official government opinions and those of your employer.
@phnt hopefully I do not need that but when the Chinese find out they will probably murder my server

@zero 100% agree and I have always said that, which if the admin doesn't like they can configure it to be something else which no one seemed to notice (another popular anti-scraper tool, go-away, also does that)

I am going to test something.
For the next week, I am going to entirely disable Anubis on git.froth.zone and see what happens. It could be nothing or I could get murdered by scrapers again, who knows.
Only one way to find out, which I just did by making gfz directly connect to caddy and not anubis

@grumbulon @cassidyclown @RustyCrab something might be broken on the froth end but I am too stupid and lazy to figure it out

Everyone who disagrees with my opinions is a corporate shill

The new writefreely update adds an option where I can now beam my yapping directly into your email inbox if you subscribe, but in typical writefreely fashion it's kind of kludgy and only has a subscribe button on the main list page I should probably add it to the bottom of posts

@cassidyclown @RustyCrab @collappsar @mrsaturday if Google cared about pure profitablity they'd immediately stop burning money at the AI altar since there is next to 0 revenue in it, their risk analysis is "what's the bare minimum we can do to make line go up" and nowadays that's AI capex

@mischievoustomato @bajax that is a surprisingly fair point coming from you (not an insult I swear) and I agree that worrying about things far beyond your control is usually a pointless fight, but just blatantly not feeling bad at all for something terrible happen to someone else just feels soulless to me I guess
